Conquering Household Pests in Homes

Everyone has had the experience of encountering an unwanted pest in their home, whether it be noticing an unexpected bed bug or catching the glimpse of a mouse scurrying across the floor. Once it happens, you'll probably be asking yourself what your options are for ridding your home of these undesirable occupants. This is where IPM Pest & Termite Control can assist you.

The seasons can dictate which pests may be more prevalent in your household. Swarm termites and ants are more commonly seen in March through July/August. Mosquitoes become more of an issue April through September. Summer, specifically June, brings out the house centipedes. Late June through September also brings out spiders. Moles may appear in your yard more often in the fall, and mice may be noticed more often October through February.

However, bed bugs can be an issue at any time of the year, so it is important to always keep an eye out for them. Fortunately, the experts at IPM Pest & Termite Control are always ready to combat the problem.

These tiny parasitic insects have the ability to infest your entire house from just a single male and female being present. These bugs are approximately the size of an apple seed and are reddish-brown in color. Unfortunately, you can potentially pick these pests up from any location, for example, stores or hotels, so if you suspect that your house may have become their new home contact us today for an evaluation.

German cockroaches are another noticeable issue in many households. These can also be found year-round, typically in bathrooms or kitchens because these insects like to live in warm environments where moisture can be found. A good indication that these may be present are small peppery-looking spots in certain areas. We are well-equipped for taking care of this issue and returning your home to its normal harmonious state.

We also offer mice management services. We utilize snap traps to achieve the greatest results in eradicating your home from these tricky pests. These traps may be put into protective boxes or placed out of the way so that they remain unnoticed while they do their job.

If you believe you and your family could benefit from any of these services, we'd love to hear from you. It is necessary for us to conduct an inspection before we can successfully determine the issue. Once that occurs, we will be able to give you ideas of how to remedy the problem. We also offer preventative measures to curb issues before they even begin, such as sealing potential entry holes and offering thorough education about how to prevent any other issues.
