The use of
regular, professional pest control can eliminate these types of problems &
find others before they become severe!
DID
YOU KNOW THAT?
TERMITES:
No home including those made of brick or stone is immune to termite attack.
Furniture, books, decorations, etc. are subject to attack even when the
building is made of concrete. Even poured concrete structures can develop
hairline cracks (as small as 1/64 of an inch) which allow termite entry. Over
2,000,000 homes will be infested with termites this year alone causing
over 5 billion in damages.
COCHROACHES:
Disease producing organisms have been found on cochroaches. Gastroenteritis is
the principal disease transmitted by cochroaches, including food poisoning,
dysentery & other illnesses. Organisms carrying these diseases are carried
on the legs & bodies of cochroaches & are deposited on food &
utensils as cochroaches forage. Cochroach excrement & cast skins also
contain a number of allergens to which many people exhibit allergic responses
such as skin rashes, watery eyes & sneezing. For some very allergic people
& those who have asthma or other lung diseases these allergic attacks to
cochroach allergens can be very serious.
CARPENTER
ANTS: Carpenter ants can attack wood anywhere in your home.
They prefer moist wood, but will tunnel into dry wood & even styrofoam
insulation in some situations. A Carpenter ant problem that is ignored can lead
to significant damage.
WASPS &
BEES: Wasps & bees can be a danger to both people &
pets with their painful stings. Stings can trigger severe allergic reactions in
some people. At the first sign of a nest contact us & we can eliminate it
before someone gets stung. THIS IS A NOT A JOB FOR
AMATEURS-BE SAFE & LEAVE THIS TO THE PROFESSIONALS!
FLEAS:
The adult flea is an external parasite of people, dogs, cats & wild
animals, responsible in centuries past for plagues that killed millions of
people. The flea is now a far less serious threat, but still troubling with
their annoying bites & their ability to get deep into carpets, making
treatment by homeowners very difficult.
RODENTS
(Mice & Rats): Rodents soil our indoor environments with
urine & feces. Rodents contaminate our food supply with potentially harmful
germs & bacteria causing over a billion dollars in losses in contaminated
food supplies worldwide each year. Rodents can be quite destructive. Rodents
front teeth continue to grow throughout their lifetime. Because of their habit
of gnawing they can damage electric lines, baseboards, stored items in
basements, sheds, garages, etc.
