Insects are generally beneficial for the environment and don’t cause problems for people. Sometimes, however, they can begin making trouble in a home or yard, turning them into pests. When that happens, professional Insect Extermination Services can get rid of them quickly. Here are some of the insects that often become pests.
Termites
Due to causing over one billion dollars in damage every year, termites are one of the most destructive of all insects. In their search for cellulose to eat, they devour the wood that contains it, and since they live in colonies, they have many hungry mouths to feed. The combined damage of all these termites can be substantial, and if they are not stopped quickly, the problem will keep getting worse. A home examination from pest control experts can make sure that no termite infestation has begun.
Fleas
When fleas appear on a property, they are most commonly found in the yard, where they may bother pets or people who are doing yard work. These insects can cause trouble indoors as well, if they can find a way inside, such as by riding on a pet. Once fleas have found a host, they will bite and leave bumps that itch. In addition to the pain and annoyance they cause, fleas also carry diseases. Having them exterminated will protect both pets and people.
Bed Bugs
Just the mention of bed bugs makes many people shudder. Although bed bugs do not spread diseases to people, they can cause many other problems. Sometimes they get into a home by riding in the luggage of someone who just returned from a trip. They are known for being troublesome insects that infest areas close to where people will be sleeping. Some of their favorite hiding places are behind headboards, beneath furniture near a bed, or even under bed sheets. When someone goes to sleep in the bed, the bed bugs will come out and bite. The bites often leave itchy red marks. The presence of bed bugs can make it very difficult to sleep. Hiring a pest control service is the quickest way to eliminate them.
