Ant Exterminators

Our professional ant exterminators employ a variety of methods to effectively get rid of ants, depending on the type of ant species and the severity of the infestation. Here are some of the methods commonly used by our ant exterminators:

  • Inspection: The first step is to conduct a thorough inspection of the property to identify the ant species, locate nesting sites, and assess the extent of the infestation. This information informs the treatment plan.
  • Identification: Our ant exterminators are trained to identify the specific ant species involved. Different species may require different control strategies.
  • Baiting: Baiting is a common method where our ant exterminators place ant bait stations containing attractive but toxic substances near foraging trails. The ants carry the bait back to the nest, effectively eliminating the entire colony.
  • Residual Insecticides: Our ant exterminators may apply residual insecticides as barriers around entry points, such as windows, doors, and cracks. These chemicals are designed to kill foraging ants on contact and can provide long-lasting protection.
  • Dusts: Insecticidal dusts are used to treat voids and wall voids where ants may be nesting. The dust adheres to the ants and is carried back into the colony, affecting the entire population.
  • Non-Repellent Insecticides: These insecticides are used in situations where it's critical not to repel ants away from the treated area but instead allow them to carry the insecticide back to the nest.
  • Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs): IGRs disrupt the ant's life cycle and reproduction. They are particularly useful for long-term control and preventing future infestations.
  • Destruction of Nests: Our ant exterminators will locate and directly treat or destroy ant nests if possible. This approach is particularly effective for species that nest indoors.
  • Caulking and Sealing: To prevent future infestations, our ant exterminators may recommend sealing entry points and gaps through which ants are gaining access to your property.
  • Environmental Modifications: Our ant exterminators may advise on environmental changes, such as addressing moisture issues, cleaning up food debris, and maintaining a clean environment to discourage ant activity.
  • Traps: In some cases, ant traps may be used to capture and monitor ant activity, aiding in the identification of ant species and tracking the effectiveness of control measures.
  • Education: Our ant exterminators often provide clients with information on ant behavior, prevention techniques, and hygiene practices to minimize the risk of future infestations.
  • Follow-Up: Ongoing monitoring and follow-up visits may be scheduled as necessary, to ensure that the infestation is completely resolved and to address any new ant activity.

The choice of method or combination of methods depends on the specific circumstances of the infestation and the ant species involved. Our professional ant exterminators use their expertise to select the most appropriate and effective approach, aiming to eliminate the ant colony and prevent future incursions.

Bed Bug Exterminators

Our bed bug exterminators employ a comprehensive and systematic approach to effectively get rid of bed bugs. Bed bug infestations can be challenging, and various methods are often combined for the best results. Here are some of the methods commonly used by our professional bed bug exterminators:

  • Inspection: The first step is a thorough inspection to identify the extent of the infestation, locate bed bug hiding spots, and determine the best treatment approach.
  • Identification: Confirming the presence of bed bugs and their life stages is essential for effective treatment.
  • Chemical Treatments: Our bed bug exterminators may use a variety of chemical treatments, such as residual insecticides, contact sprays, and dusts. These are applied to known hiding spots, cracks, crevices, and areas where bed bugs are likely to travel.
  • Steam Treatment: Steam is an effective, non-chemical method that our exterminators may use to kill bed bugs and their eggs on contact. It's safe for use on a wide variety of surfaces.
  • Vacuuming: High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuums are used to physically remove bed bugs, their eggs, and other debris from surfaces and crevices.
  • Mattress and Box Spring Encasements: Bed bug-proof encasements may be used to trap any remaining bed bugs inside mattresses and box springs, preventing them from escaping or feeding.
  • Laundering and Heat-Drying: Our exterminators may recommend laundering and heat-drying bedding, linens, and clothing to eliminate bed bugs that may be present.
  • Sealing and Caulking: Cracks and crevices, as well as potential entry points for bed bugs, are sealed and caulked to prevent future infestations.
  • Fumigation: Fumigation with specialized gases may be considered for severe, hard-to-treat infestations in certain situations.
  • Education: Our exterminators provide clients with information on bed bug prevention, early detection, and avoidance practices.
  • Follow-Up: Multiple visits and inspections are often necessary to ensure that the infestation is fully eliminated. Our exterminators will monitor for any signs of renewed bed bug activity.
  • Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Our bed bug exterminators typically employ an IPM approach that combines various methods and emphasizes prevention as a key component of long-term bed bug control.

The choice of method or combination of methods depends on the specific circumstances of the infestation, the size and type of property, and client preferences. Our bed bug exterminators use their expertise to select the most appropriate and effective approach with the primary goal of eliminating bed bugs and preventing their recurrence. This often involves a combination of methods to ensure all bed bugs and their eggs are eradicated.

Mice Exterminators

Our mouse exterminators employ a range of methods to effectively get rid of mice, depending on the severity of the infestation, the type of structure involved, and safety considerations. Here's are some of the methods commonly used by our mouse exterminators:

  • Inspection: The first step is to conduct a thorough inspection to determine the extent of the infestation, identify entry points, and assess nesting areas.
  • Identification: Our mouse exterminators identify the specific species of mice involved, typically either house mice or field mice, as this can influence the control methods used.
  • Trapping: Mousetraps, such as snap traps or glue boards, are strategically placed in areas with mouse activity. Snap traps are designed to kill mice instantly, while glue boards capture them. Our exterminators check and reset traps as needed.
  • Baiting: Bait stations with toxic bait are placed in areas frequented by mice. The bait attracts the mice, which consume it and then return to their nests, effectively eliminating the colony. These bait stations are tamper-resistant to prevent access by children or pets.
  • Sealing Entry Points: Our exterminators identify and seal entry points that mice use to gain access to the property. This prevents new mice from entering and contains the infestation.
  • Environmental Modifications: Recommendations may be made to address conditions that attract mice, such as eliminating food sources, removing clutter, and maintaining cleanliness.
  • Trapping and Removal: In some cases, live traps are used to capture mice without killing them. These traps are checked regularly, and the captured mice are relocated to a suitable location far from the property.
  • Exclusion: Exclusion involves sealing and reinforcing entry points using materials such as steel wool, caulk, or wire mesh to prevent mice from re-entering.
  • Sanitation Measures: Our exterminators may advise on maintaining proper sanitation, as cleanliness can deter mice by reducing available food and water sources.
  • Rodenticides: In situations where traps and other methods are less effective or when safety permits, rodenticides may be used as a last resort. These toxic baits can be highly effective but must be applied carefully to prevent harm to non-target animals.
  • Education: Our mouse exterminators often provide clients with information on mouse behavior, prevention techniques, and hygiene practices to minimize the risk of future infestations.
  • Follow-Up: Ongoing monitoring and follow-up visits are scheduled to ensure the infestation is fully resolved and to address any new mouse activity.
  • Structural Repairs: In cases where mice have caused structural damage, our exterminators may recommend or perform necessary repairs.
  • Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Our exterminators often employ IPM strategies, which combine multiple methods for sustainable and effective mouse control. This approach prioritizes prevention and minimizes reliance on chemicals.

The choice of method or combination of methods depends on the specific circumstances of the infestation, safety considerations, and client preferences. Our professional mouse exterminators use their expertise to select the most appropriate and effective approach, with the primary goal of eliminating the mouse infestation and preventing its recurrence.

Our professional rodent exterminators commonly deal with several types of rodents, each with its own unique challenges. The most common types of rodents that our exterminators are called upon to get rid of include:

  • House Mice (Mus musculus): House mice are a frequent household nuisance, known for their ability to reproduce rapidly and cause property damage.
  • Norway Rats (Rattus norvegicus): Larger than mice, Norway rats are often found in urban and suburban areas. They are capable of causing structural damage and are carriers of diseases.
  • Roof Rats (Rattus rattus): Also known as black rats, roof rats are excellent climbers and are often found in attics and high places. They can transmit diseases and cause damage to buildings.
  • Field Mice (Apodemus spp.): Outdoor-dwelling field mice can sometimes enter buildings seeking shelter and food, causing issues for homeowners.
  • Voles (Microtus spp.): Voles are small, burrowing rodents that can damage lawns and gardens by creating tunnels and consuming plant roots.
  • Gophers (Thomomys spp.): Gophers are known for their extensive burrow systems, which can damage lawns and gardens. They are common pests in agricultural and suburban areas.
  • Squirrels (Sciuridae family): While not always considered pests, squirrels can become a nuisance when they enter homes and attics, causing damage and contamination.
  • Chipmunks (Tamias spp.): Chipmunks can dig tunnels and create holes in gardens and yards, causing aesthetic and structural damage.
