Rodents are common household pests that invade residential properties while searching for sources of food, water, and shelter. Unfortunately, rodents cause many problems when they invade Ivins homes, including property damage and the spread of disease. To prevent rodents from invading your Ivins home, keep the following rodent prevention tips in mind.

• Cut thick shrubs and overhanging tree limbs away from your exterior walls and roofline.

• Keep tight-fitting lids on your trash cans and store them away from the perimeter of your property.

• Store your food items in airtight containers and avoid leaving leftovers out on counters and tables.

• Inspect your foundation and exterior walls for gaps and seal them with caulk or steel wool as needed.

If rodents invade your Ivins property, you should always contact the professionals here at Miche Pest Control right away. We have the experience needed to eliminate your rodent problems once and for all.

Spiders are a type of predatory arachnids that use venom to paralyze their prey and ward off unwanted threats. Some of the spiders that live in our area include wolf spiders, hobo spiders, yellow sac spiders, and black widow spiders. Thankfully, most household spiders are nothing more than a nuisance. Black widow spiders are the most dangerous spiders in our area, which means it’s important to learn how to identify them. Black widow spiders have shiny black bodies with reddish or orange markings on the bottom of their abdomens. This marking is often shaped like an hourglass, but may also appear as one or two separate dots. Bites from black widow spiders can cause serious health issues for humans.

Symptoms of a black widow bite include muscle spasms, restlessness, chest pain, chills, headache, and fever. Spiders are typically outdoor pests, but they will move into Ivins homes to catch their insect prey. Unfortunately, if you’re experiencing problems with spiders in your home, it’s likely that you already have an insect infestation on your hands.

Defend your Ivins property from spiders, insects, and other pests by partnering with the skilled technicians here at Miche Pest Control. We’re ready to give your home or business the complete protection it needs.

Ants are social creatures and, unfortunately, like to gather and socialize in our homes. However, when they enter our homes, it’s not for nothing. Ten times out of ten, our homes and yards are attracting them.

Ants have an impeccable sense of smell. So the scent of everything from pet food and food odors from garbage cans to gardens and outdoor eating areas will have ants swarming to your home. Once they find the food source in and around your home, they’ll leave a pheromone trail to alert their other colony members of the food source. 

Whether you’re a homeowner or renter, as long as you continue to provide viable food sources for ants, they will keep returning and keep nesting, making them even hard to get rid of if left untreated.

As ant experts, we at Miche Pest Control perform full interior and exterior treatments of your home. As the exterior is how ants enter your home, we will thoroughly apply a foundation treatment and additional exterior treatments to keep those pesky ants out.

After our treatment, you’ll want to take preventive measures to seal any gaps or openings on the exterior of your home, especially around the foundation and around doors and windows. Ideally, addressing any openings, big or small, will go a very long way in keeping ants from penetrating the interiors of your home.

Did you know there are 55 different species of cockroaches in the US? Fortunately, here in Ivins, you only have to worry about four:

• American cockroach

• German cockroach

• Oriental cockroach

• Brown-banded cockroach

Cockroaches are vectors of diseases, spreading seven kinds of human pathogens, six types of parasitic worms, and 33 different kinds of bacteria. Found in unsanitary areas like dumpsters and sewers, they pick up these diseases and bacteria and contaminate everything they touch. Additionally, every time a cockroach molts, their shed skin triggers allergies and asthma in specific individuals.

To prevent these harmful pests from entering your home, you must implement these preventive measures around your home.

1. Always secure lids on trash cans tightly. 

2. Eliminate food or food debris from eating areas inside or outside your home.

3. Pick up uneaten pet food, wash dirty dishes, and properly store leftover food in the fridge.

4. Address excessive moisture issues in your home by using dehumidifiers, fixing leaky pipes, and adequately ventilating crawlspaces and basements.

5. Vacuum, sweep, and mop regularly, wipe down and sanitize counters, and only eat in designated food areas of your home.

These preventive measures will work wonders in keeping cockroaches away from your home, but they’ll prove ineffective without professional cockroach removal services. Call Miche Pest Control to get your treatments started immediately.

The sheer thought of scorpions will make anyone’s skin crawl, so to actually find them on your property can be your worst nightmare! Fortunately, there’s only one in the Ivins area to worry about, the Arizona bark scorpion. However, despite only having to worry about one species, this species has the most potent venom, which can cause severe reactions with a sting in individuals who are elderly, have weakened immune systems, or children.

Because scorpions possess such venomous stings, it’s imperative that you not try to remove them from your property on your own. The best solution is to contact your local pest control company.

At Miche Pest Control, we’ll give you three good reasons why we’re the only effective solution to rid you of your scorpion problem in your home:

1. We have the proper tools, gear, products, and equipment to safely and effectively remove scorpions.

2. Scorpions are in your house for food, which means you likely have another pest infestation hiding somewhere in your home. With our thorough inspection, we’ll be able to detect other pest activity in your home.

3. Scorpions have high moisture needs, so they may also be in your home because your home has moisture issues like a leaking faucet or even an overwatered lawn. With our inspection, we’ll be able to detect that as well.

Overall, the best way to get rid of scorpions in your home is with our scorpion removal services. Once we’ve treated your home, you can implement preventive measures like sealing any cracks or openings in your home’s exterior and fixing any moisture-related issues with a local plumber.

When you go to a pet store and see mice in their cute little cages, you think, ‘oh, how cute!’ The moment one of those ‘cute’ little critters enters your home unannounced, you’ll be doing a crazy dance on your kitchen table or countertop!

Whether you realize it or not, there is a difference in the species. Mice are part of the Mus musculus species, also known as fancy mice. Some of the mice deemed pests include the Norway rat, the roof rat, house mice, and field mice, which are most prominent in the Ivins area.

All species of these mice are ‘wild,’ but many have learned to adapt to being around humans. However, despite these pests adapting to human environments, they’re still a significant threat to the health and safety of your home and family (excluding the fancy mice found in pet stores).

From the moment mice enter your yard, their mission is to seek food, shelter, and water, but in the process, they wreak havoc on your home. Mice have the potential to bring parasites like fleas and ticks into your yard; they will gnaw through walls, wiring, and pipes to not only gain entry into your home but also to shave their ever-growing teeth. Lastly, they also have the potential to spread harmful diseases and bacteria like ringworm and salmonellosis.

The only way to get rid of mice on your Ivins property is with professional rodent control services, and at Miche Pest Control, we have everything to do just that. Once we’ve properly inspected and treated your home, you can then engage in preventive measures like sealing any openings in your home’s exterior or adding perimeter fencing to keep mice from entering your yard altogether.
