Pest Control in Olney MD

Miche Pest Control provides extermination services that get rid of ants, spiders, cockroaches, and more from homes and businesses in Olney MD. We get rid of pests fast by using a combination of highly effective treatment methods, using the best products available for the specific pests that you're seeing. Our most popular plan in Olney is our quarterly pest control service. Included in each quarterly service from Miche Pest Control:

• Spider Web Removal

• Wasp & Hornet Nest Removal

• 4 to 6 Foot Barrier Spray For Crawling Insects

• 10 Foot Granular Barrier To Push Bugs Away From The Home

• Detailed Crack & Crevice Treatments

• Inside Treatment As Needed

This service is designed to be thorough enough on the outside that you shouldn't need inside treatment, but the inside is always included when needed and/or requested. We use products that are registered with the EPA, and labeled for use in and around homes, hospitals, day cares, and pet kennels. The first service gets rid of any current pest issues, and immediately starts working to keep pests from coming back after they've been eliminated. A few months later, once the products break down and egg sacs start hatching, the pests usually come back - that's why we do four services per year, and more if you need. If you're having issues with covered pests in between regular services, just let us know and as needed, we'll go back out in between services at no extra cost.

There are nearly 1,000 individual species of ants found throughout the United States. Thankfully, only a few species cause issues in and around Olney properties. They live in large colonies that can contain thousands or even hundreds of thousands of ants. In our area, the most common species of ants are pavement ants, carpenter ants, and odorous house ants.

Pavement ants: Adult pavement ants range in color from brown to black. But the easiest way to identify pavement ants is where they build their nests. These small pests prefer to build their nests in the cracks of sidewalks, pathways, and pavement.

Carpenter ants: Carpenter ants are the largest species of ants found in our area and range in color between red, black, yellowish, or a mixture of those colors. The most notable fact about carpenter ants is that they often build their nests in the structural wood of homes, leading to costly damage.

Odorous house ants: Odorous house ants are small, black ants that get their name from the foul smell they emit when crushed. Many people describe this odor as smelling like rotten coconuts.

The best way to protect your Olney MD property from ants and other common pests is with a little help from Miche Pest Control. Reach out to us today to learn more about our ant control process.

Miche Pest Control provides rodent control services for mice, rats, and voles in Olney Maryland. We get rid of rodents fast by using a combination of trapping, entry point exclusion, and outside bait stations. Included in your first rodent control service from Miche Pest Control:

• Entry Point Inspection
• Sealing Rodent Entry Points
• Trapping Mice & Rats Inside
• Tamper-Resistant Bait Stations Outside

We use tamper-resistant bait stations combined with products that are registered with the EPA, and labeled for use in and around homes, day cares, and pet kennels. The first service gets rid of any existing rats, mice, or voles, and immediately starts working to keep rodents from coming back after they've been eliminated. A couple months later, once the bait starts to deteriorate or run out and rodent populations start rebounding, mice and rats usually come back - that's why we do six services per year, and more if you need. If you're having issues with rodents in between regular services, just let us know and as needed, we'll go back out in between services at no extra cost.

According to Chapter 39 of the Montgomery County Code, "It shall be unlawful for anyone to allow their property to be infested with rats or to be in such condition as to contribute to an existing or potential rat infestation." Rat control is important, because rats are known carriers of disease; when they are in close proximity to humans, they are a public health concern. They can damage structures and personal items, potentially causing electrical fires by chewing on wires, and are known to contaminate food supplies. The Health Department of Montgomery County MD lists 4 common signs of rats in Olney MD:

1. Burrows - Rats create holes in the ground, generally between 2 and 4 inches in diameter.
2. Droppings - Rats have fecal droppings that are rounded to tapered in shape on each end. These droppings are between 3/8 and 3/4 inches long, and 1/4 inch across.
3. Runways - Rats often frequent the same travel areas, creating worn paths in vegetation, close to walls, fences, and walkways as they travel from their nest to the food source(s).
4. Tracks - Rats will sometimes leave footprints in mud, dust, fresh dirt, or snow. Rat footprints are approximately 1/2 inch across, with 5 toes visible in their prints.

Rats only need a half inch opening to gain entry into a home or another structure. For professional rodent control services, give us a call today!

Rodents are among the most common household pests. Mice and rats often invade Olney, MD properties while foraging for food. Common species of rodents in our area include Norway rats, house mice, field mice, voles, and deer mice. These furry mammals can invade your home through small gaps and crevices in your foundation, making them difficult pests to prevent. Though rodents might not look like much or a threat, once they get into your residential property, they can cause several concerns for homeowners. The most common issues rodents cause when they invade include:

• Damaging your property - Rodents are characterized by their continuously-growing front incisors. To wear their teeth down, invading rodents won’t hesitate to chew on your personal belongings, wires, pipes, furniture, structural beams, and drywall.

• Spreading dangerous diseases - Rodents spread a wide variety of bacteria that can lead to diseases such as salmonella, plague, hantavirus, and rat-bite fever.

• Threatening the safety of your family - Rodents are wild animals that may bite or scratch if they feel threatened. Rodent infestations require professional attention.

If rodents are living in or around your Olney property, you should always contact the professionals here at Miche Pest Control right away. Our rodent control services include baiting, trapping, and exclusion work, based on your needs. Contact us today for more details about our rodent control options.

Olney is a census-designated place and an unincorporated area in Montgomery County, Maryland. It is located in the north-central part of Montgomery County, twenty miles north of Washington DC. As an unincorporated area, Olney's boundaries are not officially defined. Olney's town center sits at the intersection of state route 97 (Georgia Avenue) and route 108 (Olney-Laytonsville Road). The town, larger than any other in the neighboring areas, lies south of Brookeville, west of Sandy Spring, east-northeast of Gaithersburg, north-northeast of Rockville, and north of Aspen Hill.

Olney was largely agricultural until the 1960s, when growth of Washington, DC's suburbs led to its conversion into a mostly residential area. In 2013 it was ranked #22 in Money magazine's "top-earning towns" edition of "America's Best Places to Live." In 2007, Olney ranked #17 on Money magazine's list of the 100 best places to live in the US.

Playgrounds, playing fields and courts are available throughout Olney and the surrounding area. Many of the parks are public and some belong to homeowners or other private associations. Public parks include Olney Manor Park (featuring the Olney Swim Center, a year-round indoor public pool), Southeast Olney Park, Longwood Park, Cherrywood Park, Bowie Mill Park, and the OBGC Park at Freeman Fields. Olney is also home to a private country club and a golf driving range.
