Spiders are some of the most feared pests that come into our homes. While they may be unwelcome, people want to know just how dangerous they are, too. The truth is, most spiders that you come across in your home are harmless, although many can bite. However, there are a couple of spiders in the areas you do need to worry about.

Black widows are considered to be the most dangerous spider in the country. You can identify them by their black bodies and the red hourglass-like shape on the abdomens of the females. Although the males do not feature this identifiable marking, they also do not bite. If you are bitten by a black widow, be sure to seek medical attention immediately.

Brown recluses are considered to be the second most dangerous spider in the country. They have light-brown bodies with a dark violin-like shape on their backs. If you are bitten by a brown recluse, seek medical attention right away.

No matter which species of spider you are dealing with, the pest professionals here at Miche Pest Control are here to help with all of your spider control needs. Give us a call today to learn more.

Rodents are common home-invaders that bring disease and destruction along with them. As such, you need to know the steps you can take to keep them out of your home, including sealing off entry points and removing factors that attract them. To accomplish these, you need to:

1) Store food in airtight containers or the fridge. 2) Wipe up spills from counters and floors immediately. 3) Store trash in bins with tight-fitting lids and take out the trash regularly.  4) Install door sweeps under exterior doors. 5) Cover holes around your home’s exterior such as around vents, pipes, and utility lines.

Not only are mice unsanitary intruders that pose a real threat to your health and well-being, but they can also cause serious structural damage, compromising your safety. In order to avoid an infestation of mice, there are some preventative measures you can implement around your space.

Here’s the trick to effective mouse control in Santa Clara:

• Block of entry and access points.

• Fix leaky pipes and faulty faucets. 

• Keep tree trimmings and woodpiles away from the foundation perimeter.

• Maintain cleanliness and eliminate clutter around the property.

• Promptly wipe up any spills and crumbs. 

• Reduce excess moisture throughout the home.

• Store food and belongings in gnaw-proof containers.

These preventative tips are certainly helpful. However, none of them are entirely effective on their own. The most effective way to guard your home against mice is to rely on a team of certified pest professionals. Contact Miche Pest Control today to secure year-round coverage from mice.

There are so many different ant species here in Utah, and one of the common species we deal with is odorous house ants. Obviously, ants are unwelcome intruders in our homes, but what makes these ants dangerous? Are odorous house ants a threat to Santa Clara homes?

The good news is that odorous house ants do not sting or bite. However, they are known for the putrid odor they emit. This smell is a way for them to indicate to the other members of their colony that they’ve found a food source. Not only that, but they smell like rotten coconuts when they are crushed.

Odorous house ant nests are often found outside in the soil, under rocks, or other objects in the yard. When food becomes scarce in their colony, they seek alternate food sources inside of your home. Odorous house ants can grow their colonies to as large as 100,000 workers and multiple queens.

If you want to protect your home from an ant infestation, the best thing to do is reach out to the pest professionals. Here at Miche Pest Control, we are familiar with how to deal with odorous house ants, and we guarantee results you can depend on. Call today to get started.

Cockroaches pose a year-round threat to local property owners, and it’s safe to say that no one wants to stumble across them, whether it be in the kitchen, bathroom, or laundry room. Cockroaches hide in secluded areas behind appliances, under cabinets, in pantries, and inside garbage containers and other bacteria-laden spaces. However, not all Santa Clara cockroaches are the same.

The two most common species in the area include:

• German Cockroaches - These small, oval-shaped roaches are yellowish-brown with two short black stripes running horizontally from the back of their heads down to the base of their wings.  

• Oriental Cockroaches - These are very dark brown roaches with smooth, shiny bodies that give off a musty odor. They usually live at or below ground level.

Whatever species you’re dealing with, cockroaches are unsanitary pests that expose us to all kinds of germs and diseases. In fact, a study found a total of 30 different species of human bacteria associated with a cockroach infestation. Contact the team at Miche Pest Control for year-round cockroach control services. We’re eager to help.  

Scorpions are common area pests that all Santa Clara property owners should be aware of. There are over 1,200 scorpion species in the world, and the U.S. alone has 70 species. If you want to learn more about these arid-area pests, here are some answers to Santa Clara’s most commonly asked scorpion questions:

Are Scorpions Dangerous?

Scorpions have a stinger at the end of their long tail, and they sting for one of two reasons: either they’re killing prey, or they’re defending themselves. When a scorpion stings, it injects venom into your body and can expose you to a list of symptoms and adverse health consequences. Most scorpions aren’t that dangerous, but the Arizona Bark scorpion is the most dangerous species as it has poisonous venom.

Where Are Scorpions Found?

Scorpions are nocturnal pests that live in dry habitats. They tend to burrow into the soil and under huge rocks, logs, and other natural debris. In the home, they take shelter in cool, moist areas like attics and crawlspaces.

What Can I Do To Prevent Scorpion Activity?

Eliminate harborage sites around the property such as woodpiles, trash, and debris. Also, be sure to store firewood off the ground, away from the perimeter of the structure, and remove stones and timbers from the property.

The best way to effectively protect yourself and your property from scorpion activity is by contacting the professionals. Miche Pest Control is here to protect your property from scorpion activity. Call us to hear more about our scorpion control and prevention services.
