Sugar Ants and Can You get rid of them?

If you have these pests nesting in your home, it’s really no surprise, we are living on their silty soil here in Delta. When it comes to food preferences, these ants are often sweet-seekers or everything-eaters. Of course, these ants are attracted to sugar – be it white, brown, and powdered sugars; honey; corn, maple and other syrups; and jams, jellies, and preserves. And then cake, candy, fruit, nectar, and sugary soft drinks.  They invade indoor spaces, such as kitchens, dinning rooms and pantries, looking for food. So make your home less appealing by wiping up spills and cleaning up after prepping, cooking, or baking. If you have these ants, it is not recommended using retail ant products as they rarely work, rather they spread the ants all over the house, call a pro!!!

Cockroaches- What a Pain

Cockroaches can live through almost anything including headless. They breed quickly, one female cockroach can give birth over 650 baby roaches in a year. Cockroaches aren’t picky about what they eat as they will eat almost everything. Cockroaches can live as long as 10 years and are the fastest-running insects in the world. Cockroaches can squeeze through holes as narrow as a dime. And finally, they can contaminate areas of your home with salmonella, parasitic worms and E. coli.

Stink Bugs

While the stink bug can’t hurt you, they’re considered to be a pest because of what they use for defense, the very unpleasant odor they release when they are startled, disturbed or squashed. The stink bugs produce that smelly chemical in a gland on their abdomen. Some species can actually spray the chemical several inches. They can damage ornamental plants, fruit trees, and gardens.  They do not cause structural damage or spread disease, but they do cause a few issues.  They also fly around rooms and crawl on walls and ceilings in large numbers.

Bed Bugs – Ugh

Bedbugs in a home are a nasty nuisance and the best defense is to call a bed bug exterminator to completely eradicate the infestation. Bed bugs can be difficult to detect because they are so small, only 6 mm or less in size. Females are very productive laying over 600 eggs in a lifetime. It only takes a female 3 weeks to mature to adulthood. Bed bugs usually feed at night and if you are laying in a bed infested with bed bugs you’ll be shocked to awaken the next morning with tiny blood spots on the bed covers or your skin. Washing the bed sheets and even the bed itself will not solve the problem – call a bed bug exterminator.
