Are Marmots Here to Stay in Delta?

 Yellow-bellied marmots are becoming a more common sight throughout South Delta, especially near dikes, ferry routes, and rocky shoreline areas. These large ground squirrels are easy to recognize by their stocky bodies, brown fur, and yellowish undersides.Originally more common in inland and mountainous regions of British Columbia, marmots have adapted surprisingly well to the Lower Mainland. Over the past several years, colonies have continued to grow in Delta and nearby communities. Marmots prefer rocky environments where they can build protected burrows beneath large stones and embankments. These burrows help shelter them from predators and extreme weather. Because marmots are highly social animals, several individuals may live together in one colony. Their diet includes grasses, plants, insects, and occasionally bird eggs. In colder regions, marmots hibernate for much of the year, but Lower Mainland temperatures appear to shorten their hibernation period significantly. While many residents enjoy spotting marmots sunbathing or playing near dikes and trails, feeding wildlife is discouraged. Human food can harm their digestive systems and may cause animals to become dependent on people. As wildlife populations continue adapting to urban and coastal environments, homeowners may increasingly encounter burrowing animals near residential or commercial properties. Monitoring activity early can help prevent damage to landscaping, foundations, and outdoor structures.

Are Marmots Here to Stay in Delta?

Are Marmots Here to Stay in Delta?

From ants in the kitchen to moths in the pantry, household pests can quickly become a major nuisance. While many common bugs don’t spread serious disease, they can contaminate food, damage belongings, and make your home uncomfortable. At Go Green Pest Control, we help homeowners eliminate pests safely and effectively.

Common Household Pests

Ants

Ants are one of the most common household invaders. They’re attracted to crumbs, moisture, and unsealed food. While most species are more annoying than dangerous, they can contaminate surfaces and food.

Prevention Tips:

• Store food in sealed containers
• Clean crumbs and spills quickly
• Seal cracks and entry points
• Remove standing moisture

Baits are often more effective than sprays because worker ants carry the treatment back to the nest.

Bed Bugs

Bed bugs hide in mattresses, furniture, and cracks near sleeping areas. Their bites can cause itchy welts, anxiety, and sleep disruption. Signs include small blood stains on bedding, dark spotting, and tiny eggshells.

Because bed bugs spread easily and are difficult to eliminate completely, professional treatment is strongly recommended.

Cockroaches

Cockroaches thrive in dark, warm areas and can trigger allergies and asthma symptoms. They often enter through tiny cracks, drains, or shared walls in apartments.

To reduce infestations:

• Keep kitchens clean and dry
• Store pet food properly
• Seal gaps around doors and windows
• Remove grease and food residue

Persistent infestations usually require professional pest control services.

Flies

Houseflies and blowflies are attracted to garbage and decaying material. They can carry bacteria onto food and surfaces.

Keep flies away by:

• Using tight-fitting garbage lids
• Repairing damaged window screens
• Cleaning food waste promptly
• Using traps or perimeter treatments when necessary

Moths

Closet moths damage fabrics like wool and silk, while pantry moths contaminate dry foods such as grains, cereal, and flour.

Best prevention methods include:

• Storing dry goods in airtight containers
• Vacuuming pantry shelves regularly
• Washing or freezing infested clothing
• Cleaning spills immediately

Professional Pest Control You Can Trust

DIY treatments can help with minor pest problems, but larger infestations often require expert solutions. Go Green Pest Control provides safe, eco-friendly pest management for homes and businesses.

Bugs Should be Outdoors

Dealing with rats under your hot tub can be a nuisance and a potential health hazard. Here are some steps you can take to address the issue:

1. Identify Entry Points: Inspect the area around your hot tub for potential entry points. Rats can squeeze through small openings, so check for gaps or holes in the structure.
2. Seal Entry Points: Once you identify entry points, seal them with materials that rats cannot easily chew through. Steel wool, wire mesh, or expanding foam can be effective.
3. Remove Attractants: Ensure there is no readily available food source around the hot tub area. Secure garbage cans, clean up any spilled food, and avoid leaving pet food outside.
4. Trim Vegetation: Trim back any overgrown vegetation around the hot tub. Rats may use dense vegetation as cover and a pathway to reach the area.
5. Use Traps: Set traps strategically around the hot tub. Snap traps or live traps can be effective. Check local regulations and guidelines for humane trapping and disposal.
6. Consider Natural Deterrents: Some natural repellents, such as peppermint oil or ammonia, may deter rats. Soak cotton balls in these substances and place them near entry points.
7. Professional Help: If the problem persists, call Go Green Pest Control for professional pest control services. We can assess the situation, identify the root cause, and implement effective measures.
8. Maintain the Hot Tub: Regularly clean and maintain your hot tub to remove any potential nesting materials or attractants. Rats may be attracted to warm, sheltered spaces.

Remember, it’s crucial to address the issue promptly, as rats can carry diseases and cause damage to property. If you’re unsure about how to proceed, or if the problem persists despite your efforts, consulting with a pest control professional is advisable.

Rats and Hot Tubs

The Brown Dog Tick is one of the most troublesome tick species for homeowners because it can survive and reproduce indoors. Unlike many outdoor ticks that prefer forests or tall grass, brown dog ticks often infest homes, kennels, garages, and pet bedding areas.

At Go Green Pest Control, we help homeowners throughout Delta, Richmond, Tsawwassen, Ladner, and North Delta identify, eliminate, and prevent tick infestations using environmentally responsible pest management methods.

What Are Brown Dog Ticks?

Brown dog ticks are small reddish-brown parasites that primarily feed on dogs. They can hide in:

• Pet bedding
• Carpets and rugs
• Cracks in walls and baseboards
• Furniture
• Kennels and garages

Unlike many other tick species, brown dog ticks can complete their entire life cycle indoors, which makes infestations difficult to control without professional treatment.

Adult ticks are typically 3–5 mm long before feeding and become swollen and grey-blue after feeding on a host.

Why Brown Dog Ticks Are a Problem

A single female tick can lay thousands of eggs. Once inside a home, populations can grow quickly if left untreated.

Brown dog ticks may:

• Bite humans as well as pets
• Cause irritation and allergic reactions
• Spread diseases to dogs
• Create long-term indoor infestations

Homes with dogs, especially multi-pet households, are at greater risk.

Signs of a Brown Dog Tick Infestation

You may have a tick problem if you notice:

• Ticks crawling on walls or floors
• Small brown insects near pet sleeping areas
• Excessive scratching or biting in pets
• Tick bites on family members
• Clusters of ticks in cracks or corners

Ticks are commonly brought indoors by pets after walks, dog parks, boarding facilities, or travel.

How to Prevent Brown Dog Ticks

Prevention is the best defense against ticks. We recommend:

• Regular tick checks on pets
• Veterinary-approved tick prevention products
• Frequent vacuuming of carpets and furniture
• Washing pet bedding in hot water
• Sealing cracks and gaps indoors
• Keeping yards clean and trimmed

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques focus heavily on prevention, inspection, and targeted treatment methods.

Professional Tick Control Services

Because brown dog ticks can hide deep inside homes and reproduce indoors, DIY sprays often fail to eliminate the full infestation.

Professional treatment may include:

• Detailed inspections
• Targeted treatment of infested areas
• Follow-up monitoring
• Exclusion and prevention recommendations
• Environmentally conscious pest management solutions

At Go Green Pest Control, we provide customized residential and commercial pest control services throughout the Delta and Richmond area. Our environmentally friendly approach focuses on identifying, eliminating, and preventing pest problems while minimizing impact on people, pets, and the environment.

If you suspect brown dog ticks in your home or business, early treatment is critical.

Brown Dog Ticks in British Columbia: What Homeowners Need to Know

By Go Green Pest Control

📞 778-88-4111
🌐 GoGreenPestControl.ca

As warmer seasons arrive, tick activity increases across many parts of North America, and one species drawing growing attention is the Lone Star Tick. Known for its aggressive biting behavior and potential health risks, this tick has become a concern for homeowners, hikers, pet owners, and outdoor workers alike.

At Go Green Pest Control, we believe prevention and education are the best defense against harmful pests. Here’s what you should know about Lone Star Ticks and how to protect your family and property.

What Is a Lone Star Tick?

The Lone Star Tick (Amblyomma americanum) is a reddish-brown tick identified by the distinct white or silver spot found on the back of adult females. Males have scattered white markings along their edges.

Originally more common in the southeastern United States, Lone Star Tick populations have been expanding northward due to climate changes, wildlife movement, and warmer temperatures.

Unlike some tick species that passively wait for hosts, Lone Star Ticks are known to actively seek out humans and animals, making encounters more frequent and alarming.

Why Are Lone Star Ticks Dangerous?

Lone Star Ticks are associated with several health concerns, including:

• Tick-borne bacterial infections
• Skin irritation and allergic reactions
• Southern Tick-Associated Rash Illness (STARI)
• Potential transmission of ehrlichiosis
• Alpha-gal syndrome, a rare allergy to red meat triggered after certain tick bites

Although Lyme disease is more commonly linked to blacklegged ticks, Lone Star Ticks can still pose serious health risks and should never be ignored.

Signs You May Have Ticks Around Your Property

Ticks thrive in humid, shaded environments with tall grass and vegetation. You may be at increased risk if your property has:

• Overgrown lawns or brush
• Wooded areas nearby
• Leaf piles and dense shrubs
• Wildlife activity such as deer, raccoons, or rodents
• Unmaintained fence lines or garden edges

Pets frequently scratching or bringing ticks indoors can also be an early warning sign.

How to Protect Your Family and Pets

Prevention is essential when it comes to ticks. Here are several important safety tips:

Keep Your Yard Maintained

Regular mowing, trimming bushes, and removing leaf litter helps reduce tick habitats.

Create Tick Barriers

Use gravel or mulch borders between lawns and wooded areas to discourage tick migration.

Protect Pets

Use veterinarian-approved tick prevention treatments and check pets after outdoor activities.

Dress Carefully Outdoors

Wear long sleeves, long pants, and light-colored clothing when walking in grassy or wooded areas.

Perform Tick Checks

After spending time outdoors, inspect your body, clothing, children, and pets carefully.

Professional Tick Control Services

Ticks are difficult to eliminate completely without professional help because they hide in dense vegetation and reproduce rapidly. Professional pest management can significantly reduce tick populations around your home and create a safer outdoor environment.

At Go Green Pest Control, we use environmentally responsible pest management solutions designed to target ticks while keeping your family and pets in mind. Our trained technicians inspect your property, identify risk areas, and develop customized treatment plans for long-term protection.

When Should You Call a Pest Control Professional?

You should contact a pest control expert if:

• You regularly find ticks on family members or pets
• Your property borders wooded or high-risk areas
• You notice increasing wildlife activity
• You want preventative seasonal protection
• You suspect a growing tick population around your home

Early intervention can help prevent larger infestations and reduce health risks.

Lone Star Ticks: What Homeowners Need to Know in Canada

If you’ve ever heard mysterious thumping in the attic at 2 a.m., discovered tipped-over garbage cans, or locked eyes with a furry masked bandit on your back deck, congratulations — you may have a raccoon roommate.

Here in the Lower Mainland, raccoons are clever, curious, and surprisingly comfortable around humans. At Go Green Pest Control, we’ve seen it all: raccoons squeezing through tiny roof openings, turning attics into nurseries, and treating compost bins like all-you-can-eat buffets.

Why Raccoons Love Human Neighbourhoods

To a raccoon, suburban life is pretty luxurious.

Humans unintentionally provide:

• Easy food sources
• Warm shelter
• Safe nesting spots
• Water access
• Minimal predators

Your attic? Cozy and dry.
Your garbage can? Gourmet dining.
Your pet’s food bowl? Midnight snack bar.

Raccoons are highly intelligent animals with excellent memory and problem-solving skills. If they find a reliable food source once, they’ll often return — and sometimes bring the whole family.

The “Tiny Home” Trend — Raccoon Edition

Female raccoons especially love attics and crawl spaces during spring baby season. A quiet attic can feel like the perfect luxury maternity suite.

Signs you may have raccoons living above you:

• Heavy walking or stomping noises at night
• Chattering or crying sounds
• Insulation being disturbed
• Strong odours
• Damage near roof vents or soffits

Unlike mice, raccoons are not subtle tenants. They tend to redecorate aggressively.

Surprisingly Human-Like Behaviour

One reason people find raccoons fascinating is how “human” they seem.

Raccoons:

• Use their front paws almost like hands
• Wash or inspect food carefully
• Open latches and containers
• Learn routines quickly
• Recognize safe pathways around homes

Some homeowners even report raccoons staring through patio doors as if they’re considering paying rent.

Why DIY Raccoon Removal Can Go Sideways

Raccoons may look cute, but they can become defensive when cornered — especially mothers protecting babies.

Improper removal can lead to:

• Injured animals
• Structural damage
• Contaminated insulation
• Repeat infestations
• Unwanted surprise encounters in confined spaces

Humane handling and proper exclusion are the safest long-term solutions.

Keeping Your Home Less Appealing to Raccoons

A few small habits can make a big difference:

• Secure garbage bins tightly
• Avoid leaving pet food outside overnight
• Trim tree branches near the roof
• Repair openings in soffits and vents
• Clean up fallen fruit and food waste

Think of it as removing the raccoon “welcome mat.”

When It’s Time to Call the Pros

If raccoons have already moved in, professional removal helps prevent repeat visits and further damage. Humane exclusion methods can safely encourage them to relocate while protecting your home from future guests.

For friendly, effective help, contact Go Green Pest Control at 778-886-4111.

Because raccoons belong in nature — not hosting late-night dance parties in your attic.

Why Raccoons Think Your Home Is a Five-Star Resort

Raccoons may look harmless, but they can create major health and property problems for homeowners and businesses throughout the Lower Mainland. One of the biggest dangers associated with raccoons is their feces, which can contain harmful parasites and bacteria that pose serious risks to humans and pets.

At Go Green Pest Control, we help property owners safely remove raccoons, clean contaminated areas, and prevent future infestations.

Why Raccoon Feces Are Dangerous

Raccoon droppings are more than just unpleasant — they can carry dangerous parasites, including Baylisascaris procyonis, commonly known as raccoon roundworm. The eggs from this parasite can survive in soil and contaminated areas for years.

Humans and pets can become infected through accidental contact with contaminated surfaces or airborne particles during cleanup. In severe cases, exposure can lead to serious neurological illness.

Raccoon feces may also contain:

• Harmful bacteria
• Parasites
• Fungal spores
• Diseases transmissible to pets and humans

Children and pets are especially vulnerable if raccoons have contaminated yards, decks, attics, sheds, or crawl spaces.

Common Signs of a Raccoon Problem

You may have raccoons on your property if you notice:

• Droppings in attics, roofs, decks, or yards
• Noises in ceilings or walls at night
• Torn insulation or damaged vents
• Garbage scattered around the property
• Strong odours coming from attic spaces
• Tracks or nesting materials

Raccoons often create “latrine sites,” where they repeatedly leave feces in the same location.

Never Clean Raccoon Feces Without Protection

Disturbing raccoon droppings without proper protection can release dangerous particles into the air. Sweeping or vacuuming contaminated material can increase exposure risks.

Professional cleanup is strongly recommended for contaminated attics, crawl spaces, roofs, and heavily affected outdoor areas.

At Go Green Pest Control, we use proper safety procedures and sanitation methods to safely handle raccoon contamination.

How Go Green Pest Control Can Help

Our trained technicians provide:

• Humane raccoon removal
• Entry point inspections
• Exclusion and prevention services
• Safe feces removal and sanitation
• Odour control
• Attic and crawl space cleanup

We focus on long-term prevention to help keep raccoons from returning.

Protect Your Home and Family

If you suspect raccoons have been living on your property, it is important to act quickly before contamination spreads or structural damage becomes worse.

Raccoons and Their Feces: A Serious Health Risk for Homeowners

If you’ve noticed tiny ants marching across your kitchen counter or crawling along your driveway, you may be dealing with either “sugar ants” or pavement ants. While they look similar at first glance, these ants behave very differently — and knowing which one you have can help determine the best treatment strategy.

At Go Green Pest Control, we often help homeowners across the Lower Mainland identify and eliminate both species before they become a major infestation.

Need help with ants in your home? Call 778-886-4111 for professional ant control services.

What Are Sugar Ants?

The term “sugar ant” is commonly used to describe odorous house ants. These small dark ants are especially attracted to sweet foods and moisture inside homes. When crushed, they produce a strong smell often compared to rotten coconut.

Sugar ants are notorious indoor invaders because they prefer nesting close to food and water sources. Common nesting areas include:

• Behind kitchen cabinets
• Inside wall voids
• Under sinks
• Around hot water pipes
• Behind baseboards and appliances

They frequently enter homes during rainy weather or temperature changes.

What Are Pavement Ants?

Pavement ants usually live outdoors under:

• Sidewalks
• Driveways
• Concrete slabs
• Patio stones
• Foundations

They get their name from their habit of pushing soil through cracks in pavement, creating tiny dirt mounds near sidewalks and driveways.

Unlike sugar ants, pavement ants prefer outdoor colonies but will enter homes searching for food, especially after heavy rain or during hot summer conditions.

Key Differences Between Sugar Ants and Pavement Ants

Feature	Sugar Ants (Odorous House Ants)	Pavement Ants
Main Nesting Area	Indoors and outdoors	Mostly outdoors
Favorite Foods	Sweet foods and moisture	Greasy foods, proteins, sweets
Odor When Crushed	Rotten coconut smell	Mild earthy or peppery smell
Colony Behavior	Multiple queens, rapidly spreading	Territorial outdoor colonies
Common Entry Reason	Seeking moisture and shelter	Searching for food
Typical Location	Kitchens, bathrooms, walls	Sidewalk cracks, patios, driveways

Why Sugar Ants Are Harder to Eliminate

Sugar ants are one of the most frustrating ant infestations because they often have multiple queens and satellite colonies. Disturbing one nest can cause the colony to split and spread into new areas of the home.

Many store-bought sprays only kill visible worker ants while the colony continues growing behind walls.

Professional treatment focuses on:

• Identifying nest locations
• Using targeted bait systems
• Eliminating the queen colonies
• Sealing entry points
• Reducing moisture sources

Signs You May Have an Ant Infestation

Watch for:

• Long ant trails in kitchens or bathrooms
• Ants around sinks or dishwashers
• Small dirt piles near concrete cracks
• Increased ant activity after rain
• Persistent ants returning after DIY sprays

If ants keep coming back, the colony is likely hidden deep inside walls, under concrete, or beneath your foundation.

How Go Green Pest Control Can Help

At Go Green Pest Control, we provide safe and effective ant control treatments for homes and businesses throughout British Columbia.

We use professional-grade solutions designed to:

• Eliminate sugar ants and pavement ants
• Target hidden colonies
• Prevent future infestations
• Reduce pesticide exposure for families and pets

Whether your ants are nesting indoors or under your driveway, our team can identify the species and create a customized treatment plan.

Sugar Ants vs. Pavement Ants: What’s the Difference?

If you’ve never heard of the Asian needle ant, you’re not alone. This invasive ant species has quietly spread across many parts of North America and is gaining attention because of its painful sting, ability to invade homes and yards, and potential health risks. For homeowners, gardeners, and property managers, understanding this pest is becoming increasingly important.

At Go Green Pest Control, we believe education is the first step in protecting your home and family from invasive pests.

What Is the Asian Needle Ant?

The Asian needle ant (Brachyponera chinensis) is an invasive ant species originally native to parts of East Asia, including China, Japan, and Korea. It was first detected in the United States in the 1930s and has gradually expanded its range over the past several decades.

Unlike common household ants, Asian needle ants are known for their slender dark bodies, orange-brown legs, and powerful stinger. Workers are typically about 3 to 5 millimeters long.

Why Are Asian Needle Ants Dangerous?

One of the biggest concerns surrounding Asian needle ants is their sting. While these ants are not typically aggressive, they will sting when disturbed or threatened.

Experts say the sting is often more painful than a fire ant sting and, in some people, can trigger severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis.

Symptoms of a serious reaction may include:

• Swelling
• Hives
• Difficulty breathing
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Rapid heartbeat

Individuals with known insect sting allergies should use extra caution around these ants.

Where Do Asian Needle Ants Nest?

Asian needle ants prefer moist, shaded environments and often hide in areas homeowners may not notice right away.

Common nesting sites include:

• Mulch beds
• Rotting logs
• Leaf litter
• Under stones
• Landscape timbers
• Piles of wood
• Beneath pavers
• Crawl spaces

Unlike many ant species, they do not usually form large visible mounds or travel in obvious trails, making infestations difficult to detect early.

How to Identify Asian Needle Ants

Asian needle ants can easily be mistaken for other dark-colored ants. However, a few characteristics stand out:

• Dark brown to black body
• Slim, shiny appearance
• Light orange-brown legs and antennae
• Slow-moving behavior
• Solitary foraging rather than long trails

They are often found wandering alone rather than moving in organized lines like pavement ants or odorous house ants.

Environmental Impact

Beyond the risk to people, Asian needle ants also threaten local ecosystems. Researchers have found that they can displace native ant populations and disrupt natural seed dispersal systems in forests and gardens.

Some studies suggest areas invaded by Asian needle ants experience significant declines in native ant diversity.

How to Prevent Asian Needle Ant Infestations

Preventing infestations starts with reducing moisture and eliminating potential nesting sites around your property.

Helpful prevention tips include:

• Remove leaf litter and yard debris
• Keep mulch away from the foundation
• Store firewood off the ground
• Seal cracks and entry points
• Repair leaks and drainage issues
• Trim vegetation touching the home
• Keep outdoor areas clean and dry

Professional inspections can also help identify nesting activity before colonies spread.

What To Do If You See Asian Needle Ants

If you suspect Asian needle ants on your property:

1. Avoid handling them directly
2. Do not disturb suspected nests
3. Take a photo if possible for identification
4. Contact a professional pest control company

DIY treatments are often ineffective because these ants nest in hidden, difficult-to-access areas. Professional baiting and targeted treatment programs are typically the most effective solution.

Protect Your Home With Go Green Pest Control

Asian needle ants may be small, but they can create serious problems for homeowners and families. Early detection and professional treatment are the best ways to prevent infestations from becoming a larger issue.

If you are dealing with ants or other invasive pests, contact Go Green Pest Control for safe, effective pest management solutions.
