Post Infestation Treatment

So, after your house has been treated with pesticides, what do you do next? Yes you want to get back in and clean the floor, vacuum etc but.. first heed the warning about when you can return to your home and anything you were supposed to do, like opening window etc. You can keep your house clean while still preserving the integrity of the treatment. Cleaning of the treated area can safely take place about one week after the application but don’t remove any chemical under baseboards. If any bait boxes were left in your home, clean around them. Talk to your technician about cleaning tips and particulars as you don’t want to waste money on unsuccessful extermination due to hasty cleaning.

Lower mainland Rats

 

There are two common rats in the southwest area of B.C., both sociable animal and found around food sources. First there is the Norway rat that burrows in the ground and is generally around crawl spaces, attics, clutter, woodpiles, garbage, and piles of debris. Then there’s the roof rat that likes to climb and tends to live in trees, roofs or attics. So how do we get rid of rats? Rats are very adaptable animals, as long as there is food and water they can live in almost every location. The most important thing is to cut off their food sources, then reduce all clutter in and around your house. If they are getting into your home then removing the rats entry points is important, called exclusion. And finally, to eliminate them we use rodenticides, snap traps, live traps and tracking power.

Mosquito Season Is Over, Right?

Everyone recognizes that distinctive buzz and the sting of a mosquito. They are attracted to the carbon dioxide we exhale and components of our perspiration. When considering mosquito season, you need to consider the weather zone we live in and therefore, Delta is particularly vulnerable to mosquito season in summer and into the fall. So when do mosquitoes go away? Only when the weather begins to cool down will the mosquitoes begin to start looking for a place to hide and hibernate. But some mosquitoes can appear again if there are unexpected warm spells during winter. If mosquito’s are still bugging you use insect repellent, wear protective clothing, protect your house with barriers, don’t leave stagnant water around and avoid gathering where mosquitoes are.

Rodent Control in Delta

Delta homes are overrun by rodents like rats, mice, and squirrels every year. Various types and species are common in Delta, especially rats often called the rats of Delta. Rodents cause great damage, spread diseases and disease-causing parasites, and create havoc to homes because we have the perfect subtropical climate making it a ideal environment for them to mate and multiply. They chew your walls, electricals, insulation, and any wooden structures in your home and can cause thousands of dollars in repairs only. When you find droppings, gnawed or chewed materials or foul smell from rodent urine around your home, in the crawl space or attic it is a sign of an infestation.
