Termites are wood destroying insects that can do serious structural damage to your home and surrounding property, this is why early detection and termite removal are so important. They make their nests in moist, dark places like woodpiles and attics, and then go about destroying the area to expand the nest. They may even set up in a wood pile and then expand when you bring that wood into your house. Therefore, it is always best to be careful and check everything before you bring it inside. Luckily termites are usually easy to spot, as the wood where they are will show signs of them chewing through it.
Mice are scavengers always on the lookout for a place that offers significant shelter and a good supply of food. They are constantly in motion, and are attracted to dark areas of your property that also provide a steady source of water for drinking. They like food that is dry for the most part, including grains, nuts, and fruits, but they will eat whatever they can get their hands on if the situation calls for it. You will find mice in your attic, garage, crawlspace, kitchen cabinets, or even inside your car in some circumstances.
While dangerous spiders are not as common in the Pacific Northwest as they are in other areas, there are still some spiders that can be a real problem to deal with if not taken care of effectively. Spiders take up residence in crawlspaces, around furniture, in basements, and around the shady places in your yard. They will set up webs to try to catch unsuspecting insects and then feed on those insects. There are occasions when spiders will bite humans as well. While some spider bites are just a nuisance, there are types of spiders whose bites can be dangerous to humans.
You do not need pets to have a flea infestation, though they are a big part of them. Fleas can infiltrate your home in a lot of ways, including through your clothing, on your shoes, or, yes, on your pets. They will jump off and make themselves at home in your carpet, in your crawlspace, or in your furniture. While fleas can get into your home in many ways, they do need a host animal to latch onto for food supply, which means people with pets are at a far greater risk than people without pets. If you are in need of Flea Removal, contact us at Paratex- American Pest Management and we will help you deal with the problem.
Rats, like other rodents, target areas during the winter months when the cold weather pushes them to find a source of shelter, food, and water. If your home has plumbing leaks, or other areas with excessive moisture, such as wood piles, you have a higher risk of needing rat removal. Rats like dark areas, such as crawl spaces or garages, and will be most active during the night. It can be tough to notice a rat infestation until it reaches higher levels. Once you do notice a rat infestation, it can be difficult to deal with, as rats are tough customers.
