There are many reasons why you may need to call an exterminator from a qualified company such as Bates Exterminating. Pests such as roaches and bed bugs can be unhealthy. Spiders, wasps and bees can be dangerous. Termites can cause damage to the structure of your home. If you have any of these unwanted pests in your home, don’t delay calling a professional.
Q.) I think I have termites in my home. What are the signs of a termite infestation?
A.) Look for long cylindrical tubes of mud on your foundation or on the side of your house. Termites construct these tunnels to safely travel from outside to the inside of your home. If you have a crawl space, go underneath your house and look for damage to wood beams. Tap on the beams with a hammer and if they sound hollow, termites have already infested your home.
Q.) I’ve noticed hundreds of tiny bugs on my mattress and I think they are bedbugs. What can I do to get these bugs out of my bed?
A.) The first thing you should do is call and make an appointment with an exterminator. These bugs will quickly spread and multiply if you don’t do something fast. Until the exterminator arrives, take your sheets and blankets off your bed and wash them in very hot water. Don’t forget to wash your pillows and pillowcases too. After washing, dry everything you washed in your clothes dryer on the hottest setting.
Q.) Every spring, our dogs get covered in fleas and ticks in our yard. Is there a safe product for my lawn to get rid of the fleas and ticks?
A.) A professional exterminator can get rid of fleas and ticks in your yard. If your inside pets often go outdoors, they can get fleas and bring them into your house. Fleas multiply at a very rapid rate and it doesn’t take long before your house will be infested with these biting pests. An exterminator can use a safe product on your lawn to get rid of these pests.
