Insects are pests which do more than cause a disgusting appearance. They can do damage to your home, garden, and to pets. In some cases they can inflict harm on people. Most of these creatures are too hard to see. The best way to be sure you don’t have these pests is to have an experienced pest control expert come out and examine your house and yard. He will be looking for these among other less frequent visitors:
1. Termites
2. Carpenter ants
3. Fire ants
4. Spiders and Fleas
5. Cockroaches
6. Ticks, and other insects
The most destructive of these and the hardest to find are the Termites. They are attracted to wood and moisture. Termites live in the ground but they are always looking for ways to get into the home. They accomplish this by building a mud tunnel up the side of the foundation and using this to eat their way into the home. Termites can not only eat the support wood of the foundation but they can also move into the living area and get into wood furniture or furniture frames and begin to eat their way through this material. Hiring an experienced Exterminator in Oklahoma City is the best way to find termites and eradicate them from your home wherever they may be.
Cockroaches can multiply very quickly so if you have a pair, you will soon have hundreds. They hide out in dark places and they like moisture. The cockroach is a scavenger and enjoys living on decaying food. They can hide in porch crevices, foundation cracks and piles of wood. They will enter crawl spaces and live there. They also hide out in the kitchen areas roaming the counter tops at night looking for food.
Fire ants are dangerous because they will bite people and pets and the bites will sting. These pests are not hard to find but they require a professional to get rid of them. The Exterminator in Oklahoma City can handle the task.
There are many pests that can live in your yard and in your home. An Accura Pest Control exterminator should inspect your home every three months and spray for pests which are known to be inside the home.
