Uncommon Home Based Pests
Hearts Pest Management provides a program of pest inspection, prevention and treatment for both the common and unusual pests that you find in the home.
View information on our residential program for those common, but pesky pests that invade the home, primarily ants and spiders, the occasional earwig.
There are several pests found in the home that we consider separate from the “general pest control services.” Why? Well, they often have some specific cause independent of the natural environment surrounding the house.
This includes:
Let’s take a look at these pests one by one.
Cockroaches are sometimes outside invaders. These are usually the “oriental cockroaches that you see in the garage or laundry room or some other entrance way. But we all know that cockroaches are associated with kitchens – your kitchen and the kitchens, restaurants or other homes you have visited.
Silverfish are usually associated with temperature, moisture and storage in the home.
Fleas and ticks are obviously associated with pets. There may or may not be fleas and ticks in the yard. While treating those areas is important, it is just as likely that the infestation came from a park or recreation area where your pet goes on or off a leash.
Carpet beetles and clothes moths are associated with the origin of clothing that you purchase.
Bed bugs are hitch hikers. You are not outside invaders. But they do go from house to house, plane to house, office to house, car to house, apartment to apartment.
Mites and parasites are the “mysterious pests” that are described by bites but often never seen. In fact, within the pest control industry we often call them “no-see-ums.” Some you definitely can see and associate with a rat, mouse or bird infestation. Others, not so easy.
So for the pests described and many more, such as bees and wasps, we really must inspect first. We know that it is the best and proper way to address your concerns fully.
We can solve all these problems with your help. Some we can add to one of our maintenance service schedules after the initial problem is resolved. For some of these pests you will never need another service again.
We also inspect and treat for rodents – both rats and mice – and we provide comprehensive solutions. You’ll want to check out our rodent program more fully.
