How to Recognize an Insect Problem

Having an awareness of the signs that indicate a potential insect infestation goes a long way to keeping your home or business insect free. When caught early, insects are much easier to control. Home and business owners should be on the lookout for the following conditions:

Bites: While it’s natural to have an occasional insect bite after spending time outdoors, if you notice frequent or several bite marks at once and haven’t been outside for extended periods, you could be dealing with an insect problem and perhaps even bed bugs, that will bite you and your pets to feed on blood. If you or a family member has unexplainable bites, it’s likely time for a professional inspection.
Live Insects: Seeing a bug or two in your home, especially once the weather warms up, is not a cause for concern. However, it you have a trail of ants marching across your counter or large groups of other bugs, our team can help you identify them, their access to your home, and help you get rid of them.
Dead Insects: If you find a lot of dead bugs, especially of the same type, it’s a good sign that there is a larger colony of living relatives somewhere in your home. Give us a call…we’ll investigate and get to the root of the problem.
Droppings: Insect droppings are called “frass” and can appear as tiny brown or black spots that resemble anything from coffee grounds to black pepper and are often found in groupings or clusters.
Foul Smells: If you notice bad odors that don’t seem to be attributable to any specific reason, it could be a sign of established pest colonies in your home. Bed bugs often have a sweet, musty smell that can resemble berries. Roaches have an oily, musty smell.
Unusual Noises: If you hear sounds across your kitchen or bathroom floors at night, or sounds that seem to come from your walls, these could be signs of roaches or other bugs living in your home.
Damage to Your House: Frayed or damaged fabrics on curtains, furniture, and clothes can indicate a moth problem while termites can damage your home’s structure, with their signs showing in basements and crawlspaces with exposed wood.
