White-footed ants (Technomyrmex albipes)

There is a species of ant first discovered in Indonesia in 1861. It is the white-footed ant that neither bites nor causes structural damage. Yet, it is considered a nuisance due to their explosive population growth.

Introduced species
Although not native to North America, the insects were accidentally imported into Florida where they were first collected and identified in 1986. New information indicates that the white-footed ant in Florida is Technomyrmex difficilis.

Within the United States, white-foot or white-footed ants are prevalent in Florida, and small infestations are documented in South Carolina and Louisiana. White-footed ants infest both urban and suburban habitats, spreading to other areas through the transportation of infested landscaping materials and plants.

White-footed ants are moderately small, measuring 2.7 mm in length. They are black or brown in color with pale, yellowish feet and one-segmented waists. They have 12-segmented antennae with no club.

White-footed ants do not sting or bite, nor have they been reported to cause structural damage. However, each colony of white-footed ants contains between 8,000 and 3 million ants, and they can become a nuisance. They can infest indoor areas in search of food and are found in bathrooms, kitchens and along the exteriors of homes. White-footed ants often invade food containers to feed their colonies. Additionally, they feed on plant secretions and honeydew produced by aphids, scales and mealybugs; white-footed ants protect these species.

It is difficult to eradicate a white-footed ant infestation, as they eat various foods and their small body size enables them to enter most structures. Their colonies are large, building multiple nests close to a parent colony. To address a white-footed ant infestation, a pest control professional should be contacted.

Types of ants:

Little Black Ants
Crazy Ants
White-footed Ants
Black Ants
Leafcutter Ants
Grease Ants
Sugar Ants
Army Ants
Queen Ants
Winged Ants

Facts about Ants
Ants are one of the most common pests in residential and commercial properties. They are found in most homes, hospitals, offices, restaurants and other buildings where there is food and water. Ants are commonly accepted as they are beneficial environmental insects. This is mainly because they protect and care for insects that produce honeydew in outdoor and indoor plants. They will also feed on other pests, dead insects, and decomposed tissue from dead animals.

The problem is that inside buildings, ants feed on sugar, honey, syrups, fats, fruit juice and meat. They travel along long trails that lead from their nests to the food sources leaving marks behind them. As pests, they can pose health risks and are known to bite humans with their pincer-like jaws. Their nests can cause subsidence in soils as well.

If ants have become a nuisance for you, don’t hesitate to act. Call our experts today.

Pest Control

GREASE ANTS
Grease ants are one of the smallest species of ants, measuring only 1.5 to 2.2 mm in length. Grease ants are also known as thief ants because they nest close to other ant colonies and steal their food and young.

As their name suggests, grease ants prefer greasy foods but eat almost anything, including meats, nuts, cheeses, peanut butter and sweets. Due to their small size, they can easily fit inside food containers.

Worker grease ants are shiny and measure approximately 1.5 to 2.2 mm long, with yellow to light or dark brown bodies. The bodies of grease ants tend to curl when they die. They have two nodes, a thorax without spines, small compound eyes, antennae with 10 segments and antennal clubs with two segments. Grease ants are commonly confused with the pharaoh ant, but pharaoh ants have a three-segmented antennal club.

Grease ant infestation is most common in the summer when they forage indoors for food. When a colony of grease ants identifies a reliable food source within a kitchen, their infestation can persist. Grease ant nests can be difficult to locate. They are typically found in rotting wood and soil, but grease ants can also nest indoors in walls or cabinet crevices, baseboards, under countertops and in other hidden areas.

If a group of foraging ants is found inside your home, it is possible to follow their trail to locate the nest. However, due to the extremely small size of the grease ant, this is not always possible, and the most effective way to halt an infestation is to contact a local pest control professional.

Rats, mice, and other pests destroy crops and stored products. Without pest control, it might lead to the loss of other things. Every year 1.5 billion dollars in damages are caused by pests. Pest control is similar to visiting a medical specialist to take a special treatment. Your physician must diagnose the problem. The medical specialist uses this information to give the correct treatment. Our Pest Control service can identify the pest and collect information about the infestation. We then use safe environmental pest eradication. Most of the time, pesticide application is good for eliminating the problems. In other situations, we follow the non-toxic methods of trapping, sealing, and minimizing moisture. This is sometimes more effective than pesticides. There are many types of chemical, mechanical, and environmental methods used to produce the most effective solutions. Without pesticides, we suffer from many problems. To help prevent pests in and around the house, we implement moisture control, exclusion, sanitation, prevention and mechanical control. Moisture control is achieved by repairing leaky gutters and keeping them clean. Get rid of water in outdoor containers. Trash containers should be clean and tight. Food containers must be tightly sealed. Vacuum regularly. Prevention is used for eliminating pests. Mechanical control processes are used to remove pests. With the help of a vacuum, we can easily remove ladybird beetles, ants, and spider pests. Pest control service is a must to avoid any diseases and associated problems.

Our pest management

Crop management in agriculture includes pest management. It is classified in three ways: intervention, prevention, and observation. Merits of organic pest control are more effective. You should use only the best quality of chemicals. Pesticides also destroy beneficial insects. Organic methods are highly holistic and very effective. Organic farms suffer a smaller amount of loss than conventional farms. Let the best in Pest Control drive your worries away.

One of the challenges a homeowner faces is the reality of pest infestation, whether in the form of ants, cockroaches, rats, termites or others. They may be small creatures, but they are known to do plenty of damage to your lives, homes, and health when their numbers and activities are out of your control. Once detected, you will want to make sure that the activity is addressed so it does not get to that critical point where you are no longer able to eradicate them, and you end up vacating the premises instead. Early detection is crucial for control to be achieved. A professional pest company like our pest control is the ideal group for such treatments because we are trained to know what needs to be done and do it accordingly. Each infestation differs from the others, so the treatments also differ; only an expert in this industry would know which treatment is best for a particular problem. Most of the chemicals used in these treatments are toxic, so proper handling and usage have to be emphasized. Leave it to the hands of the professionals in your area to do the work thoroughly and, more importantly, safely.

Here are a few possible criteria you can use for picking out your pest control company:
1. Package Rates vary. Although the cost of having these treatments is generally known to be expensive, there will be a few differences in cost so that some companies will charge more (or less) than others. Compare the price differences but make sure you read the fine print to still get the most value out of your money when you choose a cheaper package.
2. The best source is trusted friend reviews in your local area. They are the best way to assess the quality of work of a particular company. You want to pick out a group that has been proven reliable and competent by your friends, not simply based on the company’s paid advertising. If your friends have tried the company and can vouch for the good results from the service, you can safely assume that you can expect the same treatment when you hire them.
3. Speedy Call-out Service in your local area. You want someone who can come in as soon as you call them. What’s the point in calling in the best in the field if they take their time coming over? The problem sometimes with choosing the best in the field is that they tend to be overbooked, so it could be possible that they cannot come out as soon as you want them to. If you feel the situation is urgent and cannot wait, go for the next best company that isn’t too busy and try them instead.

With the rates you spend for this service, you will want to be assured that you are getting the best team to get the best results. Take the time to evaluate your options before making the final choice of pest control team to go with.

Want to know more about pest control? Call us now! Reside In A Mice-Free Household With Powerful Pest Control Methods.

Numerous homeowners tend to be complacent about preventing mice and other rodents. It could be, to some extent, that we now typically see mice and rats being sold as pets, and for that reason, we don’t feel as threatened by mice and rats as we once did. This may also be because our era has never seen anything similar to the perilous Bubonic Plagues of the early 1900s. The phobia might have been lessened. However, you can still find good causes for preventing mice and rats from your household or farm.

The reason rodents are still a problem is that rodents still carry around the very same diseases they did during the 1900s. We know a lot more about them today. Advancements in modern medications have made many of the viruses and infections carried from mice to humans or pets less lethal. Having said that, none of us don’t wish to be on the receiving end of the various ailments that mice and rats can propagate like:

Toxoplasmosis, a parasitic illness which could result when a parasite is passed on from mice to cats and next to human beings. In healthy human beings, the chance of affliction is considered low; on the other hand, where a person has lessened immunity, damage to the eyes and swelling of the brain, among other issues, may happen.

Leptospirosis (also called Weil’s disease) is an infection thought to originate from food, water, or soil that has been infected by rodents. Olympic rower Andy Holmes passed away of this ailment seemingly after getting into contact with contaminated water.

Hemorrhagic fevers and some infections that affect various organs. Vaccinations are only meant for a couple of viruses in this group. Therefore, prevention is crucial.

Salmonellosis yes, the well-known Salmonella bacteria. Illness results from eating contaminated food, although few individuals know how the food in question gets to be contaminated. Food might be contaminated by waste from animals that might be infected, such as, but not limited to, mice.

How rodents spread disease:
Mice pass on disease in 3 ways – through the waste and urine the mice leave if they come into contact with food or utensils; by biting or in any manner getting into contact with human beings or animals; and by infecting parasites which in return contaminate humans or pets. Preventing mice can be challenging, and if nearby residences or properties are very well shielded from mice, your home could be the preferred feeding and breeding ground for the local mice.

Ways to Get Rid of Mice:
How do we deal with mice? Prevention is the initial line of protection from mice. Never leave any snacks out for these pests. Keep areas clean and clear of food crumbs and tightly seal packets of food you keep in the kitchen. Block off holes where these pests may get into the house. Our Pest Control experts will eradicate mice. If you are being invaded by mice, speak to your local pest control expert to set up an assessment and go over suitable rodent control approaches.

How to Get Rid of Unwanted Rats and Mice
Have you ever been sitting quietly in your home and thought you heard a little something but weren’t sure what it was? You probably just shrugged it off and went back to reading the paper. If you keep hearing little noises but can’t quite place where they’re coming from, you just may have rats and/or mice in your home. Of course, nobody wants rats and mice living in their home with them. Just the thought of it can make one shudder. But the possibility is there, making it a good idea to regularly and thoroughly check your home for any signs of these unwanted pests.

Signs to Look For in your home
The number one sign that you have a rat or mouse in your home is finding their droppings. Look in quiet, dark places and the back of your cupboards (in the kitchen and the bathroom). If you see any signs of droppings, you have a problem. So now the question is, how do you get rid of them? It doesn’t matter where you live or how small or big your home is; there is always the possibility of getting unwanted rats and mice. Unless you take some action by doing something to deter them from coming into your home, they’re going to come. The first thing you will need to do is get rid of any and all of the ways they can get into your food. Keep your food tightly wrapped so it’s harder for them to find it. Keep all countertops clean of food, and wash your dishes every night before going to bed. Also, sealing off any large entry points, preferably with steel or concrete, is a great idea. Next, decide if you want to use poison or traps to exterminate rats or mice that are already in your home. Although using poison is going to be the most effective, it is a poison, so it’s going to be toxic not only to the pests but to everyone else who lives in the home as well. There are a lot of choices when it comes to using traps. Snap traps, glue traps, and live traps are the most utilized types of rat/mouse traps. Either way, using traps may eliminate 1 or 2 pests, but rodent control is probably the best option to deal with an infestation.

Rats and Mice Control In Your Home
Having rodents such as rats and mice in your home can bring stress and unwanted grief. The main types of rats found in many homes are the Roof Rat, Norway Rat, and the common house mouse. Although there are many more types of rodents these are the most common found in homes. They cause damage to your home, spread diseases, and chew on cables, furniture, books, and clothes. If you have a rodent problem, it is best taken care of quickly as they can quickly multiply, and you could soon find yourself with a major infestation. Signs you may have rodents in your home are:
* Droppings around your home. Droppings are small, dark, and shiny and become hard after 3 days. Rub marks are greasy smear marks left behind by rodents on walls with continual impact. These appear dirty and greasy with rodent fur.
* Burrows, are often close to buildings and gardens where rodents may nest.
* Urine stains of rodents can be seen under an ultraviolet light showing where there may be a serious problem.
* Gnaw marks. Rodents need to gnaw to keep their teeth down constantly. As such, you may find gnaw marks on woodwork, cables, food containers, and furniture.
* Disappearance of your food or boxes that may have been chewed through.

To discourage rodents from your home, practice good sanitation methods, keep the kitchen and house clean, keep food in containers, don’t leave pet food out, keep bin areas clean, and trim branches away from roofs and gutters. Proofing your home against easy access for these rodents. Patch up any access holes and keep lawns and gardens clean. Store any rubbish away from your home and ensure your bins are rodent-proof.

A very effective treatment for eliminating rats or mice from your home is professional rodent baiting by a licensed Pest Control. These businesses can provide long-lasting bait treatments. These baits are highly palatable to rodents, and once they have taken the bait, they die off very quickly. Businesses will supply a lockable bait box to prevent kids and pets from accessing these baits, as they could harm them if eaten. Baits should be placed in your roof void as this is where rodents have usually set up their home. Lockable bait boxes should also be placed in your garage and around your garden. This will provide a long-lasting plan of attack against these rodents. It is best to check these boxes regularly and replace any baits that may have been taken.

These tips will help prevent and control rodents in and around your home. If you need pest control quotes or building and pest inspection quotes in your area call us now.

Pest Eradication for Businesses
If you run a business or rent out a property, then you have legal
obligations to keep your property clean. Rental properties are particularly
prone to pest infestations, and they can affect the value and returns of your investment. A business simply cannot tolerate even a single cockroach. Imagine if it crawled up the wall during a business meeting – a disaster.

Our Pest Control company is professional and competitively priced. We have been working throughout the area for the last 15 years and will provide regular inspection and pest control solutions to ensure
that your business premises or rental property are kept completely free.

Rental Properties
When a rental lease changes, it’s almost essential to have the place cleaned of pests, particularly fleas and bedbugs. Once a new tenant
moves in, it becomes more difficult to thoroughly clean a property, so it is best that they are cleaned between leases. Ask us about our special deals on flea and bedbug cleaning for rental properties! We service homes and units for many real estate property managers in the area.

Termites
Until you’ve seen a house ravaged by termites, it’s easy to dismiss them out of sight, out of mind. But a house can be literally destroyed. The termites follow the timber throughout the house and move upwards to the
roof eating their way through the timber, completely unseen. Until one day, a section of the house collapses, or even worse, you try to sell it and discover the house has been infested and is now worthless.

Yes, it happens. Until you have a termite inspector look closely at your
home, you can’t tell, because you don’t know what to look for. We also have special infrared thermal imaging technology that lets us see inside the wall to pinpoint the infestations of termites, cockroaches and other pests.

Different Suburbs have Different Pests
All the different suburbs have different infestations. Funnelweb spiders are quite common throughout some suburbs, as are native rats and mice that live in the greenery and feed off the compost bins. Black rats are more common in some suburbs, and termites are an enormous problem in other suburbs. There’s a whole range of issues: redbacks, funnelwebs, termites, and larger ants.

DIY Pest Control – The Cheapest Option with the Most Expensive
Headache
As homeowners, we naturally want the best result for the
least money, and so we always try a do-it-yourself approach first. But this
never works, and there is a good reason why. By the time you see the first sign of pests, the pests have become established in a protected nest and the nest is overcrowded. Pests don’t show themselves in daylight unless their numbers have grown to a point of overcrowding.

By using a low-cost, supermarket solution, you manage to kill a few of the
pests, but the main nest remains untouched. You can keep spraying for as long as you like, but until you’ve found the nests and destroyed the breeding colony, the problem will return in a very short time. In the meantime, the pests do more and more damage.

Business Owners are Responsible for Clean Premises
If you run an office, a restaurant or an accommodation facility, you are simply not safe with a supermarket solution. There are laws that require you to fumigate and treat pests safely, and the do-it-yourself approach is neither safe nor effective. Besides, if your customers, business guests or potential renters see signs of any pests, you can lose ten times the amount of the professional solution.

An ant, albeit an insignificant creature, can bring down even the largest animal. This is attested to by the effect that red Brazilian fire ants have when they invade the surrounding population. They devour everything in their wake and no creature is left standing. Their first point of attack is usually to get into your eyes and ears, incapacitating you. When your ability to see and hear is taken away, then you are a sitting duck, and death is imminent. While the garden variety ant is relatively less harmful, it can spell a wave of devastation when left unattended. That is why you should ensure that you make a point of getting rid of the ants as soon as you notice their presence in your compound. The twist to this is that you should also get rid of the ants that are underground. Therefore, you should get an expert to do it. That is why you should think seriously about hiring a competent ant exterminator to deal with your problem. Our Pest Control Company is one such company.

We have all the right people that will take care of your problem effectively. When dealing with a full-scale ant invasion, you cannot do it on your own, no matter how resilient you are. You will need a helping hand to do so. Think of us as that helping hand that will help you take care of the invasion problem that you have. When you employ us, we will remain faithful and ensure that no stone is left unturned in the quest to rid your compound of the ants. To this end, we will use all the necessary equipment to eliminate the ant infestation. You can trust us to use the recommended pesticides that will completely rid you of your infestation, giving you a clean bill of health. At our company, you have access to the most experienced people in the pest disposal arena. When you ask others about most of the ant exterminator companies, you will often hear of our satisfied customers.

Mosquito Pest Control

One sign that summer is here is the mosquitoes, especially if you live in the country near ponds and wooded areas. Nothing is worse than enjoying a beautiful evening with your family and hearing that light buzzing in your ear, and then the biting begins. When they start, they don’t seem to want to stop. Well, there are several options to help you get rid of those mosquitoes:
* Mosquito Nets – These are simple nets spread over the bed and thus act as a shield against mosquitoes by restricting their invasion. *
* Mosquito Repellents – These are an easy and affordable way to curb the insect. These repellents are available in the form of coils that are burned, and the poisonous smoke coming out of these helps kill the mosquitoes. These days, a liquid repellent in a spray can is used readily during camping and outdoor activities. Repellent is used to keep bugs away from us. Liquid repellents are more like electric diffusers, which start diffusing the chemical in the air when connected to an electric current. The chemical kills the mosquitoes.
* Mosquito Traps – These devices are generally used in larger areas such as convention halls and outdoor lawns where small devices can help little. These traps have fluorescent lights that attract flying insects, and when the insect gets nearer to the trap, the electric current pulls it inside and kills it.
* Mosquito Magnets – These are a revolutionary concept in the world of mosquito traps. These have become the most widely used devices due to their efficiency and the fact that they are readily available in the market.

The market has quite a variety of mosquito pest control products that can help you to get rid of these little monsters breeding in your yard, such as a Mosquito Dunk. One does not need to do much; toss it into your standing water or pond. If you want to save yourself the hassle of going to the market and choosing a pest control product or a mosquito killer, look into a pest control company. These are skilled professionals with all the necessary tools and gadgets to control the breeding of insects and pests. These pest control services can usually be hired for a nominal fee and can be an effective and lasting form of mosquito pest control.

Suppose you plan to get rid of mosquitoes using external means. In that case, it is essential to keep the following things in mind before using any Skeetervac or a Mosquito Killer:
* Ensure that the chemical used is safe for humans and can be thrown in the air.
* Keep these devices away from children’s reach, and clean your hands thoroughly when using them.
* Ensure that the correct quantity of liquid diffuser is used or the coil is burnt. An excessive dose can be harmful for you and your family as well.
* Do not close all the windows and doors when the chemicals are in use; it can store the chemicals in the air without any outlet to disperse, which could choke the area.

Using some home remedies to control mosquitoes is a great idea, and even better if you get professional help. However, most notably, one must understand that the devices and solutions will only be successful if the root cause is addressed. Ensuring your surroundings are clean and hygienic is a great way to ensure mosquito pest control.

To get complete protection from mosquito bites, millions of people utilize chemical-based mosquito repellents around the world. However, the most common insect repellents and bug sprays used in many homes may be poisonous and can produce health problems in people, particularly children. Some chemicals are even known to bring about genetic damage to animals and the enumerable toxic issues listed in humans. Constant and heavy exposure to chemical repellents can also cause breathlessness, constant fatigue, muscle and joint pain, generalized physical weakness, memory loss and persistent headaches. Prolonged skin exposure to these chemicals produces skin allergies, eye irritations, redness, skin discoloration and inflammation. People naturally develop tremors and shortness of breath when overexposed to the strong chemicals in these repellents.

In the case of insect repellents, children are the most vulnerable group. Though the chemical ingredients in these chemical-based mosquito repellents can efficiently kill the mosquitoes in your home and locality, they can seriously harm your domestic animals, fish and even plants. Exposure to chemicals makes young children susceptible to changes in their brain chemistry. This change is because children’s skin tends to absorb more chemicals. They also pose many adverse effects on the lives of pets and the destruction of the ecological balance of nature.

Concerning the chemicals in the environment, individuals have different tolerances. In addition, this can harshly result in impaired growth and affect the development of the nervous system. DEET is a registered chemical ingredient that forms the active component of every chemical-based mosquito repellent. Permethrin is another chemical that, when combined with DEET, can cause motor deficits and chronic memory dysfunction. Some DEET repellents also contain toxic chemical substances like isopropyl alcohol and ethyl that are highly harmful to children.

When applied on topical areas, chemical repellents that include DEET quickly go through into the skin to our bloodstream and cause adverse health hazards to our central nervous system. The human gut also quickly absorbs DEET to cause further health hazards. Today, many botanical and natural mosquito repellents that effectively ward off mosquitoes without causing any health hazards are available in the market. You can test some natural repellents with essential oils like citronella, lavender, lemon, eucalyptus, etc., rather than use harmful chemical-based mosquito repellents.

Using a Maxx Air Flow fan 24 Control Mosquitos

The Orange one from The Home Depot is an excellent fan. You can clean an area in a few nights, breaking an uncontrolled population cycle. This option requires 250 watts of electricity but does not require any pesticides. The screens serve a dual purpose; they also collect dust and fine particulates, eventually forming a mat of air junk. The screen provides an easy cleaning option and prevents dire things from entering the bearings of the induction motor. The solar option uses a 27-watt blower fan and works excellently for pigeon and chicken coops, animal kennels, and outdoor porches. Place the fans near infested or high-traffic areas.
KEEP FANS DRY, no rain. Always Unplug when servicing screens or moving. Place the inlet side towards people or animals so you suck the mosquitos away. This also sucks in carbon dioxide creating an attraction trail for the mosquitos to follow, sticking them to the back of the fan. I have a few more options in the works:

WATER COLLECTION NESTS
Leaves decompose by placing them and yard debris in the bottom of a container and filling it with water, providing an attractive spot for mosquitos to place their larvae. Once visible, you MUST collect the larvae with a fine fish net and dry them in the sun. This option prevents mosquitos from nesting in ditches and other areas where you cannot stop the cycle. YOU MUST clean daily, or you create a mosquito farm.

BATS: I have a DIY VIDEO on how to build a bat house and tips on getting bats to hang out. Bats feed on mosquitos, helping to cut down on the pests.

If you’re going to be outdoors, chances are you will run into a mosquito or two. Or you’re one of those unfortunate people who attract every mosquito within a five-mile radius. Either way, you don’t want to get bitten, so you need an effective strategy for preventing mosquito bites while running. If you’re out running, the activity that protects you also makes you a more attractive meal for mosquitoes. You see, the movement and air currents you create as you move will tend to deflect mosquitoes. Unfortunately, that healthy perspiration you’ve worked up tends to attract mosquitoes simultaneously. So, how can you prevent mosquito bites while running? The first step is to choose your running time carefully. Mosquitoes are most active at dusk and dawn, so avoid running at these times if possible. Next, select your route. Mosquitoes need standing water to breed, so avoid routes that take you by stagnant water, such as water standing in ditches or poorly maintained water features. In addition, mosquitoes can’t bite skin they can’t reach, so cover as much of your skin as is practical given the weather conditions. Light colors aren’t only good for keeping you visible while running, but they’re also thought to be less attractive to mosquitoes. If you live where mosquitoes are a problem, consider mosquito-repellent clothing for your outdoor time. And while sweat is an attractive scent for many mosquitoes, so are other scents, such as those found in scented hair and body products. Use unscented products before you go out for a run. However, your best prevention against mosquito bites is to wear a repellent. In general, DEET is the most effective repellent. You can buy it in various concentrations and products, including some with sunscreen. Just be sure to read the labels carefully and follow directions regarding application and removal, as DEET can be dangerous if ingested. You can also buy repellents derived from natural oils, but they are less effective than DEET and require more frequent applications, a distinct disadvantage if you run for long periods. One type of repellent that won’t work for you is the clip-on repellent that uses a fan to circulate chemical mosquito repellent around you. Because you’ll be moving, you won’t be in any place long enough for a sufficient amount of repellent to build up around you to give you any protection. While running alone may be enough to keep you ahead of mosquitoes, there are other insects you need to protect yourself against, including ticks and deer flies, particularly if you are running on wooded trails. Protect yourself from these other insect hazards by following the above precautions even if you won’t be in a heavily mosquito-infested area.

==================gtg

Ah yes, the joys of Summer, and along with them come the little biting bugs! Mosquitoes, no-seeums, ticks and more are definitely creatures we all want to repel from ourselves and our environment. If you have been paying attention, and probably if you are reading this and particularly if you are a parent, you have DEET (N, N-diethyl-3-methyl-benzamide ). It is now thought to be toxic to a child’s developing nervous system (and possibly adults as well). Several scientific papers say it’s not, but do you want to take the chance? Something causes thousands of children yearly to end up at the doctor’s office after being sprayed with commercial insect repellents.

Want to make your own organic, natural formula? Here’s how to do it, and even use essential oils to repel mosquitoes and the like from your living space. Essential oils and aromatics have been used throughout the ages to repel mosquitoes and other biting bugs. You’ll find one or more essential oils as the active ingredients in all over-the-counter natural formulas. Making your own formulation is truly easy to do and can be cost-effective if you’re going to go through a significant amount over the year. Making a lotion or spray is as simple as measuring essential oils by the drop into your base, be it an organic cream or liquid such as witch hazel. One of the best things about making your own is that you can control all the ingredients and make a completely organic formula if you like! You can use these same oils in an aromatherapy diffuser to repel insects from your living room or even your bedroom as you sleep. Just set the diffuser on low and fill your room with one of the oils, or a great-smelling blend of oils and maybe you (or your kids) won’t have to worry about getting bitten all night.

So are you ready to mix up your first batch of topical mosquito repellent? You’ll need to decide whether you want a spray or a lotion. For either of these, the recommended concentration of essential oils is between five and ten percent, which means anywhere from 120 drops to 240 drops of total essential oil in four ounces of base. To help you choose: A lotion will probably remain effective for a longer time after application; though the spray can be easier to use, you can spray it on your clothes. For your base for a spray, you can use rubbing alcohol (perhaps not the finest scent, but it is inexpensive), vodka (yes, this time, you want cheap alcohol! ), or witch hazel (a natural plant extract based in water probably the easiest on the skin, but does not hold the oils in suspension as well, just requiring more of a good shake before each use). For a lotion, any unscented lotion will do, and there are many organic unscented creams available through natural product suppliers.

Which essential oils to use? The most common ones in many natural repellents are Geranium or Rose Geranium. Geranium is nice because the aroma appeals to many people, so you won’t mind using it. Then you’ll find Citronella, Lemongrass, Cedarwood and some mint, Spearmint or Peppermint. But the Grandaddy essential oil for mosquito repelling is Catnip. Research was released a few years ago that noted Catnip to be ten times more effective than DEET! In all the natural formulas, you’ll find a blend of oils, as several oils combined will likely be more effective than any single one alone. The recipes are very simple. Find a four-ounce container of your choice. A spray bottle or something with a pump top, depending on your choice of base. Fill this about 9/10ths of the way up with your base, be it lotion, vodka, etc. Here, a measuring pipette is very helpful: four ounces = 120ml, so 5% = 6ml and 10% = 12ml. To help you measure, if you don’t have a measuring device, there are approximately 20 drops per milliliter. For a synergy formula of 10%, use 6ml Geranium, 3ml Citronella, 2ml Lemongrass and 1ml Cedarwood… or just use 6ml Catnip! We were unsure which would work better because essential oil blends were not tested. It would be fun to experiment here yourself. You might find a blend you love the aroma of and the bugs detest!

So, you’d like to repel insects from your home, office, or other enclosed space? Find yourself a quality, high-output aromatherapy diffuser. A nebulizing diffuser that does not mix the oils with water is best, as you can output a high concentration of essential oils in the air if you find it necessary. Add the essential oils of your choice into the reservoir and run the unit for several minutes. In this case, you might use just Citronella essential oil, as it is of very low cost. One prominent author talks about leaving tissues with drops of Peppermint essential oil on the windowsills (obviously, she didn’t have screens in this room! ) as a deterrent. Because so many possibilities can work, you might want to experiment here, trying to find the least amount of essential oil necessary for your needs. Well, there it is! It is one of the simplest, most effective means of aromatherapy. By using essential oils this way, you can alleviate your worries about whether or not DEET is harmful to you and your loved ones. Essential oils are a great treasure of natural healing. If you haven’t used them yet, perhaps this can be your launching pad into a new world of natural medicine.

Preparing for the Winter Months: Gardening in October

When you feel that first solid bite in the breeze and you see the songbirds winging their way south, and the trees are bursting with fire-laden hues, you know you can’t be spending the weekend curled up by the fireplace with a good book. Not for long. While the weather is still gardener-friendly, you must shorten your “to-do” lists for late fall and early winter. Now is the time to attack your lawn and garden by planting your spring bulbs, buying and maintaining your trees and shrubs, doing your late autumn lawn care, using common-sense watering strategies, building a compost bin and making your own compost, controlling the many common garden pests, and winning at the weed-whacking war before the sudden onset of the fickle, cold and all-enveloping winter season.

Planting Your Perennials
Plant the spring-flowering bulbs until the ground becomes frozen, and prepare your tender but tenacious perennials for the coming seasonal changes. Remember that in the milder climates, bulbs can still be divided and transplanted. Plant hardy bulbs anytime before the soil freezes, but it’s best to plant them early enough so the root systems can grow before winter arrives. In some climates, you can plant until Thanksgiving or even Christmas. Late-planted bulbs develop roots in the spring and may bloom late. But they’ll arrive on time by next year. Be sure to position the bulbs at their proper depth. They must be planted so their bottoms rest at a depth two-and-a-half times each bulb’s diameter. In well-drained or sandy soil, plant an inch or two deeper to increase life and discourage rodents. Bulbs look best planted in groups. So use a garden spade instead of a bulb planter, encouraging you to plant singly. Set the
bulbs side-by-side and plant groups in holes the size of a dinner plate, or dig curving trenches and position the bulbs in the bottom. Water your bulbs after planting to stimulate the roots to grow. Interplanting creates maximum flowering in a tight space and eliminates bare spots when “dead” bulbs don’t grow. For a succession of blooms and foliage, plant perennials around the bulb holes. As the bulb foliage dwindles, the perennials will grow, camouflaging the bulbs’ yellowing leaves.

Choosing Your Trees and Shrubs
October is a wonderful time to shop for trees and shrubs at the nursery. They’re now showing their best and brightest colors there. You can plant them now and over the next few months so that strong, healthy roots will grow over the winter. You must carefully plan your landscape to choose which trees to plant to provide proper lawn coverage and the most beautiful scenery. When an appropriate tree is purchased, selected and planted in the right place, it frames your home and beautifies your land, making both more enjoyable. Trees can
greatly increase the resale value of property and even save you on energy costs. Visualize your new trees at maturity while realizing that some trees develop as much width as height if given enough space to develop. Picture each tree’s size and shape in relation to the
overall landscape and the size and style of your home. Trees peaking at forty feet do best near or behind a one-story home. Taller trees blend with two-story houses and large lots. Trees under thirty feet tall suit streetside locations, small lots, and enclosed areas such as decks and patios.

There are two basic types of trees you will be considering forpurchase. Deciduous trees include large shade trees that frame areas with a cool summer canopy and a colorful autumn rack of superior colors. In winter, their silhouettes provide passage for sunlight. These trees can shade a southern exposure from summertime heat, and allow winter sunlight to warm the house. Evergreen trees have dense green foliage that suits them for planting as privacy screens, windbreaks or backdrops for flowering trees and shrubs. But they are handsome enough to stand alone. They do not lose their leaves, called needles, and provide year-round shelter and color. You should be sure to
include a wide variety of both kinds of trees in your landscape to avoid losing them to diseases or pests. Buy disease and
pest-resistant trees. When buying a tree, look for healthy green leaves if it has any, and well-developed top growth. Branches should be unbroken and balanced around the trunk, and on dormant or bare-root stock, they should be pliable. Examine the roots, which should form a balanced, fully-formed mass. Reject trees with broken or dried-out roots. Avoid trees showing signs of disease, pests or stress, such as wilting, discoloration, misshapen leaves, scarred bark and nonvigorous growth. Consider the size of the tree. Young trees have a better success rate when planted, and most flowering trees grow quickly, so start with less expensive, smaller specimens. And be sure to buy all your plants from a good quality nursery with a decent reputation.

Don’t prune a newly planted tree unless its form needs improving. Prune flowering trees in spring, after blooming, to correct unsightly problems. Crab apple trees are an exception and should be pruned in late winter. But you can remove diseased or dead branches any time of the year, and much of this is done during the winter. Apply fertilizer when needed in the second and subsequent growing seasons. Mulch to conserve moisture, reduce weeds and eliminate mowing near the tree. Spread wood chips or bark four inches deep and as wide as the tree’s canopy around the base. But don’t mulch poorly drained, oversaturated soil. Wrap tree trunks after planting to prevent winter damage from weather and pests. And stake young trees, especially bare-root trees and evergreens, to fortify them against strong
winds. Stake loosely allows the tree to bend slightly, and remove stakes after one year.

Shrubs are often planted and used merely as foundation plants or privacy screens. But shrubbery foliage is vastly more versatile and can go a long way toward livening up your landscaping. Countless varieties of gorgeously hued and beautifully leafed shrubs are available through nurseries and garden catalogs. You must start by learning what varieties thrive in your area. Try visiting your local arboretum, where you may view different kinds of shrubs and decide whether they fit your gardening plans. Decide what overall look you want at different times of the year, and then find out which shrubs will be flowering, producing berries or sporting colorful foliage at those times.Compare what you find to the inventory at your local nursery, and ask the professionals who work there lots of questions. Understand the characteristics of each shrub before you plant it. Flowering and fruit-bearing shrubs enhance a new home, but
improper pruning and care will ruin the beauty of all your hard work. Some shrubs bloom on second or third-year wood. If you’re
maintaining a shrub because you’re hoping it’s going to blossom, but you’re cutting off first-year wood every year, it’s never
going to bloom. Some varieties are a foot tall at maturity, while others reach over fifteen feet. A large shrub will usually require more pruning. Also determine the plant’s ability to tolerate various soil conditions, wind, sun and shade. You don’t put a plant
sensitive to the elements in an open area. Use hardier plants to shelter it. Not all shrubs work in every climate. Witch hazel, for example, blooms in fall or winter and is hardiest where minimum temperatures range from thirty degrees below zero to twenty degrees above. It would not be a good choice for very dry, hot climates. But some shrubs such as buddleia, hydrangea and spirea
perform well across a wide range of growing zones. Most shrubs are relatively fast-growing. Those who follow the shape and scale of a home will do more to make a home site look established. For example, if you have a long, ranch-style house the shrubs should be rectangular. If you have a two-story home, you’ll want some leafy shrubs that are a little more upright. You could try buying larger shrubs instead of trees because they don’t cost that much more than smaller shrubs, and they help a landscape look fuller. Larger shrubs will go through some shock recovery, but typically, it doesn’t take a shrub as long as a tree to bounce back. Position shrubs as if they are full-size, leaving ample room for them to fill out. Viburnum, barberry, honeysuckle and hydrangea are good choices to surround almost any house.

Late Autumn Lawn Care
Aerate lawns in mid- to late-October while the grass can recover easily. If you core aerate, make your cores three inches deep, spaced about every six inches. Break up the cores and spread them around. If your lawn needs it, thatch and follow with a fall or winter fertilizer. Even if thatching isn’t needed, your lawn will be happy for a dusting of fertilizer to help roots gain strength before the spring growing season. Overseed bald patches or whole lawns as needed. Rake and compost leaves as they fall, as well as grass clippings from mowing. If left on the ground now, they’ll make a wet, slippery mess that’s inviting to pests. Good gardeners use heavy-duty molded plastic for shaping neat edges of beds. You can buy these from garden centers, nurseries and mail-order suppliers in rolls of flat, four- to six-inch-tall plastic, and the edging installs easily. You’ll save yourself countless hours of removing grass and weeds that otherwise creep into your beds.

Home Inspection

The benefits of a home inspection before purchasing a new home are well-known and documented. Still, you may not have considered the advantages a home inspection report can provide even if your home is not for sale. There are a number of inspections and tests available for homeowners that can help you anticipate problems and even protect your family’s safety. Besides a thorough home inspection, experts recommend testing your home for mold, radon, asbestos, lead paint, and pest infestation to ensure your home is safe and in optimal condition. Customers can seek a free home energy analysis from local companies partnered with the utility company in your area. General home inspection reports provide valuable information about the condition of your home. That information can be vital to you as a homeowner, no matter how long you’ve owned your house. Scheduling a professional home inspection will give you a clear assessment of the various systems in your home, including an estimated time frame for replacement and a general idea of what kinds of repairs may be necessary. You can plan for repairs and replacements of older systems in advance, allowing a measure of financial control and preventing unexpected breakdowns.

Mold
The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has identified toxic mold as a health risk, especially for people suffering from allergies or asthma. Mold can grow almost anywhere in your home and be difficult to spot since it prefers damp, dark areas. A mold inspection can determine whether toxic mold presents a health risk for you and your family and offer options for remedying the problem.

Radon
HUD recommends that homeowners test their property for dangerous levels of radon. Radon, a colorless and odorless gas is radioactive and can cause lung cancer in high dosages. Professional radon testers can measure the radon level in your home and, if high radon levels exist, assist you in repairing the problem before it causes serious health problems. Home testing kits are also available, and some do-it-yourself kits for radon remediation can produce satisfactory results if used properly.

Asbestos
Mostly found in older homes, asbestos insulation can also cause cancer. While this problem is sometimes found during a general home inspection, asbestos remediation companies have expertise in identifying and removing asbestos insulation safely and without further risk to you and your family. Because of the toxic nature of asbestos and the difficulty in removing it completely, this is not a project you should try to undertake on your own.

Lead Paint

Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint; this can cause lead poisoning and cause serious medical problems, including brain damage and birth defects. It’s estimated that 1.7 million children may be affected by some degree of lead poisoning. Lead-based paint inspections are comparatively inexpensive; if your home was built before 1978, it’s worth your while to schedule this inspection and ensure your home’s safety.

Termite and Pest Inspection
To preserve the structural integrity of your home, termite inspections are an important part of your yearly maintenance schedule. If caught early, termites and other pests can be stopped before they do serious damage. General home inspections do not always cover insect damage, so a separate inspection is a good idea. If no infestation is found, most companies can recommend a preventive program to keep your home free from these pests and the damage they can do. Some electric provider companies provide free walk-through energy audits for their customers. Especially geared toward promoting energy efficiency, these audits will check on the condition of your heating and cooling system, insulation, ductwork, and the general condition of door and window frames. The company will then suggest improving your home’s energy efficiency. This service can save you hundreds of dollars each year in energy costs. Knowing the condition of your home will allow you to plan improvements and repairs in advance. Additionally, some types of home inspections can save you money, preserve your home’s condition and even protect your family’s health: all good reasons to have your home thoroughly tested and inspected as soon as possible. These small investments can reap enormous rewards in health, safety, and comfort for you and your family.

Bed bugs are among the many typical pests which can annoyingly infest houses. It’s not just houses that they can make their living quarters but also other places such as hospitals, hotels, motels, and inns. With how they can adversely affect your quality of living, they sure must be thoroughly eliminated. Of course, eradicating bed bugs isn’t at all easy. Still, it needs to be done if you do not want to be their blood bank. Apart from that, their bites can cause swelling and itchiness, which might be annoying. They can also leave stains on fabrics, walls, and floors, making your home look untidy and un-maintained.

After World War II, it is said that bed bugs had been almost eliminated with a pest control technique that uses DDT, a well-known pesticide. Even so, almost is not always enough, and now bed bugs are back, this time conquering the rest of the world. Their spread to other previously bed-bug-free countries is primarily due to increased international travel. Unfortunately, today, pesticides can not ensure the 100 percent effectiveness of the bed bugs elimination process. Somehow, those pests had learned how to resist the chemical’s effects. Apart from that, it is not advised to use chemical-based products as they may be dangerous to both the environment and human health. And so, to be exempted from their adverse effects, resort instead to safer or greener pest control methods. Or better yet, prevent their infestation. That way, you can ensure that no ill effect will befall you or your house. How do you do that? Here are the general steps.

• Implement effective and regular cleaning. Doing so will warn you of their presence and keep them from returning after the removal process. In particular, with cleaning, you’ll be able to see stains and smell a sweet but spicy odor which indicates the pests’ presence. If you do the cleaning regularly, you’ll be able to detect them immediately enough to avoid worse things from happening.
• Cover or seal cracks and crevices. Those are spots where these minor and flat bugs hide, waiting for the night to start their attack. Also, on those spots is where they digest their meal. To cover or seal them is to prevent the bugs from having a place to hide and thus stop them from staying over your home.
• Check before getting outside furniture in. This ought to be done to almost everything from the outside house that bed bugs can inhabit. Significantly, this goes for those items that had been brought from travels. By inspecting if they’re, in fact, free of those bugs, you can prevent any of their adverse effects. In closing, bed bugs can ordinarily cause considerable damage and discomfort. And so, it is logical to have them eliminated. Still, it would be much better to keep bed bugs at bay instead, as it could save you from more tiring and exhausting work. Preventing bed bugs is way easier than having them eliminated. And so, keep them at bay to avoid the hassle of implementing steps to kill those bed bugs.

Do you think you’re a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) type of person? Do you enjoy watching DIY programs on cable channels and think it is possible to deal with any project? Have you ever before seen a DIY talk associated with termite control? No, and you also almost certainly never will. Why? Simply because you will discover too many roadblocks to finding an excellent and effective treatment method for the homeowner. At this time, there are two distinct approaches to termite control. The first is the traditional barrier treatment method. The barrier method’s purpose would be to safeguard the house by simply encircling your entire home and the cellar with a chemical barrier. This includes injecting an insecticide into the earth at least 4 feet deep around the cellar and under the basement slab. A home built on a slab or crawlspace is taken care of much the same, except a lesser amount of insecticide must be used. Property owners shouldn’t attempt barrier treatments independently because special tools are necessary for an adequate remedy. Injection rods, concrete drills, and a big container that has a pump are generally so costly it costs prohibitive for the homeowner. The other reason is property owners do not possess the abilities and experience to perform a successful treatment. I certainly would not want any novice carrying out his or her first termite treatment at my residence. Still, I would specifically use a person with specialized education and experience. Various people think using liquid or granular insecticides on the dirt surrounding the outside of the home will guard their property against termites. This can be useful when controlling a few pests, but this isn’t effective against termites. The following method of termite control is the employment of baiting systems.

The aim of the bait is always to kill the colony and also indirectly guard the house. At this time, the baiting systems with the best possibility of eradicating the colony have an insect growth regulator (IGR). The worker termites carry the bait back to the colony, where it gets passed to additional termites. The growth regulator will not kill the queen or adult workers but eliminate immature termites by disrupting the molting process. When the adult worker termites die a natural death, there aren’t any young termites to take their position. Without workers, the colony gradually starves to death. This technique might be easy enough for homeowners to work with, but not one IGR bait can be found for homeowners to buy. The source is securely controlled by manufacturers who only work with pest management professionals. Pest management professionals employ several other tricks, but, at best, they merely suppress the colony. They really should be only utilized jointly with a sound barrier treatment. There is one non-IGR bait that is in hardware stores. Nevertheless, this product’s label advises users to have their houses inspected by a pest management specialist. Also, the label states the bait is not designed to be used instead of a liquid treatment when termites are found infesting houses. In contrast to twenty years ago, deciding on termite treatment is more difficult today because all termite control organizations will not utilize the same treatment method. Homeowners must have enough termites and termite control to help them decide which treatment is ideal for them.

Birds ought to be considered principal allies with the garden enthusiast in his or her efforts to control pest insects that damage the garden plants. But, the more birds which visit the garden, either as permanent residents or as temporary sojourners on their migratory path, the less the infestations of pest organisms. It’s been estimated that a bird and her mate, which nest two times each year, parenting about ten chicks, ingest a significant volume of some 150 pounds of pests, such as aphids, eggs, and caterpillars. That converts numerically into millions of problems. Indeed, not all birds are primarily insectivores, but most species feed on pests at those times of the year when additional protein sources are needed. Birds will not eradicate pest bugs from the garden. Realistically, they shouldn’t do so because eradication is not the aim of intelligent pest management.

Instead, the goal of the gardener ought to be to limit the population of pest and disease organisms to the point that the damage they inflict is tolerable. There are two primary reasons why this relatively modest approach to pest control is the more commonly accepted one today, as opposed to the more conventional method based on pesticides. Firstly, it’s impossible to eliminate the bugs for a long. Applying pesticides is always short-term, as many insect species produce over 20 generations a year. At the same time, the pesticides could eliminate predatory and parasitic bugs that themselves control the pest populations.
Moreover, birds and other wildlife escape from an environment swimming in pesticides, resulting in less restraint on the insects in future generations.

Conversely, while there are multiple active steps to attract birds to the garden, such as providing food and water for drinking and bathing, the most robust method is to resist applying pesticides, other than in the most extreme circumstances. It’s best, therefore, not to see bugs as enemies but as a crucial food source for birds. It might be argued that several birds themselves might be looked at as bugs. There’s hardly a species at all which directly damages plants. Including the woodpecker is only seeking bark pests and minimizes the amount of these nasty bugs. The issue surrounds fruit trees and other crop plants, which certain birds may perhaps devour at particular periods of the year.

Nevertheless, this is not a good reason to discourage birds from visiting your garden. The correct answer is to safeguard the fruit by such means as netting or, preferably, by using decoy plants. This is why as large a number and variety as possible of fruit-bearing plants should be included in the garden structure. The idea is not to provide fruit for humans but rather for the birds, thereby saving a substantial amount of the desirable fruit from being nibbled by the birds. Examples include the species of hackberry, juniper, oak, berberis, cotoneaster, pyracantha, viburnum, and many more.

In most respects, birds in the wild are generally very advantageous and desirable. Still, as with almost all wildlife categories, you’ll also find bad apples in the bird world. A few of the most detrimental offenders within the bird world are those who have found their way to North America from different regions due to human actions, transporting them outside their own “natural” habitats. Each time a bird, or any other living organism, has resided in a geographic region for perhaps millions of ages, that environment adapts to allow that organism to fit in. It does not overpower the other organisms close to it with their existence, and we generally refer to this scenario as a “balance” in nature. Things sometimes upset that balance, ideally for the short term, yet for the most part, life rolls along smoothly.

As human beings increased their traveling from continent to continent throughout generations past, they became the means for living things – plants and animals – to rapidly go to brand-new locations. Often this was a strategic attempt by emigrants who had been relocating permanently to new properties inside a brand new land, and they took along many of the things they felt they would need to survive there. This frequently was seed products, grains, and plants for his or her gardens or food, for their animals, as well as additional functions. The vegetation in North America transformed substantially. Birds were likewise relocated from Europe to North America by individuals who failed to recognize the probable effect that exotic invaders might have within a part of the world in which they did not belong. A few of the birds that cause people the most problems right now are among these immigrants, including the Pigeon, the Starling, and the English Sparrow. It may well come as a surprise to many folks to hear these three varieties of birds are foreign invaders since they have been in the USA for so long and are so prevalent. That, however, is one testament to their invasive actions. Starlings were released in 1890 as one species in a group of birds from Europe that were purposely removed in New York’s Central Park. The pigeon was previously tamed and used for food, sport, or other human purposes thousands of years ago and introduced in North America in the 1600′s for those purposes. The English Sparrow, generally known as the House Sparrow, is yet another native of Europe and Asia that was introduced to the U.S. and purposely released. It seems to favor existing near human activity and is likely to make nests in or on our houses. By their eating and nesting behaviors, these birds might compete with other native birds and, in this manner, could pose a risk to the natural order of animals in North America.

Yet, birds may also be a danger to people and our property, and we may summarize the reason for that in one word – feces. The waste of birds is a perfect growth medium for many bacteria, viruses, and fungi, which may be pathogenic to people. When we have accumulations of pigeon waste in attics, decks, roofs, or even ledges, we can also have these kinds of disease organisms there. If the fecal material dries and becomes airborne, we stand a greater possibility of inhaling a problem. A few critical illnesses linked to bird waste include histoplasmosis, candidiasis, cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, and the like. Bird fecal matter furthermore often contains Salmonella, and whenever the waste ends up in water that people ingest, this severe food contamination could result. Many more pathogens of bacteria, protozoa, viruses, and fungi are also linked to them. Birds are also home to many arthropod parasites, such as bird mites and bedbugs. Whenever these birds are closely associated with people, they often expose those biting mites and bugs into the building. Most of these problems aren’t unique to these three varieties of birds; however, because of their numbers and their close association with people and our residences, these birds frequently pose the most significant health danger to people. The intention of this information isn’t to cause us to fear or even detest birds but to comprehend that there can be drawbacks to permitting them to live in and on our homes. Effectively managed birds, such as racing and homing pigeons kept by hobbyists, could be well preserved without parasites and in their cabinets where they cannot bother people. The “feral” pigeons currently reside in semi-wild flocks that pose problems. Beyond the possible health threats they pose, we all have seen the mess they can make on the ground or perhaps other surfaces beneath their nests. It is not unreasonable to advocate that it is more appropriate to encourage birds to build their nests someplace other than underneath the eaves of our own home, inside the attic, or on ledges we provide close to outdoor patio covers and other horizontal surfaces.

One essential idea here, though, concerns swallows, which create their nests from mud and love to place those nests beneath the eaves of buildings. It’s common to find private residences with solid lines of these mud nests alongside several sides of the house, with many swallows now taking up places where persons also live. Swallows are protected birds, so you are unable to harm them, and you are unable to disturb their nest once it’s established and completed since, by that time, there will probably be eggs or even young birds in this nest. Once the nest is finished, you have to, by law, allow them to complete their cycle of raising their young, and only once the young birds have finally left is it possible to take out the mud nests. Given that you may not want these nests in your residence, you have two options. The first is to dissuade the nest building when the adult birds commence it by scraping or even washing the beginnings of that nest right away, hoping that the birds ultimately go somewhere else. The next option would be to prevent the birds’ access to the nest sites, and for this, you might work with a licensed pest control business that knows bird management. Many physical products might be installed in homes that will keep the bird from having access to the locations they want to roost or nest. For swallows, this may be plastic netting fitted so that it doesn’t detract from the look and feel of the house, endures for several years, and causes no harm or distress to the birds. A similar netting could be great for closing off locations that pigeons are going to. You can often find big retail stores with this netting installed overhead, eliminating birds’ ability, such as sparrows, to roost on overhead pipes. Other physical products effective at bird exclusion include plastic material or wire-pronged strips attached to horizontal ledges to ensure that birds can no longer land on the shelf. The professional could also use stainless steel wire, strung securely along ridges and raised several inches off the surface to stop the bird from using that ledge. There are a variety of other ingenious devices that work well but pose no peril to birds that may contact them. The objective must not be to kill the birds, for that would be a very short-term solution anyway. If your home is attractive to the first group of birds, it will stay appealing as long as other birds can find their way onto it. Physical exclusion of the birds is your most effective long-term solution, including ensuring that attic vents are in good condition to stop birds from entering this enclosed area. This good building maintenance will even prevent the entry of other unwanted animals, such as bats, squirrels, or rodents.

Mosquito Control Options

Mosquitoes are annoying with their buzzing and biting and can cause sickness and disease too. The only requirement for a mosquito problem is to have an outdoor area and rain. They will take care of the rest. People all over the world regularly fight mosquitoes. The problem with mosquitoes is that if they carry disease, it doesn’t matter whether you have one or millions. You can’t tell by looking whether a mosquito is infected or not. So what is the best way to proceed? You may have limited or many options depending on your location and mosquito problem. You should check with the health department in your area for suggestions and find restrictions. Natural control methods include using citronella or other plants to keep mosquitoes away. These can be planted in gardens and flowerbeds or placed in pots around the patio. They will generally grow very well on their own with little maintenance. You don’t have to do anything with them to keep mosquitoes away. They just naturally put off a slight citrus scent that keeps mosquitoes away. Pest control products include flytraps or fly tape. Mosquitoes are attracted to the traps or tape and cannot escape. For severe problems, chemicals can be used subject to local regulations. These can harm the environment and are discouraged for small problem areas.

Electronic pest control, using units that detect, deter, or eliminate bugs, requires power sources to make the teams operate. These include the familiar bug zapper that electrocutes the insects as they fly into the electronic grids. Propane models release carbon dioxide to attract mosquitoes and trap them. After all, it is our bodies giving off carbon dioxide that scientists tell us the mosquitoes are homing in on. To keep mosquitoes from getting established, save the environment unfavorable to them. Do not allow water to stand where they can breed. It only takes a small amount of water to produce lots of mosquitoes. After a rain, empty all containers that hold water. Change out pets’ water bowls regularly with fresh water. Unfortunately, even if you keep your yard free from breeding conditions, it only takes one neighbor to let mosquitoes breed, and then they cover the whole neighborhood. You must learn to control mosquitoes, or they can take over your environment and your neighbor’s.

Controlling Dog & Cat Fleas

Dog and cat fleas are the same in many ways. For instance, their appearance and behavior are similar, and cat and dog fleas can breed off of one another. Meaning cat fleas can produce off of dogs and vice-versa. They are so similar that they are defined and spoken about under the same heading. Of all fleas, the most common household fleas come from dogs and cats. Most of the time, their owners are unaware of the fleas, but if there are large numbers of fleas on the pets, they cannot help but become noticeable. Dog and cat fleas will also show up in a home if infected pets are allowed to come into sleep. They can then spread to areas around the pet beds and may be noticed when owners are walking by the pet bed area. If pets are allowed to sleep on the owner’s beds, they can transfer fleas to the bedding, and owners will have more than bedbugs biting at night. After treating the pets, wash bedding in hot water to remove fleas. The female flea averages a size of 2.5 mm long, with the male flea averaging size slightly smaller.

The dog flea consists of 8 pairs of spines. The larvae of a dog flea are twice the size of the adult, and it feeds on particles of dried blood, feces, and various organic substances gathered in corners of infested areas. Areas where dogs and cats sleep will most likely be the most popular surfaces for infestation of fleas. The fleas are spotted by the presence of a black and white-looking substance formed from the grayish larvae and white eggs of these flies. These fleas can also feed off many other animals, including humans.

To prevent dog and cat fleas from infesting your pets and your home, it is necessary to maintain the cleanliness of the areas the animals will be in, along with the pets themselves. To achieve proper pest control, be sure to shampoo the pets and vacuum the home thoroughly regularly. Flea collars or flea treatments work well but can be expensive for multiple pet households. Flea powders are rather messy to use and don’t work well where the pets are licking their coats constantly. Be sure to treat outdoor dog houses and cat houses that pets use during the day and then come into your home at night. If the beds in your home are infected, their outside places are most likely infected too.
