​One of the most obvious signs of a termite infestation is the presence of mud tubes. Some species of termites builds mud tubes from their underground home to a potential food source like a tree, shed, or home. These tubes are necessary because they help the termites maintain the right humidity level and temperature. Mud tubes are about the width of a pencil and can often be seen on the foundation of homes

​The majority of pest problems begin when pests enter homes in search of food, water, and shelter. Just like us, rodents, spiders, and insects will seek out a warm, safe environment that provides for their needs. Unfortunately, our homes are a perfect fit. If you want to keep these pests from coming into your home, there are often repairs and improvements that need to be done to the exterior of the building to prevent access. These are known as exclusion efforts. Start these exclusion efforts by learning how to seal the exterior of your home.

​Pest control companies are fairly widespread and available.  There are so many that there obviously must be a need for them.  The fact is, there is a strong need for them.  With health hazards and potential destruction caused by pests, there needs to be an equalizing force that contends with infestations and insect and rodent problems.  No matter the pest, once indoors, most can spread bacteria and disease as they crawl through your cupboards, on countertops and over floors where feces and urine left behind can harm anyone, especially children as they roll around...
