How to Know When to Hire a Pest Professional
Why Do-It-Yourself Measures Aren't Always Enough
When pests find their way inside, a homeowner is often tempted to try and control the problem all on their own. Truth is, most pests need to be left to professionals. A pest professional has the knowledge, tools, and training to safely eliminate a pest infestation.
When homeowners try to treat a pest problem by themselves, they usually are only treating the “tip of the iceberg” and does not take care of the root of the problem. You may eliminate the pests you are seeing, but a larger infestation can continue to grow out of sight. An infestation can pose a health risk to your family and cause damage to property. There are pest scenarios that should always be handled by a professional.
Termites/Wood-boring insects
Wood-boring insects, termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees and powder post beetles can damage the support beams in your house. This can lead to expensive repairs (that isn’t usually covered by an insurance policy). Termites every year cause around $5 billion in property damage. They are a “silent destroyer”. They can chew through wood, flooring, even wallpaper quietly and undetected. The scary part is that 52% of Americans have never had their home inspected for termites. Mesa AZ Bed Bug Professional
Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are elusive and hide out in hard to detect places like electrical switches and under wallpaper. They are hardy pests and have been known to live for several months without a blood meal. They can withstand temperatures from nearly freezing to 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Bed Bugs are THE most difficult pest to treat, even more difficult than cockroaches, termites and ants. When working with a professional it will take several treatments before the bed bugs are completely eliminated. Mesa AZ Bed Bug Professional
