Insects are in abundance in Indiana neighborhoods. No matter the season, you may find yourself dealing with an infestation of a wide variety of bugs, both big and small. Some of the most dangerous insects that can invade your yard happen to be some of the tiniest, making them tricky to exterminate and repel. Mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas are among the most common pests that homeowners find themselves battling throughout the year. They are often unsuccessful due to the lack of professional support. These bugs are known to carry diseases that can seriously compromise ones’ health. It’s best to call expert help upon the first sign of an infestation.
How do you know when mosquitoes are overrunning your property? The yard is the first place to look. Numerous species are attracted to standing water, which can be easily found in decorative ponds, low-flow fountains, birdbaths, and potted plants. You may be inadvertently inviting colonies of them to your home with your landscaping alone. Prominent species most likely to be drawn to these elements include the Northern and Southern House, Asian Tiger, and the Yellow Fever Mosquito. These mosquitoes are capable of
transmitting deadly diseases
through their bites, including the West Nile virus, St. Louis Encephalitis, and Zika virus, to name a few.
To thoroughly treat an area and ensure that these lethal insects do not return, you’ll have to implement more than a few DIY methods. Professional help is an absolute necessity to combat infestations due to their uncanny ability to circumvent even some of the most reliable means of protection and prevention. Bug Off Pest Pros offers the maximum defense measures for your home against them in the form of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). IPM entails the combined use of several pest extermination and repelling practices to eliminate the pest threat. While we do use some chemical measures, we will also implement environmental controls, such as the removal of standing water, to ensure there are no attractants present to bring the insects back.
Other insects that love your yard can be controlled with professional pest control techniques, which include ticks and fleas. Ticks are commonly attributed to the spread of potentially fatal illnesses across the United States, Lyme Disease being the most well-known of them. While you can protect yourself using EPA-registered insect repellents and covering your skin when outdoors, the only way to rid your home of this insect truly is by hiring expert help. These pests are often accompanied by fleas since they are transported by similar carriers (i.e., rodents), so a comprehensive approach is necessary to remove them from your property.
Bug Off Pest Pros offers affordable solutions supported by more than ten years’ experience in the pest control industry. We understand that effective pest control is not limited to the interior of your house; it should expand to the outdoors and into your yard as well, to offer the maximum protection. Our comprehensive services are sure to remove problematic insects from your household, both inside and out. With the support of our one-time or quarterly plans, you can rest assured that your home will be shielded from the risks of disease transmission from mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas.
