Signs That You Should Call Pest Control Immediately

To prevent an infestation, you should look out for the following signs that you have a pest problem.

• Anthills. While anthills themselves do not pose an immediate threat, they do signal that you may soon have an ant problem. They can gain to your home through cracks or crevices in your foundation, doors, windows, etc.
• Body parts. You may notice small wings, skin, or other animal or pest body parts around your home, which means you should schedule a service.
• Dirt and grime. If surfaces or floors in your home are grimy or dirty, you may have a pest infestation. Dirt and grime may also lead you to a nest.
• Gnaw marks. If you notice torn fabric, holes, or markings on your upholstery, clothing, other fabrics, or boxes, you may have a rodent problem. These creatures may also chew on your electrical wires or other belongings.
• Hollow wood. If you have hollow wood, you may have a termite problem. To determine if termites are in your home, you should look to see if there are mud tubes (which termites leave behind as they create tunnels).
• Nesting. As a pest starts to get comfortable in a space, it will create a nest where it can breed and multiply. Rats and mice most commonly do this in homes by using small scraps from your home, leaves, and grass clippings to create a nest.
• Pest droppings. One of the most common signs that pests are in your home is the presence of droppings. You should look around your home, especially in your attic, crawl spaces, basement, and cabinets.
• Strange noises. If you hear noises in your home, like squeaking, scratching, whining, or scuttling, you likely have a pest control problem.
• Strange smells. Because pests leave droppings and urine around your home, you may begin to notice strange odors around your property.
• Visible sightings. If you notice dead or living pests around your home, you should contact our professionals for help.
