Sometimes, even if you keep finding insects in your home, you may put pest control on the back burner. Life is busy, and pest control isn't easy. You may not want to go outside and inspect the exterior of your home for gaps and cracks and use a caulking gun or expanding foam to seal those gaps. Worse than this, you may take the time to seal entry points and keep having pests get into your home anyway! This can lead you to purchase DIY home pest control products. Doing that can lead you down another road of frustration. When misapplied, these products don't work. The two primary benefits of getting professional pest control in Katy, Texas, are having someone else do the hard work for you and knowing that the job is done right. Join us as we look at how a licensed professional providing residential pest control addresses the challenges of pest control in Katy, why it is critical to have effective pest control, and some of the clever ways professionals solve pest problems.
So many pests invade homes in Katy, Texas, that there is no way to cover them all. If we did, you'd give up reading long before getting to any meaningful information. So, let's shorten things and examine a few ways pests cause problems and why it is hard to stop them.
House centipedes, millipedes, box elder bugs, Asian lady beetles, etc.
We often get calls when pests become annoying. Some pests are only annoying. They don't present a threat to people and rarely irreparably damage belongings. The problem with these pests is that you don't want to see them in your home.
Flies, cockroaches, ants, rodents, etc.
When pests get into trash receptacles, feed on animal waste, and crawl around in dirty drains, they pick up microorganisms that can impact human health. They bring these invisible organisms into homes and leave them on surfaces, dishes, and silverware. They also introduce them to stored foods. In most cases, human biology can pass these organisms through with little or no discomfort, but some organisms can create flu-like symptoms.
Mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, rodents, etc.
Some pests spread diseases that impact human, dog, and cat health. In the United States, mosquitoes transmit West Nile virus and other viruses that cause encephalitis, and impact canine health by spreading heartworms. Ticks transmit Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, meat allergy, and other potentially dangerous diseases. Fleas spread typhus, bartonellosis, tapeworms, and more. All of these pests can have a big impact on health.
Wasps, bees, spiders, scorpions, fire ants, bed bugs, etc.
There are several biting and stinging pests in Katy. These pests come out of nowhere and leave burning or itchy wounds on the skin. Certain pests cause numerous wounds. That's right bed bugs; we're looking at you. Most of the time, these pests are a painful reminder that you never know what's lurking on your property. But, in rare circumstances, a sting or a bite can lead to dangerous medical symptoms.
Beetles, weevils, Indian meal moths, etc.
When you open a food package, the last thing you want to find is webbing, wiggly bugs, or flying insects. But, while entirely unacceptable and altogether disgusting, these pests don't threaten your health. They're just gross.
Silverfish, clothing moths, carpet beetles, cockroaches, rodents, drywood termites, etc.
Many pests can damage the things you own. They'll eat paper, cardboard, clothing, wood, and more. When you have property-damaging pests in your home, the damage they do can go undetected because most of these pests prefer secluded spaces. Sometimes, they'll damage your stuff right underneath your nose. They can eat your carpets, drapes, paintings, important documents, photos, clothing, furniture, and a long list of other things.
Termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, wood boring beetles, etc.
When wood-damaging pests get into your home, they can feed on many things. They'll eat your back deck, wood skirting, subflooring, wall studs, support beams, and more. Over time, extensive damage may occur.
Rats and mice.
When rats and mice enter your home, they chew on many things, including wires. If a rodent cuts a live wire, it can create a spark and set a blaze inside your wall voids. We don't need to tell you how bad that can be.
There are other ways pests present threats, but these examples cover what you need to know most. Pests have the potential to create serious trouble in your home. This is why home pest control costs are worth the money.
Do pests do all the things listed above all the time? No. You may go a long time without having pests create problems that you notice. You or someone in your home may get sick and not realize it is pest-related. You may not realize that pests are secretly damaging items in your attic until you go to grab something out of storage. Wood-damaging organisms could damage your home for years. When you realize pests are causing a problem, it will likely be long after they have impacted your health or damaged your stuff.
