Villanova, PA Pest Control
The pristine town of Villanova isn't immune to pests. Wherever people go, bugs, rodents, and other critters will certainly follow. While Pennsylvania winters are quite cold, the temperature is usually just warm enough for bugs to thrive throughout most of the year. Such pests can pose a danger to your property and your health, so you need to always be on the lookout. Here are a few pests you're likely to see roaming around your home if you live in Villanova.
Ant Control
People often underestimate the amount of damage ants can do. In addition to contaminating your food, some ants feed on the wood that holds your home together, which can lead to structural damage and massive home repair bills. If you see a stray ant or two crawling around your counter, it's reasonable to assume that there's a colony of thousands living within your walls. Don't waste your time and money on over-the-counter traps and baits; call a professional exterminator who can locate the source of the infestation, choose the ideal treatment and take steps to prevent future invasions.
Bed Bug Control
Bed bugs love to travel, so they often hitch a ride on clothing, luggage or backpacks before settling into a comfy cushion to feast on human blood. You may rarely see them because they tend to hide within mattresses during the day, but you'll certainly feel the itchy red bumps they leave behind after biting you during the night. These bites are usually harmless, but people with allergies can have severe reactions that require medical attention. Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to get rid of, so don't even bother fighting back on your own. Your home may need several treatments from a professional exterminator to eliminate the problem.
Flea Control
Like bed bugs, fleas also have a taste for human blood, but they tend to target furrier mammals like dogs and cats. In addition to leaving itchy red bumps behind, fleas can also carry diseases that affect people and their pets. Female fleas can lay up to 500 eggs in their short lifetimes, so you'll never beat a flea infestation by targeting them one by one. Seek out an exterminator that specializes in using non-toxic treatments to keep your home safe for you and your animal companions.
