Identifying Destructive Pests in Port Saint Lucie, Florida

Florida is home to many types of pests that cause serious damage to a home or structure. A typical home in Florida encounters general pests such as ants and cockroaches daily. Reynolds Pest Management, Inc. will discuss 3 of the most common pests to have inside your home that lead to damage.

Termites

Florida is one of the leading states in the United States for termite activity. These are also one of the most destructive pests to have infesting your home. These creatures devour the wood frame of your home leading to very costly damage and control methods.

The best way to prevent termite in Florida is to have an annual termite inspection performed only by a certified termite inspector.

Cockroaches

Believe it or not, roaches do consume nearly everything including grease, sweets, wallpaper, wood, and leather. Besides from their health hazards they pose to humans, they can destroy areas of your home. To prevent serious damage from cockroaches, immediate treatment should take place. Eradicating the cockroaches and minimizing their population inside your home is beneficial to keeping the damage to a minimal.

Carpenter Ants

Carpenter ants are many times wrongfully accused of eating wood. These pests do not cause damage to your home by eating the wood, but by tunneling through it. They do prefer damp and rotted wood to live in. If you’re noticing a large amount of these ants, it may be due to a rotted beam or wooded area of the home. Many times the home can be invaded by carpenter ants when the surrounding areas of the home have damp decaying woods. Be sure you keep objects including wood from the exterior of the home. Keeping up with the maintenance of your home can decrease the chance of having a carpenter ant.

Noticing more pests inside your home after a rain shower?

There is a relationship between rain and insects that enter your home during a period of rain showers. Understanding the anatomy of insects will give you an idea of the correlation. A lot has to do with the fact that insect do not have lungs!

This may be news to you but lungs are not found within an insect’s body. Small holes along their bodies that form through them are how the insect breathes.

Water is a hazard for insects. During rainfall, they are forced to seek shelter from the water to keep from drowning. Your home plays a safe haven for them. Other pests can be driven to your home just to keep out of the rain.

Florida experiences serious amounts of rainfall year long thus making pest infestations very common. If you are encountering pests inside your home or office during or after rain showers, contact ReynoldsPest Management, Inc. for protection against pest invasions at 772-334-7007.

Termite Inspections are an Important Maintenance Procedure for all Florida Homeowners

Very few insurance companies offer coverage for termite infestations or damage caused by termites in your home. These companies are becoming even stricter on other pest or rodent damages. Having an annual termite inspection is considered maintenance to your home. Insurance companies claim termite infestations are in fact a maintenance issue. According to them, if you would have properly eradicated the termites you would not have damage to your home.

Routine termite inspections are highly recommended by Reynolds Pest Management, Inc. especially to those living in Florida. Typically, homeowners will have the service performed once a year. Termite activity is much higher in Florida compared to other states. A termite inspection is the visual inspection of your home for signs of termite activity. Identifying the termites activity before the infestation causes costly damage will save the homeowners thousands of dollars not just on damage control but the treatment for advanced termite infestations. Leaving the termites untreated for long periods of time allows them to reproduce quickly increasing their populations inside your home leading to more damage and a more difficult task in eliminating them.

Not all pest control companies are equal. Some companies do not always hire the most qualified termite exterminators or inspectors. It is important to Reynolds Pest Management, Inc. to have experts on board and hire only the most qualified individuals to perform termite inspections.  

Prevent damage to your most valued asset by calling Reynolds Pest Management, Inc. to perform an extensive and affordable termite inspection today. 

Top Pests Encountered by a Homeowner

Last year 84% of Americans had encountered some type of insect inside their home according to a national survey performed in the United States. This could mean an increase in demand for pest control services as the populations of pests are higher than usual. Per the survey performed, more than half of homeowners believe that pest control is essential when performed by a pest professional.

The following are the results and percentages from a survey conducted by a residential pest control company and 1,300 homeowner participants. The results listed below are the top pests encountered in a home and their percentages represent the number of participants.

·          Ants 49%

·          Spiders 43%

·          Flies 37%

·          Mosquitoes 34%

·          Mice 30%

·          Wasps 29%

Out of all the homeowners that participated in the survey, only 80% seemed to be concerned about pests entering their homes. The biggest concern for all the homeowners, according to the survey, were termites due to their costly damaging habits. Amazingly, 95% of the participants did agree that if a homeowner is looking for an effective and guaranteed service that they should hire a certified pest control company.

It is evident that the warmer temperatures this past winter triggered an increase in populations of all pests this summer. With more pests around, the higher the chance of a pest infestation near by your home or inside it. The best way to prevent any of these top pests from entering your home is to have a routine pest service to monitor any pest activity and to apply products to deter them from heading in your home’s direction.
