Brown Dog Ticks Most Common Tick Infesting Port St Lucie Florida Homes and Lawns

Nearly every type of tick infestation in Florida is a Brown Dog Tick infestation. Brown Dog Ticks (BDT) are not technically insects but are closely similar to mites and spiders. These pests must have blood meals in order for survival. The brown dog tick species is a “obligate three-host tick” which means all three stages of the tick including the larva, nymph, and adult requires a blood meal in order to progress into the next developmental stage.

The name of this species of tick does not really stand for what it sounds, they do not only use dogs as a host. Humans and other animals are favorable hosts to the Brown Dog ticks as well. The tick is easily identified for the white coloring on its body. The brown dog tick is the only tick that has white.

A single pregnant female brown dog tick is about the size of a raisin and can literally be responsible for an additional 5,000 more ticks just from one oviposit. Reynolds Pest Management, Inc. highly recommends immediate treatment to eradicate ticks from inside a home or office to keep the numbers of the pests to a minimal.

Cannibalistic Rodent Control Video

Rodent Control in Florida

Rodent control can sometimes be achieved by the very thing you are trying to eliminate. Watch this rodent cannibalism video to see how disgusting these creatures are (WARNING: This video is a graphic depiction of animals in nature eating one another-- Viewer Discretion IS Advised.). One of the worst infestations one can have is from rodents. Rats and mice are both classified as rodents. These pests pose serious health risks to humans and pets living near or in an infested home, and rodent control must be implemented if you have them in your home. 

Rats and Mice Transmit Disease

Rats and mice are prone to carry harmful diseases that can be transmitted to humans through being bitten, eating contaminated foods, or directly coming into contact with the disease. It is a fact that rodents are not the cleanest animals around. One of the most bizarre behaviors of rodents is their eating habits as omnivores; these rodents literally will eat whatever is available including other Rats or Mice! Sometimes the cause to eating other live rats or mice is due to the smell of the prey’s breath. Their last meal may be very appetizing to the hungry rat and may just eat his well fed friend. One unique thing about rats is that they cannot vomit. Therefore they must become aware of poisonous foods they cannot eat; rats are neophobic not temped to try new foods. The amount of disease and bacteria these rats and mice contain is enormous. Some of the common diseases transmitted to humans include:

• Salmonellois

• Rat-Bite Fever

• Tularemia

• Plague

• Lassa Fever

• Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome

Homeowners and business owners should immediately take action against any rat or mice fund indoors. Rodent control, and preventing the rodents from entering your home is vital during the winter months in Florida especially. Regardless if we get snow, Florida’s cold weather drives the rodents that are used to warm weather into a home or business to seek shelter. A mouse can fit through a hole the size of a dime! Any small opening, crack, or hole on the exterior of a home must be closed or sealed to prevent rodent infestations.

Stay Cautious for Bed Bugs Where Ever you May Go

Recent studies performed by entomologists and the research teams at the University of Florida have confirmed a new hiding location for bed bugs. The bindings of hard cover books can now serve the purpose as a bed bug breeding ground, hiding location, and transportation to a new home.

Not only does society have to worry about traveling on bed bug infested airplanes and staying in hotels with bed bugs we now must be concerned when we visit the library! Bed bugs find their way into these hard cover books while the book is checked out to an individual who has bed bugs in their home or back pack. Keep in mind these tiny and microscopic eggs can find their way onto your clothing, bags, and other belongings very easily. Taking home a free bed bug infested book or perhaps a book with live bed bugs eggs can potentially cost someone a fortune in bed bug eradication services.

Always search for any signs of bed bugs when bringing home objects that have a chance of carrying bed bugs, like books.
