Identifying A Bed Bug Bite In Fairfield

Bed bugs are an often misunderstood pest. Not only are people mistaken about where they can be found, but Fairfield residents are often unaware of just how common bed bugs can be. 

First, let’s talk about their name — bed bugs. It’s not entirely accurate. Bed bugs can be found hiding in far more than just your mattress or bed sheets. In fact, they may not even be in your bedroom at all. Bed bugs can actually contaminate any kind of item that contains linens, cushioning, or fibers that they can cling to and burrow within. That includes clothing, furniture, and even luggage or other kinds of containers. 

Bed bugs nest close to where they feed, so their bites are often found in lines or clusters on the skin, and usually in the morning after sleeping or after waking up from a nap in your favorite chair. However, while bed bugs don’t tend to have to travel far from where they rest to where they bite, they aren’t easily eliminated by simply removing the contaminated items. 

Professional treatments are far more effective — and even cheaper in the long run — than trying to deal with bed bugs yourself, because they eliminate the entire population, including the eggs that would otherwise hatch and replenish the population. 

If you spot the signs of bed bugs around your Fairfield home, get bed bug treatments from ProServ Pest Management immediately.

How To Prevent Wasps And Yellow Jackets Around Your Fairfield Home

Pest prevention is better than pest removal, especially when it comes to dangerous pests like wasps and yellow jackets. Trying to remove a wasp nest on your own is a good way to get stung, and these kinds of stinging insects don’t die after one sting like bees do. That makes them more aggressive and more territorial, turning your yard into a hazard during the time of year you want to be outside and enjoying the sunshine. 

To prevent this, you need to get started on wasp control before hives can form around your home or in the trees on your lawn. With help from ProServ Pest Management, dealing with stinging insects doesn’t have to be scary or overwhelming. We don’t just help with wasp removal, but also proactive treatments and services that actually prevent them from moving into your Fairfield yard in the first place. 

To avoid wasps and yellow jackets in Fairfield, California, turn to ProServ Pest Management right away.

Signs That Your Fairfield Home Has Attracted Fabric-Eating Pests 

When people worry about destructive pests, their minds often go straight to pests like termites, which chew through structural wooden materials and can lead to widespread property damage. But many pest infestations cause different kinds of damage, the kind that’s more common and just as expensive to address once it's set in. 

There are many fabric-eating pests out there, for example. Whether it’s moths and carpet beetles or pests we tend to think of as generally harmless, like silverfish, many species will eat through fabrics that are found in every home. You need to be able to identify the signs of pest activity quickly and immediately turn to pest control professionals to eradicate the population before it can destroy heirlooms and useful household objects. 

Here are some signs to watch out for: 

• Damage: Unfortunately, the first and only sign people often get that they have fabric-destroying pests is the damage itself. If you spot holes in clothing, furniture, curtains, or other fabrics around your home, contact pest professionals right away. 
• Eggs: Pests leave their eggs near food sources, so you may also notice the cream-colored kernels of their eggs before you notice the pests themselves or their damage. 
• Droppings: Sometimes, the damage these pests deal is in the form of stains left behind from their droppings as they eat through materials and then expel them in the form of urine or feces. 

Fabric pests and pantry pests are just two subsets of residential pests that can cause larger problems, which is why comprehensive pest control is necessary. Get home pest control in Fairfield from ProServ Pest Management.
