Cockroaches
The three most common types of cockroaches in Florida are the German roach, the American roach and the Smoky Brown roach. In Florida they are also known as water bugs or palmetto bugs. It can be very difficult to remove cockroaches that have made themselves at home in your house. They will eat your food, damage electronics, books, and make themselves comfortable in your clothes. Some cockroach species also spread germs to humans. At Pest Control of Spring Hill we serve these pests an eviction notice and keep them from coming back by.
Fleas
Fleas are insects that are wingless and feed off of the blood of the animal or human they hitch a ride on. Flea infestation in Florida is a common problem due to the warm, humid environment. Fleas can be very difficult to remove due to their life cycle. A Flea cycles through fours stages: from egg to larvae, pupae to adult. The eggs from the fleas typically take 10-21 days to hatch. This will depend on the temperature and humidity present. In a cold environment this cycle can take several weeks to complete. Flea eggs that are laid on the host but are not attached fall off ending up on bedding, in carpeting and in pet beds or kennels. The female fleas can lay typically hundreds of eggs during her life span. At Pest Control of Spring Hill we understand the life cycle of fleas and the steps needed to ensure efficient removal of fleas from your household.
Rodents
Typically, mice, rats, raccoons and squirrels sneak into your home looking for shelter, food, water and warmth. In the process of moving into their new home they cause damage to your home. Pest Control of Spring Hill can determine the best way to remove these freeloaders from your household or business and prevent them from coming back.
Spiders
There are numerous species of spiders found in Florida. While most spiders are creepy, they are harmless. However, there are five of which that are poisonous: the brown recluse, the brown widow, the southern black widow, the red widow and the northern black widow. If you see spiders in your home and you’re not familiar with the different species of spiders, it’s a good idea to leave them alone and call an expert. Pest Control of Spring Hill can inspect your home for spiders and provide treatment. We can also implement the steps necessary to keep spiders away in the future.
Termites
Each year across the United States, termites cause billions of dollars of damage to homes. Typically, termites are living in or near your household for quite some time gnawing away before you notice you have a termite problem. If you think you may have a termite problem, Pest Control of Spring Hill can complete a home inspection to determine the extent of the damage and provide you with the best treatment options available.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my Berkeley Manor home treated for pests?
For most homes in Berkeley Manor a quarterly maintenance program is the most effective way to stay ahead of pest problems. Florida’s climate means pests are active year round not just in summer. Quarterly treatments keep preventative barriers fresh and let a technician catch any new activity before it becomes a full infestation.
Are the products you use safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We only use EPA registered products applied by licensed technicians who know the correct application rates and methods. We will tell you what we are using, where we are applying it and how long to keep kids and pets away from treated areas which is typically just until the product has dried.
Do I need a WDO inspection if I am buying a home in Berkeley Manor?
Almost certainly yes. Most mortgage lenders in Florida require a Wood Destroying Organism inspection before they will approve a loan. A standard home inspection does not include termites or wood destroying insects. A WDO inspection is done by a licensed pest control professional and documents any visible evidence of termite activity or wood destroying organism damage in the structure.
Why do I keep seeing roaches even though I keep my house clean?
Roaches in Florida have nothing to do with cleanliness. American cockroaches come in through drains, gaps around pipes and any crack they can find. German cockroaches spread quickly once they get established but even they show up in spotless homes. If you are seeing roaches in Berkeley Manor call us and we will find where they are coming from and take care of it.
How do I know if I have termites in my Berkeley Manor home?
The most common signs are mud tubes running along your foundation or walls, hollow sounding wood when you tap on it, discarded wings near windows or doors and paint that looks bubbled or uneven without an obvious moisture source. If you notice any of these call us right away.
