Effective Termite Control
-
Don't Termites Only Attack Old, Run-Down Buildlings?It is a common misconception that termites only infest decaying buildings. In reality, termites have actually been found in buildings as early as four days after construction. Every building fabricated wholly or partly of wood is susceptible. Chemical or mechanical barriers can be established in the construction stage to prevent or discourage termite infestations in new homes.
-
How Much Damage Can Termites Really Cause?Termites eat constantly; 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This means damage to wood in and around a structure can happen extremely fast. In fact, it is estimated that termites cause $5 billion in property damage each year in the U.S. If you are suspicious of termite activity on your property, don't hesitate to contact Action's termite exterminators today!
-
How Do I Get Rid Of Termites?Getting rid of termites is a difficult task because colonies may be several feet from the structure and termites are masters at avoiding detection until they’ve caused extensive damage. If you have a termite problem or want to make sure your home is termite free, Action Pest Control can help!

Effective Spider Control
-
Why Do I Have A Spider Problem?Spiders are predatory creatures, often feeding on other small insects like flies, crickets, and even other spiders. When their outdoor food source becomes scarce, they tend to move indoors in search of food. Spiders can gain access to your home through the smallest of openings, like damaged screens and cracks under doors and windows. Unfortunately, spiders come into our homes by hiding in storage containers, home décor, and other items that we transfer into our living spaces.
-
Can't I Get Rid Of Spiders Myself?Getting rid of spiders in your home can be tricky because there are many potential hiding places for these elusive pests. If misused or misapplied, homeowners may be exposed to over-the-counter pesticides and other treatment products unnecessarily. The trustworthy professionals from Action Pest Control participate in ongoing training to ensure our techniques are effective and how our applications are applied to minimize any potential risk for our customers.
-
Are Spiders Dangerous?Spiders are considered by many to be nuisance pests, and even if bitten by a spider, very few have the sufficient amount of venom to have adverse effects on a human. However, black widow spiders and brown recluse spiders are the exceptions and can be quite dangerous. The venom from these poisonous spiders can cause serious reactions if left untreated. If you think a poisonous spider has bitten you, you should seek medical attention immediately.

Are Mice & Rats Dangerous?For being so small, mice and rats can cause quite a bit of damage! A rodent's front teeth continuously grow, meaning they have to gnaw to keep them short. They may chew on your furniture, clothes, papers, or other belongings. They are also known to chew on wires, which creates a significant fire hazard in your home.

Effective Pest Control
-
Do I Really Need Pest Control Year-Round?It is a common misconception that pests are only active during the warmer months. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Termites, for example, are active year-round, causing costly damage for homeowners, regardless of the season. Mice are constantly searching for food, and the most accessible place to find it could be your home. Although you may not see them, don’t be fooled! Many pests tend to lurk in walls and other areas, where they remain well out of sight. All the while, they could be multiplying and causing more damage in their increased numbers. Pests are a hazard to your home, and some pests, like cockroaches and rodents, are known carriers of bacteria and disease.

Many do-it-yourself repellents, sprays, and traps to rid your property of common pests do not work as the chemicals they use are ineffective. The other problem with DIY products is that they can be very dangerous to people and pets if they are misused or mixed improperly and can even run the risk of making your pest problem more severe.

Effective Flea Control
-
Why Do I Have A Flea Problem?Fleas are parasitic pests that feed on the blood of mammals, including people, pets, and many wild animals.

Once on your property, fleas commonly make their way inside by catching a ride on you or your pets.
-
Are Fleas Dangerous?Yes, fleas can be dangerous to your pets and possibly your family. Fleas carry and transmit many diseases, and while rare, they can spread murine typhus and the plague.

Effective Bed Bug Control
-
How Do I Know If I Have Bed Bugs?Indications of a bed bug infestation in your home can include: red, itchy welts on the skin's surface; red or brown fecal spots on bedding or upholstery; molted bed bug skins. Severe infestations may have a sweet-smelling odor associated with them. Unfortunately, bed bugs are an elusive pest and can be difficult to locate through traditional inspection methods. At Action Pest Control, we utilize certified bed bug detection K-9's, trained to sniff out a single live bed bug.
-
What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?Bed bugs are small, oval-shaped insects that are about the size of an apple seed. They are often red to brown and are very flat insects. Bed bug eggs would be much more difficult to spot with the naked eye. These eggs are white and are about the size of two grains of salt. Action's trained and experienced bed bug exterminators will be able to help identify a bed bug problem on your property quickly.
-
Why Can't I Get Rid Of Bed Bugs Myself?Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to eliminate on your own. The reason is due to their size and reproduction habits. They are so small that they can fit in very tight places. They even hide behind wallpaper. Also, female bed bugs lay a large amount of eggs. Adult females deposit up to five eggs a day in several locations, both on and away from the bed. An adult female may lay up to 500 eggs in a year.

Effective Ant Control
-
Why Do I Have An Ant Problem?Ants are notorious for invading homes, mainly because they are foraging food (commonly sweets, starches, and liquids) or water sources. They can easily find entrances into homes through small gaps in your foundation, exterior walls, around doors and windows, and many other areas of your home. Once ants find a food supply in your home, they will return to collect it and bring it back to their nests. Ants can also be very problematic inside a home because of how rapidly they can reproduce and how difficult they are to control.
-
Does DIY Ant Control Work?DIY (do-it-yourself) ant control is not an effective way to eliminate ants because it does not treat the cause of the problem—ant nesting areas. DIY ant control will only treat and potentially kill ants that you see inside your home. It will do nothing to keep ants from building future colonies around the home. DIY ant control can also cause foraging ants to split from the main nest site (to avoid repellants) and make your ant problem worse by forcing the ants to create new colonies.
-
How Do I Know If I Have Ants Or Termites?Ants have bodies with a pinched waist and an elbowed antenna. Termites antennae are straight, and their bodies are wide without the pinched waist section. A professional ant exterminator from Action Pest Control will be able to identify the pest that is causing you problems quickly!

-
How can I prevent moles and lawn pests?One of the best ways to prevent moles around your yard is to create a rock or wire trench around your property’s perimeter. By digging a 2-3 foot deep trench around your yard and filling it in with rocks or steel wire mesh that the moles can’t tunnel through, you can help minimize your risk of them finding their way into your yard proper. However, keep in mind that even using this method can have its downsides unless undertaken by a professional.
-
How much damage can moles cause to my lawn?Moles’ constant burrowing can be catastrophically destructive to grass, flower beds, and tree roots.

Beyond direct damage, moles can also create destructive conditions that can lead to other problems, like weakening the structural integrity of your home’s foundations, creating pockets of pooling water across your yard, and leaving holes across the yard that could cause someone to trip and fall.
-
What are moles?Moles are carnivorous mammals that spend most of their lives underground. While they typically prefer to feed on insects and grubs they find, their persistent tunneling can be incredibly destructive to your garden and lawn, ruining your root structure and potentially creating entry points for other pests (like rodents) to get into your garden. High mole populations usually correlate with a correspondingly high presence of soil pests that they feed on.
