Pest of the month

Carpenter ants can be a nuisance if they enter your home.  Carpenter ants are red and black and can grow to 5/8”.  They have two sets of wings and are often mistaken for termites. Interestingly enough, both termites and carpenter ants are wood destroying organisms.
  These ants construct their nests in hollow trees, landscaping timbers and wood used in homes. Heavy activity around your residence could indicate a moisture issue or possible termite problem.
  Once inside your home, carpenter ants will search for food. Their favorites are sweets, eggs and grease.

Creepy Christmas Critters

​Keep your Christmas merry by being aware of what is coming into your home.
Real Christmas trees often come with unwanted passengers looking to hitch a ride inside our warm, cozy house. Aphids are the most common and usually die quickly once inside the home, but bark beetles are much hardier. So, inspect that tree!
Shipping boxes can be an even bigger problem than trees. Silverfish prefer spaces with very little airflow, so boxes are their dream home. Once they’re brought inside they will gladly move into your kitchen cabinets and food boxes.
Cardboard boxes are also a favorite snack for German cockroaches and they are extremely hard to eradicate. So, inspect your packages and dispose of them quickly after opening.
Happy bug-free holiday!
