If pests disrupt your sense of peace and relaxation, you need the Kittitas County pest control experts from Prosite. Our professionals know how to eradicate all types of pests from your house. Please continue to read to learn more about why pest control is necessary and beneficial for your Kittitas home.
Pests Can Plague Kittitas County Homes All Year Long
We share this planet with thousands of pests; because we have built our homes in their habitat, they can be a problem for homeowners requiring pest control throughout the year. For example, cockroaches enter homes for a warmer environment during the winter, and spiders follow insects into homes. During the spring and fall, termites swarm to create new nests in houses, and the summer brings ants, mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, wasps, and bees onto Kittitas properties. While some pests are seasonal, pests like bed bugs infest homes throughout the year.
In addition to insects and arachnids (spiders), rodents can plague a property throughout the year, which means you need rodent pest control. Rodents invading Kittitas houses, particularly in the winter, include mice and rats. Wildlife like squirrels, bats, raccoons, and skunks can be problematic for Kittitas homeowners and require wildlife control.
Pest Infestations Can Lead To Health Risks And Property Damage
You need a pest control service near you like Prosite Pest Control because pests on your property or in your home are harmful to your family for a couple of reasons:
- Disease: Many insects like mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, and cockroaches spread diseases by biting or contaminating surfaces by shedding pathogens through defecation. For example, diseases carried by mosquitoes include the West Nile virus, dengue, chikungunya, encephalitis, and tularemia. Ticks spread Lyme disease, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever; cockroaches spread salmonellosis, typhoid fever, and the E.coli infection. Rodents shed bacteria and viruses and pollute surfaces; they transmit pathogenes through defecation and saliva.
- Destruction: All rodents cause visible destruction to household siding, wiring, insulation, and other materials through their constant gnawing. Wildlife like squirrels destroy insulation; raccoons and opossums turn over garbage cans and cause damage highlighting the need for rodent control. Although hidden, termites and carpenter ants slowly destroy the wood in your Kittitas home.
Because pests, rodents, and wildlife spread disease and destroy property, you need the best pest control in Kittitas County, Prosite.
The Hassles And Risks With Do-It-Yourself Pest Control
We all want to save money, but do-it-yourself pest control isn't a way to do it for a few reasons:
- DIY sprays can be unsafe around pets and children.
- DIY treatments do not destroy the nests where the pests reproduce.
- DIY methods do not create long-lasting protection barriers.
- DIY traps can be dangerous when snaring wildlife and rodents.
Another problem with do-it-yourself pest control is that it may not be the right product. For example, there are different species of cockroaches and ants, and the wrong product may not work. Effective pest control requires knowledge of the pest, proper treatment, and follow-up.
