Bed bugs have been in the news a lot recently, and they’re a nuisance that’s affecting a growing number of Arkansans. They’re small parasitic creatures approximately 1/4″ in size, and they feed on the blood of humans and pets. The good news is that there’s no known risk of disease from an infestation, and if they’re discovered early enough, bed bug removal is a pretty straightforward process.

Springtime is here, and like most Arkansans, you want to spend as much time outside as you can before the mercury begins to approach the triple digits. Unfortunately, we’re not the only species that enjoys these warmer temperatures, and our backyard activities often attract unwanted guests. When you’re dealing with bloodthirsty mosquitoes, indoors in front of the TV may feel like your only option.

Your home’s crawl space was created with good intentions. It ensures easy access to your plumbing and heating systems for maintenance and repair. Unfortunately, this space which is convenient for your handyman or contractor is usually a convenient home for bugs.
