Whether it’s a business trip or a family vacation, you can’t afford to let your guard down when it comes to bed bugs! Bed Bugs are small insects approximately ⅛” in size that feed on human and pet blood, and they like to gather in places where large numbers of people sleep. Most business travelers prefer to stay in a branded hotel when they travel for business instead of taking their chances at a local establishment that isn’t subjected to the same standards. But the truth is that cleanliness isn’t always a very effective deterrent, and you’re just as likely to find bed bugs in an upscale hotel as you are in a cheap one.

Many industries now offer incentives or mandates to reduce the use of chemical cleaning and pest control treatments in their warehouses and industrial facilities. Unfortunately, pest control for businesses can be challenging without resorting to traditional pest control remedies such as baits and traps. In addition to having to deal with flying pests in a warehouse, you’re also more likely to encounter problems with bird and rodent control because of all the large gaps and openings that are so common in industrial buildings and storage buildings. The good news is that door sweep brushes offer many of the same benefits as chemical pest control treatments, and they can also offer you energy savings!

Ants are a common sight during the spring and summer, and every homeowner knows that spotting a single ant is the first sign of trouble. Scouts become heroes when they find a good food source, and you can rest assured that they will leave no stone unturned. Your only defense against ants is a good offense. That’s where we come in!

Your home is a lot like an all-you-can-eat buffet for termites, and your only chance to keep them away is to go on the offensive. Unfortunately, most homeowners don’t have the training and experience to spot termite activity until it’s too late! You might occasionally spot mounds or “mud tubes” on the side of your home, but most of the time the termites are a bit more devious. In fact many homeowners don’t find out that they have a termite infestation until they have to pay thousands of dollars to repair structural damage. Each year, termites cause more damage to homes than fires, floods, tornadoes, and earthquakes combined!
