How Can Carpenter Bees Damage Your Home?

Did you know that carpenter bees don't create hives but rather bore a hole into wood. This hole acts like a suburban road – many bees may enter it and each builds a home of their own that runs along it. A single carpenter bee hole may actually lead to homes belonging to different species of bees. At Slug-A-Bug, we use integrated pest management as a way to get rid of carpenter bees but also to prevent them from boring into your home. This approach uses ways to repel carpenter bees & other pests. To find out more about our carpenter bee elimination program, call Slug-A-Bug pest 321-259-7844 to schedule a free consultation. https://goo.gl/BnLWl8

Rainy Weather Sets Out the Buffet for Termites

Rain is great for plants & our lawns but it does something else. It softens and damages wood. This makes fallen logs, tree stumps and parts of your home seem like a good meal. Termites actually eat the wood in your home. If parts of your home are damaged, they're easier to eat and use to sustain their colonies. What can you do? Check areas of your home where there are leaks, or where you know there is standing water or damaged wood. This includes interior wood that might be damaged by leaky pipes, exterior wood that might be damaged by old gutters, and anything damaged by a leaking roof. Termites are hard to detect until they've caused real damage, but these are areas where you might see them, or find the wings they've shed. Call Slug-A-Bug at 321-259-7844 and let our termite experts take care of any problems with termites. https://goo.gl/5n4r4q

Read These Tips to Prevent Diseases Carried by Ticks

Ticks can transmit a number of diseases, including Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever & Lyme Disease. These can be debilitating. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever is more common in Florida and the mortality rate is high when it goes untreated. Check yourself after a hike or any walk that takes you through long grasses or dense overgrowth. Remove any ticks as soon as you find it. Don't delay, and make sure you remove the head of the tick and not just the body. If the head is left it will still feed and can pass disease. Put the tick in a bag with a good seal, so you can ensure you've got the entire thing. If you have a tick problem, call Slug-A-Bug at 321-259-7844. https://goo.gl/CxoqeX 

Remove Paper Wasp Before They Build Their Nests

No one wants to see hundreds of thousands of paper wasps swarming their home.  Now is the best time to get rid of them.

Removing paper wasp nests is necessary because they won’t leave on their own. They’ll only become more numerous and spread additional nests on your property. They can be a special risk to children, the elderly, and pets.

A Brevard County pest control service with experience in paper wasp removal should be consulted.

Are Traps Effective When Dealing with Yellow Flies in Florida?

Yellow flies are some of the most difficult Florida flies to manage. Traps are somewhat effective, as are emptying standing pools of water around your home (this will also help cut down on mosquito and sand flea populations). It's important to prevent ways that yellow flies can get into your home. Although female yellow flies consume blood, male yellow flies prefer pollen and nectar – meaning sugary drinks or spills will attract the overall yellow fly population. If you have a serious yellow fly problem, or you're getting bites, call Slug-A-Bug at 321-259-7844 as soon as you can. https://goo.gl/YrstLt
