Pests in March

Do you feel the weather starting to change? In just a few weeks we will set our clocks to SPRING forward an hour. But what does that mean for the pests to come? Well, let me tell you, the ants are about to come marching.

Common Pests in Spring

RATS and MICE-

One of the most dreaded pests has to be rats. Mice and rats are dirty pests that can cause devastating damage to a structure. For business owners a rodent problem can drive away customers. Rodent infestations are difficult to get rid of and a rodent professional is often required. With the diseases that rodents carry it is NOT recommended to take on a rodent infestation on your own. Hire a skilled pest control technician to exterminate a rodent infestation. Black Knight Pest Control offers a Rodent Control Extermination and Attic Clean Outs. Guaranteed rodent control service. 

ANTS-

These tiny pests seem to be around all year long depending on where you live, and your lifestyle. As annoying as ants are it is no wonder why they are one of the top service calls received by pest control companies. Black Knight Pest Control has an Ant Control Service to defend against ants. If the ants return so do we. 

TERMITES-

Never underestimate termites! They can cause thousands of dollars in damages to a structure. Drywood and Subterranean Termites can be exterminated by Temecula’s Termite Control Company, Black Knight Termite. Start with a termite inspection from one of Black Knight’s experienced inspectors. At the first sighting of what look to be termite evidence call in a termite professional. Listed on Black Knight’s website you can find helpful information on termites and what to look for on the blog page. 

SILVERFISH-

Definitely, not the kind of fish you want for dinner. Silverfish are quick to run and even more quick to breed. A silverfish problem can escalate in a matter of days. Prevent a silverfish infestation from happening by avoiding use of cardboard boxes for storage, opt for plastic instead. Also, to prevent pest infestations eliminate moisture by checking for leaks. General Pest Control will help prevent against silverfish. 

BED BUGS-

A pest you never want to share the bed with are bed bugs. You can’t get rid of bed bugs by just doing a load of laundry.
