An Effective Rodent Control Guide For Spanish Fork Property Owners

There are also many types of rodents here in Spanish Fork that are capable of causing a significant amount of property damage and transmitting diseases. While the professionals at Bug Wranglers can help implement prevention strategies unique to your situation, there are some general prevention tips we recommend everyone consider:

• Seal up entry points: The first step to keeping rodents out of your home is to cut off their entry points. Some rodents can squeeze through a hole the size of a dime, so when you are looking for potential access points, no matter how small they are, seal them up!

• Declutter: The conglomeration of items that tend to pile up in our attics, basements, and garages are ideal nesting areas for many rodents. Take the time to go through these areas in your home and declutter, taking away potential hiding spots where they would try and reproduce.

• Spray foam insulation: Standard fiberglass insulation is an ideal nesting spot and food source for rodents. Consider spray foam insulation as it is rodent proof due to the air-tight barrier it creates, and it doesn't provide a breeding ground for rodents. 

If you find rodents in your home, call the trained professional at Bug Wranglers to safely eliminate them. We train our technicians to exterminate these pests without exposing anyone to harmful diseases safely. Give us a call to get on the schedule today!

What You Ought To Know About Elm Seed Bugs In Spanish Fork

The elm seed bug is a relatively new invasive species in the US. It originated in Europe and the Mediterranean. While these pests pose no threat to people or plants, they are a crawling nuisance. And while they don't reproduce indoors, there are still important things you need to know to keep them from causing other problems:

• They hibernate during the winter: Elm seed bugs spend their winter hibernating indoors and outside under tree bark. In the spring, they emerge and spread to elm trees.

• Monitor your home: Pest proof by caulking cracks and crevices and sealing windows and doors with weather stripping. Make sure screens are in good shape with no holes or tears. These tips will also prevent other pests from entering your home year-round. 

• Manage elm trees in your yard: Because they feed on these trees and seeds, it is essential to keep the trees and bushes trimmed in your yard.

Bug Wranglers specializes in identifying elm seed bug infestations and treating your yard with the chemicals needed to repel them permanently. Don't let these invasive pests destroy the beautiful elms on your property; let us help you protect them!
