Identifying Insect and Pest Problems
Insect and pest encounters are common within homes and storage spaces. At some point in your life, you’ve likely discovered ants crawling around in your pantry, had spiders in the corners of the room or centipedes and millipedes throughout your wall spaces. These creatures travel fast and know how to move within small areas. If/when you run into a bug in your home, you can quickly do some research to find out its species and what threat it may pose. Common types of insect/pest species in Raleigh include:
- Boxelder bugs
- Centipedes
- Millipedes
- Earwigs
- House crickets
- Pill bugs
- Silverfish
- Cockroaches
Crawlspaces, bathrooms, basements, attics or potted plant areas are a few places you can check around for unwanted pests. Critters can easily get inside your home, often climbing between cracks and crevices in these wall spaces, or in areas where high moisture is built up. They move swiftly and tend to lay eggs and create nests in these spaces, as well, leaving room for their young to settle throughout your home.
