General Pest Control

Stink bugs are shield-shaped insects that commonly enter homes to escape cold weather. They don’t reproduce heavily indoors, but they can become a major nuisance when they appear in bedrooms, living rooms, and near windows. Crushing them releases an unpleasant odor, which is why people avoid handling them. Most infestations are tied to entry gaps around siding and frames. Professional control helps reduce indoor activity and future entry.

Silverfish are small, shiny insects that thrive in humid, dark spaces. They feed on paper, glue, cardboard, and even some fabrics, so they can damage stored items over time. You’ll often see them in basements, closets, or near books and boxes. Because they hide in cracks and come out at night, infestations can grow quietly. Professional control helps reduce them and keeps them from returning.

Earwigs are slender insects with pinchers at the back, and they usually enter homes from outdoor damp areas. They don’t typically cause structural damage, but they can become a nuisance in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. They often hide under mats, near doors, or around window frames. Spraying them when you see them doesn’t stop the source outside. A proper treatment plan and prevention steps work best.

 Cluster flies look like house flies but often appear in groups, especially around attics and upper windows. They typically enter buildings to overwinter, then become active on warmer winter days. They don’t breed in garbage like house flies, so killing a few doesn’t stop the issue. People often notice repeated clusters near lights. Control involves treating entry points and reducing re-entry.

Centipedes are fast-moving pests that usually show up in damp areas like basements, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. They hunt other insects, which means seeing centipedes can also point to a hidden bug problem. Their bite is uncommon but can happen if handled. Most people want them gone because they look intimidating and appear suddenly at night. Moisture control helps, but repeated sightings often need targeted treatment.

Boxelder bugs are seasonal invaders that often gather on sunny exterior walls and then slip inside through small gaps. They don’t bite or damage the structure, but they can show up in large numbers and stain surfaces if crushed. People usually notice them in fall or warm sunny days. Once indoors, they move slowly and collect near windows. Sealing entry points and targeted control reduces repeat invasions.
