Worst Pests in Kuna

Being a homeowner, you should take all the preventive measures to eliminate these unwanted guests in your home. Pest usually seek cooler shelters during warmer months and warm shelters during colder months.



With so many of these pesky pests lurking out there, here is a list of some of the worst types of pests that you can encounter in your Kuna, ID home or business location.

Roaches

Cockroaches are one of the worst, ugliest, creepiest and common pests that can invade your living space round the year. Though they are attracted to moisture, but they can infest your home during any time of the year. Roaches often come out looking for food like crumbs and other food residue that was left on the kitchen counter-top or dropped on the floor.


Not only just food from kitchen, roaches also feed on grease, glue, wood and literally everything they can find to eat. If you are using a roach spray, look out for places like your kitchen, garage, basement and bathrooms. While your insect or roach repellents may help to control their infestation temporarily, these elusive invaders require a professional exterminator because they have a long lifespan, they multiply quickly and it is impossible to kill them. Roaches can survive the worst conditions and they have built up their resistance to many common insect/pest killers on the market.

Fleas & Ticks

If you have pets in your home, it is very common to have fleas and ticks as well. However, they are also transferred to your indoor living space via other means such as your luggage, clothes, shoes etc. The best way to prevent fleas and ticks is to take good care of the animals you have in your home, but sometimes it becomes difficult to control them.



There are other pests as well that bring fleas and ticks when they enter your home. For instance, a rodent infestation in your home will guaranteed bring fleas and ticks with them.


A good practice would be to monitor your pets whenever you take them for a walk and look out for warning signs. If your pet is scratching himself like crazy after a morning walk or has too many red bumps over his legs and ankles, it is an obvious sign of these pesky pests. You can use a flea spray throughout your home, on your carpets, sofas and rugs for their treatment, or call a professional for help.

Spiders

You hear the word spider and chills run down your spine with goosebumps all over your body. In Kuna, spiders are one of the most commonly reported pest infestations. While they do help in a way to eliminate other pests form your home as they feed on them, but their infestation in your living space can soon become a nuisance.


Much worse, some of their species like Black Widow are deadly and should be handled only by proper professionals. Spiders also build webs all over your place, in corners of the room, ceilings, under the bed and sofas. In Kuna, majority of the spider infestation is harmless as they are just looking for a place to build web and catch some food, but they can multiply quickly and become a problem.

Windscorpion

Say hello to this half-spider-half-scorpion looking bug. It is huge, it is fast and can be dangerous. Windscorpion is one of the species of giant arachnids crawling on the face of earth and they are most-fear inducing creatures. While windscorpions are mostly harmless, but if disturbed or threatened, they can bite you with their large chelicerae, leaving you in intense pain followed by potentially severe skin infections and allergies.

Rodents

What makes rodents the worst type of pest is their ability to gnaw through almost everything they find. From electric wires in your house to the cash stored in your safe, these tiny pests can create a big mess if ignored. There are a number of house fire cases in which rats and mice gnawed the electric wires inside the house, which caused a short-circuit and the ultimate result was an entire house on fire.


Most of the rodents come looking for food and shelter in your house. While the best way is to use a trap to catch them and dispose them to a far away place, but sometimes these stubborn pests keep on invading your living space. In that case you would need a professional to help you get rid of them.

Wasps

Wasps are extremely aggressive and they will attack you to protect their nest or if disturbed or threatened. They build their nests on the protected underside of soffits and eaves on homes, and removing the nest without any safety measures and skills can put you under serious danger.



If you suspect wasp infestation in your house or have spotted their nest in the attic or just outside your door or window, give us a call today and we will help you get rid of them forever.


While majority of the pests are harmless unless they are disturbed, the fact that they can multiply and spread diseases in your house is a major concern. That is why you should take immediate action for their extermination and control and should only rely on professional help.
