Every once in a while, you might have a few ants that wander into your kitchen looking for food, but if you’re finding trails of ants around your house you might have a problem.
Spiders
Spiders can infest a home without any warning. They can sneak into the smallest of areas, lay their eggs, and before you know it, you have a spider problem.
Termites
Termites are one of the most dangerous infestations for homeowners, because they cause considerable damage to internal structures. Worst of all, they can consume structural timbers, framing, and flooring for years without homeowners even noticing. When visible damage starts to appear, homeowners are faced with an expensive price tag to repair their property. Fortunately, Healthy Home Termite and Pest Control in Acworth, GA specializes in the prevention and treatment of termite invasions.
Fleas
Fleas are one of the smallest pests you’ll have to deal with. At 1/12 to 1/6 of an inch, they can seem almost invisible. And as they appear as small, brown flecks, they are frequently mistaken for dirt. This makes it difficult to realize you have an infestation until it’s too late.
Cockroaches
German cockroaches are easily recognized by their light brown or tan coloration with two black horizontal stripes located right behind their head. Younger German cockroaches are darker, almost black in color, but have the same black stripes behind their head. Adults can grow up to 16 mm and you may notice them scurrying across the floor, even though they have wings.
Silverfish
Silverfish are pesky insects that can thrive in a variety of climates. These tiny pests prefer to dwell in dark areas of your home, like your basement, attic, kitchen, and bathroom, and you’ll often find them hiding in storage boxes in garages and sheds.
Bees
Another thing to look for is dark stains on ceilings and walls. If you notice this happening there is a good chance you have a honey bee hive somewhere in your home. Honey bees are crucial to the environment and their removal should be handled with care.
Wasps
Wasps are sometimes social and sometimes solitary, winged insects that build nests from wood pulp. They are usually identified by their black and yellow markings and narrow waists. There are many different kinds of wasps, some build honey-combed nests that look as if they are made of paper, while other build mud nests that look slightly like pottery.
Ticks
Ticks can be found throughout the Metro Atlanta area, and hard to get rid of once they have infested an area. As ticks carry a host of different diseases, many of which are quite serious for both humans and pets, you will need to contact an expert skilled in tick extermination as soon as possible.
Mosquitoes
Having any sort of impact against the 12 species of mosquitoes that inhabit Georgia is impressive. If you can do it naturally, that’s even better. Healthy Home Termite & Pest Control has a targeted and environmentally friendly solution to your mosquito problem. If you’re looking to make less of an impact on the environment, or simply to reduce your family’s exposure to chemicals, try out our oil-based, eco-friendly solution.
Flies
Beetles
Beetles come in many different sizes and shapes and are known for having shell-like front wings that are very hard. In fact, there are many different types of beetles, from carpet beetles to click beetles, Asian Lady beetles, and American Spider beetles. When it comes to identifying a beetle in your home or office, you may notice a line down their back where the two front wings meet. Although beetles have wings, you’ll rarely notice them flying.

Yellowjackets
Identifying stinging pests can be fairly simple when located outside of your home. Bees, wasps, yellow jackets, and other stinging pests usually have built nests somewhere around your home. You’ll usually see them flying in and out of the nest.
Stinging Insects
Stinging insects send thousands of people to the emergency room each year. These pests are often more active during the second half of summer and the beginning of fall when the colonies forage for food to support them throughout the winter. Common stinging pests in Georgia include...
Midges
Midges and crane flies are frequently mistaken for mosquitoes. Midges are similar in appearance, but do not drink blood. Crane flies are too large (think oversized mosquito) but are no more than an annoyance.
Take time before you make any major investment and schedule a professional inspection of your potential real estate investment. Who knows what could already be living in that “vacant” property?
Rodents are no fun. They skitter about, eating your food or your pet’s food, leaving droppings, and generally making your house a mess. They can spread disease, chew on wires or furniture, and even make holes in your walls. But you don’t have to live with rodents; contact Healthy Home Termite and Pest Control for rodent removal and other rodent exterminator services.

Rats
When beginning to determine a pest problem it’s always best to start at the source. When dealing with pests such as rats, mice, and squirrels, determining how they could or have gotten into your home is half the battle. Once this has been discovered, it is important to take precautionary measures to reduce the risk of pests getting back in.
Squirrels
If critters like squirrels, or rats burrow into your property, they can cause plumbing and electronic issues with their chewing habits. Also their feces and urine can bring bacteria and disease into your home.
