Insects and Spiders

Ants
Sugar ants are small ants that are attracted to sweet substances. They are commonly found in kitchens and pantries, where they feed on sugary foods, spilled liquids, and crumbs. They get their name from their preference for sugar, but they also eat other types of food, including fruit and meat. Sugar ants are known for their ability to form large colonies and can quickly become a nuisance in homes.
Spiders
There are two species of venomous spiders found in Vermont: the black widow and the brown recluse. Black widows have shiny black bodies and a red hourglass shape on their abdomen, while brown recluses have a brown body with a distinctive violin-shaped marking on their cephalothorax. However, it's important to note that these spiders are relatively rare in Vermont, and most spiders you encounter in your home are harmless. If you're unsure about the species of spider in your home, it's best to contact a pest control professional for identification.
Termites
Termites are social insects that live in colonies and feed on wood and other cellulose-based materials. They are a significant pest problem in New England because the region has a high concentration of older homes and buildings made of wood, which is the primary food source for termites. Moreover, New England's climate, with its damp, humid conditions, creates a conducive environment for termites to thrive.
Bed Bugs
We are on the front line of the battle to contain the spread of bedbugs using our mobile heat treatment process. Our heat treatment system (patent pending) has been the key to 100% successful elimination of even the most severe bedbug infestations. Customers like the fact that this treatment method greatly reduces the amount of pesticides used in their homes and eliminates the need for pesticide use on items that they are in daily contact with such as bedding, stuffed furniture, and dressers that store their clothes. The Abatem heat treatment system utilizes a mobile heat treatment truck or trailer and a computerized touch screen graphic control panel to guarantee 100% lethal results on every treatment. Multiple temperature sensors, user definable temperature thresholds and automatic safety functions ensure accurate even heating without damage to the heated contents.
Fleas
Fleas are tiny, blood-sucking insects that belong to the order Siphonaptera. They are small, wingless and have flattened bodies that make it easy for them to move through the hair or feathers of their hosts. Fleas can be a problem because they can cause skin irritation, allergies, and transmit diseases. The bites of fleas can result in a rash or an allergic reaction, which can be extremely uncomfortable, especially for pets that have sensitive skin.
Cockroaches
Cockroaches are attracted to a variety of things, including food particles, moisture, warmth, and shelter. They will often be found in kitchens and bathrooms, where there is a ready supply of food, water, and hiding places. To reduce the risk of an infestation, it is important to keep these areas clean and dry, and to seal any cracks or gaps where cockroaches could enter the building. Additionally, storing food in airtight containers, taking out the trash regularly, and fixing any leaks or standing water can help to deter cockroaches.
Bees
A: Honey bees and bumble bees are two of the most common types of bees. While they look similar, there are some differences between them. Honey bees have a slender, elongated body with fewer stripes compared to bumblebees. They also have a barbed stinger that detaches from their body when they sting, which can result in their death. In contrast, bumblebees have a fuzzy, round body and a smooth stinger that does not detach.
Wasps
Yellow jackets build their nests in the ground or in wall voids, while wasps build their nests in trees, on eaves, or under rooflines. Yellow jacket nests are often harder to locate because they are hidden, and they have a small entrance hole. Wasps' nests are often more visible and can be seen hanging from tree branches or eaves of buildings.
Mosquitoes
Spiders are attracted to areas with a lot of insects, so if you have a lot of other pests in your home, such as flies or mosquitoes, you may also have a spider infestation. Additionally, cluttered and dark spaces can provide ideal hiding spots for spiders, so keeping your home clean and organized can help prevent infestations.
Flies
Cluster flies are a type of fly that is known for congregating in large numbers, especially in the fall and winter months. They are typically larger and slower-moving than other types of flies, and are often found in homes and other buildings where they seek shelter from the cold. Cluster flies do not pose a direct threat to human health, but their presence can be a nuisance and they can create unsanitary conditions.
Beetles
Powder post beetles are a group of small, wood-boring insects that can cause significant damage to wooden structures and furniture. There are several species of powder post beetles, but the most common is the Anobiid beetle. These beetles have long, narrow bodies that are typically reddish-brown in color and range in size from 1/8 to 1/4 inch long. The larvae of powder post beetles feed on the wood fibers and can cause extensive damage to the structural integrity of wooden items.
Yellowjackets
Wasps, yellow jackets, and bees all belong to the Hymenoptera order, but they have some distinct differences. Wasps have narrow waists and smooth, shiny bodies, and they can be brightly colored. Yellow jackets have similar bodies, but they are more stocky, and they have bright yellow and black bands. Bees are typically rounder and fuzzier than wasps and yellow jackets, and they are usually brown or black with yellow or orange stripes.

Rodent Control

Rodents
To get rid of a rodent infestation, you should first identify the entry points and seal them up to prevent new rodents from entering your home. Then, set up traps or use rodenticides to control the existing population. It's important to follow the instructions carefully when using these products, as they can be harmful to humans and pets if used improperly.
Mice
Signs of a rodent infestation include droppings, gnaw marks on walls, floors or furniture, scampering or scratching noises, nests made of shredded material, and a distinctive, musky odor. Mice and rats are also active at night, so you may see them darting across the floor when you turn on the lights.
Rats
Mice and rats can carry harmful diseases that can be transmitted to humans through their droppings, urine, and saliva. Hantavirus, Salmonella, and Listeria are just a few of the diseases that can be transmitted through rodent infestations. Additionally, their droppings and urine can cause allergic reactions in some people, triggering asthma symptoms and other respiratory problems.
