Expert Pest Solutions In Baymeadows Center, FL
The first step in pest control is identifying the pests that need to be treated. There are unique differences that will determine what methods or products need to be used. When your Duval County pest control technician performs an inspection of your property, pest identification will be a priority. Let's take a look at a few ways pest identification is key to residential and commercial pest control in Baymeadows Center.
Residential Pest Control In Baymeadows Center, FL
When you get year-round residential pest control for your home, you'll get routine visits from a technician. During these visits, the first thing your technician is going to do is inspect your property and evaluate pest pressures and pest activity.
Here are a few ways pest identification plays a role in what treatments will be applied:
- If carpenter ant damage or frass is noticed, or carpenter ants are found, your technician will select an appropriate bait that carpenter ants typically take. Some carpenter ants prefer sweets so a liquid bait may be used. Some carpenter ants prefer protein so a granular bait may be used.
- If cockroaches are discovered during an inspection, your technician will determine the species. Some cockroaches don't present a threat to human health and can be managed with routine perimeter applications. Some cockroaches require high levels of moisture, and your technician will inform you of ways you may be able to naturally deter them. When targeted control is needed, your technician will choose baits and methods that are known to work for the species that has been identified.
- During your inspection, your technician may go over any things you've noticed. If you report that you've been seeing a brown rat on your property, your technician knows that brown rats are Norway rats, a species that often creates burrows in the ground. Using this knowledge, your technician can offer a treatment strategy and locate likely areas where these rats may be found.
Pest identification provides helpful information that your technician is able to use to manage pests on your property. These three examples are only a few of the many ways pest identification plays an important role in residential pest control, and identification is only one of the tools in your technician's toolbox.
Commercial Pest Control In Baymeadows Center, FL
In a commercial environment, pest identification helps your commercial specialist deal with difficult pest control challenges, such as keeping Indian meal moths, beetles, and weevils out of stored food products, or preventing Pharaoh ants from infesting medical facilities.
IPM-trained commercial pest control specialists use methods such as biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, resistant varieties, and more. These scientific methods require a clear understanding of how pests behave, breed, and nest. In cases where a particular species presents a unique threat, as is the case with Pharaoh ants, your commercial specialist uses specialized knowledge from the field of entomology to solve even the most difficult infestations.

What's The Difference Between Wasps & Hornets In Baymeadows Center?
All hornets are wasps, but only one wasp species in the United States is a true hornet species. It is the European hornet. If you have European hornets in your yard, you're likely to notice them. Workers can be an inch long.
If you see these hornets, there are a few helpful facts you'll immediately know about them, such as:
- Though they nest in voids, they don't create hidden nests in the ground, the way yellow jackets do.
- Though they create paper nests, they don't create nests that are fully exposed, like a paper wasp does.
- When European hornets nest in tree voids, they can be difficult to treat. These nests can be up to 30 feet off the ground.
- When European hornets nest in the voids of your home, you should not seal holes or gaps they're using to get inside. These wasps are known to damage interior wall coverings as they attempt to escape sealed voids.
- While scary to look at, the sting of a European hornet is no worse than a bee sting.
- These are social wasps. If workers feel that their nest is being threatened, they'll gather into a swarm and attack.
If you have trouble with wasps on your property, contact Mission Pest Solutions. It can be a painful chore when you attempt to get rid of a wasp nest.
How Baymeadows Center Residents Can Tell If They Have A Spider Infestation
Most pest spiders create webs. When you find webs on your property, it is a helpful sign that you have spider activity. But those webs can tell you something else. A tangled web found in a void or low area could be a black widow spider web. If you break a strand and it makes a plucking sound, it is time to contact Mission Pest Solutions. We can come evaluate your spider control issue and help to stop black widow spiders from coming into your yard.
