Dealing With Ants

Ants can be frustrating to deal with, especially since you may have dozens or even hundreds at a time. Here are several precautionary measures you can employ to effectively manage ant populations in your home or business.

• Block entry points. The best way to keep ants out of your home is to prevent them from entering in the first place. Seal cracks and crevices around windows, doors, and entry points where ants might be entering your home. 
• Keep your home clean. Ants are attracted to food sources, so wipe down surfaces, sweep floors, and clean up crumbs promptly. Store food in airtight containers. Focus on the area in and around the kitchen.
• Trim vegetation. Keep vegetation and trees trimmed away from your home. Ants often use branches and foliage as bridges to enter buildings.
• Remove attractive odors. Ants use pheromone trails to communicate with each other. Wiping down surfaces with soapy water can help remove these trails and keep them out of your home.

Dealing With Termites

If you have termites, you will need the help of a professional. These pests are hard to eradicate and they may be found all throughout your home. Golden Circle Exterminators’ pest control professionals use BASF’s Termidor as the best termite treatment to get rid of termites for good. Termidor kills termites through contact and ingestion. Working with our pest control and extermination experts can help ensure a longer-lasting treatment for your home or business.

Here are some signs that you may have termites:

• Mud tubes. Termites construct mud tubes to provide protection while traveling between their nest and a food source. These tubes are typically found along walls and foundations.
• Wood damage. Termites feed on wood from the inside out, which can make it difficult to detect their presence. Look for wood that sounds hollow when tapped or wood that appears to be damaged or crumbling.
• Swarmers. Termite swarmers, also known as flying termites or alates, are reproductive termites that leave the colony to establish new colonies. They are attracted to light and are most commonly seen during the spring or early summer. 
• Termite droppings. Drywood termites produce tiny fecal pellets that resemble sawdust or coffee grounds. These pellets are commonly found below infested wood.
• Discarded wings. After swarming, termite swarmers shed their wings, which can often be found near window sills and light fixtures.
• Sagging floors or ceilings. In severe cases of termite infestation, the structural integrity of a building may be compromised, leading to sagging floors and ceilings.

Dealing With Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes can be a huge nuisance, especially when you’re outdoors in the summer. Here are some ways to get rid of these annoying pests:

• Remove standing water. Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water, so be sure to regularly empty containers like flower pots, bird baths, and buckets.
• Use mosquito repellents. Apply mosquito repellents to exposed skin when outdoors, especially during dawn and dusk, when mosquitoes are most active.
• Install screens. Ensure that windows and doors are fitted with screens to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home.
• Keep your yard trimmed. Mosquitoes rest in tall grass and shrubs during the day, so keeping your lawn trimmed and bushes pruned can help reduce their habitat.
• Plant mosquito-repelling plants. Some plants, such as citronella, lavender, marigolds, and basil, have natural mosquito-repelling properties. 

Be aware that while these measures can be effective, mosquitoes may still find their way into your living spaces. Working with our pest control/extermination experts can help ensure a longer-lasting treatment for your home or business.
