Denton Pest Control Service can help control seasonal Cricket and Ground Beatle pests. October 27, 2009

Denton Pest Control Service owner Blake Williams offers some advice about crickets in North Texas. Normally crickets live outdoors where their diet consists primarily of wild grasses, small weeds, and leaf litter, dead insects and organic materials. When these natural food sources dry up-usually in the late summer or fall-the crickets may begin migrating in large numbers, randomly invading homes and other buildings in their paths. Summer rains after a period of drought may also trigger migrations. When the environmental conditions are just right (a prolonged wet spring season which promotes the growth of an abundance of weeds and grasses) the cricket population can build up into astronomical numbers. When fall comes and their habi [more info...]

Denton Pest Control Service asks: Do you have a small fly problem? October 27, 2009

Denton Pest Control Service owner Blake Williams, President of Service 1st Pest and Lawn Management, gives some advice on how to get rid of those pesky small flies in your kitchen area. You must remove the food source and eliminate breeding areas to achieve control of fruit flies, fungus nats and phorid flies. These small flies have a life-cycle of 10 days; sanitation is the only effective resolution. Service 1st Pest and Lawn can perform a chemical treatment and/or place traps, but this will only kill adults and briefly knock down the population. The breeding cycle must be broken with good sanitation. Address these frequent problems: Clean floor drains well. This is the main harborage area for fruit flies and phorid flies.

Dallas Heating and Air Conditioning Company talks about balance. October 26, 2009

Dallas Heating and Air Conditioning Company owner Steve Lauten, President of Total Air and Heat Co. in Plano, talks about balance in your HVAC System. Are some rooms in your home more comfortable than others? All rooms are not alike. Some are warmer when you'd rather they be cool, some are cooler when you'd rather they be warm. How is this happening? A number of variables could be having an impact. For example, direct exposure to sunlight heats up a room - good in winter, not so good in summer. [caption id="attachment_285" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Heat and Air Duct System"][/caption] Electronics could play a role here, if high-speed computers and accessories are plugged in, powered up and producing heat.

Carrollton Pest Control Company talks about "Skunks" October 08, 2009

Carrollton Pest Control Service owner Blake Williams of Service 1st Pest and Lawn offers advice on "Skunks". This time of year we always get a few calls concerning skunks around the house. This usually occurs when skunks are looking for a place to over winter. The chances that Skunks will set up house near you are increased if there is a food source, especially trash dumpsters. Most of the time they will dig and nest uner porches or in crawl spaces. Skunks are relatively easy to live trap. Removeing them is the hard part. Canned pet food or sardines work well as bait. Once you have them in the trap, get a dark colored bed sheet and slowly approach the trap holding the sheet up so the skunk cannot see you. throw the sheet [more info...]
