When Is It Time To Call A Pest Control Company?

February 14, 2024

Have you seen a cockroach scurrying across your kitchen floor? Or heard a mouse scratching inside your walls? Pests are a common problem that many homeowners face. They can cause damage to your property, spread diseases and create a nuisance. But how do you know when it is time to call a pest control company? In this blog post, we will answer this question and more. We will explain why professional pest control is the best solution for your pest problems and how you can benefit from it.

Spotting The Early Warning Signs Of Pest Infestation

Before we dive deep into the signs, it's essential to understand that early detection can save you not only a significant amount of stress but also money in the long run.


Visible Pests

The most obvious sign is seeing the pests themselves. If you spot one, there's a good chance more are hiding out of sight.


Droppings And Urine

Finding droppings or evidence of urine, especially from rodents, is a clear indicator of an infestation.


Damage To Property

Look out for unexplained damage to furniture, wiring or the structure of your home, as this can be a sign of pests.


Sounds And Smells

Unusual noises, such as scratching in the walls or a musty smell, can also signal the presence of pests.

How Do You Determine The Severity Of Your Pest Problem?

Determining the severity of your pest problem is crucial. A single ant might not be alarming, but finding a trail of them could indicate a larger issue. Similarly, spotting a mouse or rat inside your home is a definite sign of a problem, as these pests rarely venture out alone. If you're noticing pests regularly or in large numbers, it's time to consider professional help.

The Real Costs Of Waiting: When Pest Control Can't Be Delayed

Delaying pest control can lead to more than just the nuisance of having pests around; it can have real consequences:
  • Health Risks: Pests can carry diseases harmful to humans and pets.
  • Property Damage: Termites, rodents and other pests can cause significant damage to your home, leading to costly repairs.
  • Increased Infestation: The longer pests are left unchecked, the more established they become, making them harder to eradicate.
