auburn hills termite control

Costing billions of dollars’ worth of damage each year, termites are every homeowner’s worst nightmare. Since they are often hidden away within the structure of a home, they can be there for years before a homeowner finally discovers them. The three types of termites are subterranean, drywood, and dampwood. All in search of wood, termites have the potential to cause extensive, irreversible damage to your home.

Things that attract termites include:

• Excess foliage
• Piles of wood
• Dead or decaying trees
• Mulch
• Cellulose material
• Clogged gutters
• Warm, dark places
• Moist soil

If you notice winged ants, mud tubes, wings that have been shed, or structural damage to your home, you might be facing a termite infestation.

vole control in auburn hills

Also known as meadow mice or field mice, voles prefer the outdoors. These grey or brown rodents range from 4 to 8.5 inches in length, have tiny eyes, and have partially hidden ears. Because they do not hibernate, voles are active day and night all year long.

They eat:

• Grasses
• Bark
• Seeds
• Crops
• Insects
• Animal remains

Voles are known to cause extensive damage to lawns, field crops, golf courses, trees, and more by creating complex underground tunnel systems. These tunnels have multiple entrances and can house several voles. To protect your yard against these rodents, you should keep mulch away from trees, keep your grass trimmed, and remove ground cover.

The brown marmorated stinkbug is a pest that bothers people in both agricultural and residential areas of Auburn Hills. Many Auburn Hills residents have told us that they first noticed they had an infestation of stinkbugs when they spotted the critters trying to get into their homes through their windows and doors in fall.

This is because brown marmorated stinkbugs like to spend the colder winter months in a nice, warm, sheltered place – like your home! You might also spot them in spring when they are ready to head back outside after hiding in your walls or attic over the winter.

Paper wasps are also common in Auburn Hills. These wasps like to build their nests under horizontal surfaces like beams and supports in sheds, garages or attics. They are particularly concerning because if they feel threatened they will attack people or pets.

If you think you have stinkbugs or paper wasps in your home (or any other pests), you don’t need to try to tackle the problem yourself.
