termite control in lyon charter twp

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.

lyon charter twp rat control

Rats are one of the most dreaded pests around. With the ability to squeeze through a hole as small as the size of a quarter and chew through glass, cinderblock, wire, and aluminum, rats have no problem making their way into homes.

They can potentially wreak tons of havoc on a home by:

• Contaminating food by eating it, urinating on it, and leaving droppings on it

• Spreading diseases and bacteria throughout a home

• Chewing through wires, which can start a fire

• Chewing through the structure of a home

In order to keep these pests away, seal any holes or cracks along the foundation of your home, store food in airtight containers, keep your home clean, and keep all storage areas dry and clean.

american dog tick control in lyon charter twp

American dog ticks are the most common ticks in Lyon Twp and throughout Michigan. You can easily identify a dog tick by the white markings on its back. Adult American dog ticks will bite humans, but their most common prey animals are mice in their developing stages, and dogs and other larger mammals as adults.

Both nymphs and adults can transmit diseases such as Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Tularemia. These ticks are normally found in grassy, shrubby areas that border trees or forest. Hiking or animal trails are very common spots to pick up one of these unwanted hitchhikers!

lyon charter twp house mice control

House mice are common in homes and businesses around open grassy areas in Lyon Twp. While they can live outdoors, they love taking up residence in man-made structures like houses or commercial buildings.

Once inside, they look for dark, secure areas to build their nests in. One of their favorite places to nest is in-between walls. Mice nests are normally made out of paper or fiber products like fabric, packing material, etc. If conditions are to their liking (available food and water, plus a secure nesting spot) mice will reproduce extremely quickly.
