TERMITES

Termites. It’s incredible to witness what kind of damage such a small creature can inflict. With an amenable climate for these pests, Texas is considered an environment highly prone to termites and the infestations that can come with them. These insects can eat your home from the inside out, causing problems that can start as cosmetic and wind up as structural. There are a few different species that inhabit Texas, winged termites, subterranean termites, and dry termites being the most prolific. Each of these can cause problems, and the best way to know if your home is safe is to have a professional inspection. Thankfully 855Bugs provides peace of mind with our Free Inspection. It’s recommended to have your home inspected at least once a year by a professional, and if you’re considering building a new home, we’d be happy to talk to you about our pre-construction treatments that help ward off termites from day one. 855Bugs has been helping people in the Waco and Temple area manage termites for over 10 years! Give us a call, and we’d be happy to help ensure termites are never a threat to your home or livelihood.

RODENTS

Mice, rats, and other rodents are extremely resourceful and persistent creatures. Did you know a mouse can squeeze through an opening as small as ½ inch? And, don’t think you’re safe because that hole is only ¼ inch. They can easily chew through many surfaces to make that hole large enough to sneak through. Rats are excellent swimmers. While it certainly doesn’t happen often, rats can swim through sewer lines and wind up in your toilet bowl.

High Quality Attic Insulation That Prevents Pests? Yes, It Really Works

 

Can attic insulation actually be successful at preventing pests? Yes, it’s highly effective against many types of pests – but not all of them. Do not think of this as a 100% guarantee against future infestations, but rather a powerful tool in long-term pest prevention.

Our insulation is installed in the attic – ground zero for a majority of home pest infestations. It contains an additive that’s highly effective at eliminating many common arthropod household pests. When these pests crawl through the insulation, the additive sticks to them and causes them to die. Pests never build up a tolerance to the additive and its effectiveness on the insulation ever wears off.

Common pests our insulation protects against:

  • Ants
  • Booklice
  • Centipedes
  • Crickets
  • Darkling beetles
  • Earwigs
  • Roaches
  • Silverfish
  • Sow bug

For active pest infestations, you should consult a licensed pest control operator.
