TERMITES
Termites. It’s incredible to witness the damage such a small creature can inflict. With an amenable climate for these pests, Texas is highly prone to termites and the infestations that can come with them. They can eat your home from the inside out, causing problems that can start as cosmetic and wind up as structural. Three species inhabit Texas, winged termites, subterranean termites, and dry termites being the most prolific. The best way to know if your home is safe is to get a professional inspection. We recommend having your home inspected by a professional once a year. We also offer 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!

BED BUGS
Bed bugs are often the most dreaded bug infestation in the eyes of the general public. If you’re terrified of bed bugs entering your home, you’re not alone! Let’s take a look at bed bugs: their appearance, their behaviors, myths, prevention, and, the topic everyone wants to know about, bed bug treatment.
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.

DON’T BUG ME MILLIPEDES!
Millipedes, the double footed lookalike of the centipede. Although similar in appearance, the differences between the two are stark. For one, millipedes are not venomous. They won’t bite or sting, but they may emit a nasty smelling liquid—so you may want to avoid picking them up. If you just can’t help yourself or have to handle a millipede, it’s suggested you wash your hands immediately afterwards as with any insect that spends it’s life crawling through debris and decaying matter. Millipedes are rarely found inside homes, as they won’t live long outside of damp conditions. If you continually see millipedes in your home, it may be indicative of larger problems such as water damage. As with many pests, it’s recommended that you keep debris and decaying matter away from exterior walls and manage points of moisture across your property. If you have any questions or need any help with your pest control problems, the 855Bugs team is here to help you!
