Common House Pests

Posted by Pest Control

Here’s a list of common pests that can be found around the home:

  • Ants - These include types such as fire ants, pavement ants, tree ants and odorous house ants. Termites although commonly called white ants do not fit into this class.
  • Bats.
  • Bed Bugs - Usually treatable via a do it yourself solution.
  • Cockroaches - Also treatable with common off the shelf products although severe cases require a professional pest controller.
  • Fleas.
  • Rodents - This class includes pests such as mice and rats.
  • Silverfish.
  • Termites - Common types include the drywood termite and subterranean termite.
  • Wasps.

Whilst some of these pests can be treated yourself as indicated, most of the pests above require professional pest control services as they have the experience and equipment to deal with them. It is also true that some pests are prone to come back if not dealt with properly the first time so the comfort of knowing that the job is done right is nice to have.
