There are numerous species of ants that are common in our area. DSPM, ant exterminator, can perform extermination service for all of them. Some of the more common species include: pavement ants, odorous house ants, argentine ants, acrobat ants, thief ants, pharoah ants & carpenter ants.
Spiders
There are hundreds of species of spiders that inhabit our area. Too many to mention. But the most important one is the BLACK WIDOW. Yes, we do have black widow spiders in our area; especially in heavily wooded areas.
Bed Bugs
If you are planning to have an extermination treatment, please review DS Pest Management's preparation instructions for bed bug exterminations and flea exterminations. For effective extermination treatments, it is extremely important to follow DS Pest Management's recommended procedures.
Fleas
FLEAS are making a comeback & in a BIG WAY. For many years exterminators were rarely necessary to control fleas, due to the effectiveness of the "Frontline" & "Advantage" products available for use on pets. However, within the last year or so many flea populations have developed resistance to "fipronil", the primary active ingredient in most of these products. As a result, the local flea population has exploded.
Cockroaches
For German Cockroaches, it is highly recommended (but NOT required) to follow up the initial treatment with at least a few monthly maintenance services by DSPM, cockroach exterminator Glen Rock PA. The base rate may be temporarily, marginally higher in heavy infestation situations. If you opt for a maintenance service, we want to emphasize that this is NOT a “contract” service. You have the opportunity to cancel the maintenance plan at any time. Many residential customers will keep an “every-other-month” regular service cycle due to the cost effectiveness & peace of mind that it provides. Although this is not a contract, it is necessary to keep up regular services (at least every-other-month frequency) in order to sustain maintenance rate pricing. We do enforce a “90 day” threshold of automatic cancelation. After 90 days of no service performed, the maintenance service is voided & it would be necessary to pay the “clean-out” rate again in order to resume with the maintenance plan. If you do opt for monthly maintenance service, a “free service” warranty is included. Also, mouse baiting (if necessary) is included with monthly maintenance service by DSPM, cockroach exterminator Glen Rock PA.
Silverfish
Base rate is $135 per service (4 scheduled visits/yr.) & covers most homes up to 2,000 sq. ft.. This is the most comprehensive plan & includes a *Free service warranty. **Target pests include all species of Ants, Centipedes, Earwigs, Ground Beetles, Silverfish, Spiders, Mice & Bees/Wasps.
Bees
What we do: DSPM, bee exterminator & wasp exterminator, uses a special type of “non-repellant” material that is injected into these entry/exit holes that the bees/wasps are using. Because of it's non-repellant nature, the intruders will continue their normal activity after the treatment. Because the material also works relatively slowly, the insects will have plenty of opportunity to travel through the insecticide & take it into the nest, transferring it to the other workers & eventually to the queen. This process will only take a day or so & will wipe out the entire colony. As part of the service, DSPM, bee exterminator & wasp exterminator, will also inspect around the perimeter of the home for any other potential bee nests that the homeowner may not be aware of.
Wasps
What we do: DSPM, bee exterminator York PA & wasp exterminator York PA, uses a special type of “non-repellant” material that is injected into these entry/exit holes that the bees/wasps are using. Because of it's non-repellant nature, the intruders will continue their normal activity after the treatment. Because the material also works relatively slowly, the insects will have plenty of opportunity to travel through the insecticide & take it into the nest, transferring it to the other workers & eventually to the queen. This process will only take a day or so & will wipe out the entire colony. As part of the service, DSPM, bee exterminator York PA & wasp exterminator York PA, will also inspect around the perimeter of the home for any other potential bee nests that the homeowner may not be aware of.
Crickets
Earwigs
Centipedes
Millipedes
Beetles
Hornets
Yellow Jackets, Paper Wasps, Bald-Faced Hornets & Mud-Dauber Wasps are all part of the “wasp” family. Many people are allergic to bee/wasp stings & they should not attempt to treat any nests on their own. DSPM, bee exterminator Dallastown PA & wasp exterminator Dallastown PA, can perform extermination service for all of them.
Yellow Jackets
Symptom: If you notice a steady stream of (what look like) bees constantly going in & out of a hole(s) on the outside of your home; they are probably Yellow Jackets. This is obvious evidence that you have a nest within the structure of your home. DO NOT attempt to spray into the hole with any store bought aerosol insecticides. And DO NOT plug up the hole that they are using. CALL A PROFESSIONAL! You are risking the possibility of forcing the yellow jackets inside your home if you try any of these ill-advised “do-it-yourself” techniques.
