Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are one of the most terrible pests you can have in your home. They are small, brownish insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals. They are most active at night when they come out to feed on their victims. Bed bugs are tough to control and exterminate. They can hide in small cracks and crevices in your walls and furniture, making it difficult to find and kill them all.
But a few things you could do to get them away from your home or business:
Inspect secondhand furniture, beds, and mattresses before bringing them into your home or business.
Vacuum your home.
Rodents
Rodents are terrible pests for several reasons. First, they are unsanitary, spreading disease and contamination wherever they go. They also reproduce quickly, meaning a small infestation can quickly become a big problem.
Here is how you can get rid of them:
Put all food away in airtight containers and keep them away from where the rodents can reach them.
Use traps or poison to kill the rodents and dispose of them properly.
Wasps/Hornets
Wasps and hornets are terrible pests because they are very aggressive and attack humans and animals if they feel threatened. They can also sting multiple times, which can be very painful. A single sting can also cause an allergic reaction in some people.
You can get rid of wasps and hornets by calling a professional exterminator. They will be able to safely and effectively remove the pests from your home.
Ticks
Ticks can transmit diseases to humans and animals, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever and tularemia. Second, they can be complicated to eliminate once they’ve infested an area.

Dust regularly with a fine powder, such as diatomaceous earth, which can kill ticks on contact.
