Common Pests

There are over 4,000 species of spiders in North America. All spiders feed on insects and other small arthropods. Therefore, where there are spiders, there are other insects.

Ants can be difficult to control. Most do-it-yourself approaches only kill the ants you can see. Another major challenge with ants is that different kinds of ant infestations require very different treatments.

,All of these pests live year round. In colder, wintery areas many of these pests survive by overwintering. In these instances, a good fall and spring treatment is critical to controlling these types of pests.

All cockroaches are thigmatropic, which means they like to feel pressure on three sides of their body. Because of this, cockroaches spend as much as 75% of their lifetime in cracks and crevices.

Domestic rodents contaminate food by defecation, destroy structures by gnawing on them, transmit diseases, and harbor hazardous parasites.

Many of these pests are capable of transmitting serious diseases or damaging property. For more information, contact Vinx Pest Control directly.
