Termites can cause billions of dollars worth of property damage every year. These little wood-eaters make their way into rotting, damp, and damaged wood creating vast colonies that lead to large-scale destruction. As they weaken the wood from the inside out, the structural integrity of your home is threatened, putting the safety of your loved ones at risk.
Termite damage is largely avoidable. If you take the proper preventative measures to protect your home, you can significantly reduce your chances of suffering from a termite infestation. A lot of these measures have to do with reducing moisture around the house. Termites require moisture to survive and are attracted to damp areas, so maintaining proper moisture levels around your home is a great way to make your property less susceptible to termite activity.
Though you can take preventative measures to avoid termite damage, there are no guaranteed methods of prevention that are 100% effective. The most effective way to prevent potential termite activity is to get regular maintenance and preventative treatments from a professional pest control company. The team at Jay Taylor Exterminating has the necessary experience and termite control solutions to handle your termite situation, however big or small it may be. Contact us today.
When we think of mosquitoes, we usually associate them with the uncomfortable, itchy bites that they leave. While these bites are annoying and unpleasant, most of us assume they’ll go away after a week or so and shouldn’t cause too much concern. But, when mosquitoes bite, they inject their saliva into your bloodstream, and this can expose you to a long list of vector-borne illnesses that you should be aware of.
Zika virus
Dengue
Malaria
West Nile virus
Chikungunya
Yellow fever
Jamestown Canyon virus
Encephalitis
Needless to say, there may be a lot more to a mosquito bite than meets the eye. You never know what diseases a mosquito may be carrying, and that’s why it’s important to schedule regular mosquito control treatments from the pest professionals at Jay Taylor Exterminating.
Many types of rodents are scurrying around North Carolina, but there are a few species that are very common in this area. Look over the three most commons species listed below and contact Jay Taylor Exterminating at the first sign of rodent activity.
Norway Rats
Norway rats have grayish-brown coats of fur, and they can measure up to ten inches long. They are excellent diggers and stay close to the ground.
Roof Rats
Roof rats have black fur, pale underbellies, and measure around eight inches long. Their tails are much longer than the tail of Norway Rats. They hunt for food and shelter above ground.
House Mice
House mice are a light brown or gray color with a light-colored underbelly. Overall, they are smaller than rats, but their ears are rather large, and their tails are rather long compared to the size of their bodies.
