The Real Dangers Ticks Pose To Los Fresnos Residents

It can be easy to assume that ticks are only a problem when you’re going out into the wilderness. But ticks can invade properties and can hitch rides back to our homes in a number of ways. As tiny parasites that bite people and pests to feed on blood, ticks have gotten good at clinging to hair, skin, and clothing to be brought back to our vehicles and homes. Once they’ve found an attractive place to nest, their numbers increase. Soon, you’ve got a full-blown infestation, one that you can’t easily eliminate. Not only do tick bites result in itchy welts on your skin, but they can also lead to diseases. The most common one to be transmitted through tick bites is Lyme disease, leading to serious side effects that can land you in the hospital. If ticks do invade, or if you want tips on avoiding them infesting your property, contact the experts at BUGWORKS Termite & Pest Control today.

Are Ants Dangerous To My Los Fresnos Home?

Most people don’t think of ants as dangerous pests. Sure, they can be annoying and gross when they contaminate food sources, but most species don’t harm us directly or spread sickness. But some ants can lead to much bigger problems than their small size might otherwise indicate. This is why proper ant control is such a worthwhile investment for your Los Fresnos property. Here are some of the dangers an ant infestation can pose:

  • Damage: Just like termites, carpenter ants can chew through woods and lead to structural damage.
  • Disease: Some species can carry diseases, just like other pests do. Pharaoh ants, for example, are known to carry salmonella.
  • Population: Ant colonies can support hundreds or thousands of members, so an ant problem can quickly grow out of control. As ants take over, other pests that hunt them are attracted to a property.
