As anyone who has lived here for long can attest to, there is no shortage of Sacramento pest problems, from cockroaches in summer to rodents and raccoons in fall and winter. Most Sacramento business or home owners are not new to these various unwanted guests that often make their presence known at the worst times and in the worst locations. When possums, raccoons, roaches, ants, wasps, spiders, centipedes, and more decide to make home in your property, the cheapest and safest way to eliminate them is through a licensed pest control specialist.
Some minor pest populations can be mitigated through inexpensive over-the-counter traps and poisons. However, many of these products, such as ant traps, never actually address the source of the problem and merely lower immediate and visible ant populations for the time being. Similarly, some pests can have bring with them incredible property damage, as seen in termites and rodents. These tough-to-eliminate pests can bill up pricey repair bills before they’re removed – unless a professional is brought in to quickly an inexpensively remove them at their source.
Further, there are some pests that are potentially very hazardous to attempt to remove on your own. Killer bees, wasps, and ants can all carry painful if not hazardous stings and bites when not dealt with properly. Those with a known or unknown allergy are at an even higher risk of at-home elimination techniques merely irritating their colonies. Similarly, rodents historically are known to carry a host of diseases and pests of their own in the form of fleas.
A recent outbreak of the bubonic plague in Colorado carried by fleas spread by uncontrolled rat populations shows that these are pest that are still worthy of careful removal. For these reasons and more, a professional pest company such as Specialized Pest Patrol is the easiest and most efficient way to get rid of pest problems at their source.
