AFRICAN HONEY BEE EXTERMINATION
Bee Aware….. Look, Listen, Run
Africanized/Honey Bees are more aggressive than standard bees. They can make their nests within the walls of homes through little holes on the exterior walls that are not properly sealed up, or their nests can be made by hanging in numerous places throughout your property. Bees release an “alarm pheromone” just after they sting, which signals others to come & attack. In the case of Africanized honey bees, this could mean almost the entire hive.
- An inspection of your home will be done, where we will evaluate possible and confirmed entry points, and give pricing and recommendations.
- Treatment will include sealing up entry points and removal of bees. Upon treatment completion we can offer you a lifetime renewable warranty.
TAMPA BEDBUG REMOVAL
Bed Bugs are blood-feeding insects that feed mainly on the blood of humans, but also suck blood from other animals. They mainly feed at night and need food in order to mate. Bed Bugs reproduce quickly, so a few can turn into a Bed Bug infestation in a very short amount of time. Severe Bed Bug infestations tend to have a sweet, foul odor. Over 80% of Bed Bug infestations occur in the mattress or box spring; but, can also be found in other furniture. Bed Bugs are transmitted from one place to another by “hitchhiking” on clothing, suitcases, second-hand beds, furniture and bedding and are oval-shaped and look like apple seeds. Bed Bug bites are similar to mosquito bites as the bitten area becomes swollen and hard. Although Bed bug infestations were widespread in years past (post WWII) and seemed to have diminished, due to the changes and regulations in pest control over the years, we are seeing Bed bug infestations more commonly again. A bed bug infestation can be recognized by blood stains from crushed bugs or by rusty (sometimes dark) spots of excrement on sheets and mattresses, bed clothes and walls. Fecal spots, eggshells and shed skins may be found in the vicinity of their hiding places.
- An inspection of your home will be done, where we will evaluate possible infestations, and give pricing and recommendations.
- A treatment will be recommended only based upon many different factors that will be taken into account once we have evaluated the degree of your problem.
CARIBBEAN CRAZY ANTS
Caribbean Crazy Ants are named so because of their rapid, erratic movements. They are golden-brown to reddish-brown in color and range from 1/16-inch to 1/8-inch in length. Caribbean Crazy Ants have become a severe nuisance in some areas of Florida and are difficult to control. We recommend our monthly pest control program to achieve best results with keeping Caribbean Crazy Ants at bay. CLICK HERE FOR A HELPFUL HOMEOWNERS INFO SHEET
Carpenter Ant Killer
The Florida carpenter ant is a large to very large orange and black ant that ranges in size from 5 to 10 mm long. Carpenter ants enter buildings to nest or forage. They are called “carpenters” because they excavate in wood that may be decayed or damaged by other insects. Interestingly, they are common in homes that have had a lot of subterranean termite damage to wood.
- We recommend enrolling in our Four Seasons Pest Control Program which includes carpenter ant prevention.
Carpenter Bees Extermination
The Carpenter Bee is a large bee that has a blue-black, green or purple metallic sheen, and most are characterized by a shiny, relatively hairless abdomen. They often burrow into the exposed dry wood of buildings fascia and soffits, decks, telephone poles, fence posts and bridges. They often attack such objects as windowsills, wooden siding, eaves, decks and railings. The round entrance hole measures 3/8″ in diameter. A carpenter bee infestation is often detected by finding large amounts of sawdust and pollen on the ground below the area being chewed and excavated.
- Treatment will be a customized solution to your unique situation. We specially treat each carpenter bee hole where infestation has occurred.
Drain Fly Control
A typical reason for why someone might inquire about this service is that you would see little flies flying around the kitchen and bathroom sink areas. The Drain Fly (aka Filter Flies or Sewage Flies) primarily live and breed in drains, thriving on the sediment within the drains, which bring it into contact with potentially disease-causing bacteria. The life-cycle extends from eight to 24 days at 58 °F – 86 °F.
- Treatment for drain flies is applied by one of our professional technicians. Once we begin the process, it typically takes 1-2 weeks to completely rid the home of the problem. Typical service includes two – four visits for residential to solve problem. Commercial properties typically require an initial treatment, followed by monthly preventative measures.

Bat Removal
If you are seeing bats emerge from various openings from your home at dusk and are hearing squeaking and rustling noises coming from ceilings and walls, you may have a bat colony present. Bats in your attic can enter through very small gaps or cracks around your walls, roof line, chimneys or vents around your home and present a very serious problem. Bats will urinate and defecate anywhere they roost, which stain and cause odor problems. More importantly, they are associated with many diseases that are harmful to humans.
- An inspection of your home will be conducted and recommendations made not to only treat but to prevent re-infestation.
- Treatment will be customized based on your unique specific situation. Properly sealing up all openings will be crucial to prevent other generations from infesting the structure. This is where we differentiate from most other companies. Once all openings are sealed up, we will give our lifetime warranty for that location.
