Stinging Insects Stinging insects are those pests that can make spending time outside in your yard stressful & dangerous. Stinging insects have a stinger located at the end of their abdomen that predatory species use to paralyze prey with & that pollinators use to defend.

Spiders Spiders are predatory, feeding on insects and other spiders. They are beneficial in helping to control insect populations but are less beneficial when they decide to live in big numbers in our yards or, even worse, inside of our homes!

Rodents Rodents plague home and business owners throughout most of the country for most of the year. They have become used to living near people and can find their way into any structure at any time. The most common rodent intruders are mice and rats.

Mites Mites are small pests (most are about the size of a pinhead) that are closely related to spiders. There is a wide range of mites that live both outside and inside our homes. Mites have piercing mouthparts that they use to feed.

Fleas One of the most frustrating pests to deal with is the flea. Their tiny size and ability to jump quickly out of sight make them a pest that is difficult to prevent and eliminate. Fleas are wingless insects with hard flattened bodies that are reddish-brown.
-
Cockroaches Cockroaches have an oval-shaped body and long antennae. Most have wings, but cockroaches are not known to be great flyers. Cockroaches use their six legs to move quickly from place to place.

Bed Bugs Adult bed bugs grow to about a quarter of an inch in length & are reddish-brown. After feeding, they turn a deeper reddish-purple color, & their body swells in size. These insects are wingless & cannot jump. To move place to place, they hitchhike on people
