San Lorenzo, CA Pest Control

Why Wasps Invade San Lorenzo Yards And How To Keep Them Out

When you have wasps in your San Lorenzo yard, these pests can pose a serious threat to your outdoor time. Wasps are very territorial and can sting multiple times, putting you and your family members at risk of anaphylactic shock even if you’re not allergic.

Wasps are attracted to any form of sugar that they can feed on, so the best ways to limit wasp attraction to your property are:

• Taking down hummingbird feeders
• Eliminating fallen fruit
• Storing outdoor trash properly
• Keeping sugary sodas closed unless drinking

While these methods can reduce your chances of a wasp infestation, the best way to eradicate wasp problems is to remove their nests with the help of a professional pest control technician. Since wasps are very territorial and can issue a distress signal to other nearby wasps, messing with their nests is one of the most dangerous activities that you can do. 

You should never attempt to get rid of nests from your San Lorenzo property without calling a Bay Pest residential technician first. We will provide advanced de-nesting services and make recommendations on how to reduce wasp attraction to your specific property.

Mosquito Control Every San Lorenzo, CA Resident Needs To Know

If you have spent much time in your San Lorenzo backyard, you’ve probably noticed the frustrating presence of mosquitoes. What you may not have realized is that mosquitoes are actually some of the most dangerous pests in the world. Since they can transfer dangerous illnesses from bite victim to bite victim, mosquitoes will put everyone in your backyard at risk, so prevention is a must.

Mosquitoes will invade your property in search of their favorite breeding ground:  any amount of standing water above a half-inch. Unfortunately, this could include a variety of items, especially after a rainstorm, including:

• Unevenly maintained spots in the lawn
• Wheelbarrows
• Flower pots
• Birdbaths

Unfortunately, pouring the water out of these items will not necessarily break the breeding cycle if there are already larvae present. That’s why our Bay Pest residential pest-control experts provide high-quality mosquito treatments that can guarantee you a pest-free yard. 

With eco-friendly misting sprays and effective larvicide designed to break the breeding cycle, we have everything we need to get rid of your mosquito problem.
