Oklahoma has huge colonies of termites in it's soil. As you can see from the map above, our Tulsa area soil is heavily infested with termites and we have the perfect weather here for termites to thrive. Once that humid air starts pushing up from the Gulf of Mexico in March we start seeing termite swarmers (termite alates). These termites swarm and seek out new breading grounds. Don't let your home be their choices.
Termites need protection and cover as they cannot stay in direct sunlight long. Termites will seek to establish their colony by the male king and female queen loosing their wings and seeking the security of moist soil and structure. Once this is found they will begin mating and forming a new termite colony.

Here is a depiction of how termites gain access to your home and the entry points to the structure that they easily find. You can clearly see they forage for food and stay out of the damaging light by building tunnels to protect themselves. Termites can be present but go without notice. Termites find cracks in the homes slab, forage through the ground in crawl spaces, live inside void spaces and in walls. They require water but easily can move from ground level where the moisture is to the wood which also contains moisture termites need with little standing in their way. This is why homeowners should have their property inspected yearly for any termite activity. Trust your homes protection from termites with a termite treatment by EnviroTech Exterminating. Call (918) 282-7621 and ask about a termite treatment estimate today.

Being in the pest control industry we often are asked, what do bed bug bites look like. We would like to discuss this question in some detail and hopefully this blog offers some answers.
Bed bug bites look very different from one person to another. Some bed bug bites are larger, some smaller, some have a red dot in the center, or a scab, others don’t, some look like mosquito bites or pimples. Some experts say that whether you get multiple bites in a pattern may have to do with whether the bed bug is disturbed while feeding (if you move, they may move and start over) or if your veins are easily accessed by the bed bugs (if they are, they need pierce only once).
Bed bug bite reactions differ from person to person. Some look and feel like mosquito or flea bites. Again, some people don’t react at all. On the opposite extreme, others get big itchy welts that take two or more weeks to heal. There’s a myth that bed bug bites occur in threes (“breakfast, lunch, and dinner”), but it’s not true. Bites can occur singly, in clumps, or in a line. Bites can show up within hours—or two weeks later.
Bed bugs usually feed while people sleep but if they’re hungry and given the opportunity, they feed anytime. Bed bugs sense carbon dioxide from animals and people. Many people react to the saliva, getting itchy bumps or rashes. After feeding for about five minutes, drawing only a drop or two of blood, bugs return to their harborage location. Although bed bugs can live for over a year without feeding, they typically seek blood every five to ten days depending on room temperature.
Bed bugs live off only blood—like mosquitoes do and they typically prefer to feed on people. They’re attracted by warmth and the presence of carbon dioxide—what we breathe out. They usually feed about an hour before dawn, but given the opportunity, they may feed at other times of day or night.
Remember—not everyone reacts to bed bug bites. You can have an extreme reaction while your companion or other household members have no signs of bed bug bites.
The only way to know for sure what is biting you is to find a bug and get it properly identified. A thorough inspection is the only way to determine if you need bed bug control. Bed bugs are extremely good at hiding and a bug inspection should be done by a pest control company that is extremely knowledgeable in finding signs of bed bug activity.
At EnviroTech Exterminating we specialize in the removal of many species of nuisance wildlife animals. We remove pests such as squirrels, raccoon, opossum, armadillo, skunk, gopher, even Bigfoot. EnviroTech offer's humane wildlife trapping and removal, relocation services of all nuisance wildlife pests. If you hear animals in your attic you might want to give EnviroTech a call.
Pests such as raccoons and squirrels chew into your electric lines in the attic, they leave feces and urine in the insulation & drywall which provides a great foundation for mold spores and other organisms to grow. Nuisance wildlife such as these are responsible for a high number of house fires, respiratory illness, diseases such as rabies and many hours of sleepless nights. If you have a nuisance wildlife animal issue that requires attention, contact EnviroTech Exterminating at (918) 282-7621. We provide pest control services for Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby, Coweta & Muskogee.
Finally some winter weather, not that we got much but with this recent cold front maybe the fleas, ticks and mosquitoes will not be nearly as bad this year as I figured they would be. We were in need of this weather as I was beginning the think Oklahoma had become a winter destination for people looking for warm weather. Pests are controlled somewhat by the weather and these cold fronts are great to limit the reproductive patterns of many pests. The only problem with having cold air masses move in is Rodents typically move in too. Broken Arrow Pest Control is changed somewhat by the weather. Enjoy the snow, what little we got and be happy we have spring near.
EnviroTech Exterminating of Broken Arrow has recently added new products to their line of pest control pesticides.
EnviroTech now offers Onslaught Microencapsulated Insecticide and Cyonara 9.7 Insecticide with Sigma Technology. Both products provide extended protection for ants, cockroaches, bed bugs, spiders, scorpions and a multitude of common household pests and insects.
"We are serious about our pest management program and our clients want the best treatment available. Anybody can quote a low price for pest control but consider what are you truly getting, an inferior product that has a short residual time. We use the latest products with longer residuals which provides better protection and a better value for your hard earned money. Anybody can offer a cheap price but what are you truly getting?" Billy Howard - Owner.
EnviroTech is competitive regarding price but is a step ahead with their service and product line which gives them an edge.
Both of these products bond better with the surfaces they make contact with and have a longer half life than what most of the competition uses. This provides the customer with a better residual and treatment that lasts longer than the industry average. "We could use lower end pest products but were not in the business of cutting corners. We provide the best pest control products and services in our region." Billy Howard - EnviroTech Exterminating.

Farmers time the application of IGRs with insect life cycles.
IGR stands for "insect growth regulator" and it is used in insecticides to prevent larval or juvenile insects from maturing into destructive pests. While technically not a toxin, IGRs cause larval development or molting to be arrested, and the insect will eventually die without maturing. IGRs are used for a variety of different insect pests in many types of formulations for different uses.
Insect progress through different stages of development. For insects to pass from the larval stage to a juvenile or adult stage, they must form a hard exoskeleton. This requires the production of chitin, a type of protein that makes up the exoskeleton. Chitin inhibitors disrupt the synthesis of chitin and prevent the insect from further development. Common chitin inhibitors include diflubenzuron, cyromazine, novaluron and buprofezin.
Hormonal disruptors are used to prevent insects from molting. The primary molting hormone, ecdysone, is targeted with this type of IGR. Juvenile hormone mimics cause premature molting and deformation of wings and reproductive parts, making the insects less likely to reproduce or become pests. Common juvenile hormone mimics are pyriproxyfen, kinoprene, tebufenozide and methoxyfenozide.
The primary molting hormone, ecdysone, is targeted with this type of IGR. When the normal signal for a pupa or larva to molt is blocked, it will not molt and the insect will die. Azadirachtin is an IGR that is chemically very similar to ecdysone and is used in most ecdysone-inhibiting IGRs.
Fleas, ticks, roaches and other indoor insect pests are controlled by IGRs. Photostable IGRs can be applied inside and around the outside of the house. Products containing methoprene are used to control fleas. Methoprene and fipronil in special formulations can be applied topically to dogs and cats. Products containing nylar are photostable and can be used indoors or outdoors against fleas and roaches. Hydropene is for indoor use only and is effective against roaches and other pantry pests such as beetles, weevils and moths.
Most IGRs are considered "reduced-risk" vs. insecticides that directly kill insects. IGRs are engineered to affect narrower ranges of pests and can be less toxic to pets, livestock, humans and other wildlife. Chitin inhibitors may be toxic to non-pest insect species such as predatory insects, as well as arthropods and possibly fish. Some IGRs are not photostable--they break down quickly in sunlight, so they are for indoor use only.
Timing
Applying IGRs at the right time makes them most efficient.
IGRs are best used early in the season when insects are developing from larval or pupal stages. They can also be used a few days after applying an insecticide to kill adult insects. Timing or additional excipients may be required to make IGRs most effective. Read manufacturer's instructions for proper use. IGRs are not "knockdown" insecticides. They require a period of time to be effective.

EnviroTech Exterminating has been having great success in controlling both Rodent mice and rats in our local Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby and Tulsa metro area.
Rodents, Mice and Rats are Disease Spreading Pests. They are likely to move to homes during all seasons. Any disturbance in their environment such as rain, cold weather, ground disturbance like home building, dirt being moved and so many other factors triggers these pests to move. They look for shelter, food, water and if you have a colony, or one nearby then it's likely that your home may become theirs.
Once settled in these pests can be a real nightmare. Finding their droppings in your cabinets, pantry, in your stove, in your closets and any place these varmints harbor. If you provide the food source, the water source it becomes a relationship like letting your old friend who won't get a job & won't leave. These pests bum off you and they contaminate your food sources. They urinate and leave feces in, on your stove, the same one you bake with, they leave their urine on your floor, on your bed, your children's bed and your counter tops.
Rodents are a serious pest problem and sure you can set traps, use over the counter baits but to really control a Rodent problem you need a professional pest control company such as EnviroTech Exterminating. We specialize in the control of Mice, Rats and other Rodents. We look for entry points, use the best baits available on the market, do exclusions to help keep infestations under control. Don't share your meals, your home with these little pests. Call EnviroTech Exterminating at (918) 282-7621 to get a treatment program set up today.
Tired of Being Bugged? How to Keep Winter Pests at Bay in and Around Your Home
by Michele Dawson
It seems that every winter while we're trying to stay warm and cozy, so are all sorts of bugs and rodents that creep into our houses and garages.
Why wouldn't they want to make a home for themselves in your home - after all, who (or what) wouldn't want to partake in the comfort your home offers?
But you probably have a different take on the situation. It's not a compliment that these things are trying to share your living space - it's a nuisance at best and unhealthy at worst.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, common diseases spread by insects and rodents include hantavirus, leptospirosis, rabies, tularemia, West Nile Virus, tapeworms, salmonella, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, strep, staph, polio, murine typhus, malaria, Lyme disease, dysentery, dengue, cholera and plague.
But never fear. If you know how to arm yourself you can likely handle the infestation, whether you do it yourself or hire professionals.
Animals
The National Pest Management Association , an association made up of pest control companies, lists mice, rats, squirrels, raccoons and opossums among the rodents that may try to infiltrate your home between October and February.
Signs include scampering or gnawing sounds late at night in the attic or behind walls, and droppings found in undisturbed areas of the house (pantries, attics, garages, under baseboards, and along walls).
These fuzzy creatures are destructive. They'll chew through packaged goods, cardboard boxes, walls near pipes and vents, and electrical wiring.
If you have a rodent problem, you're not alone. The NPMA says that 21 million households in the U.S. fight rodent infestations each year during the winter.
Common points of entry include pet doors, holes in walls, missing vent screens, openings around pipes and dryer duct vents ¾ even openings as small as a nickel or half dollar.
So what can you do to keep them out? The NPMA suggests sealing all holes of larger diameter than a pencil, sealing any cracks and voids, and making sure there's proper drainage at the foundation, including gutters or diverts which channel water away from your home.
Insects
According to the NPMA, common home-invader insects include cockroaches, termites, ants, flies, pantry pests, wasps, fleas, ticks, spiders and silverfish.
To prevent infestation, keep gutters free of debris, repair fascia and soffits, replace rotted or broken roof shingles, prune vegetation back from roof, caulk around windows and doors, replace weather stripping and repair loose mortar around basement foundation and windows, and make sure attic vents are in good condition.

Q: My wife works in a large hospital and witnessed their in-house pest control person do a bed bug inspection by simply kicking the bed frame in a room, and when no bed bugs ran out he declared it free-and-clear. In a room where he did find the bugs, he stated that certain equipment could be moved out of the room, because the bedbugs could not hide on it. Your thoughts?
A: This sounds like someone might not have their information all correct. Bed Bugs are a serious problem. In fact, one bed bugs are found in an environment (such as a hospital), the entire building is likely infested. Perhaps your wife could raise her concerns through the hospitals normal channels. Bed bugs not only can be found in beds, but also on equipment moving from room to room, with the female bedbugs depositing eggs as they do. These eggs are small and typically move about on clothing, beds, equipment or any luggage without notice. This is why the Bed Bug is spreading so rapidly and without any boundaries. Professional pest control treatment is needed in this situation.
If you have a need for an exterminator for pests such as bedbugs please feel free to contact EnviroTech Exterminating. We service Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby and Coweta, Oklahoma. Call (918) 282-7621 Today!
