Broken Arrow Pest Control Services

Now that it seems as if the spring rains have subsided and summer is officially here it is more important to have a pest control service performed to keep pests such as the Black Widow Spider from gaining a foothold on your home or business. We all know how the summer gets in Oklahoma and how scarce water is during July and August. Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby, Oklahoma becomes the land of the Heat! Pests don't like Heat either.

During the heat of summer many outside pests will move into barns, sheds, garages or any other type of structure where they can escape the hot sunlight and find safety inside. Predator pests also seek out these same types of shaded environments. Spiders that have free entrance will invade the garage and seek easy prey, June Bugs and Crickets start to invade looking for shelter and water.

Those that water their yards will find numerous insect pests and arachnids foraging around in garages and near their structures as these pests invade needing water, shelter from the sun/heat and food. The best way to avoid these pests taking up shelter in your home is with preventative maintenance pest control treatments.

Pest Control and Pests in General

Broken Arrow Pest Control and Pests in General

When you think of the word pests, do you usually envision insects? These little critters are often the worthy recipients of the term, but pests can come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny termites to rascally raccoons, and even full grown telemarketers! Pests can be difficult to get rid of, but definitely not impossible. There are people solely dedicated to their eradication. You might call them vengeful, vermin vigilantes, but they could be your best friends! 

Pests can pose risks to the health of your family, cause physical damage to your home, destroy or spoil food, damage clothing or other fabrics, or just be a nuisance.

Most pests are specific to certain seasons, but of course, this varies, depending on where on the continent you live. 

Here is just a sampling.

Winter pests may include rodents that have found a warm place to nest for the winter in your home. They can cause serious damage and even require costly roof repairs. Besides chewing wires and shredding clothing and paper for nesting material, they leave a terrible mess and odour. In warmer climates, cockroaches find homes inviting.

Spring brings out the wasps and bees. Although we are all familiar with the beneficial role they play in pollination, they can administer a nasty sting, especially dangerous to those with allergic reactions to them. Lady bugs (such an innocent name!) can be pesky when found in the house.

Summer and fall bring out the fruit flies, which, in spite of scientific knowledge to the contrary, seem to be birthed by exposed fruit. Dirty, disease carrying flies, wood chewing termites, and any number of other insects round out the small pest varieties. Larger examples include garbage can loving racoons and skunks. If you have ever tried to trap and relocate these critters, you will appreciate those who dedicate their lives to controlling these specimens!

Fall brings out the huge mature spiders with their webs, visible only when the dew settles on them (quite beautiful for the photographer), or when unsuspecting you walks through one (quite funny for the videographer). The harvest in Canadian fields chases the mice indoors, which, upon discovery, become wonderful fodder for YouTube. More recently, lady bug lookalikes with many names (asian beetles, Japanese beetles, harlequin ladybirds) have infested homes in falls months as their population preps for winter.

Telemarketers cross all season boundaries; most people develop their own methods of disposing of them. If all else fails, and you can’t beat them, join them; it’s a decent living!

You don’t have to live with pesky invaders. Let the experts advise you or eliminate them for you.

Termite Inspection Reports, Home Inspections in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks and Bixby

In the process of buying a home? If so it's likely you will need an Oklahoma ODAFF1 Inspection Report completed for the lender. EnviroTech Exterminating offers Termite Reports or what's called Wood Infestation Reports for the local Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Bixby and Jenks metro area.

*** Why do I need a Wood Infestation Report when purchasing a home? Well, this is Oklahoma and we are considered a High Activity State when it comes to Termites and other Wood Destroying Organism's.

Termites Depicted

Termites eat away at the structure and do Billions in damages across the nation every year. This is a pest that does not just go away and conventional Pest Control will not solve the problem as the Termite Colony lives underground. It is important to the lender loaning the funds on a home to know to a certain point that the home is not completely eaten up to the ground by Termites.

If Termite activity is found or evidence of any Termite activity then a Termite Treatment or Control program will be called for.

*** Do Termite Companies alway's find Termites when they are infesting a home?  Absolutely not! Termites live subterranean or under ground. If the infestation is not to the point of finding physical evidence then it is possible to not find proof necessary to call for a Termite Treatment.

If you are buying a home that has been remodeled hidden damage could potentially be covered up. Not all Sellers are honest people and thousands of homes are sold each and every year where Termites are infesting the home but the seller has opted to replace sheetrock or other damaged items in an effort to potentially save money on the expense of a Termite Treatment. This does not mean all remodeled homes have Termites. Only a small fraction of homeowners selling fall into this category of covering up damages.

Here's an example of a Termite Inspection I personally did where the owner tried to cover damages:

I found small pieces of evidence of Termites in a Garage that had the entire inside wall re-sheetrocked. The homeowner painted the wall, did a very good job covering up the evidence but missed one small spot on the outer edge. When I asked about why a garage would need to be remodeled they claimed just for looks but the home had other places inside that could have been better served for a remodel. Things just didn't make sense. Good thing I found a Termite Tube and Frass by the garage door on a stud running up the wall that was slightly exposed.

This is what makes doing a Termite Inspection sometimes a difficult Inspection. Had the issue's not been found the buyers of that home would have purchased it and later found they had Termites. It's much better to have the owner of a home pay for the Termite Treatment while it's their home then to have the expense carried over to the buyer when the seller has hidden the damages.

*** Are Wood Infestation Reports costly?  Not typically, they vary in cost based on a few things. The size of the home being one, is the home a slab foundation or a crawl space, location or is the home local.

Crawl Space homes typically will cost more as the inspector has to crawl under the home and inspect.

If Termites are found or evidence of Termite who treats for them? You are free to chose whomever you want to treat for Termites. We however do offer excellent treatment options for Termites and would like you consideration.

*** What about Wood Rot?  WoodRot is optional and is a separate inspection report than the ODAFF1.

We highly suggest that anybody purchasing a home have the home not only inspected for Termites but also for WoodRot. A separate graph is made depicting the wood rot damages on the home and this is attached to the ODAFF1 Report. This graph can be used for having repairs done that you and/or your Realtor is including with the TRR Report otherwise known as the Treatments, Repairs and Replacements page of your purchase contract.

Mosquitoes are a serious problem for all residents of the Tulsa area. These pests make being outside a nightmare. The EnviroTech Exterminating Mosquito Control Program is designed to help minimize the populations of mosquitoes breeding in your yard. Although mosquitoes are flying pests and cannot be eliminated, populations can be reduced.

There are steps you can take as the homeowner or business owner to help minimize the mosquitoes breading in your area. Of course you want to minimize all standing water as the number one item. Mosquitoes lay eggs in standing water and usually where a mosquito problem exists a standing water issue is near.

EnviroTech Exterminating will provide monthly service during the seasons in which mosquitoes are a problem. This service is a separate service from all other pest control services. We do not Guarantee to eliminate mosquito populations. Controlling them is the goal as complete eradication is not possible.

Mosquitoes are vectors of numerous disease and have been responsible for numerous plagues and outbreaks of disease as long as man has been on the planet. Controlling these pests helps to minimize or reduce the risks of these pests spreading pathogens. West Nile Virus is one of the most well known problems during mosquito season. To help reduce the chances of getting West Nile stay inside in the evenings when mosquitoes are active, minimize breeding sites the mosquito lays eggs in, have a mosquito program in place to reduce the populations living in your yard.

Termite Control

Termite Control and Treatment Options

Termites swarms are now in full swing here locally. The control of these pests is required when an infestation is discovered in order to prevent further structural damage. Termite Control can be done with liquid Termiticide or with bait stations. My personal preference is the liquid termiticide treatment and in this blog my goal is to explain why.

First, bait stations are expensive to install and require constant monitoring that is also expensive. The only reason I ever offer a bait station plan over a liquid termiticide is when the property itself just simply cannot be treated properly due to structural issues or perhaps water near. Bait Station Systems require the termite company that installs the system to follow-up regularly costing the customer far more than a liquid treatment ever costs.

Products available today for liquid perimeter treatments are excellent in that they work on a transfer effect. Once the Termiticide is in the ground around the perimeter monitoring appointments becomes a thing of the past. Numerous products exist that offer a transfer effect but one stands out. Termidor is the product we recommend when it comes to the treatment of termites. There are many reason why but we will save that for another post on this blog.

The Tulsa area is infested with termites. Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Coweta and the metro area are said to have up to 23 termite colonies per acre. This is a huge number. We see on a regular basis what termites can do and the damages they are capable of. Treatment is absolutely required but like many customers have asked in the past, do you prefer liquid treatment or baits?

Termites, Termite Control, and Termite Treatment

In this blog we will discuss Termites and the treatment options available. Being a locally owned pest control company in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma we see our fair share of Termites and the damages they are capable of doing. Most readers of this blog probably don't care much about learning all about termites. We understand that in most cases the readers of this simply want to find information in order to get a Termite Infestation under control. If you are in need of a Termite Treatment  or Estimate please feel free to call us at (918) 282-7621 and will be happy to assist. If you are interested in more information on Termites then please read on. We have taken information from Wikipedia in order to provide the most accurate information available on termites online. Treatment options are also discussed below.

Taken from Wikipedia: 
Termites are a group of eusocial insects that, until recently, were classified at the taxonomic rank of order Isoptera (see taxonomy below), but are now accepted as the epifamily Termitoidae, of the cockroach order Blattodea. While termites are commonly known, especially in Australia, as "white ants", they are only distantly related to the ants.
Like ants, and some bees and wasps—which are all placed in the separate order Hymenoptera—termites divide labor among castes, produce overlapping generations and take care of young collectively. Termites mostly feed on dead plant material, generally in the form of wood, leaf litter, soil, or animal dung, and about 10% of the estimated 4,000 species (about 2,600 taxonomically known) are economically significant as pests that can cause serious structural damage to buildings, crops or plantation forests. Termites are major detritivores, particularly in the subtropical and tropical regions, and their recycling of wood and other plant matter is of considerable ecological importance.
As eusocial insects, termites live in colonies that, at maturity, number from several hundred to several million individuals. Colonies use decentralised, self-organised systems of activity guided by swarm intelligence which exploit food sources and environments unavailable to any single insect acting alone. A typical colony contains nymphs (semimature young), workers, soldiers, and reproductive individuals of both sexes, sometimes containing several egg-laying queens.

About Termite Treatments Available:
Being that termites are social creatures and rely on each other to feed the colony Science has taken full advantage of this social behavior. Years ago the products available killed the termites on contact but this didn't take care of the colony that was already infesting an area of the home. Since the products killed all termites that come in contact with it the termites didn't make it back to the colony and many infestations remained infestations. Other products were simply termite repellants that made a barrier around the home locking in termites already present while keeping out termites that may be foraging in the dirt through the yard.

Current products work in a much more efficient manner. Termidor which is used by many pest control firms is one of the top rated products on the market. This product doesn't kill termites immediately. If allows time for the worker termites to move to and from the colony infesting all the termites that they come in contact with. This is called a Transfer Effect and takes full advantage of the termites social behavior to deal with the infestation. Other products like this are available but tend to have a shorter life span. Termidor is the name trusted most when it comes to Termite Control.

Baits, In many circumstances a combination of a product such as Termidor and Advance Bait System. In some circumstances where the structure may have water around it or other issues that prevent a full Termidor Treatment then a bait system may be used. In some cases customers want the bait stations, system rather than a perimeter treatment. We won't go into all the reasons why but just know it's a choice and one available. They work but sometimes do require more time than a traditional termite treatment with a product such as Termidor. Since the stations are located in the yard, around the structure the termites must first forage to find the stations before the product can start to work on an infestation. Once found they do work on a transfer effect much like the other products out today.

Now that you understand some of the products available keep in mind that you are protecting your most valuable asset. The home is typically the largest purchase you ever make and when choosing a termite control program as well as company to provide the service you need to consider not all products used are high quality and not all companies in the local Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby area provide the same level of service quality. Our termite treatments are done to the products label specifications to provide you years of termite protection. You can rely on EnviroTech Exterminating for all your pest control needs.
