 If you've seen bugs scampering in your kitchen, bath, cupboards or drawers, chances are that your home is infested with uninvited visitors! For every pest you see, there are hundreds more hiding where you can't see them. Pests in and around your home do not indicate bad housekeeping. No matter how clean, no home is immune from pest infestations. Our beautiful climate provides growth opportunities for all plants and animals-including pests. All it takes is food, water and heat. The various pests which can invade your home can destroy your property, carry diseases, and inconvenience you. The destruction rodents, clothes moths, carpet beetles, silverfish and crickets can do is surprising. And the nuisance ants, earwigs and spiders create is all too obvious. In today's modern society, there is no reason for you to accept these pests as house guests.
