DIFFERENT TYPES OF PESTS
Homeowners around the country dread the appearance of cockroaches. But, many homeowners don’t know how destructive and resilient these pests can be. Cockroaches are able to fit through a gap as small as a quarter of their body height by flattening their flexible exoskeletons and moving their legs to the side.
​
are omnivorous scavengers that will consume any organic food available to them. When roaches move into an area, they will first consume the same types of foods that humans would. Sweets, starches and animal proteins are a roach’s favorite foods. They also like greasy food, cheese or anything that’s moldy or fermented. The American cockroach has shown a marked attraction to alcoholic beverages, especially beer.
If these foods are not available, roaches will turn to other forms of starch, including book bindings, paper, wallpaper paste and the glue on the back of stamps. For protein, cockroaches view dead insects, animal skin (e.g., the soft inside of leather) and even human hair and fingernails as viable food sources. They will also eat each other if food becomes scarce enough.
Flies are a common unwanted house guest: Not merely annoying to deal with, but also capable of spreading diseases and infections, making them less than desirable company. Flies in the home can be frustrating, especially in the kitchen where you want everything particularly clean, hygienic, and neat. These pests often lay eggs on meat and other food items and hover over kitchen surfaces.
How to deal with an infestation of flies
Unfortunately, sometimes we may have to deal with major fly infestations. If you are facing an infestation, the first thing you need to do is clean your house thoroughly with a disinfectant like bleach (such as Domestos). Vacuum and wash all surfaces with a disinfectant spray or wipes to get rid of any fly eggs, and make sure to clean behind furniture and everywhere that might not be easily accessible at first – that’s where flies like to hide.
Mosquitoes are major pests, it’s true, but not all mosquitoes are bloodsuckers. In fact, only female mosquitoes bite, causing those red itchy welts on your skin. They need the nutrition in your blood to develop their eggs.
There’s no doubt that the buzzing sound that you hear from mosquitoes can be very annoying for most of us. More than that, mosquito bites can cause reddish bumps that appear soon after you have got bitten by them, which led to constant scratching because of the itchy sensation.
​
In Indonesia, mosquito-borne disease has served as a major health problem for years. This thing happens due to the tropical climate conditions in Indonesia which supports the breeding of many types of mosquitoes.
Apart from being known as aggressive bloodsuckers, this pesky insect is actually quite interesting enough for us to find out its other side.
BEES
What do you think of when someone is talking about a bee? Do you think of their tasty product, honey? Do you think of them pollinating your flowers in the summer? Many facts that you know about bees might actually be misconceptions.
Actually, less than 4 percent of all bees (less than 800 species) actually make honey. The most well-known bee—the honey bee, Apis mellifera—does make beeswax and honey. This bee species is used commercially to pollinate many commercial agricultural crops and is also reared for honey in the beekeeping industry. The honey bee is not representative of the diversity of bee species as a whole. Therefore, the remaining 19,000-plus species make no honey at all.
WASPS
Of all pests, the ones that sting are often the most feared by humans. Wasps are no exception. Here is what homeowners should know about these insects and a look at the four types of wasps commonly found in Indiana.
What Good Are Wasps?
You can easily assume that insects that cause disease to, bite, or sting humans are bad and have no redeemable qualities, but most insects have a use. People forgive bees as they are known pollinators, but what about wasps?
Most people aren't aware that many wasp species are omnivores. Adult wasps don’t just look for nectar and sugar. Instead, they often look for insects to feed their babies.
Without wasps, your yard might have too many insects and arachnids. Wasps can also be beneficial to gardeners and the agricultural industry. And while pollination may not be their primary task, they still serve as pollinators as they go about their business.
Almost all spiders are harmless and usually remain hidden. They do not seek out and bite humans. In fact, most cannot penetrate our skin with their fangs. A few are considered venomous to humans and care must be taken to avoid being bitten.
Spiders mostly eat insects, which helps control their populations. Their webs – especially big, intricate ones like our orb weavers’ – are particularly adept at catching small flying insects such as mosquitos. Worldwide, mosquito-borne viruses kill more humans than any other animal.
​
Spiders are not aggressive and will either try to run away from people, or defend themselves. Many are exceptional at hiding or camouflaging themselves, in the hope we don’t even see them.
Wrap-around spiders (Dolophones species) flatten themselves around branches to hide during the day, then come out to build webs at night.
Signs of termite infestation include the mud tubes they construct to move from the soil to the wood and swarming of winged adults in the spring and fall. Darkening or blistering of wooden structures is another indication of an infestation; wood in damaged areas is extremely soft and easily punctured with a screwdriver
Subterranean termites are social insects that live in colonies. A colony has three castes: a) reproductives (king and queen), b) soldiers and c) workers.
Colonies are initiated in spring and fall when swarms of winged male and female reproductive leave a nest. Termites shed their wings, pair off and build a nest near a source of wood and moisture in the soil. After mating, the female (queen) begins laying eggs. The eggs hatch after a few weeks or months (depending upon species), and the emerging nymphs mature over a period of 2-6 months. Most become workers or soldiers. When the nest reaches its maximum population, some of the nymphs develop into winged reproductive, and the cycle is repeated.
Having rodents get into your house is probably not on your list of things you want to happen this winter. Unfortunately, fall and winter are the seasons that you’re most likely to end up with a rodent infestation. With cold temperatures come scarce food and water supplies, forcing rodents to look for warm shelter and a steady supply of resources nearby. All three of these essential needs can be satisfied in one location: Your home.
If you end up with rodents in your house, they’ve found what they’re looking for and won’t be inclined to leave on their own. Instead, you’ll have to do something to get rid of them if you ever want to save yourself from the damages and dangers they cause.
​
Even if they didn’t cause problems, most people would agree that they don’t want rodents moving into their homes. Unfortunately though, if rodents get into your house, they will cause problems, most of which are quite serious.
For starters, they’ll want to build a nest, but will need to acquire materials in order to do so. They’ll find these materials throughout your house by nibbling away pieces of clothing and other fabrics, tearing out sections of insulation, and shredding parts of cardboard boxes.
Although snakes easily sense vibrations, especially when someone approaches a snake, they quickly get used to most vibrations and do not necessarily avoid drilling and construction sites. Some snakes live right next to busy highways where heavy vehicles cause lots of vibrations. Vibrating devices do not keep snakes away and are a waste of money.
So how do you keep snakes out of your garden? It’s quite simple – keep your garden clean, remove building rubble, piles of rocks and other suitable places where snakes can hide.
Especially sheets of asbestos or corrugated tin. And bear in mind that snakes are attracted by rodents and frogs – a water feature will attract frogs and they, in turn, may well attract snakes.
There is one more solution in high-risk areas – put shade cloth onto your perimeter fence – about 1 m high and dug into the ground (at least 30 cm) and make sure that the entrance gate areas are also well sealed. Such a barrier will prevent well over 90% of snakes from entering your properties. We have erected such barriers at mines and around farm houses and with excellent results.
