Protecting your home from Mosquitoes has never been more important for the greater Kansas City region. Several confirmed cases of West Nile Virus in the region have caused many to be concerned about mosquitoes In recent years and prompted a desire to figure out a remedy that would be child and pet friendly. Oftentimes eliminating the possibility of being bitten by mosquitoes requires repellents and various chemicals that need to be applied to your skin and clothing prior to being outdoors. Utilizing such methods is not desirable among many individuals who try to avoid chemicals and the harmful after effects of aerosol chemical repellents.

Growing up in Missouri, the only time I heard the word Bedbug was in reference to an overused bed time joke. “Don’t let the bedbugs bite” has become all too serious a phrase for me after my current 13 years’ experience as a professional exterminator. Bedbugs are truly a fascinating little parasite that have caused many problems for humans for over 2000 years. The earliest known reports of bedbugs come from Ancient Greek records. Over time, they have moved through the Middle East, Asia, Europe and eventually to America. Bedbugs, being parasitic insects that feed exclusively on blood, prefer humans as their host. Generally speaking, bedbugs are nocturnal and feed on their host at night. They use a saw-like method with their stylet mandibles to cut through skin and get their fill of blood, with an average feeding lasting anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes. Unbelievably, as they begin the process of sawing through human skin, their saliva injects anticoagulants and painkillers which enable them to feed on their host without the host being aware.

The professional pest control industry is well equipped to handle a wide array of issues that home owners, business owners and consumers in general through life tend to deal with. Issues such as termite, spider, ant, mosquito, bed bug, roach & rodent infestations just to name a few. When you own a home, rent a home, live in an apartment complex or have a business structure, you can be certain that eventually various pests will attempt to take ownership of your space. This is usually never a pleasant time for the individual dealing with the particular pest issue at hand. Pest professionals all across the United States have various methods and systems utilized to give their customers peace of mind in whatever living / work environment they are in. On a daily basis, here at KC Pest Experts, we help wade our customers through these not so pleasant times, so they can enjoy and feel safe in their living / work environments. If there is one thing I have noticed through the years, serving hundreds upon hundreds of amazing customers, preventative maintenance is the most effective way to keep pest environments controlled. Many companies have different skill sets and methods to address preventative maintenance. One of the most popular methods for a residential home is quarterly pest control service. Every 3 months, a professional technician will service the exterior of a structure, applying products that are safe for children and pets, but are strategically applied to keep all the targeted pests at bay. Different types of structures require different preventative programs depending on if it is a food establishment facility or residential setting etc. Educate yourself about preventative pest control maintenance and research a company before you decide to do business with them. We have learned through the years it is cost effective to control the pests, before they control you. Don’t procrastinate calling a company like ours to prevent pests from becoming an issue. You won’t regret it!

As I’m sitting here thinking about pest control and educating all of our readers, I am in literal shock that it’s already Spring time 2024. The Kansas City Metro is a very interesting environment concerning pests and the severity levels of certain bugs and arachnids. In addition to being surrounded by hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland in the region, large water ways and cities with tens of thousands of residents, we also get a fairly equal dose of all 4 seasons with typically high humidity levels. When you combine these factors while discussing pest populations and heavy infestations of certain types of bugs / spiders, all of these things play a huge role. It is very interesting when we meet customers who move to the Kansas City area from other parts of the country and we learn the differences of our region vs. their prior residence. For instance, recently we met a client from Arizona originally and they were in shock they could walk through their yard barefoot without having to worry about scorpions. While there are some pests we thankfully do not have to worry about, like scorpions, there are others that are very dominant in our region. Two pests that come to mind that seem to be a problem every month out of the year in the Kansas City region are Brown Recluse spiders and Subterranean Termites. As we are thinking about summer and weather transitions etc, there are multiple other pests in the region that will flare up depending on the season we are in. Having your home on a routine pest control maintenance program is the best way to ensure that you can keep the seasonal pests at bay – while also continually attacking the regular pests that are always an issue like the recluse and others. If you have any questions about routine pest control maintenance, don’t hesitate to call our office and speak to one of our experts for a free consultation.
