Why Professional Mosquito Control For Your Jericho Yard Is A Good Idea
Nothing ruins an outdoor gathering quite like mosquitoes do. Here in Jericho, the summers bring in a swarm of these pests that do more than annoy you and cause bug bites - sometimes, they can even spread diseases to you and your family. Below are some reasons why professional control for mosquitoes is a worthwhile investment:
- Citronella candles only help to keep them at bay a little. It is not a fool-proof method.
- Bug netting only works if you are planning on being in one spot when outside, and it is impractical to try and surround your entire property with bug netting.
- Some studies show that wearing light-colored clothing can help lessen your appeal, but it still won’t keep all of them away from you.
At Pied Piper Pest Control, our technicians specialize in mosquito treatments, ensuring the existing infestation is eliminated and preventing more mosquitoes from showing up. You deserve to be able to enjoy your outdoor time this summer - contact us to book a yard treatment today!
Here's Why You Should Call The Pros About Rodents In Your Jericho Home
Unfortunately, rodents are one of the most common pests we deal with here. While it might be tempting to buy some mouse traps and call it a day, we highly recommend you call a professional for assistance with the rodents in your Jericho home. Below are some diseases you at risk for if rodents have invaded your home:
- Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCMV): All rodents are capable of spreading this disease. This can cause severe neurological problems in humans, and you can contract this by being exposed to rodent droppings, urine, saliva, or nesting materials.
- Salmonella: This is a common disease spread by all rodents. As these pests scurry across your counters or anywhere you store or prepare food, anyone who eats in your home can contract this disease. This is a severe food poisoning illness; symptoms include fever, stomach pain, vomiting, and diarrhea.
- Hantavirus: This illness spreads in rodent urine and when feces turn to dust, eventually spreading particles in the air. By breathing these pathogens in, you can contract this virus. Symptoms include fever, chills, and aches and pains. If left untreated, Hantavirus can cause severe shortness of breath and can progress to kidney failure.
In addition to the physical damage rodents can do to your property, rodents are capable of causing some pretty severe damage to human health (see: The Bubonic Plague). At Pied Piper Pest Control, our technicians have the tools and treatments needed to exterminate these pests without anyone getting ill safely. Let us help you today!
We take our responsibility to the environment seriously. We choose to use eco-friendly products when treating your home or business.

All The Ways Cockroaches In Jericho Are Harmful To Your Health
Cockroaches are on par with rodents when it comes to the level of damage they can do to your health. These disgusting vermin are known or suspected to spread nearly four-dozen different pathogens because they hang out in some horrifying haunts. The places roaches love to hang out include the rotting flesh of dead animals, feces, and garbage.
When they come from these gross places into your pristine kitchen, they drag all the pathogens picked up with them (not to mention that they have no compunction about pooping in your food stores and on your food prep surfaces). That means a cockroach infestation can give you all kinds of food-borne illnesses that can be severe and even potentially deadly.
Never fear, though, as we can defend you from these dangerous pests and many others – including spider crickets, termites, bed bugs, and many more – here at Pied Piper Pest Control!
The Ways You May Be Misinformed About The Bed Bugs In Jericho
Bed bugs are a far more common pest in Jericho than you might think, and that’s only one of the ways that you might be wrong about them. Many people think that bed bugs only appear in unhygienic places, but this is far from the truth. Because bed bugs are parasites, they hitchhike as their main mode of transportation. They will attach themselves to nearly any host and go for a free ride to a locale that promises them access to an ample food supply. This might mean that they end up in hotels or restaurants, or it might mean that they end up in someone’s home. Bed bugs are also able to easily spread from one property to another, so it’s very common for people who live in apartments to end up with bed bugs if they have a neighbor with an infestation.
Another way that people often misunderstand bed bugs is by thinking that they’re a serious health risk. While they do feed off of human blood, bed bugs are actually not associated with any serious health risks. Finally, most people assume that they can eliminate their bed bug infestations on their own, when that is far from the truth. Bed bugs come out only at night and usually live in hard-to-access areas, so most homeowners never see their entire infestation, which continues to grow, as bed bugs continue laying 500 eggs in their lifetime.

How To Spot Termite Problems On Your Jericho Property
Termites are some of the sneakiest yet most damaging pests that can inflict themselves on your Jericho property. Each year, termites are responsible for billions of dollars in total damage across the country, which includes crops, buildings, homes, and other assets. Even though termites are responsible for so much destruction, they are actually able to go undetected for prolonged periods of time. Here are some of the important signs to look for that might indicate termite troubles:
- Termite swarmers, which are winged reproductive members that leave their colony to start new ones
- Ceilings that sink
- Wood that is blistered or swollen
- Walls that sound hollow when you tap them
- The presence of mud tubes or mazes on walls or foundations
- Windows that you can’t close and doors that jam
- Scratching sounds from inside of walls
- Piles of frass, which is termite excrement that resembles sawdust
If you notice any of the previously mentioned signs on your property, the best thing to do is call the pros at Pied Piper Pest Control. We customize our services to your exact needs, whether that involves eliminating termites or preventing them. For more information on our termite control services in Jericho, call us today.
