With summer, holidays and vacations on everyone's minds the last thing that we want to think about is the West Nile Virus carried by mosquitoes.

True the weather has been a little sporadic and the rain has caused many of us to stay inside. But the weekend is coming…outdoor gatherings are being planned.

But what about your yard and the dangers it holds?

As the kids are playing and rolling in the grass they may be encountering ticks, fleas, mosquitoes, ants (the biting type), ground bees, and spiders. Seems pretty unsafe to me!

Yard Guard is a "green" outdoor treatment with natural plant oils which is safe for animals and children. It eliminates the pests or insects that invade your privacy but is safe for plants, flowers and the environment. With this program you can be assured that your summer plans stay safe and healthy.
 
Ask your technician about a Yard Guard Program and see how cost effective it really is or contact us.
 
It's Summer…take back your yard!

No time for Bugs….yuck!!!!

With thoughts of Spring and All it's Beauty

pest-library-montageEveryone is anxiously looking forward to warm weather, cherry blossoms and the beautiful flowers that bloom in Spring.

But, be aware of the fact that pests and termites are looking forward to warm weather as well.

Ants are now making their appearance while bed bugs and rodents are still at the top of the list.

Termite activity will become apparent in the weeks to come as we're mulching our flowerbeds.

It is not possible to have the beautiful landscaping we have without creating a haven for all types of occasional invaders and that is where PermaTreat's "exterior only" plans come in.

Don't wait until pests or termites ruin your "first barbeque of Spring". Act now and schedule your FREE INSPECTION.

Our technicians will treat mulch beds with a safe but effective combination of plant oils in a granular form, they will treat around pest access points like windows and doors with a similar formulation in liquid form and remove spider webs in shrubs and other locations around the home. Technicians will also turn over those splash blocks under gutter down spouts where odorous ants and pavement ants love to build colonies. At the same time we will be watching for wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets that might build nests around your home but taking care not to treat flowers so we do not destroy insects that pollinate the plants.

Bed Bugs-they’re not going away

Everywhere you look you see updates on bed bug infestations across the U.S.. Infestations have been found in high and low end residential areas, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, movie theatres, college dorms and public schools.

Bed bugs are elusive, persistent and increasingly pervasive and YES, there is a possibility that they can reach some of your personal belongings and within a few months your home could be fully infested.

Don't be embarrassed if you're concerned that you might have an infestation.  Make the call to your pest technician.  Let the technician perform the inspection and while he/she is there feel free to ask questions.

Bed bugs as not a seasonal pest.  Protect your family as well as your environment.
