Wasp Control 101: What Every Redwood City Homeowner Needs To Know

At Pacific Pest Management, you can trust us when we say that we know and understand that many of you don’t have to get up close and personal with wasp to see that it’s a wasp, or at the very least, a stinging insect. We get that, but aside from removing wasps and other pests from your property, we believe it’s essential and equally responsible as a homeowner to have a general understanding of the pests that may potentially infest and threaten your home family.

Here in Redwood City, paper wasps and yellow jackets are the wasps that will wreak havoc around your property.

Often, many people think that wasps and hornets are two separate species of insects when yellow jackets are a specific species of wasps. And though each has very similar characteristics, the yellow jacket and the paper wasp also have very distinctive features.

• Both insects have black and yellow bodies, but a paper wasp's bodies are more black with yellow markings.
• A yellow jacket's body size is ‘fatter’ in appearance, while paper wasps have narrower bodies with thin legs that hang down while in flight.
• They both can sting multiple times without dying. However, the yellow jacket’s sting is much more painful and venomous.
• The paper wasp's nest resembles that of an upside-down umbrella or open honeycomb. Yellow jackets’ nests are underground and have only a single opening.
• Both are social insects that will aggressively attack when you threaten their nest.

 As a homeowner, recognizing these characteristics and features of wasps is going to be beneficial in your prevention efforts. Now, we’re not saying to remove a wasps nest by any means; the ability to recognize the type of threat invading your property is going to give you a bit of comfort. With that knowledge, you’ll know what removal services you need as well as the preventive measures to take. Give us a call, and one of our wasp removal technicians will safely remove all wasps nests from your property. 

The Best Way To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs In Your Redwood City Home

As your top-rated San Mateo pest control experts, our immediate response to the question of what’s the best way to get rid of bed bugs is going to be with our bed bug removal services, of course. And we’re not just saying that because we want your business; we’re saying that from a health and safety standpoint.

Bed bugs are tiny, brownish parasitic bugs that need blood meals to survive. These pests only need three to ten minutes to become fully engorged on your blood and usually feed at night when their hosts are asleep.

Getting bitten from bed bugs have varying effects for different people. While some people do not react, some develop itchy red welts. In most cases, the symptoms of bed bug bites go away within two weeks, but if you excessively scratch, the welts can develop secondary infections.

One thing to note about bed bugs that will help recognize the signs is knowing their hiding places. Many people think that bed bugs only reside in mattresses and box springs, but they live anywhere human hosts exist. You can also find bed bugs in electrical sockets, baseboards, behind wall paintings, and the seams of chairs and couches.

Unless you know exactly where to look in your home to get rid of a bed bug infestation, your efforts will be completely worthless without the help of professionals. Call Pacific Pest Management today.
