Insects and Spiders

• Ants
  Odorous House Ants (Tapinoma sessile) are small, dark brown ants. They are often referred to as “sugar ants” due to their fondness for sweet foods. They are found outdoors nesting beneath rocks, under logs and landscape timbers, under mulch, or just about anything lying on the ground.
• Spiders
  All spiders are beneficial because they eat pest insects. Most spiders are relatively harmless and rarely come in contact with people. However, homeowners usually dislike their presence in and around homes because of the webs they leave, their “creepy” appearance, and a few are poisonous to people.
• Termites
  Carpenter ants are a threat to people because they make nests in and around our homes. Carpenter ants don’t eat wood like termites do. Instead, they make extensive galleries in the wood to live in and raise their brood. Ant activity is typically greatest between dusk and dawn.
• Fleas
  Free call-back service between visits if needed. At just $100 per quarter, our quarterly service package gives you an excellent service at reasonable prices.
• Silverfish
  Silverfish are silver insects with three long tails protruding from the end of their abdomen. They damage fabrics and eat dried foods and glue. They can be found all over the home, but especially in warm, moist areas.
• Bees
  After successfully treating bees from your property, our quarterly service will prevent pests of all kind from ever occupying your home or its surroundings. Our quarterly service includes...
• Wasps
  Wasps tend to be very protective of their nests and will defend against invaders with painful stings. Most wasp colonies die in the winter, with only fertilized queens living over the winter to start a new colony next year.
• Ticks
• Crickets
• Earwigs
  Earwigs are dark reddish-brown with large forceps on the end of the abdomen, which look intimidating, but actually pose no threat to humans. They can be found all over homes, particularly in cracks and crevices near or on the ground. Earwigs are active primarily at night and will eat just about anything.
• Centipedes
  Centipedes are flat and long, with one pair of legs on each of up to 100 segments. Centipedes usually live outdoors beneath damp accumulations of leaves, stones, and boards. They occasionally find their way into homes, where they hide in moist basements, damp closets and bathrooms. They eat insects and spiders, and some live as long as six years. Some centipedes are poisonous, but those in our area are considered harmless.
• Millipedes
  Carpenter ant diet naturally consists of aphid honeydew, tree sap, small insects, spiders, and millipedes. But our household spills, crumbs, and pet food are also very attractive food items.
• Beetles
  Ground beetles are relatively large, black beetles commonly found under litter and debris around the outside of homes. They also occur in crawl spaces of homes and in basements. They are considered beneficial because they eat other insects, however their size causes alarm in many homeowners when they occasionally enter homes.
• Hornets
• Yellowjackets
  Yellow jackets can sting repeatedly and become very aggressive when defending their nest. Their sting is painful and humans can develop an allergy to their venom, making any later sting possibly life-threatening.
• Stinging Insects
• Mites
• Aphids
• Pill Bugs
  Our quarterly pest control service is a protective treatment applied to the exterior of a home to keep insect pests from entering. It controls carpenter ants, spiders, fleas, ground beetles, small ants, earwigs, ticks, mites, crickets, silverfish, millipedes, carpet beetles, sowbugs and pill bugs. If clients ever have problems with rats, mice, bees or wasps, control of these pests are included in this preventative program.
• Sow Bugs
  Pillbugs and sowbugs are closely related to each other. They are up to ¾ inch long, oval shaped, and composed of many hard overlapping plates with seven pairs of legs. Only pillbugs are able to roll up into a ball. They prefer moist locations so are usually found under objects on damp ground, but often invade basements and first floors of houses. They eat decaying vegetable matter.

Rodent Control

• Rodents
  While these rodents are present around our homes throughout the year, unwanted rodent activities often become a problem in the fall and winter when they enter homes seeking warmth.
• Mice
  Our service is completely eco-friendly. The products and techniques implemented are 100% non-toxic to humans and pets. Excel Pest Control’s trained technicians will inspect your house for rodent issues thoroughly and strategically use green techniques to help you get rid of them. After the rodent infestation is taken care of, our experts will brief you on how to keep rats and mice away.
• Rats
  Diseases spread or carried by rodents include Hantavirus, Haverhill fever, Leptospirosis, Salmonellosis, and Plague. Fleas carrying plague have been taken from trapped rats in Tacoma as recently as the mid-1970s.
