• Fleas
  Adult fleas are wingless and only about 1/8 of an inch in length. A flea’s body is very flat, making it easy for them to fit through the smallest of spaces. They are generally black in color, but can also be a reddish-brown color.
• Cockroaches
  German cockroaches are a common urban pest found in Worcester, Providence, Shrewsbury, and throughout Rhode Island and New England. Not only are they very adaptable to different living situations, this type of roach is the most common cockroach species to be found in houses, apartments, restaurants and hotels.
• Silverfish
  Some people push off their pests problems because they assume that the pests will die off in a few weeks. But did you know that silverfish have a lifespan of 3 to 6 years? These pests can live up to a whole year without a meal! Want to learn how to get rid of these pests from your Maine home ? Click on our link to find out!
• Bees
  Honey bees are social insects that are a very important part of the eco-system throughout the world; they are responsible for pollinating over 100 crops in the U.S. alone. Honey bees make honey from the nectar of flowers and use it as their food source. A honey bee colony can survive for many years unlike other types of stinging insect colonies and because of this their colonies can grow very large. Honey bees create their nests in crevices and are often found in logs, trees, wall voids and in chimneys.
• Wasps
  Paper wasps are a type of wasp that feeds on the nectar and pollen of plants. They create their nests out of plant materials and saliva; and as their name suggests once built it looks like it is made out of paper. A paper wasp nest consists of multiple compartments that are not covered. The compartments are where they lay eggs and also where they raise their young. Their umbrella shaped nests are often found hanging under protective overhangs around doors and under roof eaves.
• Ticks
  Take back your outdoor space with our effective mosquito and tick control solutions. Enjoy peace of mind and outdoor activities without the nuisance and health risks posed by these pests.
• Earwigs
  Earwigs are generally an outdoor insect that live in moist dark areas like under mulch, logs and rocks. Earwigs are probably most known for the myth that is associated with them; the myth states that these insects crawl into human ears and burrow into the victim’s brain to lay their eggs. Luckily for us this is completely false.
• Mosquitoes
  By employing several diverse control measures together, our pest control professionals can reduce biting mosquito populations by 90% all season long! We also specialize in one-time mosquito treatments. If you have an outdoor wedding or other special outdoor event planned, Big Blue Bug Solutions offers a one-time intensive service prior to your event.
• Flies
  Sanitation is a big issue for commercial facilities and unfortunately, the build-up of grease, fats and other organic material in drains creates ideal breeding grounds for insects and leads to infestations of flies and other pests common in commercial facilities. The good news is that Big Blue Bug Solutions provides professional drain cleaning services that are sure to help your company combat flies, odors and sanitation issues within your facility.
• Centipedes
  Centipedes are very flat creatures and can be between 1/8 of an inch to over 6 inches long, depending on which exact species you are dealing with. They are generally yellowish to brown in color.
• Millipedes
  Millipedes are small arthropods, not insects. They have two legs per body segment. While their name means “thousand legs†, they do not have that many. They typically have between 80 and 400 legs.
• Beetles
  Powderpost beetles are a wood-boring insect. Adult powderpost beetles will lay their eggs on or just below the surface of unfinished food. After the eggs hatch they will damage the wood slowly overtime as the larvae chew narrow tunnels through the wood feeding on it and reducing it to a fine flour-like powder. When they have fully matured, the adults will then chew a hole at the surface of the wood that is about the diameter of a pinhead to exit it.
• Hornets
  In the New England region baldfaced hornets are a prevalent pest problem during the warmer months and are also referred to as white faced hornets. Regardless of what you call them, what's more interesting is that this stinging insect isn't actually a hornet but rather a type of wasp. They build paper nests up in trees and will very aggressively defend their nests against anyone or thing that they perceive as a threat.
• Yellowjackets
  Baldfaced hornets are larger than yellow jackets, the workers average about ¾ of an inch in length with the queens being a bit larger. Baldfaced hornets have a distinctive color pattern; they are black in color with a white head and 3 white strips on the back of their body.
• Moths
  Adult moths are 1/4 to 3/8 inches in length and are generally bi-colored, with half of the wings being a very light brown to cream color and the other half being dark, almost bronze colored. The larvae are about 1/2 inch long and are white with a brown head; however, they can be tinted pink or green, depending on what they have just eaten.
• Pantry Pests
  Most pantry pest infestations occur when already infested materials are brought home from the grocery store. They find their way into cereals, pasta, dried fruit, and other common products in search of food.
• Stinging Insects
  If you already have a cicada killer problem on your property it is best to call a professional pest exterminator to help you eliminate them and keep them away. Cicada killers usually have to be dealt with using pesticides which can be very dangerous if used improperly. Contact Big Blue Bug Solutions to find out how we can help you get rid of stinging insects on your property.
• Mites
  Clover mites are red in color and are no larger than the size of a pinhead. Clover mites have distinctive long front legs in comparison to the small size of their body.
• Aphids

Animal Control

• Bats
  Bats are a common wildlife problem that occurs throughout homes in Rhode Island and New England; they carry disease including rabies and therefore should be dealt with by bat control professionals. They look to homes to find a safe place roost in during the day, and then leave during the night to forage for food.
• Moles
  Moles are small insectivores that live almost exclusively underneath the ground. They live their life traveling through intricate tunnel systems that they create just under the ground’s surface and much deeper in the ground. In the more shallow tunnels they look for and feed on worms, insects, and plant roots and bulbs. Moles prefer to live a solitary life in their own tunnel system except during breeding season.
• Raccoons
• Wildlife
  Big Blue Bug Solutions can solve all of your nuisance wildlife problems with our top-notch service. Since each situation is unique, we create your program based on your specific needs. They range from live trapping to exclusions and from catch-and-release programs to simple habitat modification. All of our programs allow us to eradicate the problem, manage the damage and preserve natural resources.
• Opossums
  Opossums are the only species of marsupial that is native to the United States. The term “playing possum†is associated with this species because of their ability to fall into an involuntary shock-like state when frightened. This state of being makes these critters appear dead. They are a common nuisance wildlife problem for homeowners as they forage for food, water and shelter in homes and around properties.

  Ctenocephalides felis, is the most common flea in Rhode Island and throughout the US. They live on a host, feeding on blood and laying hundreds of eggs.
