It's spring time in Central Arkansas, and you've probably noticed more bugs crawling and flying around living spaces in and around your home. Bugs of all types have awakened from their Winter dormant phase to feed on new plant growth in your yard and to take advantage of the warmer temperatures.

Some things we are on the lookout for while spraying for bugs are wasps and bees in your siding and areas where your kids play. Wasps often make nests between your siding and walls around entrances and patios. Wasps are attracted to sweet odors of perfume, blooming flowers, and sweat on your children playing outdoors. If you are trying to enjoy the Spring temperatures on your porch, and are threatened by wasps flying around, we will put an end to their swarming reign of terror.

Spring is also a great time inspect areas around your home for water puddles where mosquito larvae may be present. We will do a thorough inspection for mosquito breeding grounds, and we will adjust the amount of bug spraying required based on your location and proximity to nearby woodlands and the amount of rainfall in your area.

Now is also a great time to install a Mosquito Misting system around the paremeter of your home or living area to eliminate the presence of mosquitos. We offer single bug spraying , monthly, and quarterly treatments options. Give us a call and tell us about the bug problems you are experiencing and we'll be happy to provide a solution.

Every now and then we come across news stories that are just too strange to pass up. “Rats!” is what one lady yelled as she was quote “attacked” by rodents in an Abbeville, Louisiana Wal-Mart, as reported by Fox News. The lady in this article has filed suit against Wal-Mart over a rodent attack.

We’ve all heard of the frivolous lawsuits against large corporations, such as the multi-million dollar lawsuit won against McDonalds when someone spilled hot coffee on themselves. Isn’t coffee supposed to be hot? But, do Nutria really attack humans?

I'm not saying whether or not this Rodent Attack story is frivolous or that it was totally unavoidable. Yet, business owners must aways be on guard of potentional hazards to their employees and cutomers, and this includes pest that can spread germs, terrorize, and yes, even "attack" customers.
