Pest Control, Termite Control, Mosquito Misting Systems. Best Service, Great Value. At Bug Ninja Pest Control, we come to work to help families feel safe and businesses run smoothly. That may seem out of place, but bugs can really freak people out. A restaurant with a ants or a home with a mouse can truly ruin the day. We actually started our pest control company in Baton Rouge, circa 2012. After a couple different experienced partners, we decided it best to stick to a simple vision of focusing on clients, knowledge, and safety.

I am a Retired Baton Rouge Firefighter (27yrs), sole business owner (In Pest Control Industry for over 30 yrs), meaning I am the one who will be servicing your home or business to insure YOU are getting the propper Pest Prevention Treatment possible. Billing is usually paid upon serviceing for homeowners, businesses that require a billing period will be left with a reciept of service to be paid within 30 days of the service date. I do establish a personal rapport with my customers, as to work with them on delaying a payment on an occasional basis if necessary.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Some stores sell smoke bombs to drive animals out of spaces, but we don’t recommend you use them, especially in an attic. The smoke can be toxic to humans or pets that may accidentally inhale it. Meanwhile, critters can easily escape the smoke by temporarily leaving the attic, only to return via their usual entry points after the smoke clears.

While taking a shower can help wash away fleas and their dirt from your body, it may not completely get rid of all of them. However, if you wash your clothes and bedding in hot water and dry them on the highest heat recommended for the fabric, it can further reduce the possibility of an infestation. However, even if just a few are left, they can reproduce and take over again, so it’s best to take additional measures and call a flea exterminator to ensure they’re gone for good.

It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:

  • Sounds: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.

  • Droppings: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat’s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you’re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you’re seeing in your attic.

When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.

Stink bugs don't build nests, but they do like to hang around out of sight. They typically hide in cracks, crevices, and tight spaces within buildings, especially during the colder months. They are often found in attics, crawl spaces, and along walls or ceilings. To find them, give these areas a detailed inspection, particularly around windows, doors, and vents.

The houseplants that are prone to spider mites include English ivy, palms, philodendrons, calathea, and alocasia. Although spider mites can infest any indoor plant, they are more commonly drawn to the types listed above. If you have these in your home, pay special attention to them to help catch signs of infestation early.
