Q: Should I sleep with bed bugs?

• <div><p>While it may seem counterintuitive to continue sleeping in a room with bed bugs, it&rsquo;s the best option to avoid spreading the infestation to other rooms, homes, or surfaces. In the nights before your bed bug removal professional arrives, continue sleeping in the same bed, but wear as much protective clothing as possible, such as long pants, long socks, and long-sleeve shirts. That way, you&rsquo;ll limit the number of bites during the night.</p></div>

Q: What type of damage do pests cause?

• <div><p>The type and amount of damage pests can cause to your home depends on the type of pest. Some pests, like rodents, often chew through wiring and can cause extensive damage to electrical systems, HVAC systems, walls, and insulation. Additionally, the pest&rsquo;s waste presents a potential health hazard if it contaminates food or water. Other pests, such as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-repair-termite-damage-your-home.htm">termites</a>, chew through floors, walls, and furniture, causing thousands of dollars in damage and making for costly repairs. </p></div>

Q: How long before German cockroaches are gone for good?

• <div><p>For a minor infestation, you can expect to clear up a German cockroach problem in about two weeks. That&rsquo;s usually enough time to confirm that they don&rsquo;t have additional hiding spots and aren&rsquo;t continuing to encroach from an outside source. If you have a major infestation and use the services of a pest control company, it can take several weeks and multiple visits to fully clear your home, up to a couple of months.</p></div>

Q: Will bees go away on their own?

• <div><p>In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it&rsquo;s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can&rsquo;t count on the bees leaving naturally. It&rsquo;s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.</p></div>

Q: How do I get rid of small animals in my attic?

• <div><p>Set live traps or install a one-way door to evict squirrels, rodents, and other animals from your attic. Once they&rsquo;re out, seal any entry points to prevent the animals from returning. If you&rsquo;re dealing with an infestation, call a pro. </p></div>

Family owned and operated full service pest control and extermination services.

"I live in an apartment and my property management company contracted with Superior for pest control. I and several other residents have been dealing with a cockroach infestation for several months now. During the last treatment visit, the technician was rude and unprofessional in his conduct towards me. When I said that not all the roaches were being killed (this was after two months of treatment), he lashed out and told me, "I'm trying to educate you and you're not listening." He also said that I should not expect all the roaches to be killed because he was just trying to keep them under control, not get rid of all of them. He said, "That's why it's called pest control." I expect exterminators to resolve a pest issue completely, not just make the situation a little better. If this had happened in a home that I owned, I would have kicked this man out immediately and found a different company."
