What winter pests call O’Fallon, IL their home?

Watch out for these pests this winter!

Finding a pest indoors is a nightmare scenario for some. Furthermore, some people believe that during winter, they’re safe from pests. However, this is not true. Some pests even prefer the winter months indoors because they don’t hibernate like some insect species. Unfortunately, you still may need pest treatments, even when there’s snow on the ground. Take a look at the following pests that could still be active in this area, even after the last leaf falls!

Rodents

Two pests that love to take refuge inside of warm homes are mice and rats. Rodents have long, flexible bodies that can fit underneath doors, in between walls, in your HVAC system and almost anywhere else. Furthermore, they sneak out at night to feed on crumbs and other food they can get to. Fortunately, you can prevent mice and rats by cleaning up after yourself – give them nothing to eat and nowhere to stay!

Roaches

The roach is another insect that you may find seeking a warm, dry area inside of your home. There are many species of roaches, but not all of them like the same conditions. You may find roaches in your pantry, bathroom, around your drains and other places. Call a pest professional if you have an infestation.

Bed Bugs

Considering they live most of their lives on the inside of homes, bed bugs can thrive in winter conditions. Additionally, you may carry them from a hotel to your home without ever even noticing it. Make sure to check your bed and hotel room carefully for bed bugs, and make sure you get any problems taken care of right away!

Spiders

Spiders love to spend the winter in attics and basements where they can get away from the cold, damp conditions. This means be careful when sticking your nose into dark, hidden places where spiders like to hang out. You may get more than you bargained for!

Does the “Starve ’em out” Approach Work for Cockroaches in Collinsville, IL?

cockroaches collinsville il

Few things make homeowners squirm like seeing cockroaches scurry away when a light is turned on, or a drawer is open. If you see roaches, then you want them gone, and you want them gone fast. It’s a myth that only messy homes have cockroaches; the truth is that any home can have a cockroach infestation at any time. Unfortunately, cockroaches are extremely hardy and adaptable, making them an especially frustrating pest to get rid of. If you own a home or business in Collinsville, IL, Imel Pest Control is here to help you get rid of cockroaches once and for all.

Starve ’em Out?

In theory, it makes sense that if the cockroaches don’t have access to food, they’ll die or go somewhere else. There’s a problem with that, though: cockroaches are quite liberal in their definition of “food.” Yes, they’ll enjoy snacking on pet or people food that is left out (or even food that is hidden away in cupboards and pantries). However, if they don’t have access to that, they’re more than happy to munch away on baseboards, trash, glue, and soap. For this reason, it’s impossible to take the “starve ’em out” approach.

Why Do-It-Yourself Methods Don’t Always Work

Cockroaches are masters at hiding, and their eggs are naturally protected from over-the-counter insecticides. Roaches breed and multiply very quickly, so even if you manage to kill off the adult roaches, you’ll have an ongoing problem if the eggs aren’t destroyed. Getting rid of cockroaches requires specialized training and knowledge, along with tools and equipment; otherwise, you’ll waste a lot of money while fighting a losing battle.

Contact Imel Pest Control for Your Roach Infestation

While the internet abounds with do-it-yourself approaches to get rid of cockroach infestation, the truth is that roaches are a hardy bunch and are notoriously difficult to eradicate in your home. Fortunately, the experts at Imel Pest Control have the training and tools to help you enjoy a roach-free home in record time. In addition to providing effective and pet- and kid-safe treatment, we schedule follow-up appointments two weeks after treatment to ensure that your pests are gone, and you are satisfied. Give us a call today for a free, no-obligation inspection.
