The BBC ran a story in early April about a homeowner who called a local pest controller after realising he had a bee problem. A thorough inspection revealed a 1.2 cubic metre hive housing an estimat 10,000 honeybees. It took the pest controller about six hours to relocate them to a new home.

Should you ever find yourself in a similar situation, there’s no need to panic. Honeybees are harmless for the most part. If you don’t bother them, they won’t bother you. We know there’s little comfort in that when you’re seeing thousands of bees swarming around your home. But know this, we can relocate them safely with no harm to either you or the bees.

Large Hives in a Home

It is the bees’ natural instinct to reproduce and grow their hives. As such, hearing the buzzing of activity in the spring is good news. It means the majority of the bees have survived the winter and are now ready to grow and expand their territory.

When large hives are found inside homes, it means that the bees have found a warm and safe place to set up house. The larger the hive, the more accommodating the house is. But again, there’s no need to panic. Those bees can be relocated while the house is buttoned up to prevent new hives in the future.

When Bees Swarm

We weren’t surprised by the BBC article inasmuch as this is the time of year when honeybee activity really starts to pick up. Over the next several weeks we should be receiving increased calls for dealing with swarms. Honeybees typically swarm in late spring and early summer as they search for new homes.

It’s easy to panic at the site of a swarm. What you might not know is that swarming occurs when bees in search of a new home need to take a rest. If you just leave them alone, they will eventually feel energized enough to get up and keep moving.

Why We Relocate Bees

Unlike a wasp removal procedure that may involve destroying an active nest, it’s in the best interests of honeybees to simply relocate them. There is no need to destroy their hives given that relocation is so easy. The question you might be asking is why we go to all the trouble of relocating.

The answer is found in dwindling honeybee populations around the world. Over the last decade or so, we have lost a lot of honeybees for reasons we can only begin to speculate about. Regardless of those reasons, we cannot afford to lose any more. So it’s better for us to relocate hives than destroy them.

As experts at pest control in Berkshire, we are standing by to handle any bee and wasp problems you might have in the coming weeks. In the event honeybees have made a home of your home, call us and allow us to come out and relocate them.

Ants come in many varieties, none of which you want in your home. Pavement ants, also known as Tetramorium caespitum, are a very common form of ants. They take their name from the most common place they’re seen – on sidewalks and pavements.

Pavement ants are very small, about 3 millimeters long. They’re dark brown to black in color with six legs and antennae. You will most commonly notice them outside on pavers, concrete, sidewalks, etc., especially near small mounds of dirt on or near cracks and seams in the concrete.

Where do you find pavement ants?

As their name indicates, pavement ants are primarily outdoor insects. They typically nest beneath gravel, sand, pavement, sidewalks, concrete slabs, etc. While they do come inside to forage for food and, sometimes, to seek a warm spot during winter; the majority of pavement ants stay outside.

Because they don’t nest in, eat or damage wood, pavement ants do not cause structural damage. They do sometimes nest inside over the winter. When they do, you will tend to find these ants near masonry walls on the ground level, in wall or ceiling voids, under floors, in wall insulation or near sources of heat. They will travel along pipes, electrical lines, conduits, along baseboards and near the edges of carpeting.

Pavement ants enter homes and buildings through expansion joints, cracks in the building’s concrete slab, weep holes, gaps, sub-slab heating ducts, around waste pipes, bathroom traps, and other small openings. Pavement ants can also follow trails as far as 30 feet when they’re searching for food.

Still, in general, pavement ants prefer to live outside. Carpenter ants are a much bigger problem indoors.

How can you tell if pavement ants are inside?

While pavement ants generally stay outdoors, here’s how to tell if they came inside:

1) A trail inside, especially in kitchens while they’re hunting for food.
2) Swarming ants
3) Piles of “ant dump,” which is dirt, debris, tiny pieces of concrete or mortar, etc. pushed out while pavement ants nest

A single ant or two can wander in or accidentally be carried inside any time. With regards to point number one above, if you see worker pavement ants consistently over a period of a few weeks, they might be nesting inside your home. Speaking of which…

What do pavement ants eat?

Pavement ants, Tetramorium caespitum, are also commonly called “sugar ants” in the United States, which are not to be confused with Camponotus consobrinus. That’s an Australian ant which is also referred to as “sugar ants.”

Pavement ants are often nicknamed “sugar ants” due to their taste in sweets. Sugar and crumbs from sweet foods attract them as do grains, cereal, and pet food. They can also be attracted by fats, grease and proteins. Outdoors, they are known to eat plant roots, seeds and the honeydew from aphids.

Can pavement ants sting?

Yes, but not usually humans.

Pavement ants do have a stinger but it’s primarily used when fighting with other ants. Even then pavement ants tend to be rather tame in comparison to some other insects, so they mostly fight to defend their territory, and attacking pavement ants tend to only do so when they need to expand into a new area that already has another ant colony.

Stingers in pavement ants are fairly weak. They’re not strong enough to break human skin so they’re more of a nuisance (unlike wasps, hornets, or yellow jackets).

Pavement ants, however, are very territorial and can get into fights on a large scale with other pavement ant colonies, especially in the spring and early summer. When you see large amounts of pavement ants on the sidewalk, this might be what happened.

It’s one of those things that keep any property owner up at night. You may do everything in your power to keep your home or business well maintained, but a bad termite infestation can definitely affect your property value. So you need to be on the lookout and this is the time of year you should pay special attention to possible termite problems. As the weather gets warmer, termites will become more active. It’s also common to see termites swarm in the spring. If you’re worrying about termites right now, you can protect yourself with Arrow Exterminating.

Arrow Has Been Battling Termites For More Than 70 Years

Arrow Exterminating is no newcomer to the battle against termites, we’ve been helping customers battle termites on Long Island in Nassau and Suffolk Counties since 1947. We also serve the 5 boroughs of New York City. Our expert technicians know all the ways termites can get onto your property. We will inspect the premises as well as the interior of your home or business for evidence of infestation. If we see something, we’ll design a plan to take care of the problem. We want our customers to know about spring termite swarms.

Termite Colonies and Swarming

To understand why termites begin to swarm in the spring, we need to understand a bit about the life cycle of termites and what goes on in termite colonies. According to the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), termites are usually classified in three groups: Workers, Soldiers and Swarmers. Workers are basically in the construction and repair business; they build and repair the colony’s nest. Soldiers take care of protecting the nests. Swarmers handle reproduction and there’s a lot of that going on in the spring.

When the weather gets warmer, NPMA estimates this occurs around the time temperatures hit 70 degrees Fahrenheit, both male and female swarmers become active. Termites look like ants but with a straight waist (instead of pinched) and wings about twice the length of the body. They leave their nests in large numbers and female swarmers release mating pheromones to attract males. The termites couple and begin to nest. When the coupling happens, the male termites shred their wings. If you see those wings in your home, it’s a telltale sign that you may have an infestation.

According to Angie’s List, you will only see termites swarm once and that is early in the spring.  Very often the swarming will occur right after a heavy rain. If you see any other type of insect swarming after spring, they usually aren’t termites. They might be ants and you shouldn’t ignore them but now is the time to begin looking for termites. The swarming termites won’t immediately damage your property, but once a colony is established you could see damage and termite damage can be extensive. These insects cause over $2 billion in damage each year.

If You Have Termites, You Need Arrow

Discarded wings aren’t the only signs of termite infestation. Other things that indicate you may have a problem include dark, blistering or rotted wood, and dirt colored tubes in or around your home or wooden structural features of your home or building which sound hollow when tapped. If you have any of these problems, don’t risk the damage. Contact Arrow today.

If you were to pause and think about how many bugs are in show business, you would realize that you made the wrong career choice and start Googling “insect talent agent.” Whether it’s as your conscience personified or as your phobia relived, insects find a way to make it onto the silver screen. Below, we’ve made a list of films with the most memorable insects for you to enjoy.

“James and the Giant Peach” – When you combine the twisted brilliance of Tim Burton and Roald Dahl, things are bound to get creepy. The group of insects that James befriends when he transforms from human to clay figure are what make the movie what it is. No one could ever forget the scene where Mr. Centipede gets captured by pirates and is stretched passed human/insect capacity. My joints ache just by thinking about it.

Scarab Beetles from “The Mummy” – Anyone and everyone’s nightmares come to life when the incredibly fast beetles crawl under the skin of the people in the movie. I think after this film was released, travel reservations to Egypt plummeted due to the public’s fear of these beetles’ existence. *Shudders*

Essentially any character in “A Bug’s Life” – An ant that invents a hang glider and a telescopes, a gluttonous German caterpillar and a gender-confused ladybug with a temper. What more could you need from a Disney movie?

The tarantula from “Home Alone” – This insect helped save Kevin McAlister’s life, for crying out loud! He deserves the Noble Peace Prize! Hero or not, I wouldn’t want him crawling on my face.

Charlotte from “Charlotte’s Web” – Charlotte is the only spider that I’ve mourned the death of – real or fiction. She taught Wilber – who was completely obnoxious – how to love himself. She showed him how to make the best of each day rather than wallow in the sad truth of his imminent death. She was “some spider.” Rest in peace, Charlotte. Rest in peace.

We often associate venom with snakebites, but did you know fire ants have it, too? If you’re unlucky enough to be injected by fire ant venom, you’ll likely suffer from small, red welts that are itchy, swelling and painful. In the worst case, you could even have a severe allergic reaction. Here’s how to mitigate the damage.

You’re Stung – Now What?

Start with a cold pack to alleviate itching, numb the area and bring down swelling. Next, take an antihistamine or apply hydrocortisone cream to reduce pain and itching. Follow up with a pain reliever. You’ll likely have a bump for up to an hour and a small blister for up to a day

Allergic Reactions

In the most extreme cases, one can have severe allergic reactions to fire ant stings. Hives, nausea and tongue swelling are a few of the many symptoms you can suffer. Seek medical attention immediately if a severe allergic reaction occurs. In the most extreme cases, fire ant bites can be life-threatening.

Spotting Fire Ants

Fire ants are reddish and build mounds, which are especially noticeable after a good rain. Not native to the India , fire ants were accidentally brought into the country in the 1930s. The best way to prevent fire ant stings is to be aware of your surroundings to avoid stepping into mounds. Home inspections also are an effective way to identify and receive guidance on how to keep fire ants out of your yard.

Villains and bugs have one thing in common: their intrinsic evilness. But do you ever wonder what kind of pest your favorite villain would be if he or she were in a bug movie? From comic book characters to children’s movies, here’s a breakdown of a few villains and the types of bugs they most identify with.

Lord Voldermort

As Lord Voldemort took hold of the Dark Arts in the Harry Potter series, the cockroach embraces the darkest areas of your home. Whether you’ve seen one creeping behind your dirty laundry hamper or crawling around your washing machine, these tiny creatures are just as evil and scary as the on-screen villain. If you’ve seen one too many of these in your home, call a pest-control muggle.

The Joker

The Joker is often pictured rubbing his hands together in a devious, yet creepy way – just like the common housefly. Just when you think they have left you alone, they are back to buzz in your ear and ruin your nice afternoon. Either way, the twitchy nature of both the fly and The Joker will leave you wondering what comes next.

The Wicked Witch

The Wicked Witch of the West is depicted as a green-skinned witch who ruins Dorothy’s trip to Oz. Similarly, the green stink bug can ruin anyone’s day after releasing the foul odor it uses as a defense mechanism. This smelly bug will get you, and your little dog, too

Freddy Krueger

Just like Freddy Krueger attacks during night time, the bed bug also strikes while you’re sleeping. While the bed bug won’t kill you, this stubborn parasite can leave behind itchy bites that will have you scratching for days. One…two they’re coming for you.

From on-screen to in-home, it’s easy to see that bugs and villains have a lot in common. If you have any evil pests that you need handled, contact us to schedule a pest control appointment today. Our team of experienced exterminators, not only help get bugs under control but can spot areas of risk.

Whether it’s spiders, scorpions or fire ants – pest control is a serious matter. Even though critters can appear cute, it’s important to teach your little ones to keep their distance. While your kiddos only want to play, what they don’t understand is that pests often carry diseases or even bite. These tips will help keep your children safe.

1. Fence it in. Protect your plants and your kids with a simple mesh fence that will differentiate your garden from the rest of your backyard. Fencing is an effective technique to keep unwelcome rabbits or bunnies out of your garden. Even though these critters look friendly, they’re capable of carrying dangerous diseases.
2. Garden in flower pots. By planting your precious produce in flower pots, you can stop convenient snack opportunities for pests who might sting or bite your child. A flower pot is raised up from the ground-level and might deter any pest from nibbling. If this doesn’t work, try placing your flower pots on elevated surfaces so you can keep a better eye on your plant.
3. Use tactics to scare animals. Metallic CDs or even a scarecrow are techniques that you can use to keep pesky animals away from your children. While these ideas might seem outdated, they are worth a try.
4. Utilize repellents. From Citronella candles to essential oils and bug spray, sometimes your only option is to use repellents to get rid of pesky pests. It’s important to note that even though certain repellants aren’t good for animals to eat, they don’t hurt animals either. You can train the wildlife in your area to stay away from your garden by using these special repellants.

There are many methods to get rid of pests but if you’re experiencing bug troubles in your garden or in your home, contact your local pest control company to check out the area today.

If you’re scared of snakes, you’re not alone. Around 51% of people say snakes freak them out, according to a Gallup poll. Imagine walking into the kitchen and seeing a snake coiled up on the floor at your feet. Luckily, most house snakes are smaller because they can fit through the gaps. If you can call a pest control company for snake removal, keep any children and pets away from the area and keep an eye on the snake while you call. While it’s best to call a pest control company for snake removal, sometimes not interacting with the snake isn’t always an option. Here is what to do if you find a snake in your home:

• Remain calm and try not to disturb the snake or drive it into hiding.
• If it is possible to get it out the door, grab a broom and gently guide the snake out the door. Safety comes first, make sure you are careful if you are trying to handle the snake yourself.
• If the snake is coiled, place a trash can or bucket over it with some weight on top and wait for a pest control company to come.
• If you are unsure if the snake is poisonous, it is best to leave it for professionals to take care of and remove from your property. Once the snake is removed from your home, you want to safeguard against any further invasions. Most likely, it slithered in through a small gap or hole in your house. Finding these and fixing them will prevent any future snakes making an unwelcome visit to your home. If you have a snake in your walls, do not try to coax it out of hiding. Call a pest control company to come and remove it from your walls.Finding a reliable and knowledgeable pest company doesn’t need to be difficult – Perfect24x7pest control is here for all your pest needs Snake removal and helping you prevent future visits are part of our service.

Spider bites can be a terrifying experience. While many spiders are harmless and their bites do not need medical attention, some spider bites are a cause for concern. If you’ve been bitten by a spider, there are steps you can take to minimize harm and take care of yourself properly.

Determine what kind of spider bit you

The type of spider that bit you will indicate how serious the bite is and whether you can treat it at home. Most spiders in the United States are not dangerous, and many are not large or strong enough to puncture the skin. However, you may have been bitten by a black widow or brown recluse spider, whose bites will require medical assistance. Look up pictures of the spider that bit you and determine if it is a black widow or brown recluse. This will help you determine if you need to seek out a doctor for treatment.

Decide if you need medical attention

If you have been bitten by a dangerous spider or cannot determine the type of spider that bit you, go to the doctor immediately for further evaluation. If you are experiencing symptoms such as severe pain, abdominal cramping, excess swelling or breathing issues, the bite is urgent. Black widow spider bites cause pain, stiffness, abdominal pain, chills, fever, and nausea. Brown recluse spider bites cause intense pain, and the area around the bite is characterized by a blue or purple tinge and a possible red ring. A doctor can determine the seriousness of the bite and decide further treatment if necessary.

If not, treat the bite at home

If you have been bitten by a harmless spider, you may have an itchy wound, but the spider has either left harmless venom or was too weak to inject any venom at all. Clean the wound using soap, water, and antibiotic ointment. Apply an ice pack to the bite and take an antihistamine medication if needed. You can also elevate the bitten area to help with swelling.

Check up on the bite

If a bite causes you to develop more serious symptoms, seek out a doctor. It is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to spider bites.

If you often have to deal with spiders in your home, you should look into finding a form of spider control. The experts at Perfect24x7Pest Control can help you avoid an infestation of spiders, dangerous or not, in your home. By removing spiders from your home, you remove the risk of dangerous spider bites in the future.
