What Everyone Should Know About Dangerous Spiders In Addison
While spiders are a prevalent pest in the Addison area, there are two species that are very common and very dangerous. The black widow and brown recluse spider loiter around the area and are capable of inflicting very serious harm on the area’s residents. The black widow is perhaps the most well-known because of its depictions in popular culture and iconic red hourglass stamp. The brown recluse is typically a light brown color, has a violin shape stamp, and has six eyes, making it one of the most adept hunting spiders.
The female black widow is most well known for weaving her web, where she waits for prey to walk by before injecting her venom, while the brown recluse is often on the move. Neither spider actively seeks human contact; however, given their feasting habits, it’s likely that homeowners will come into contact with either based on their whereabouts. Outside of the home, both types of spiders can be found in garages or sheds, underneath porches, and amidst brush and rock piles, while inside the home, black widows prefer closets and basements, while the brown recluse is usually on the move. For reliable spider protection, contact the pros at Adams Exterminating Company today.

Why Summer Tick Prevention Is Essential For Addison Homes
Professional assistance with tick prevention is one of the smartest decisions that Addison homeowners can make to protect the people and pets around them. Tick season is a potentially dangerous time of the year for residents because these pests are capable of spreading some very serious health risks. Ticks are associated with Rocky Mountain spotted fever, tularemia, and Lyme disease, to name a few. Another key issue that ticks present is that while only certain species are linked with certain health issues, it’s impossible to tell simply by looking at a tick if they are carrying the pathogens that cause those problems, because not all ticks do. In addition to limiting exposure to these harms, professional tick prevention is also simply the most effective way to address them.
Ticks access properties in a multitude of ways that can include latching onto rodents and wildlife, pets, or personal belongings. From there, their populations can grow exponentially. It’s impossible for the average homeowner to eliminate these issues on their own or even take all of the necessary steps toward prevention that still don’t guarantee results. At Adams Exterminating Company, we provide seasonal tick prevention that allows homeowners to relax and restores their peace of mind. For more information on these services, call us today.
The Problem With Do-It-Yourself Rodent Control In Your Addison Home
It’s not uncommon for Addison homeowners to spot a mouse or other rodent, think that’s the entire issue, and try to handle it themselves. However, if rodents appear in your home, do-it-yourself techniques are not the approach you should take. These methods fail to account for the likelihood that your rodent infestation is usually much larger than an individual member, given their ability to reproduce every few months. Rodents are also able to slip through dime-sized openings, use sewer systems, or even scale rooflines, all of which are either difficult or impossible for the average homeowner to access.
DIY methods fail to address the root cause of rodent problems and allow current and future infestations to perpetuate. Rodents have developed a dependent relationship with people and many homeowners are completely unaware of this fact. Whether it’s small leaks around your home or simply having garbage in the kitchen that you need to remove, there is always something enticing to rodents about your property. Products that you can purchase at the hardware store are incapable of breaking this cycle. For more information on reliable rodent control, contact Adams Exterminating today.
Our FAQ
Have questions? We are here to help. Still have questions or can't find the answer you need? Give us a call at 940-239-9786 today!
-
I have a baby/toddler… is it safe to have treatment?While the products we use are toxic to insects, they pose almost no serious risk to people when used properly. However, it is always advisable to be careful when using chemicals around small children, including pesticides. If you have a small child, we recommend staying away from the treatment area while the service is being performed and then wait until the product has dried.
-
Do you offer termite control?
Yes, both our Home Guardian and Home Guardian Plus plans offer termite control using the proven Sentricon® System with Always Active™ along with a termite service warranty.
-
If your company puts out rodent poison at my house, will a rat die inside?Yes, this is a possibility. Ideally, we prefer to use traps on the inside and in the attic, and then place rodent poison in protected stations on the exterior (which could reduce the likelihood of having a rodent die inside). However, anytime a rodenticide is used, there is always a threat that a rat or mouse could die on the inside. If the dead rodent can be located and removed, this will fix the smell. Otherwise, we sell odor control products to help with unpleasant smells should this unfortunately occur.
-
What type of payment options do you accept?We accept cash, check or credit card. We do ask that you pay at the time of service. Many of our customers put a credit card on file with our office. It is stored securely in our system and only charges AFTER the service is rendered.
Three Things You Can Do To Minimize Mosquitoes In Addison
This summer, you will probably experience an increase in mosquitoes around your Addition property. These pests are on the search for the human blood that the females require in order to reproduce, which can leave you covered in itchy bites that are uncomfortable and potentially very dangerous. In order to reduce your exposure to them, try these three things you can do right away:
- Maintain a tidy yard. Keep your lawn trim, scale back hedges and trees, and avoid overwatering.
- Make some personal habit changes. Ditch scented laundry detergent and perfumes, limit alcohol consumption, and stay indoors at night.
- Look for water. Mosquitoes thrive in stagnant water so make sure that no still water collects in areas like grill covers and flower pots.
To increase your level of protection from mosquitoes, Adams Exterminating Company can help. We provide two key services that allow you to enjoy your property once again. With routine backpack misting treatments, we’re able to address all of the hard-to-reach areas around your property to reduce mosquito populations. We can also install the In2Care system, which provides continuous support by spreading an EPA-approved biological agent to female mosquitoes. For more information on mosquito prevention, contact us today.
