Here are a few common signs that you might be sharing your yard space.

  • Mounds in the sand or softer dirt. When you start to see mounds growing in your ground, it could just be harmless ants, or they could be far more worrisome fire ants. Ants come in a large variety of species, many of which pack a painful bite. Our experts can tell you what type of ants you have on your property and take care of them. This is especially important if you have young children, since these ants prefer sandy areas, such as the ground under a swing set or in a sand box.
  • Dead spots in the grass. Dead spots in your grass can be problematic for more reasons than an unsightly lawn. These spots can be a problem because there are numerous pests that are common in the area and destroy lawns, and our experts can best identify the pest and perform effective outdoor pest control measures.
  • Papery Nests. If you look at the eves of your house and start to see nests being built, you will want to call us for outdoor pest control. Wasps can be dangerous and sting painfully, making them best to deal with when the nests are small.
