Why do I get Centipedes In My Home?

Centipedes may enter your home in search of food, shelter, and moisture. Here are some common reasons why centipedes may be present in your home:

• Moisture: Centipedes require a moist environment to survive, so they may be attracted to areas of your home that are moist, such as basements, crawl spaces, and bathrooms.

• Food sources: Centipedes feed on insects, spiders, and other small animals, so they may be entering your home in search of food.

• Entry points: Centipedes can enter your home through small cracks and gaps, so it's important to inspect your home and seal up any potential entry points.

• Climate: Centipedes are more active in warm and humid environments, so they may be more likely to enter your home during the warmer months.

To prevent centipedes from entering your home, it's important to reduce moisture levels and eliminate food sources, such as insects and spiders. You can also use centipede bait or insecticide to control centipede populations. If you have a persistent centipede problem, it's best to contact a professional exterminator for proper treatment and elimination. If you are having a centipede problem, give Spectrum Pest Control in Wexford, PA a call today. We have a service that will eliminate your centipede problem as well as your general insects like spider.

Are Bedbugs Dangerous?

Bedbugs are not known to transmit diseases, but their bites can cause physical and psychological distress.

The bites can cause skin irritation, itching, and in some cases, an allergic reaction. Scratching the bites can lead to secondary infections. In severe cases, bedbug bites can result in anemia, especially in young children or individuals with weakened immune systems.

Bedbugs can also cause anxiety and stress due to the discomfort they cause and their presence in the home.

While bedbugs are not dangerous, they can be a nuisance and can be difficult to eliminate once they become established in a home. If you suspect you have a bedbug infestation, it's best to contact a pest control professional for a proper bed bug treatment. Spectrum Pest Control offers a three-stage bedbug removal that is the best in the business. If you suspect a bedbug infestation, give Spectrum a call today!

Contrary to popular belief, having pests in your home doesn’t mean that you’ve done something wrong. Pests are opportunistic. If they can access your home, they’ll be happy to stay.

How can you let pests know they aren’t welcome? Outside, keep your foundation in good repair so pests can’t get in.

Inside, keep your living space clutter-free and avoid leaving food out in your kitchen or pantry.
It’s also a good idea to learn the tell-tale signs of infestation. If you know what to look for, you can spot infestations early.
