Why Hire a Vancouver Exterminator?

Household pests, from harmless but destructive silver fish to biting invaders like bed bugs, are a problem here in Vancouver just like they are anywhere else. Maybe you’ve seen a spider in the corner and figured it’s harmless, or perhaps you’re fighting the influx of ants that just won’t go away no matter how much you spray. You’re not alone; many Vancouver residents are dealing with pest issues. 

There are an incredible number of household solutions that claim to deal with a pest infestation. You can even find DIY advice for how to get rid of larger pests, like raccoons or squirrels that take up residency in your eaves or attic. Are there any tricks that actually work? Can you rid yourself of an infestation without calling a professional Vancouver exterminator? Perhaps, but there are many instances when you should simply call an exterminator at the first sign of trouble. 

Common Pests You Should Not Ignore

The scariest infestations are the ones that include biting animals or insects. Bed bugs tend to be the most intimidating of pests, and for good reason. Once bed bugs get a foothold, they are notoriously difficult to get out. If you think you may have bed bugs, call an exterminator right away. 

In general, it’s best to call an exterminator when you realize that there’s a problem. Especially if you’re not sure what the pest is, your best bet is someone who has a lot of experience dealing with pests. Exterminators in Vancouver will know how to identify pests, can warn you of the threat they represent, and can get rid of the pest for good. Household remedies for pests tend to only deal with the pests you can see, not the eggs or the home of the pest. Only an experienced exterminator knows how to get to the root of the problem and help you to avoid it in the future.
