Typical Fairfield Pest Control Problems

Fairfield is a beautiful place to live. It has the feel of suburban life, yet the big cities aren’t too far away. Many natural aspects of Fairfield contribute to its beauty, but they also contribute to pest pressures in the area. Open spaces, parks, and conservation areas in Fairfield can contribute to problems with mice, rats, and wasps.

Mice and rats are the most prevalent pest issue in Connecticut. During the winter, they find their way into homes and businesses by squeezing their way through tiny gaps and cracks of the home or building. They make hidden nests in kitchens, attics, basements, or other areas close to food and water. Because of their urge to wear down their teeth that never stop growing, they gnaw on walls, chew through food storage containers, and even cut their teeth on metal or hard plastic.  Unfortunately, they can transport disease-ridden ticks and fleas during the winter, aiding in the spread of disease. 

Wasps are by far the most dangerous pest problem in Connecticut and throughout the United States. For many, wasp stings raise a painful welt that swells and disappears after a few days. For others, stings can cause major allergic reactions that last much longer or even cause anaphylaxis, which is life-threatening. If you suspect an infestation, call Fox  Pest Control immediately.
