Typical Lafayette Pest Control Problems
Ants are another highly common pest for homeowners, especially in Lafayette. A few species that regularly invade houses include pavement ants, pharaoh ants, odorous house ants, and carpenter ants. Carpenter ants are the most destructive of these species. They use their huge jaws to carve tunnels and galleries through damaged wood, and sometimes they’ll carve through completely healthy wood, too. They can remain undetected inside the walls for up to 10 years, causing damage to homes that isn’t covered by insurance.
Rodents also pose a threat to homeowners in Lafayette. Mice and rats’ flexible bodies allow them to squeeze through the smallest of holes. If they find an entryway inside, they will gnaw their way through food, insulation, and other household items. Mice and rats also frequently leave trails of feces, which can carry dangerous diseases. If you suspect a rodent infestation, call Fox Pest Control immediately.

Signs of a Pest Infestation
You might already know you have a pest problem. But here are a couple of the most common signs a pest control extermination look for in Lafayette.
- You can see the pest. The most common reason people discover they have a pest problem in Lafayette is simply by observing it. It could be a mouse in your house, cockroaches skittering when you turn on the lights, or a swarm of hornets around a nest. In any case, it’s time to get rid of pests!
- Signs of activity. Pests are adept at hiding from us, so you won’t always spot them. Instead, you might notice signs of their presence such as rodent droppings or small piles of “saw dust” resulting from termite or carpenter ant activity.
What You Need to Know About Pests
- Pests come in a large variety. In Lafayette, the most common kinds of pests you’ll see around your home include:
- Pests find their way in through any open, unsealed space. This includes cracks in the wood and gaps in the window or old weather stripping. It’s important to get help from a professional exterminator because, depending on the species, they may create nests, contaminate food and water in your kitchen and bathroom, or cause damage to the inside of walls, electrical wiring, or other parts of the house.
- While some pests can cause home damage, many carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans. You must control mosquitoes and rodents as they are the most notorious for this.
- Spiders and wasps are famous for their venomous bite and painful sting. Extreme cases of spider bites or wasp stings can cause life-threatening reactions and hospitalization.

- Seal cracks to prevent intrusion.
- Clean baseboards, cabinets, and countertops regularly.
