Typical Elizabethtown Pest Control Problems
Residents in Elizabethtown, PA may notice rodents in or around their homes, especially during the fall months. Mice and rats will find ways into the warm indoors through exterior vents or cracks of the house. They will use materials like newspapers, clothing, insulation, or dryer lint to create nests in hidden areas. Rodents are drawn to food and moist areas, so a kitchen is a prime spot. This can be dangerous, because they can spread diseases to humans if they contaminate food. If you notice rodent droppings, be sure to call Fox Pest Control immediately.
Wasps are another common pest in Elizabethtown. Drawn to overhangs and eaves, they look for hidden spots to create their nests. Paper wasps are also drawn to wooden structures, as the queen wasp chews up wooden fibers to create a paste for their nests. If you notice several wasps around your house, you can guarantee that a nest is near.

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 Lancaster.
- You can see the pest. The most common reason people discover they have a pest problem in Lancaster 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 Lancaster, 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.
