Carpenter Ant

Oakville, ON Carpenter Ant

While the typical ants that crash your picnic are merely annoying, carpenter ants can truly wreak havoc on your property. At Truly Nolen Canada, one of our specialties is helping residents of Oakville to get rid of these pests once and for all. Whether you are currently experiencing a carpenter ant problem or not, it’s important to understand the impact they can have on your home and what you can do to keep them at bay.

 

The Dangers of Carpenter Ants

Carpenter ants nest all over North America, including Oakville. Unfortunately, their normal nesting sites are the holes and tunnels they carve out of wood. This poses a significant threat to your deck, outdoor furniture, the siding of your house and other important structural elements. Over time, the hollow areas carpenter ants create in wooden materials may cause them to weaken and even collapse.

 

How To Identify Carpenter Ants

These little wood-loving critters are typically about half an inch long and have brown bodies. One of the strongest indicators that carpenter ants are present on your property is the tell-tale pile of “sawdust” they leave behind as they spit out bits of wood. You may find carpenter ants on any of the wood products in and around your building, but they have a preference for rotting or damp materials. For instance, if the wood trim around your windows has become soft and wet, this may be an ideal nesting spot for carpenter ants.

 

Tips To Keep Carpenter Ants Away

At Truly Nolen Canada, we support Oakville’s residents in doing what they can to proactively defend their buildings from carpenter ants. One of the best things you can do to discourage these critters from hanging around your property is to remove as many potential nesting sites as possible. This may involve clearing your yard of decaying stumps and debris, as well as replacing any rotting boards in and around your home. Additionally, be sure to fix any water leaks to avoid creating the damp conditions these critters favour.

 

How Truly Nolen Canada Takes Action

At Truly Nolen Canada, we aim to treat carpenter ant infestations efficiently but thoroughly. After analyzing the nesting locations on your property, we use liquid and solid bait insecticides designed for carpenter ant removal. Our approach reduces the chance that the pests will simply relocate and helps reach entire colonies when the bait is carried back to the nest. If you suspect you have a population of carpenter ants damaging your property, reach out to Truly Nolen Canada today to learn more about our pest control services in Oakville. Our technicians will help resolve the problem and set your mind at ease.

Bed Bug Control

Truly Nolen Oakville, ON Bed Bug Image

While no homeowner welcomes an infestation of any kind of pest, bed bugs are notoriously bothersome and hard to get rid of. At Truly Nolen, bed bug removal in Oakville is one of our specialties. Consider a few key facts about how these critters live and what can be done about them.

 

Bed Bug Signs and Symptoms

While bed bugs often make their home in mattresses, as their name suggests, you may also find them in other areas of your house. Bed bugs have been known to hide away in a number of different materials:

 

  • Upholstered furniture
  • Clothing
  • Boxes
  • Wallpaper
  • Electrical outlets
  • Luggage

These critters have flat, brown bodies and, though they are small, can usually be seen with the naked eye. You may even notice red and brown spots on your bed sheets or other fabrics due to bed bugs’ blood or waste. Although the bite of a bed bug can leave red patches on your skin, some people show no noticeable reaction to a bite.

 

Tips for Keeping Bed Bugs Away

Bed bugs are more than just unsightly nuisances. Because they bite humans and animals to feed on their blood, these pests can potentially spread diseases. For this reason, it’s important to take measures to prevent them from entering your home. While some sources of bed bugs are hard to detect, one of the best ways to avoid an infestation is to limit the amount of used furniture, clothing and other materials you bring into your home. At the very least, it’s a good idea to carefully inspect these items. Bed bugs are most likely to come for a visit during the summer and fall, so be sure to be extra vigilant at this time.

 

How Truly Nolen Can Help

Once bed bugs have settled into your space, it’s important to reach out for professional help. These pests can reproduce rapidly, so the longer you wait to address the problem, the more serious it may become. At Truly Nolen, we have developed an effective approach to rid Oakville residents’ homes of bed bugs. First, we confirm that bed bugs are present. Next, we spray a safe material throughout the affected areas with a high-pressure misting system. This device allows our treatment to reach even the smallest nooks and crannies of your house.

 

Contact Us Today

At Truly Nolen, we understand how important it is to maintain a safe and healthy environment for yourself and your family to live in. If you suspect bed bugs have invaded your space, reach out to one of our representatives today to learn more about our bed bug control services in Oakville.

Rodent Control

Oakville, ON Rodent Control Image

Protect your beautiful home in Oakville from rodents with Truly Nolen Pest Control. Whether you have a stunning home on the Lake Ontario shoreline, a downtown business or a quiet home in the suburbs, find out how we can provide year-round protection from rodent damage and health concerns with our rat and mice removal services.

 

Dangers of Rodents in Your Home

If you spot a mouse in your house, it’s time to call Truly Nolen Pest Control. Rodents are naturally timid and reproduce quickly, so the sight of one or any droppings likely means there are many rodents in your home. Don’t wait to schedule a professional service, because rodents can cause the following issues:

 

  • Property damage: Rats and mice are constantly gnawing on items to keep their teeth worn down. They’re known to gnaw on electrical wires, plumbing lines, wood joists and insulation.
  • Risk of fire: Chewing on wires not only damages your electrical system but also increases the risk of a house fire.
  • Disease and illness: Rodents are known carriers of strep and other bacteria and viruses. These diseases can be passed on through contact or airborne transmission.
  • Scratches and bites: Whether cornered or curious, rodents can bite and scratch. Children and pets can be injured from an infestation in your home.

 

Our Rodent Control Course of Action

Turn to our trusted rat removal services and Four Seasons program at Truly Nolen Pest Control. Our skilled technicians use environmentally safe and pet-friendly strategies to achieve the following results:

 

  • Exclusion
  • Removal
  • Vector control
  • Remediation

At the end of our full-service solution, your home in Oakville will be free from rodents, be safely sealed from further mouse and rat intruders and be thoroughly cleaned to prevent the spread of diseases. Don’t attempt to clean up any rodent droppings or damage yourself, as this could expose you to bacteria and viruses carried by rodents and vectors. Not only do we efficiently remove rodents, but we combine these services with other pest control solutions. Mice and rats often carry or attract fleas, roaches, ticks and mites. Effective pest control removes these disease-carrying pests as well to give you peace of mind.

Bee & Wasp Control

Truly Oakville, ON Bee and Wasp Control Image

Whether or not you have been stung by a bee or wasp before, finding these flying critters around your home can be disconcerting. You may be unsure of the risks they present and how you should respond. At Truly Nolen Canada, handling bee and wasp infestations in Oakville is our specialty. Consider a few key facts about each of these winged insects and how our experienced technicians may be able to help if you discover a nest near your house.

 

Bee Basics

There are a number of species of bees you may find in Oakville. These critters are often gray, black or brown. Surprisingly, species vary in length from 2 mm to 4 cm. Bees live off of plant pollen and nectar, making them an important contributor to cross-pollination. Honey bees commonly nest in the open spaces of trees or manmade structures and are the most active in the spring. You can generally distinguish a bee from a wasp by the former’s hairy, thick body. The main risk posed by bees is their ability to sting. For most people, the effects of a bee sting are brief, but others may experience an allergic reaction or a longer recovery time. Because some queen bees can live for several years and bees swarm to find new homes, an infestation may not go away on its own; you may require expert bee removal services.

 

What About Wasps?

Unlike bees, wasps have a narrow, shiny body and are often yellow or brown in colour. These critters have two pairs of wings and do not sting in most cases. Wasps often eat other insects, making them useful in getting rid of pests on your property. Because wasps can be aggressive in some situations, you may still need to call in professional wasp control services.

 

How Truly Nolen Canada Can Help

When you call Truly Nolen Canada, our technicians’ first step is to inspect the site where you noticed the insects. The goal is to determine what species is present and whether it is solitary or social. Next, we aim to get a clear picture of exactly where the critters are nesting. After we have gathered all this information, we can begin applying our insecticide treatment to remove the bees or wasps. At Truly Nolen Canada, we strive to handle pest control in Oakville in such a way that restores your peace of mind. We always make time to thoroughly explain the treatments we implement and what you can expect moving forward. If you believe you are experiencing a bee or wasp infestation, reach out to Truly Nolen Canada today to learn more about our bee and wasp control services.

Spider Control

Truly Nolen Oakville, ON Spider Control Image

Spiders can be found in practically every environment around the globe, and Oakville is no exception. This area is home to numerous species of spiders, though this need not be a cause for stress. At Truly Nolen Canada, we provide professional spider removal services for residents and business owners throughout the Oakville area. Consider a few key facts that may help you determine how to manage the presence of these eight-legged critters and when to call our team for expert help.

 

Spider Basics

Spiders come in many varieties, even within Oakville. While each of these species may look and behave differently, most spiders have multiple characteristics in common. For one, these arachnids generally live by eating other insects. This fact reveals some of their potential hiding spots. Because bugs often hang around food scraps and other trash, for example, you may find eight-legged critters near trash bins. Different spiders prefer distinct environments. Those that like to live in dry, warm areas may settle down around your air vents, ceiling or attic. Alternatively, spiders that are inclined to stay in damp places may set up camp near leaky pipes or in your basement. Overall, you are most likely to find spiders in areas that are not heavily trafficked.

 

The Risks

While the idea of being bitten by a spider is rather disturbing, spider venom is normally not harmful to humans. Further, spiders are unlikely to bite unless they are somehow threatened. On the other hand, the presence of spiders may indicate that your home is infested with another bug that the spiders are feeding on. Spiders also have an annoying tendency to leave webs throughout your space. Though these webs are not dangerous, per se, they are unsightly and unpleasant to walk through.

 

How We Can Help

At Truly Nolen Canada, we understand how frustrating spiders can be. When you first notice spiders in your home, we recommend that you deter them from staying by taking down their webs and removing potential hiding spots. You can do this by vacuuming your space thoroughly, including the corners of the ceiling, and picking up items on the floor. While this may help slow the spread of your spider problem, it’s best to reach out to professionals if the issue gets out of hand. Our technicians are trained to develop a safe and effective Integrated Pest Management approach to eliminate infestations. If you are ready to kick spiders out for good, reach out to Truly Nolen Canada today to learn more about spider and pest control in Oakville.
