Ants
Report
No one ever likes seeing a line of ants making their way through the house.
Although it may be satisfying to start killing them immediately, just remember there are a lot more where those came from.
Ant baits are an effective method of eliminating ants.
Ant baits are a pesticide that typically comes in gel or granular forms.
These baits work slowly to make sure the ants take the bait back to their colony to share with others.
If the ants take to the bait, more ants will show up to feed.
This can be off-putting to see, but it will be the quickest and most effective way to take care of your problem.

Bed Bugs
Report
Bed bugs can live for over a year without feeding.
This allows them to wait for potential hosts.
Bed bugs can inhabit any number of locations and then hitchhike their way back to your home.
Definitely be cautious when buying or accepting secondhand items like clothing, mattresses, and furniture.
However, they can also be found hiding in other locations: furniture, nightstands, carpet edges, curtains, baseboards, wall voids, door frames, electrical outlets, etc.
Blood stains on bedding may indicate the presence of bed bugs.

Cockroaches
Report
Cockroaches need food and water to grow and reproduce.
They like warm places and feed on food, pet food, trash, etc.
With adequate food and water, cockroaches will mate and reproduce quickly laying several dozen eggs at a time.
They are mostly nocturnal and like to hide.
There are several different products that can be used to eliminate your roach infestation.
Inspect house foundations, crawlspaces, and basements for locations where insects can get in.
Apply a sealant to any gaps.

Fleas
Report
Don't let your pets be eaten alive.
Fleas are small wingless insects that can jump long distances.
Most homeowners will have an issue with either dog or cat fleas.
However, children can get fleas by sleeping or resting in the same bed as an infested pet.
The adult is attracted to the heat of a potential host as well as its breath (carbon dioxide.)
Additionally, the flea can detect movement and will jump up to a foot to make contact with a host.
The flea will then feed on the host starting the cycle again.

Mosquitoes
Report
Mosquitoes are not only a strong nuisance, but they can also carry dangerous diseases like West Nile Virus, Encephalitis, Malaria, and Zika.
They can also transmit heartworm disease in dogs.
The floodwater moquito is a common mosquito that lay their eggs in low-lying areas that will be flooded later.
After heavy rains, these biting mosquitoes will emerge and can be a major nuisance.
However, even though they are a vicious biter, they are not a significant disease carrier in Illinois.
The Culex or house mosquito is the one to watch out for.
