Listed below are some pests that commonly affect Northern Nevada
Ants
You may experience many types of ant problems such as Carpenter Ants, Flying Ants, Pavement Ants, Odorous House Ants, Cornfield Ants, False Honey Ants, and Little Black Ants. However, these pests are more of an annoyance since they are not damaging your home’s structure like Carpenter Ants. At HiLow Services, we realize that you do not want these pests in your home, which is why we offer services to prevent and eliminate ants. We’ll get rid of the ants for good! Ants can enter through tiny cracks in your home, looking for food or water. If you have a nest of ants anywhere near your home, you are open to an ant infestation. Some ant colonies can grow as large as 500,000 ants, and they have no problem moving if they feel it’s necessary.
This is why DIY ant exterminations don’t typically work because they don’t account for the hundreds of thousands of ants you can’t see.

Termites live in social colonies, typically found in the soil. While they are generally found foraging underground for fallen wood, or plant debris, they can also enter homes, causing extensive damage if left untreated.

Mouse Control and Elimination
Mice are often not seen by homeowners because they usually only come out at night, and they are identified through the damage they cause and the noises they make while out of sight. Their natural diet consists of seeds and grains, but they will eat many different things.
Mice tend to nibble on things, making frequent trips to food sources within 25 feet of their nests. After mice enter your home, they can be extremely difficult to get rid of since they often live in hidden areas within garages, attics, lofts, and wall interiors. To learn more about mice click here
Mice removal and prevention is included with our Shield Home Protection Plan and the Shield Exclusion Service. To learn more, please give us a call or fill out the form on this page
Spiders
The Black Widow and Brown Recluse spider are also found in our area, and it is suggested you schedule an appointment with HiLow Services to ensure your home or business is protected from an infestation.
To deal with spiders inside, you can also vacuum with a crack and crevice attachment to remove spiders and their eggs as a quick reduction measure, though the bag should be removed and thrown out right after.
Still, the most important measure to keep spiders away is to eliminate their prey insects as much as is possible.
HiLow’s service for spiders includes knocking down visible webs and providing treatments in areas where there would likely be insects, and thus spider activity.
This will reduce the insects’ presence, taking away the spiders’ food source and leading to a reduction in the number of spiders in your home. If you have spiders in your home, please give us a call or fill out the form on this page.
