Ants are attracted to termites because they feed on their waste. Also, ants are predatory to termites. So if you see ants along your walls, this could also be a sign that termites might be nearby.
Spiders
Dominion is receiving many calls this year for residents requesting help for spiders — inside and outside their homes! Most folks who report spider issues in Lancaster, York, and Central PA, seem to be bothered in spring, and again in the fall. This is when spiders try to enter homes looking for refuge from the falling temperatures.
Termites
If you are trying to figure out how to get rid of termites, we have good news for you! Lancaster and York’s truly local termite company, Dominion Pest Control, has experts on staff who not only knows how to identify a termite infestation in Lancaster and York, but knows how to get rid of the entire termite colony. Our team will dig, drill, and pump termiticide into an affected area, striking the termite colony with a death blow. Our technicians make termite control a reality, rather than a daunting and never-ending battle that can cause serious structural damage to your home.
Bed Bugs
But how do you get rid of bed bugs? And how do you keep them away for good? We’ve broken down the process into 5 clear steps or “phases” of bed bug removal and prevention.
Fleas
Mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks... sometimes it seems they are all lining up to see how they can ruin your summertime cookouts, barbecues, or yard games. The challenge of eradicating lawn pests can seem never-ending in south central Pennsylvania and makes lawn pest control a priority for most homeowners in this area.
Cockroaches
Bees
What are those swarms of flies or gnats that hover around yards in the summertime, sometimes almost making a buzzing sound like bees?
Ticks
Bed bugs present themselves as a general nuisance all over the world; in fact, they can be found in every country and on every continent except Antarctica! Bed bugs get their name through their nasty habit of feeding on human blood while we sleep in our beds, but they can be anywhere. They generally dislike the heat, so they don’t tend to linger on our skin or in our hair like lice or ticks. Instead, bed bugs like to hitch a ride from place to place on our clothing, shoes, backpacks, and luggage.
Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are the biggest culprit of all the patio and lawn pests, not just because of their nasty bites but also because of their role in spreading disease such as the Zika Virus or West Nile Virus. For a number of years now, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has conducted an active program for combatting West Nile Virus and targets specific areas for mosquito treatment each year.
Flies
Centipedes
Beetles
Dominion also treats for other wood-destroying insects such as carpenter ants, carpenter bees and wood boring beetles. Dominion even offers preventative treatments with a warranty and WDI report real estate transactions and for home inspections reports. Termite treatment is within reach; call us today at 717-393-7879 to get started!
Hornets
I wanted to take a moment to say thanks to Dominion Pest Control. After calling a minimum of 10 competitors (both local and national) because of a growing bee problem around a tree several feet from my front door, I was most impressed with the concern, honesty, and friendly phone service that was given by Dominion Pest Control. When I mentioned that I was allergic to bee’s, the owner himself said, “we have to make this customer a priority and get out to her home tomorrow to see what’s happening”. The initial cost was also the most competitive of all the other companies I spoke to. None of the other businesses, including one that came to visit, identified correctly what the bee was. Some even attempted to leverage my fears and tell me they were sure I had hornets. When Dominion arrived the next day, he looked around the tree and told me that I had mud daubers and that they are not aggressive and that they were around the tree because they were feeding on it. Also, he helped identify another insect issue we were having inside our home spending a great deal of time attempting to identify the source. I found them to be the most educated and educationally oriented company, the most professional, honest, dependable and the best price too. I have no problem unequivocally recommending this local company to anyone in need of their services.
Gnats
Believe it or not, these little pests are appropriately called lawn gnats, and although they are a major nuisance, they are actually harmless. They prefer hot and rainy weather, and you can expect them to develop in the damp soil rich in decaying plant material or around your composter.
When people think of calling in the exterminator, they picture pests infiltrating their home and wreaking havoc. However, lawn pest control is important to protecting your home further and Dominion wants to help! Dominion’s lawn team will treat your yard for pests such as ants, mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, moles, voles and spotted lanternfly. We answer dozens of calls from Lancaster and York area residents daily; let us help you, too!
Snakes
Dominion’s owner, Greg Pettis, decided to offer the Green Pest Control Program after encountering the new all-natural line of pesticides from Nature-Cide®. “We had tried ‘Green’ products in the past, only to be disappointed,” Pettis admits. “It took a lot to change my mind, and Nature-Cide® did it.” The company is using the all-natural line of products on pests such as spiders, centipedes, fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, ants, and more. “Products we are using on the perimeter from Nature-Cide® even repel mice, rats, and snakes. Nothing we have ever used before could do that.”
It’s also important to note that humans are not a bed bug’s only source of food; bed bugs can also feed on rodents, pets, and other animals that may be living in the house too. So even if humans aren’t around, if there are animals in the house that the bed bugs can feed on, they could end up surviving well beyond the expected 4.5 months.
Mice
Rats
There are various pet-friendly yard sprays that will not harm your dogs or cats. If you are concerned about your application, we invite you to check out our Green Pest Control line of products called Nature-Cide that can be sprayed on the yard, but is also available in pre-mixed spray bottles that can be used on animals and around the home. The Nature-Cide product even works to repel mice, rats, and snakes.
Voles
Our most common lawn pest control services include mosquito spray and flea treatment for your yard to stop pests in their tracks.
