Picture this, you’ve just spotted something suspicious skittering across your kitchen floor. Is it time to panic and call Vergo Pest Management, or can you handle it yourself with some quick thinking and a few household items? We’ve put together this handy guide to help you decide when you’ve got things under control—and when it’s time to call in the cavalry.
Scenario 1: A Few Ants vs. an Ant Army
DIY Hero Moment: If you’ve noticed a couple of ants scurrying across your countertop, you’re likely dealing with an isolated scouting party. A bit of cleaning up crumbs and a homemade vinegar solution could send them packing.
Call Vergo: When the ants start forming neat little lines, marching from your kitchen to who-knows-where, they’re officially on a mission. A small problem can quickly become an infestation, and that’s when it’s time to give us a call or head to our Ant Control information page.
Scenario 2: Rodent Rumble
DIY Hero Moment: Spot a single mouse scurrying around? You can try humane traps, seal up entry points, and make your house as unattractive to rodents as possible.
Call Vergo: Hear scratching in the walls? See multiple droppings in several rooms? Or worse, spot more than one rodent? This is when mice or rats have set up camp in your home. Rodents multiply fast, so it’s time for a professional intervention before they outnumber you!
Scenario 3: Wasps at War
DIY Hero Moment: If there’s a small wasp nest in a rarely-used corner of your shed or garden, you could cautiously remove it yourself with the right protective gear.
Call Vergo: If wasps have taken over a high-traffic area or built a sizeable nest near your windows or doors, safety becomes a priority. Don’t risk stings and swarming—call us, and we’ll handle the removal quickly and safely.
Scenario 4: Mystery Bites
DIY Hero Moment: Sometimes, a single itchy bump can just be a random occurrence—an adventurous mosquito that slipped through the window.
Call Vergo: Waking up covered in bites? You may have bed bugs or fleas lurking. Bed bug infestations can get out of control rapidly, and tackling them yourself can be a losing battle. This is a job for the pros!
We all love the satisfaction of fixing things ourselves, but pests can be tricky, sneaky, and resilient. When in doubt, it’s better to be safe than sorry—and Vergo Pest Management is always here to help when the situation starts to get out of hand!
