Things to Watch Out for When Hiring an Exterminator.

We want you to be informed when you hire an exterminator this year.  Eventually, people in the Quincy and Hannibal area will probably need one.  We want you to know the pitfalls that are possible with some pest control companies.  These are not necessarily problems confined to Great River Country, but rather things that have occurred nationwide.

A few things to be wary of –

1.  Many exterminators DO NOT guarantee their work.
2.  Beware of any report that you receive from a home bug inspector hired by the seller.
3.  If they damage something…they won’t pay for it.
4.  You think that ants are hard to get rid of…secretly so do they!
5.  Is the person in your home a qualified professional?

These and many other incidents can be detrimental to your experience.  Don’t take chances!  Please give us a call at Double G Pest Control.  If you hire us for all of your Quincy and Hannibal area pest control needs, we know that you will stick with us.  Put our two decades plus of experience to the test by calling (217) 440-2847.

What do Ants do in the Winter?

Have you seen more of those tiny, obnoxious creatures in your Quincy area home this winter?
Because ants are fewer and further between this time of year, we may get a false sense of security.  But where do ants go to survive the winter and why do some homes see ant problems in wintertime?

Most ants have consumed mass quantities of food in the fall, then slow down to a crawl in the winter, but DON’T disappear.  Carpenter ants specifically, tend to build nests in warm above-ground cavities.  Believe it or not, they could be doing thousands of dollars of damage while they are foraging and nesting!

Don’t get caught thinking that winter weather does not demand our constant vigilance.  They may be hanging out in damp, unused areas of your home around decaying wood.  Double G Pest Control to the rescue!  Double G is Quincy and Hannibal area’s year around ant control experts.  Give them a call today at (217) 440-2847.
