Extremely professional, courteous, and polite. Great knowledge. Very helpful. … More Armando was excellent. I also loved the communication with the company. It was nice to see reminder emails and texts. Extremely nice to get a text notifying me that they were on the way with a photo of the professional. I would highly recommend.

I was hesitant to have an exterminator because people told me unless you hit … More the spider directly, it was pointless. I had sprayed many times with stuff from the stores and still saw regular activity. I'll tell you what... This is grade A extermination!!!! Mike came out, he was so knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor. Explained everything thoroughly. I had those pest sticky pads out in the garage and they had spiders on them the next morning after being out out. After Mike sprayed, there hasn't been one bug of any kind on it, and that was a week ago! And the pads are right by the opening of the garage door. I've seen dead spiders, which is the only kind of spider I like to see. His stuff works! And now with regular maintenance, I will rest easy knowing my daughter and I are less likely to run into those jerks, especially the recluses! Thanks Mike!

AMAZING customer service. Their appointment management software sends appointment … More reminders and communicates arrival time so I don’t have to call to confirm that they are coming out.

Clover Mite Facts
What Are Clover Mites?
Clover mites are very small – about 1/30 of an inch long. They’re reddish-brown and have two large front legs.
Clover mites do not bite or sting, but they can invade homes in massive numbers. They prefer to congregate on the sunny side of a home or building and can often be observed near window wells outdoors or on window sills indoors.
Female clover mites lay as many as 70 eggs. Once the eggs hatch, they grow from larvae to nymphs to adults within just 30 days. Eggs are laid in the fall and hatch in the spring. The spring adults lay more eggs which hatch in the fall. That’s why you’ll typically see lots of clover mites in early spring and again in fall.
Signs Of Clover Mite Infestation
Clover mite infestation looks like lots of dark red specks on your window sills or near sliding doors or other exterior doors. They’re most often found on windows on the south or southwest sides of a building where there’s the most sunlight.
If they’re smashed, clover mites leave a red smear that can stain walls, drapes, carpets, etc.
Typically, clover mite activity in the home tends to be highest in the late winter and early spring. However, clover mite eggs hatch and grow in spring and again in summer, potentially prolonging an infestation.
How to Prevent Clover Mites
First, get rid of any clover mites you can see in your home. You can simply vacuum them up and then empty the vacuum cleaner contents into a plastic bag and throw it away. Just be careful not to crush the mites because they’ll leave stains.
Second, make sure to seal any gaps, holes or cracks in your home’s foundation and around windows and doors. That will block the mites’ access to your home.
Outside the home, keep grass, plantings and weeds away from your home’s foundation. For best results, leave a strip of bare soil or pea gravel between any vegetation and our home. That will cut off the mites’ food supply and make it more difficult for them to get into your home.
How We Treat for Clover Mites
We start by inspecting your home for signs of clover mites. Then, we’ll recommend a treatment plan based on our findings. Usually this will include both a spring and fall treatment. Typically, clover mite treatment will include both the lawn and the inside and outside perimeters of your home or office. This will get rid of clover mites currently in your home and keep new ones from coming inside. As always our pest control services are contract-free, so you can choose the service frequency that fits your needs and budget.
