Imported fire ants are native to Brazil and present a serious pest problem from the southern United States to Virginia, including our service areas of Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Charlotte and Wilmington, NC. This ant gets its name from its ability to inflict painful stings. Imported fire ants vary in size from 1/16 to1/4 inches long. They have a reddish-brown head and thorax with a dark brown abdomen. The pedicel or “waist” of the imported fire ant consists of 2 segments. Their preferred nesting sites are areas where soil has been disturbed. Mounds are built of soil and are seldom larger than 18 inches in diameter. When a mound is disturbed, the ants emerge aggressively to bite and sting the intruder. A white pustule usually appears the next day at the site of the sting. The sting that they inflict can be of serious concern since about 2% of the population of the US is at risk of anaphylactic shock. This species is steadily moving northward.
Spiders
“We switched to Economy after being dissatisfied with another company. We are very pleased with service. No more spiders and they are always punctual and polite!”
Termites
Termites cause over 5 billion dollars worth of damage a year. Another 2.2 billion is spent on the control of termites each year. They will invade any structure from the Statue of Liberty to the White House to your house. No structure is immune. A quality pest prevention specialist is your best guarantee, whether you live in Raleigh, Charlotte, Wilmington or a surrounding area.
Bed Bugs
It is important to recognize the signs of a bed bug infestation. The bed bug gets its name from its close association with humans and their beds. Bed bugs were introduced to the US by the early colonists. It was thought after World War II that bed bugs were eradicated in the US. In recent years, the numbers of incidents of people being bitten by bed bugs has increased exponentially in Raleigh, Charlotte, Wilmington and across the country.
Fleas
If you’ve had fleas in your home before, you know what a persistent problem these insects can be. Getting rid of fleas requires the help of a trained professional, like the flea control specialists at Economy Exterminators in Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Charlotte, and Wilmington areas.
Cockroaches
What do German cockroaches look like and where do you see them? Usually found in the kitchen area, this pest is small, 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch in length, and medium yellowish-brown. German roaches can be distinguished from other roaches by two dark parallel stripes on the anterior, dorsal portion of the thorax.
