Here in Michigan, boxelder bugs seem to be a household pet, with how common they are in people’s homes. By the end of fall, they look for places to hibernate, which becomes your home! Unlike other pests that die off in the winter, boxelder bugs search for warm places to stow away until spring. As they pose no major threat and typically do not damage homes, plants, and animals, their presence can be frustrating, along with their fecal matter that can stain surfaces. Fun fact: up to a thousand boxelder bugs can be dormant in your home without you even knowing. So, if you’re dealing with an infestation at home, the experts at Four Seasons Exterminating can help!
Why is frequent pest treatment by a local professional necessary?
Here are the top four explanations:
1. Disrupt breeding cycles:
Interrupting undesirable bugs’ reproductive cycles is one of the most excellent strategies to prevent them from entering your house. One of the key advantages of continuing pest treatment is the disruption of breeding cycles. If you take a reactive stance and request treatment only when you see pests, you’re promoting the breeding of additional pests and allowing bugs to deposit their eggs. As a result, your pest issue might get worse over time.
2. Establish and maintain a protective barrier:
Using tested pest control materials, a protective barrier is built up around your property during a single pest control treatment. However, this defense weakens with time, letting bugs walk into your house, where they start reproducing and spreading. If you select a recurring pest control program, each visit reinforces the barrier that prevents pests from entering your house.
3. Customize treatment to the season:
Michigan has seasons, and different bugs have their seasons. Adjusting pest control methods to a particular season and the pests and environmental factors it may bring is crucial. The advantages of continuous pest management include tailored treatment that considers the season’s particulars, the bugs, and the activity that is common during that season.
4. Receive peace of mind:
Bugs and other pests should never be a concern in your house. You have peace of mind when you choose monthly, quarterly, or bi-monthly pest control service. You also see outcomes. There is nothing better than a professional consistently and proactively monitoring for indicators of new pests and taking care of pest concerns before they become disasters—therefore, continual pest management is required.

Yes! For roughly 24 hours, you will see foraging wasps return to their nest, which is no longer there. They may be irritated, so we recommend staying away from this area until there are no more stinging insects. To schedule your wasp nest removal, please call 989-352-7777 today!
Yes, but it’s not something we recommend. It takes special skills to remove stinging insects safely. Hornets and yellow jackets are far more challenging (and dangerous) to remove than paper wasps. So if you decide to treat a nest on your own, please proceed with caution. Follow standard safety protocols like treating the nest at night and wearing a wasp suit sealed at the wrists, ankles, and collar.
We know how scary stumbling upon a wasp nest is. This is especially true if you or a loved one are allergic to wasp stings. So we do our best to remove wasp nests from homes in our service area within 24 hours. If you’re dealing with hornets, yellow jackets, paper wasps, or any other stinging insects, please give us a call at 989-352-7777 today!
