Pest Information

• 
  German Cockroach
  German Cockroaches: At their largest are no bigger than the size of the average human fingernail. They are light brown in color. They are most common in apartments or homes with adjoining walls with other neighbors. They only infest inside and are usually in the kitchen and bathrooms. They are not seasonal and will remain in the home year round. Usually will take a few visits to get rid of all the German cockroaches.
• 
  American Cockroach
  American Cockroaches: Are much larger than German cockroaches and live outside but occasionally enter the home. They are brown in color.
• 
  Oriental Cockroach
  Oriental Cockroaches: Are a little smaller than American cockroaches and also live outside but occasionally enter the home. They are black in color as adults and have some red color on them when they are younger.
• 
  Bed Bug
  Bed Bugs: Bed bugs have become an increasing problem within the past few years. Bed bugs are easily spread because they will climb onto furniture or someone's clothing and catch a ride to a new home. The best way to prevent from getting bed bugs is to avoid buying used furniture. Carefully inspect any used furniture under any folds in the material and seams of the mattress. If bedbugs have become a problem in your home, the best option is to throw any infested furniture away. Whatever you must keep should be treated with liquid pesticides. We at Agent Pest Control use a combination of 3 chemicals which include a growth regulator chemical, a faster knockdown chemical, and a residual chemical. All are safe to use in the home by a licensed professional and all our work is guaranteed.

• 
  Ant
  Ants: Many varieties of ants exist in the Las Vegas, Henderson and Boulder City areas. Ants almost always nest outside. Exterior perimeter services will help prevent ants from going inside the house. Treating an ant nest is the only way of eliminating the entire ant colony. Ant bait will help but sometimes does not work on certain ants.
• 
  Brown Rat / Mouse
  Rodents: House mice and roof rats. Glue traps and snap traps on the inside will help eliminate mice and rats inside. Bait stations will help control the mice and rats that are on the outside of the structure.
• 
  Pigeon
  Pigeons: We will net off the area of the house the pigeons are nesting. This will prevent the pigeons from nesting on the house and the pigeons will fly away and go to a different house. It is important to remove all pet food from outside as this will draw pigeons to the property. Spikes may also be used to prevent pigeons from roosting on the edges of the house. The pigeons will roost on a house if one of their nests is nearby.
• 
  Desert Scorpion
  Scorpions: We offer night service for scorpions. After a scorpion service, we can show you the actual scorpions we got rid of. Liquid pesticides once dry will not kill scorpions. Therefore we come out at night when the scorpions are active and hunt them using a blacklight so we can see them. They turn a neon green color when the blacklight shines on them. Then we can directly get rid of them. We will also do a perimeter treatment for general pest control at the time of the night scorpion service. An indirect way to get rid of scorpions is to have a regular pest control service during the day which will eliminate the scorpions' food source or they may eat a poisoned insect and also get poisoned themselves.
