Call Your Portland Pest Control Now! Carpenter ants are among the largest of their kind with maximum sizes of up to a half-inch for the workers and an inch for the winged queen ants. These ants usually have black or red-and-black colorations for the workers. To the untrained eye, carpenter ants are like termites but there are significant differences in appearance and damage to manmade structures. Carpenter ants have dark-colored bodies with narrow waists coupled with bent antennae and front wings longer than the hind wings. Termites have light-colored bodies with no waist constriction coupled with straight antennae and equal-length wings. Carpenter ants live in moist wood but do not actually eat it. Termites, in contrast, eat the wood in manmade structures and in forests. Like all ants, carpenter ants live in highly structured societies complete with castes including workers, males and queens. Such structure is necessary for the colonies to survive and thrive. Carpenters do not eat wood but instead remove wood to create their tunnels and galleries. In general, these social insects prefer sources of sugar and protein. These include insects, both living and dead, as well as meats, honey, sugar and syrup in indoor areas.

DETROIT, MI - Pest control company Orkin has releases tis annual list of the 50 most bed bug-ridden cities, and Detroit takes the number two spot, behind Chicago

While an apparent proliferation of bed bugs is bad for those of us that find them in our homes, it has been a boon for Orkin's parent company, Rollins: The company said it saw a 33 percent increase in its bed bug eradication business last year.

Detroit moved up one spot from third place on Orkins annual list of the worst infested cities, which can be seen below.

Bed bugs thrive on human blood. Their infestation can result in rashes or allergic reactions.

People often associate them with bedrooms, no doubt because of their name, but they can be found in any part of the house, and sanitation or a lack thereof has nothing to do with their arrival.

"Education and prevention are key," Orkins in-house entomologist and Technical Services Director Ron Harrison , Ph.D, said in a release. "Inspect your bedroom regularly, and be cautious when traveling. Adult bed bugs resemble apple seeds in size and color, while newly-hatched babies can be about the size of a pinhead and pale in color. Check mattress seams, sheets and furniture, behind baseboards, electrical outlet plates and picture frames."

The top ten worst cities for bed bugs, according to Orkin:

1. Chicago (+1)

2. Detroit (+1)

3. Los Angeles (+2)

Special bed bug offer for new customers

Southport, Connecticut (PRWEB) January 17, 2013

With so many people coming back from holiday travel we find that insects unfortunately traveled home with them especially bed bugs from hotels says Kenny Vayda, President of EliminateEm Pest Control Services. Bed bugs can make their way into suitcases and clothing. Travelers often set their suitcases up on the bed in a hotel room, sleep in the bed, then set their clothes back in the suitcase to travel home while also bringing home bed bugs. Most hotels do their very best to get rid of bed bugs and monitor their existence, however they are difficult to get rid of and usually require an experienced exterminator who specializes in bed bug removal says Vayda.

EliminateEm Pest Control Services is available in Connecticut, New York, and Massachusetts. The exterminators at EliminateEm specialize in the removal of bed bugs, mice, rodents, squirrels, flying squirrels, termites, spiders, carpenter ants, bats, raccoons and wildlife. Their highly trained pest removal technicians are experienced in removing pests and wildlife as well as educating homeowners on how to protect their home from bugs and wildlife infestations.

Pest control management is key to year round protection for any home. In the winter time, some pests can be more dormant than others, and having routine pest control maintenance will save homeowners time and money in the years to come. Hiring a pest control service will save aggravation as an exterminator will point out possible trouble spots in a home that could be victim to an infestation. Catching these spots early through regular on-going service is essential. according to Vayda.

EliminateEm Pest Control services is offering $40.00 off plus extended warranty on bed bug treatments for homeowners and renters. The exterminators at Eliminate'Em strongly suggest a thorough inspection after the recent holiday travel season. Whether a homeowner has traveled or not, a bed bug inspection is recommended especially if the homeowner had out of town guests staying with them. These out of town guests may be a bed bug carrier and may have brought bed bugs with them.

Bed bugs are difficult to see. They are about 1/4 to 5/8 inch long, brown reddish in color, an oval shape and do not have wings. Bed bugs are a small parasitic insect that are most active at night and live close to their food source. They normally feed at night on warm blooded animals including humans. Bedbug bites are a nuisance and can be found on the human skin. The bed bug exterminators at Eliminate'Em Pest Control Services recommend that homeowners hire a professional extermination service to remove bed bugs and ensure the home is properly treated and under warranty. Bed Bugs can populate rather quickly so the EliminateEm bed bug exterminators recommend homeowners act quickly to exterminate their home to avoid a total bed bug infestation.

This offer is available for a limited time. For more information on the $40.00 off plus extended warranty for bed bug extermination , or to schedule an exterminator please call 1-866-802-PEST.

Eliminate’Em Pest Control Services Offers $40.00 off Bed Bug Treatments For The New Year

On Tuesday, pest control leader Orkin announced their annual list of the top 50 bed bug cities for 2012 in the United States.

One of the lists biggest jumps was Indianapolis, who moved up 15 spots from last year. The list puts Indy in the number 16 spot nationwide.

This list shows that bed bugs continue to be a problem throughout the U.S., said Orkin entomologist and Technical Services Director Ron Harrison, Ph.D. Based on the diversity of cities on the list, we all need to be very cautios when we travel whether it is business or pleasure, or to visit family, friends or vacation. We need to be vigilant wherever we are and take the proper precautions.

Bed bugs can be easily transmitted in public spaces such as hospitals, movie theatres, planes, gyms and hotels. According to Orkins parent company, Rollins, there was a 32 percent increase in bed bug business last year.

Orkin has three tips to help protect yourself:

1. Know the facts. Its important to know what to look for with bedbugs. According to Dr. Harrison, Adult bed bugs resemble apple seeds in size and color, while newly-hatched babies can be about the size of a pinhead and pale in color. Check mattress seams, sheets and furniture, behind baseboards, electrical outlet plates and picture frames.

2. Prevention, prevention, prevention. Once bed bugs are in your home, exterminating them can be an expensive, timely, and complicated process. Using preventative products, like a treated mattress pad, is an easyway to keep your home and family safe.

3. Be smart about travel. New research from the University of Minnesota suggests that bed bugs are attracted to dirty clothes, so carry an airtight bag in your luggage and seal your dirty clothes in it as you travel. Check out the city or hotel where you will be traveling on sites like the Bed Bug Registry(@bedbugregistry on Twitter; they also have an iPhone app)

With a New Year comes a new selection of palettes from interior decorators to help your home interior be more vibrant and bold. Local Michigan painter provides tips on what this years hottest trends will be.

Sterling Heights, MI (PRWEB) January 16, 2013

This year there are plenty of new color palettes available from painting companies. Last year was a year of bold colors. The colors from this year tend to be a bit more somber. When combined with the right colors, though, these can really pop. Combining blues and yellows and greens, for example can make a truly stylish and unique design inside your home.

Over all, Michigan painting contractors are seeing a lot of demand for the primary colors this yearred, blue, and yellow. Red is a bold color that can be romantic, especially when the lights are turned low and shadows play against the red hues. At the same time, red can help to enhance energy and emotion in a room, providing a quaint, rich feeling in the rooms where that is the primary color. Reds must be balanced out, however, and this is most often done with much lighter colors, such as a stark white.

Blue colors in paint this year have taken a turn toward lighter hues such as Stratton Blue, Frank Blue, Calypso, or Waterfall. These help promote a calming energy in the room. They also provide a more open or spacious feel. With yellow tones, both bright and more toned down hues are popular, but they are balancedboth with lighter and darker colors. These tend to promote positive feelings and energy within the room, and are popular partially because of how many different color combinations they will work with.
