While our services cover a wide range of pests,
insects and other creatures, following is some handy information with
regards to some of the most common menaces.
Ants and Ant Control
• Ants live in colonies, not singly.
• Most ant species invade structure from outside. Therefore
exclusionary practices and exterior pest management are key.
• Many ant species are most active at Night. Therefore early evening
inspections help locate ant nests and active trails.
• Interestingly Ants use pheromone trails to travel back and forth
from nests to food and water source.
• Rain gutters and reefs serve as excellent ant trail and nesting
sites.
• Ants are sensitive to temperature changes and weather conditions.
Extremely hot and dry weather forces ants to move indoor.
• If you eliminate one ant colony , another colony of the same or a
different species can rapidly occupy the vacant space.
• Large trees harbor several ants nests as well as several different
species.
• If you plug each of the holes where ants are entering structures,
it will help keep ants from re-entering.
• Rain gutters and roofs serve as excellent ant trail and nesting
sites.
• Water sources are critical for ant survival .thorough inspection
of all water sources around the house is a must.
Rats
The Rat, the nocturnal , or the more religiously known as Mooshak ,
the chosen mode of carrier of Lord Ganesha and a messenger of all
our wishes is worshipped in all over India. It is such a revered
animal that a temple in Rajasthan is devoted to the worship of the
Rat. But this devout animal poses a huge threat to the very economy
of community health of our country.
Rats are bright; they are agile and are very competent in finding
their source of survival. They breed very fast and young ones reach
sexual maturity as early as three months. This can mean an alarming
population growth and a harsh reality directed towards an epidemic.
They thrive in gutters, garbage bins and at places where there is
clutter of human and industrial waste. They have an innate ability
to compress themselves out and squeeze through the smallest of
openings. Even with the closed doors, it is easier for them to enter
a kitchen stealthily and contaminate the utensils and eatables. We
all know that rats are responsible for spreading dreaded diseases
like Plague and Murine Typhus mainly by the parasites they contain,
their droppings, urine and hair. People also have major issue of
being bitten by rats in the night during sleeping.
Interestingly, age-old technique of wiping out rates using
Rat-trap/cage has also become ineffective as this smart creature has
mastered the technique of separating the contents in the trap
without being caught.
Ever since then, science has progressed and our scientists have
successfully invented effective pesticides to remove the most robust
of rats from our society.

Mosquito Control
• How fast can mosquitoes fly?
Depending upon the species, mosquitoes can fly at
about 1 to 1.5 miles per hour.
Mosquito species preferring to breed around the
house, like the Asian Tiger Mosquito, have limited flight ranges of
about 300 feet. Most species have flight ranges of 1-3 miles. When
caught up in updrafts that direct them into winds high above the ground,
mosquitoes can be carried great distances.
• How much blood Mosquito take in a
meal?
When feeding to repletion, mosquitoes imbibe
anywhere from 0.001 to 0.01 milliliter.
• Why do mosquitoes feed on blood?
Female mosquitoes imbibe blood so that their eggs
can mature prior to laying. It serves no nourishment fuaction. Males do
not take blood meals at all. In order to obtain energy, both male and
female mosquitoes feed upon plant nectars - much in the same manner as
honeybees.
Lifespan vary by species. Most adult female
mosquitoes live 2-3 weeks. Some species that over-winter in garages,
culverts and attics can live as long as 6 months.
• How high do mosquitoes fly7
In general, mosquitoes that bite humans prefer to
fly at heights of less than 25 ft. Asian Tiger Mosquitoes have been
found breeding in treeholes over 40 feet above ground. In Singapore,
they have been found in apartments 21 stories above ground. Mosquitoes
have been found breeding up to 8,000 feet in the Himalayas and 2000 feet
underground in mines in India.
• Can mosquitoes transmit AIDS
Many studies have been conducted on this issue
worldwide. To our knowledge, there has never been a successful transfer
of the virus from an infected source to another host by blood-feeding
insects under experimental conditions. The experts have concluded that
the insects are not capable of such transmission. Many biological
reasons would lead one to this same conclusion, but the extensive
experimental studies are the most powerful evidence for the conclusion.
