Mosquito
Reclaim your summer BBQs with mosquito abatement. Mosquitos are small, flying insects that are hard to see and that you probably won’t feel until they bite you. Mosquitos aren’t just annoying but can also be dangerous. They’re renowned carriers of diseases for humans and parasitic heartworms for pets. Our mosquito control products will allow you to enjoy your yard again and protect your home, family, and pets from mosquitos all summer long.
Rodents
Rodents breed fast and can nest in the smallest of spaces. One errant mouse within the walls of your home can turn into 50 within mere months. Rodents are an incredibly dangerous type of pest to infest your home. Not only do they chew on anything and everything, causing extensive damage to your home, but they’re also carriers of disease. Onyx Lawn & Pest Control offers interior and exterior rodent control services to make your home safe again, including trapping, baiting, and exclusion.
Grasshoppers
Grasshoppers are voracious feeders that are one of the worst pests for your lawn. These pests may be small, but they can consume half their body weight daily. Left unchecked, they can destroy your landscape. With how mobile grasshoppers are, they’re very difficult to control. We use chemical and biological products to stave off a grasshopper invasion. We’ll assess your specific situation to develop the best plan for the species, population, and damage you’re facing.
Stingers/Wasps
Stinging insects pollinate our plants and help control smaller pests, but when they decide that your home should also be their home, they switch from helpful to a threat. The venom in their stings can cause severe allergic reactions, and when they make their nest in a high-traffic area, your chances of getting stung increase exponentially. Stingers and wasps need to be handled with extreme care, so leave your stinger/wasp elimination to the experienced professionals at Onyx Lawn & Pest Control.
Ants
Ants are easy to attract and a nightmare to eliminate. They may be tiny, but they’re incredibly strong and work together in large colonies. The ants you see are only a small portion of the colony, meaning that treating your ant problem yourself is a losing battle. Our highly trained team offers comprehensive solutions for your ant problem, including identifying the species, locating the colony, and implementing the proper treatment so that the ants are gone for good.
Spiders
Most spiders are harmless and live in even the cleanest of homes. They can help you keep other pests away. However, when you have a large number of spiders, they can attract other pests and leave webs all over your home. It can be alarming to find spiders in your home, especially if you don’t know whether or not the breed is harmless or harmful. Our spider control professionals can safely and effectively remove spiders from your home with specialized treatments and maintenance plans.
Cockroaches
Cockroaches may be common, but that doesn’t mean we want them around. They’re ugly, large, fast, and carry several diseases. They can cause respiratory issues and contaminate your food, furniture, fabric, and most surfaces in your home. Cockroaches multiply at alarming rates, and before you know it, the entire house has cockroaches. Onyx Lawn & Pest Control offers comprehensive cockroach elimination services customized to your specific needs to get rid of your roach problem and keep them away for long-lasting results.
