Sometimes Boca Raton Pest Control can be a full time job. Pests invade the home and no matter what you do you can’t get rid of them. These things cover a variety of species including insects, rodents and even some neighborhood pets. Of course, the neighbor’s pet may be a little more difficult to deal with since you obviously don’t want them exterminated, but the others are a little easier situation given the right equipment and supplies.
However, easier is a relative term because some of these pests are extremely difficult to eradicate. Take for example, the termite. These extremely social insects live in colonies which can number in the millions. Like ants and other social insects, the termites divide their work amongst various members of specific groups and their primary purpose seems to be the care and feeding of their young. The main food of the termite colony is typically dead plant material such as wood pulp and leaf matter. It may be interesting to note that only ten percent of the more than four thousand estimated species are actually classified as pests. However, that ten percent can do a lot of economical damage to homes, buildings and various crops. Of the several castes in the termite colony, the worker caste is the one which forages for food and they are the one your Pest Control company in Boca Raton will likely find evidence of.
