Call (209) 563-1650Frequently asked questions
When should I treat for boxelder bugs in Joliet?
Late summer to early fall, before the first cold snaps push adults to shelter. Sealing and an exterior perimeter treatment done ahead of the swarm are far more effective than treating after they are inside.
Why do lady beetles swarm my house in October?
Asian lady beetles seek warm, sheltered spots to overwinter and are drawn to sunny, light-colored walls. They slip in through small gaps and reappear on warm winter days.
Do fall invaders damage a home?
Boxelder bugs, lady beetles and stink bugs do not damage the structure or breed indoors, but they stain surfaces, are a nuisance in large numbers, and return each year until entry points are sealed.
