Spiders may not technically be insects, but they’re one of the most feared household pests. During peak seasons, they’re among the top reasons homeowners call for pest control. Whether it's their sudden appearances or the webs they leave behind, spiders make many people feel uneasy and understandably so.
Take Action Before It’s Too Late
The smartest approach to pest control is prevention especially when it comes to spiders. Rather than waiting for a serious infestation, early treatment can stop them before they settle in. Being proactive means fewer risks, less stress, and a safer living environment.

Pest control basics
Termites live in highly organized colonies that can number in the millions especially subterranean species. These colonies operate around the clock, with specific groups handling tunneling, defense, and reproduction. While some dig and forage, others protect the nest or leave to form new colonies. Their nonstop activity means damage can spread quickly if not addressed early.
Although the term "white ant" is commonly used, it’s a misleading nickname for termites. They may look like ants due to their pale color and body shape, but termites are actually closer relatives to cockroaches. Despite the nickname, their behavior, diet, and biology are entirely different from true ants.
Termites consume cellulose a substance found in wood, paper, and cardboard. In homes, they often target structural wood, furniture, skirting boards, and door frames. They typically eat timber from the inside out, making infestations hard to detect until significant damage has occurred.
The duration of termite treatments varies depending on the method used, soil type, and moisture levels. Many treatments remain active for several years, but annual inspections are crucial to ensure long-term protection and catch any new activity early.
If you notice signs of termites like hollow wood, mud tubes, or shed wings avoid disturbing them. Instead, contact a licensed pest control provider like One Click Pest Control Pest immediately. A professional inspection following national standards will help confirm the issue and determine the best course of action.
