While our primary insect control services at Bug Busters involve the most common insect types, from various ant types to boxelder bugs, spiders and more, we’re also here to provide pest control and extermination for less common types. There are numerous such varieties, one example of which is the silverfish.

Certainly not one of the most common pests in Utah, and not really that populous in too many areas of the country, the silverfish may still be an annoyance in certain homes without the proper prevention methods. This two-part blog series will go into everything you need to know about the silverfish pest, from what it is and how to spot it to prevention and removal methods.

In part one of this two-part blog, we went over some basics on how to tell if an occasional pest sighting on your property has given way to a full-blown pest infestation.

In part one of this two-part blog series, we went over some of the non-bed locations where you might commonly locate bed bugs. Despite their name, it’s indeed possible for bed bugs to appear in other locations – and because they’re unexpected here, they may cause more issues than they would in typical mattress areas.

At Bug Busters, we’re happy to offer a variety of pest control and exterminator services in both residential and commercial settings, including for any area where bed bugs may have begun to infest. And while most of part one focused around home non-bed areas, did you realize bed bugs might even show up in your office space? Here are a few of the areas they …

If you paid attention only to their name, one would assume bedbugs are a pest that’s confined purely to beds, mattresses and related areas. Is this actually the reality regarding these at-times frustrating pests?

At Bug Busters, we’re here to answer this question with a firm “no.” While bedbugs do indeed tend to form in or around bed spaces, their true preference is simply to be in any habitat that’s surrounded by humans and has the right environmental characteristics. Our bedbug identification and extermination services, part of our overall pest control program, include this knowledge and may cover areas of your home beyond beds – part one of our two-part blog will dig into several additional home areas where …

In addition, we’re happy to provide tips and expertise to homeowners just looking for a few DIY protection themes – and we’ll step in and offer our own services the …

While many insect types you might notice in or around your property are considered pests that pose potential negative outcomes, there are also several insects that, as part of the natural ecosystem, actually help control the population of common pests. There are even a few particular species some might consider “pests” themselves that actually bring their own extermination benefits for other, more bothersome insects – in fact, some researchers have even attempted to develop specific pest control and related techniques based on insects that perform their own natural forms of extermination.

At Bug Busters, while we certainly won’t go so far as to recommend this sort of testing on your property, we do think it pays for homeowners to be …
