Occasional Invaders

Occasional Invaders

Get the Janus Advantage Over Pests

The name sounds menacing, but it aptly describes the lesser-seen garden variety of sporadic household pests like earwigsstinkbugs, and crickets that occasionally invade homes from time to time.  Just the same, we have treatment solutions ready and waiting—let’s do this!

Okay, Why?

Occasional invaders are active year-round and spend the majority of their time outdoors. As temperatures drop and seasonal rains return, some pests seek shelter by overwintering within homes and other structures. Homeowners tend to take notice ever more frequently, starting in autumn.

Help prevent pest incursion with outdoor lighting:

Some types of outdoor lighting attract insects more than others. The incandescent light bulb has the highest level of attraction–followed by compact fluorescent, halogen, LED cool-color, and finally, LED warm-color having the lowest overall pest attraction rating.

Push-pull for commercial application

Use sodium-vapor bulbs (Na) to push away (repel) from the structure and mercury-vapor bulbs (Hg) to pull away (attract) from the structure.

Pest Management is a Cooperative Partnership

Janus Pest Management uses many tools to suppress pests to an activity threshold level appropriate for the setting–sometimes, zero. Integrated Pest Management (IPM)  is one such tool, best described as a  strategy that promotes reduced-risk pest management through a combination of elements: cultural, physical, biological, and chemical. In short, IPM’s goal is to prevent pests from reaching economically or aesthetically damaging levels with the least risk to people, animals, and the environment. Pest Management is a cooperative partnership; together, we’ll get the job done. Below you find some DIY IPM tips to help reduce pest pressures around structures.

DIY-IPM

Many pest incursions can be minimized with a little DIY-integrated pest management (IPM) notably, pest exclusion and habitat modification. Examples: • Seal and close off any cracks or holes to eliminate outside entry • Eliminate excess moisture • Reduce yard clutter • Cull ripe garden-fall • Use LED outdoor lighting • Trim tree branches and shrubbery away from the house • Sweep down all cobwebs  • Install roof and dryer vent guards

Select the best fit with our Pest/Maintenance Match Tool. 

Match target pest with residential service frequency

Use this tool to match the target pest with the suggested service frequency.

  1. Service frequency is generally greater than what is typically needed to maintain the specified pest issue. Example: ( 10 > 5 )
  2. Service frequency is generally less than what is typically needed to maintain the specified pest issue.  Example: ( 5 < 10 )
  3. Service frequency is generally equal to what is typically needed to maintain the specified pest issue. Example: ( 10 = 10 )
  4. ≥ Service frequency is generally greater than or equal to what is typically needed to maintain the specified pest issue.
  5. ≤ Service frequency is generally less than or equal to what is typically needed to maintain the specified pest issue.
Monthly: MTH
Every-Other-Month: EOM
Quarterly: QTLY
Semi-Annual: S/A
Annual: ANNU
