BARRINGTON, RI PEST CONTROL

Termite Control Barrington

Although Big Blue Bug Solutions is well known due to the massive termite on top of the building, we understand the damage termites cause and have developed termite control programs to get rid of termites effectively.  Termites cause billions of dollars in damage on an annual basis and are the most destructive pest in Barrington. They are most dangerous because of their ability to go unnoticed while eating away at the structure of a building from the inside out. There are several signs of termite activity to watch for, including:

• Mud tubes along foundation

• Warped or sagging windows and floors

• Discarded wings or swarming termites

• Damaged wood that is hollowed out along the grain

If you have noticed any of these signs of termite activity around your Barrington home or business, it is important to contact a professional termite exterminator immediately.  At Big Blue Bug Solutions, we offer both residential commercial termite control programs designed to eliminate termites.

How To Keep Mosquitoes & Ticks Off Your Barrington Lawn

Mosquitoes and ticks are common summer pests, becoming active when it's warm and infesting Barrington lawns for shade and moisture. They can spread various illnesses to residents, making them more than nuisances.

Most mosquitoes are harmless, with few causing medical problems. Ticks can be more troublesome because they all carry diseases. While mosquitoes bite and fly away, ticks hitch rides into homes on dogs or cats and bite people and pets when they get inside.

These pests use the shade in yards to shield themselves from the sun and require moisture to survive, so they infest yards with tall grass and standing water. Knowing these facts, there are ways to avoid mosquito and tick infestations. Some mosquito and tick prevention tips for your Barrington lawn include:

• Avoid standing water
• Reduce vegetation
• Mow your grass regularly
• Install fencing around your property

While preventing mosquitoes and ticks from your yard is the best way to avoid bites, you’ll need professional help to find and remove them on your property. At Big Blue Bug Solutions, we’ll identify the mosquitoes and ticks in your yard and combine control products to reduce their numbers by 90%. 

We can provide one-time treatments for your special event or recurring services, and we treat between May and October when these pests are most active. Call us today to get mosquitoes and ticks off your Barrington lawn.

How Insulation Can Stop Pest Problems In Barrington

Insulation is essential for buildings, lining attics and walls. This material prevents air from entering or escaping your home, improving the effectiveness of your heating and cooling. Protecting your HVAC system is the primary purpose of insulation, but there are other benefits.

While some pests enter buildings through cracks or gaps in your exterior, others access your home through your roof. Regardless of how they enter, they tear through your insulation to reach your interior. Strong insulation provides extra security for your home or business.

TAP (Thermal Acoustical Pest Control) insulation is the most effective product to stop pests from invading your home. The installation includes strong paper and borate that attaches to potential intruders. They ingest the material, which interrupts the digestion process and causes them to starve. In addition to eliminating pests, installing TAP insulation provides other benefits for your building, including:

• Reduces energy bills
• Prevents sound from entering
• Minimizes your carbon footprint

Big Blue Bug Solutions can provide TAP insulation installation for your home, enabling you to experience these benefits. While installing your insulation, we can check for other pests. Call us to gain the benefits of TAP insulation in your Barrington home.

Who To Call For Wildlife Problems In Barrington

Various wild animals live near Barrington residents, invading properties for food, water, or shelter. But they might also infest if urban development or predators push them from their natural habitat. Structures that provide food, water, and safety are the ideal places for them to reside.

The most common types of wildlife around Barrington properties are raccoons, opossums, and skunks. These species have different habits but can cause similar problems for residents. Some of the issues these pests can cause on your Barrington property include the following:

• Damage your property
• Spread illnesses to people
• Carry other animals onto your property

Removing food and water from outside and constructing a fence around your property can help to prevent infestations, but they still might look to enter your home for safety. When these pests get into your yard, wildlife control professionals can help.

At Big Blue Bug Solutions, we’ll inspect your property to identify the intruders. Every infestation is unique, so we customize our treatments for your situation. Methods we might use include live trapping and exclusion, catch-and-release, and habitat modification.

Wild animals can be problematic when they invade Barrington yards. Contact us to get wildlife away from your property.

How To Prevent Bed Bugs Getting Into Your Barrington Home

While most pests invade homes through gaps in your exterior, residents carry in bed bugs. They hitch rides by climbing into bags, suitcases, and purses to travel with you, infesting your residence when you get home.

• Keep possessions off of public floors
