Common Pests in Gainesville, GA
Pest Control
More on pests in your area
Some of the most pervasive pest issues facing residents of Gainesville, GA, involve species of flies and ants. House flies thrive in the warm weather of the region and make their way inside homes via open doors or torn window screens. They move from room to room, spreading bacteria wherever they land. Flies can also carry several diseases, including dysentery and food poisoning. Argentine ants thrive in the heat, as well. They swarm kitchens looking for sugary foods, fruit, meat, oily foods, and even garbage. The pests sometimes set up nests inside wall voids.
Rats and mice are both abundant in the Gainesville area. These home-invading pests gather in attics, basements, kitchens, and the spaces between walls. Rodent infestations cause significant damage by making holes in walls bigger, contaminating stores of food, and gnawing on electrical wiring. Additionally, rats and mice are filthy. They let their droppings accumulate and can spread many diseases, including leptospirosis, Hantavirus, and plague.
