An increase in mosquito population may be in store for Tennessee due to flooding.  Standing water provides the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes.

 Tennesseans should take precautions to protect themselves from West Nile Virus and other diseases transmitted by mosquito bites.  Here are some simple tips to help avoid mosquito bites:

  •  The most likely time for bites is dawn and dusk. If you must be outside during these times, use insect repellent, wear long sleeves, long pants and socks.
  • Eliminate standing water near your home. Even a bottle cap of water is enough for mosquitoes to breed.
  •  Keep windows and doors closed or cover them with screen to prevent entry to your home.

 Mosquito populations in Tennessee are at their peak May through October.

 Ace Exterminating offers mosquito services to help reduce the mosquito population around your home.  Call 615-876-7185 for more details.

The Ants Are Marching…Right Into Our Homes!

Normal 0

Is there anything more frustrating then finding a trail of ants in your home, or worse, your food?  Ants are one of the most annoying pests to invade our space.

Ants are social insects. A nest contains one or more queen ants laying eggs and being card for by worker ants, which can invade households while foraging for food and water. They establish a temporary pheromone trail that helps other ants find the food and water. Killing foraging ants rarely solves and ant problem in homes because the colony remains unaffected. 

The 3 most common ants found in Tennessee are the Odorous House Ant, Pharaoh Ant and Carpenter Ant.
