Sumter Pests

Sumter, South Carolina has many of the same pests that infest the Florence, Charleston, Columbia, and Clarendon County areas, so you may find common things like ants, fleas, roaches, and spiders.

Ants can be frustrating because they are so small and can be found in colonies. Ants can find their way into your home or building through the smallest cracks and once they find a source of food (usually in a kitchen or pantry), they’ll alert other ants using pheromones. It can be difficult to get rid of ants on your own, so trust our Sumter pest control experts to get the job done.

Fleas are often brought inside by outdoor pets, but can just as easily hitch a ride on your pant leg and invade your home. Once inside, fleas can jump great distances and spread themselves around your home. And, since they’re so tiny, they’re difficult to detect. Fleas can affect both humans and animals and leave itchy red bumps on the skin.

Roaches are some of the most stubborn pests to eliminate, since they have a natural defense to many insecticides. They can get into your home or building through cracks, sewers, vents, and more and once inside, they can reproduce quickly, so it’s important to contact our Sumter pest control experts if you think you have a roach infestation.

Spiders love dark places, which makes corners, behind furniture, basements, and attics perfect for spider infestations. If the spiders in your home or building reproduce, one egg sac could yield up to 3,000 baby spiders (depending on the species). South Carolinians are also warned to watch for the South’s infamous Black Widow spider.

If you’ve found any of these pests in your living area, contact our Sumter pest control professionals. We’ll work quickly to eliminate your problem and get you back to living a pest-free life.
