There are different types of pests and usually homeowners would be concerned about these pests. Although not all household pests are harmful, they are an annoyance and most people wouldn’t enjoy the idea of having pests in their home. Still, this doesn’t change the fact that there are pests that pose dangers. They bring danger to health or our properties. Let’s take a look at the 2 most dangerous household pests you need to be wary of.


White Ants or Termites


Termites are interesting creatures. Termites may not pose danger to humans but they definitely pose danger to homes and infrastructures. Yes, they have mandibles but they don’t use it against people. They don’t spread dangerous bacteria and viruses that cause diseases. What they can do is eat wood and plant base materials and reduce homes and buildings in to rubble.


The appetite of a single termite is small however termites live together in a colony that may number from ten thousands to hundreds of thousands. Thus, the entire colony ends up consuming lots of wood. If left unchecked, a colony of termites would level down a small house in just a few months. If there are termites present, you would then need to call Bellflower rodent control.


Rats and Mice


Mice and rats are highly dangerous. They would have no difficulty getting inside our homes thanks to their abilities. They are silent, can climb easily and easily fit in anywhere. Inside our house, these rodents will chew anything - wires, cement, cardboards, wood, rugs, carpets, etc. Hence making them hazardous not just to our belongings but also to our homes.


The biggest threat these pests bring is the health risks they have. Mice and also mice are unsanitary creatures. They carry germs that can cause various sicknesses.
