With that title, you may think I’m talking about the kids. This time, I’m not.  I’m not even talking about the Halloween kids that will be knocking at my door shortly!    Instead,  I’m talking about real pest control.  I’ll be honest — this isn’t something I even thought about until I owned a home.  When we lived in a Aurora, we had a huge pest problem.  We didn’t need termite control or anything like that.  Instead, we kept getting those worm looking bugs.  They covered our basement, and they were just gross.  Here, we just have a box elder issue.  Since they don’t really hurt anything, we just suck it up at this point.  Since we have a snake in the yard (garner snake that is), we don’t need a mice exterminator.  He does it just fine.

Now, my sister in law has a huge bee problem at her house.  She called a company like Terminix (it could have been them for all I know) to come out and spray.  The bees at her house would dive bomb you if you were outside.  Come to find out, the prior owners to their house made wine in their garage, and they think that the bees keep coming back for that.

What kind of pests do you find in your house?  How do you get rid of them?
