May Is Lyme Disease Awareness Month
The vast Minnesota wilderness is one of the reasons so many choose this state as their home. Living in Minnesota is like being one with nature. You can find a bounty of natural beauty just a short distance from your home. From lakes to wildlife, Minnesota has everything that makes our world special. However, nature also includes ticks and the bacteria they may or may not be carrying. May is National Lyme Disease Awareness Month, and EcoTech wants you to enjoy the outdoors safely this summer.
Winter often provides a respite from the sweltering summer heat, but not every irritation disappears with it. That includes pests. Many homeowners and business managers assume they won’t need to deal with common house bugs during winter since there won’t be mosquitoes around in December. But did you know that many types of pests remain active throughout wintertime? According to Pest World, cockroaches can survive below-freezing temperatures and multiple kinds of rodents will invade over 20 million residences annually
It is common knowledge that Minnesota deals with extreme dips in the temperatures in the winter months (dropping from a summer average of 75oF to a bone-chilling average of 12oF in the peak of winter). It’s not only the humans that get cold and seek warmth during this season, but pests are also on the hunt for warmth. Unfortunately, that warmth is, more often than not, found in your homes and businesses.
Apartments are just as susceptible to pest infestations as single-family dwellings. Apartment buildings pose additional challenges, in that there are many ‘nooks and crannies,’ many people’s schedules to balance with gaining access to treat issues and keeping a handle on the many things that attract insects. Fortunately, the professional pest control management team at EcoTech is experienced with handling large-scale commercial properties and apartment dwellings. We have many years experience and will keep your tenant buildings bug and pest free!
As COVID-19 makes another surge, we find ourselves approaching the three-year anniversary of living with the pandemic. While we may have been forced to accept changes in our daily lives, we have also had to find ways to continue to get things done during this extraordinary time. We need to get groceries, go to doctors’ appointments, and complete necessary repairs on our houses and cars. Eco Tech has been working
