Mosquito

The slender elongated body of the adult is covered with scales, as are the veins of the wings. Mosquitoes are also characterized by long fragile-looking legs and elongated piercing mouthparts. The feathery antennae of the male are generally bushier than those of the female. The males, and sometimes the females, feed onΒ nectarΒ and otherΒ plantΒ juices and are known pollinators. In most species, however, the females require theΒ proteinsΒ obtained from aΒ bloodΒ meal in order to mature their eggs. Different species of mosquitoes show preferences and, in many cases, narrow restrictions as to host animals. The females ofΒ Uranotaenia sapphirina, for example, specialize onΒ earthwormsΒ andΒ leeches, while those of a related species,Β Uranotaenia lowii, feast only on the blood ofΒ frogsΒ andΒ toads. Mammals, birds, and reptiles are common hosts for many mosquitoes.

Why Centipedes Invade Piedmont Homes

⚠️ Centipedes are attracted to:
  • Moisture – Leaky pipes, damp basements, humid bathrooms, clogged gutters
  • Food sources – They eat spiders, silverfish, cockroaches, ants, and other insects
  • Cracks and gaps – Foundation cracks, gaps under doors, poorly sealed windows
  • Clutter – Cardboard boxes, stored items, wood piles (hiding spots)
  • Warm, humid Oklahoma summers – Perfect conditions for centipede activity

Our Centipede Control Process

Step 1: Free Inspection We inspect your Piedmont home – basements, crawlspaces, bathrooms, foundation, and landscaping – to identify centipede activity and entry points. Step 2: Moisture & Habitat Assessment We identify moisture issues and harborage areas that attract centipedes (leaky pipes, standing water, clutter, wood piles). Step 3: Exterior Barrier Treatment We apply a professional-grade liquid barrier around your foundation, door thresholds, windows, and other entry points. This kills centipedes on contact and repels new invaders. Step 4: Interior Spot Treatment We treat baseboards, corners, crawlspaces, basements, and other hiding spots with targeted treatments (safe for homes with children and pets). Step 5: Ongoing Prevention We recommend quarterly exterior treatments to maintain protection, especially during spring and summer peak seasons. πŸ“ž Call (405) 584-6244 for your free centipede control estimate in Piedmont

  • Millipede: Two pairs of legs per segment, slow-moving, does not bite, eats decaying plant matter. Rounded body. Nuisance pest only.
