  • Millipedes in Boise, ID

    Millipedes can be found just about anywhere. They thrive inside and outside — in cold environments and hot ones. And they are located in nearly every corner of the planet, including Idaho. 

    In Idaho, you can find several types of millipedes. The most common species in Idaho include:

    • American giant millipede. This is one of the larger millipedes found in North America, including Idaho. It can grow up to 4 inches long and has a dark, cylindrical body.
    • Yellow-spotted millipede. Also known as the almond-scented millipede, this species is identifiable by its black body and yellow spots. It emits a cyanide compound as a defense mechanism.
    • Greenhouse millipede. This species is often found in greenhouses and gardens. It is relatively small, usually around 1 inch in length, and has a brown or reddish-brown color.
    • European millipedes. These are small to medium-sized millipedes that are often introduced species. They have a cylindrical body and are usually dark brown or black.
    • American millipedes. These millipedes are native to North America and are commonly found in various habitats. They tend to have a cylindrical body with a more uniform color, typically brown or black.
    • Flat-backed millipedes. These millipedes are characterized by their flattened body segments and can be quite colorful, often with bright warning colors.

  • How do I get rid of Boxelder Bugs?
    Boxelder bugs seem to invade every home in the fall. This is because they are trying to escape the cold and cling to the last couple of months they have left. So, to keep them out of your home you are going to need to block entraces. That means repairing screen doors and sealing up cracks in your foundation.
  • Why do I need a pest service in the winter?
    A lot of people think that bugs and other pests die during the winter but this isn't true. Pests act like snowbirds that drive down to St. George, Utah, or Pheonix, Arizona in the winter — they hate the cold. But instead of traveling thousands of miles, they travel into your walls. If an infestation is left all winter, it can create a huge problem in spring once the weather starts to warm up.
  • How do I know if I have bed bugs?
    The easiest way to determine if you have bed bugs or not is to give us a call and request an inspection. But, if you are looking to check on your own, then you are going to want to remove all of the sheets from your beds. Once this is done, you can take a look at the seams in your mattress. Bed bugs often leave droppings behind and they'll get caught in the seams.
