While spiders can be beneficial – eating insects and other pests – some species can also be harmful to people and animals. Spider fangs emit venom which, depending on the type of spider, can produce symptoms ranging from very mild to lethal. Possible symptoms of a spider bite include swelling, skin lesions or welts, rash, itching, blistering, and pain around the bite area. Spider bites can also trigger allergic reactions, difficulty breathing, muscle pain or cramping, nausea and vomiting, fever, sweating, and headaches. In rare cases, spider venom can also cause the tissue around the bite to die, paralyze the nervous system, or result in death.

Biting insects can be more than just a nuisance, as many of these bugs can also carry dangerous diseases.

Common biting insects in Oklahoma that easily come to mind such as mosquitoes, bed bugs and ticks can be just as dangerous as the less conspicuous critters, such as dust mites and chiggers. Biting insects are often drawn to standing water and excessive moisture. Removing standing water from your lawn is a great method for keeping these insects away!

Just say the word termite and homeowners cringe. These tiny wood-eating pests are capable of great destruction, causing an estimated $5 billion in damage annually.

Of the more than 2,500 known species of termites, 50 of them are found in North America, predominantly located in warmer climates. Termites have been in existence for over 100 million years. Even though they are commonly mistaken for ants, these insects are more closely related to wood-eating cockroaches.

Because termites feed exclusively on cellulose-laden materials, wood and other construction materials offer a rich source of nutrition for them. Nearly one out of every 25 homes in the United States are thought to have a termite problem. If not properly treated, termites will destroy property and can compromise a building’s structural integrity.
