Happy first day of Spring! Unfortunately for many, this is what you have to look forward to. Small ants are taking over this kitchen in Hillsboro OR.

It's cold outside! As the snow falls and people move inside to find warmth, rodents are not far behind. This photo shows all it takes for a mouse to gain entry into your home, or garage in this case.

Have you ever wondered what the inside of a Yellow Jacket nest looks like? Here ya go. The white globs are pupae, or cocoons, of a worker waiting to hatch. The queen lays her eggs in each of the cells, which are hexagonal. Also notice that the "sleeve" of cells is also hexagonal, as are the "sleeves" beneath it.
