🐝 SEEING PERFECTLY ROUND HOLES IN YOUR WOOD?
You may have carpenter bees.

Carpenter bees don’t eat wood. They excavate it to create nesting tunnels, often leaving smooth, round entrance holes in decks, fences, eaves, and other exposed wood. And those tunnels can extend deeper into the wood and branch into additional nesting chambers over time.

🔎 A few signs to watch for:
• Small, perfectly round holes in wood
• Carpenter bees hovering around exposed wood
• Sawdust or debris beneath an entrance hole
• Woodpecker activity around previously drilled areas

Don’t wait for a small hole to become a bigger problem. Early prevention can help protect your home and wooden structures. 🏠

Believe it or not, stink bugs are relatively new to the United States!

Stink bugs weren’t reported in the United States until the late 1990s. Since then, they’ve become a familiar (and often unwelcome) sight around homes, especially when they start looking for a warm place to shelter.

And yes… they really do live up to their name! 🤢💨

Have a stink bug problem? Let EcoShield Pest Solutions help keep these unwanted guests outside where they belong. 🛡️

Subterranean and drywood termites can both cause serious damage, but they live differently, behave differently, and require different treatment approaches.

🔎 Subterranean termites live in soil and rely on moisture, often using mud tubes to reach your home.
🪵 Drywood termites live directly inside dry wood and don’t need contact with the soil.

Think you may have termites? Don’t wait until the damage becomes visible. EcoShield Pest Solutions can identify the type of termite and recommend the right solution for your home.

Different termites. Same risk to your home. 🛡️ Call now: (888) 744-1284 📲
