Seeing Juvenille Box Elder Bugs Everywhere Right Now?? 😵‍💫

If you’ve noticed swarms of black-and-red bugs on sunny walls, windows, or the trunks of trees, you’re seeing classic fall box elder bug behavior.

These bugs spend the summer feeding on seeds from female box elder trees (and sometimes other maples or ash). When temperatures drop in September, they gather on the warm south and west sides of trees and buildings, looking for a place to overwinter—often your home.

Quick fun facts:
• They’re about ½ inch long with three red stripes behind the head.
• They don’t bite, sting, or spread disease.
• Their droppings can leave reddish stains.
• Nymphs start out bright red before turning black and red as adults.

Seeing heavy activity near box elder trees or on your house? We can help control them now, and reduce the invasion before they settle in for winter. Give us a call today to get your house treated for these pesky bugs, and the bugs yet to come! 920.826.6233 is our office number, or shoot us a Facebook message!

Anyone else ever find a wasp or bald-faced hornets’ nest in the weirdest possible spot??? 🐝
We’re talking the kind of place that makes you stop, stare, and say “How in the world did they build there?!”
High up under a tricky overhang, tucked behind something you barely notice, right next to a busy walkway, or in some other awkward, hard-to-reach location that turns a simple nest into a real headache.
Bald-faced hornets and wasps don’t care about convenience—they just want a protected spot. The problem is, those “protected” spots are often the exact places that make removal risky and frustrating.

If you’ve got one in an odd or tough-to-access spot, the smartest move is to give us a call 920.826.6233. Let us handle it, so you don't have to!
Have you ever discovered a nest in a completely ridiculous place? Drop your story below—we’d love to hear the “wait… seriously?!” locations. 👇 Here are two that our techs have taken care of!

🐛 Strawberry Root Weevil Alert for Gardeners & Homeowners! 🐛
Noticing ragged notches on the edges of your strawberry leaves… or finding small dark beetles crawling around your house this summer? You may have strawberry root weevils (Otiorhynchus ovatus).
Adults are about ¼ inch long, shiny black to dark brown, with a blunt snout and rows of tiny pits on their backs. They cannot fly.

What they do:

Adults chew distinctive notches in leaf edges (usually minor cosmetic damage)
Larvae (white, C-shaped, legless grubs with brown heads) feed on roots underground — this is the real problem. Heavy root feeding can stunt plants, reduce yields, or even kill them
They also love moisture and frequently wander indoors in summer, showing up in sinks, bathtubs, and basements.

Management tips:

Hand-pick adults at night (they’re nocturnal feeders)
Cultivate soil in fall or early spring to disrupt larvae
Keep weeds under control around plantings
Beneficial nematodes can help control larvae in moist soil
Indoors: vacuum them up — they’re harmless and temporary visitors

Has anyone else been dealing with these root weevils in their berry patch or house this year? Share your experiences or photos below! 👇
