Signs Your Home or Business in North Port Needs Pest Control
Pests can invade your home or business in ways you might not immediately notice. However, ignoring early warning signs can lead to more significant problems, including property damage, health risks, and costly repairs. At Westfall's Lawn and Pest Control, we specialize in protecting North Port homes and businesses with personalized, effective pest control solutions.
- Unusual Droppings or Grease Marks: Finding droppings or smudges around your property is one of the most obvious indicators of a pest infestation. Rodents, for instance, often leave behind small, dark droppings and grease trails along walls, counters, or baseboards.
- Damage to Furniture, Walls, or Wiring: Have you noticed chewed wires, gnawed wood, or holes in your furniture or walls? Termites, rodents, and even some ants can cause structural damage to your property. For North Port businesses, this type of damage can also be a fire hazard if electrical wiring is involved.
- Strange Sounds in Walls or Ceilings: Pests like rodents and insects are often active at night. If you hear scratching, rustling, or squeaking sounds in your walls, ceilings, or attic, you may have an infestation.
- Visible Pest Sightings: Spotting live pests during the day is often a sign of a severe infestation. Cockroaches, ants, and rodents are usually more active at night, so seeing them during daylight hours could mean their population has grown beyond what your property can sustain.
- Unpleasant Odors: Pests can create unpleasant smells in your home or business. A musty odor could indicate a cockroach infestation, while a urine-like smell might point to rodents. Dead pests or their nests can also produce a foul odor.
- Nests or Webs: Spotting nests in hidden areas like attics, basements, or behind appliances is a clear indication of a pest problem. Spider webs in corners or dark spaces can also point to an insect issue.

What are bill bugs?
Bill bugs are a type of weevil that is well-known for their behavior of destroying lawns. There are dozens of different bill bug species, and around ten of these species are particularly known for invading lawns and munching away on the plants they find there both as adults and in their immature stages.
Adult bill bugs grow to be around 1/4 of an inch long and have black or grey bodies. They have long snouts and a broad thorax, plus six legs. Larval bill bugs are also referred to as grubs, and they are plump, cream, or white in color, and curved or C-shaped.
Westfall's Lawn and Pest will help you with identification issues and provide you with effective bill bug removal solutions.
-
Are bill bugs dangerous?
Bill bugs are relatively harmless to humans, as they don’t bite, nor do they transmit bacteria and pathogens to human properties. However, an infestation of bill bugs is dangerous for your outdoor areas as these insects chew away at the roots of your grass and other vegetation. Over time, a bill bug infestation will completely destroy the health of your outdoor plants and leave your lawn looking brown, patchy, and parched.
Another major problem with widespread bill bug infestation is the predators that will come looking to eat these insects. Having an infestation of bill bugs often leads to a plethora of birds, skunks, and wasps on your property causing their own serious issues.
-
Why do I have a bill bug problem?
Bill bugs are attracted to properties where they have lots of food in the form of grass and leaves to chew. In most cases, untreated lawns, overgrown grasses, and trees that are not protected by pest repellents will be prime attractants to bill bugs looking to feed and lay their eggs. These pests are most active in summer as they move from yard to yard searching for food.
-
Where will I find bill bugs?
Bill bugs are almost always found outside, as they prefer to inhabit long grasses, trees, leaf piles, and other areas of overgrown foliage. You may see bill bugs occasionally gathering on the siding of your home, and they may accidentally find their way indoors, but these insects will die if they are away from lawns and garden spaces for too long.
