				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is that time of year here in Las Vegas when we see weekly rises in temperature. For those of us warm-weather people, it&#8217;s a nice time of year. In places like Las Vegas and Phoenix temperatures have already dipped up into the triple digits. However, for bugs, it&#8217;s that time of year that their activity gets kicked up a notch. For <a href="http://www.lasvegasscorpioncontrol.com/">scorpions in Las Vegas</a>, the beginning of summer is practically a coming out party across the valley.</p>
<p>Scorpions are an incredibly dynamic pest, which makes them one of the most least understood bugs we find around our house. Here are a few things you should know about our creepy, prickly friends.</p>
<p><img class="wp-image-2593" style="margin: 25px !important; float: left;" title="Las Vegas Bark Scorpion" alt="Las Vegas Bark Scorpion" src="http://pestcontrollasvegasnv.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/bark11.jpg" width="384" height="288" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Toxic is not the same as deadly.</strong></span> Bark scorpions are the most common scorpion found in Las Vegas. They are smaller, about the size of a house key. They are, indeed, considered the most toxic or venomous scorpion in the country, but that doesn&#8217;t always equate to &#8220;deadly&#8221;. Fatalities from bark scorpion stings is actually very rare. Most cases only result in severe discomfort, swelling or numbing.</p>
<p>Sever complications from scorpion stings are typically a result of three primary conditions. Small children usually experience prolonged and exaggerated symptoms, as they have a smaller body mass in comparison to adults. Their immune system are not as efficient as those of adults, and have problems metabolizing through the venom. For similar reasons, elderly folks are also the most susceptible to complications. Weakened and inefficient defense system can cause a myriad of problems.</p>
<p>Lastly, those with known allergies to other stinging insects such as bees should also be extra cautious. If you know you have such allergies follow the same response procedures that you would if you were to be stung by those insects. Wait and see if symptoms begin to escalate, but don&#8217;t be hesitant to head to the ER.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://blogpestcontrol.com/2010/08/baby-scorpions-under-a-black-light/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Baby scorpions</span></a> are not any more dangerous than adults</span></strong>. Stemming from the comparison that baby venomous snakes such as rattlesnakes cannot control the amount of poison they inject into their victim is the same assumption for scorpions. There is no validated research that indicates that is the case.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Scorpions can survive a very long time without food or water</strong></span>. Many believe that scorpions are invading their home for one reason &#8211; food. While they do, indeed, need food to survive, they absolutely do not care how clean, dirty or food-filled your home is. In the Las Vegas summer, water and cooler temperature emission from your home is what initially attracted them to your home. They can survive several months on very minimal food. One cricket, for example. They are not specifically showing up for &#8220;Pizza Night&#8221; or to scoop up leftovers.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Scorpions are not rampant in the desert</strong></span>. Contrary to popular belief, there are not that many scorpions in the barren desert. Let me clarify. Yes, they are indigenous to the land, but we have made the problem and population much, much worse. The process has developed and grown over several decades. Basically, we have given them optimal conditions to breed and survive. For decades we have provided an abundant water supply as we have watered our lawns and plants. Our yards themselves have protected them from their natural predators and the interior walls of our houses have provided them shelter. There is nothing we could&#8217;ve done, or currently can do, to stop this natural process, but it helps to understand how and why they seem to infest your particular house.</p>
<p>Another day, another dollar. They are just trying to survive like the rest of us.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Roaches seem to come out of nowhere. One minute, you&#8217;re enjoying a luxurious bath, and then you open your eyes and find yourself face to face with a bunch of creepy cockroaches. It&#8217;s enough to make you scream and scamper out of your tub, and you could even bump your head or slip in the process. Roaches can definitely ruin your day. But aside from that, there are health issues in relation to cockroach presence. For one, these bugs are capable of spreading bacteria and viruses that cause illnesses, like dysentery, salmonella, and gastroenteritis, to name a few. If you have a lung problem or other chronic respiratory disease, then you should avoid these critters because they can exacerbate asthma and other allergies.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3404/3563531448_75e008efd7.jpg" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<h1></h1>
<h1><strong>What Attracts Roaches into a Home?</strong></h1>
<p>Cockroaches are attracted to a certain area because of several factors. Here are a few examples.</p>
<h2><strong>1. Food Source</strong></h2>
<p>Roaches are voracious eaters. Not only do they delight in things that they can find in sewers and garbage, but they are also known to eat non-food items, such as paper and soap. So, one way to keep the bugs away is by disposing garbage properly. If you&#8217;re throwing a plastic garbage bag in a bin that&#8217;s located outside, be sure to secure the plastic and then cover the bin as well. Avoid leaving uncovered food. If you want to keep some of the meatloaf you cooked for your husband, put this in a Tupperware or any container with a secure cover.</p>
<p>If you keep a compost pile for all your plant and vegetable waste, be sure to take precautions. Composts attract all sorts of insects, and this includes the roach, which is a creature that actually helps in breaking down organic matter. A few things that you can do are: cover your compost with mulch or old newspaper; turn your compost regularly; and avoid throwing meats and dairy products into the compost pile.</p>
<h2><strong>2. Water or Moisture</strong></h2>
<p>All living things need water to live, and that includes the cockroach. This is why they are drawn to areas in a house that usually remain humid, like bathrooms and kitchen sinks. Get rid of their water source by keeping things as dry as possible. Make sure to close faucets properly after using, and fix any leak problem as soon as possible.</p>
<h2><strong>3. Hiding Place</strong></h2>
<p>You&#8217;ll often see cockroaches hiding in dark and moist areas, or places where they feel safe. For example, they&#8217;ll feel perfectly at home underneath kitchen or bathroom sinks, as well as in cupboards, shelves or boxes. To avoid getting roaches, get rid of clutter and properly store items that you don&#8217;t often use.</p>
<h1><strong>Keeping Roaches Out</strong></h1>
<p>In order to further discourage roaches from getting inside your house, you need to employ physical barriers that will keep them out. Check if there are gaps, holes or cracks in your walls or floors, and fix these right away. You can use weatherstripping to close gaps or caulking material. In case you have a severe infestation and no amount of bug spray seems to keep them at bay, then maybe it&#8217;s time for you to call an exterminator.</p>

<h1><span style="color: #993300;"><strong>Bed Bugs</strong></span></h1>
<p>Bed bugs have gotten a lot of publicity lately. You want to keep them out of your house, but may not even be sure about what the actual bug looks like or, what a real bed bug bite looks like.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">What Bed Bugs Look Like</span></h2>
<p>To explain a bit about their appearance, Bed bugs generally look similar to seeds. They are relatively small in size and are flat. The problem with bed bugs is they go through many changes throughout their life and they look different at each stage of their life cycle. They also have a different appearance before a feeding as to after a feeding.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Reproduction of Bed Bugs</span></h2>
<p>The first hatched bed bug is very small and almost clear in color. It is visible by the naked eye but is only about 1.5 mm long. That means, it is about the size and shape of a small seed from an apple. Once it feeds, the bug becomes swollen and turns a reddish color.</p>
<p>After it molts, it grows to about 2 mm long. A bed bug molts five times before reaching the adult stage. It slowly grows and slowly turns brown. An adult bed bug is about 5.5 mm long and is solid brown. A female bed bug has the capability of laying up one to five eggs day, which hatch only 7 to 10 days later. Female bedbugs can lay 500 eggs in their lifetime and considering their life span can only extend to up to 300 days, you can only imagine how quickly these pesky bugs multiply.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 187px"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/41297282@N00/749283325" target="_blank"><img class="zemanta-img-inserted zemanta-img-configured" title="eaten alive" alt="eaten alive" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1408/749283325_5c8a08d743_m.jpg" width="177" height="240" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">eaten alive (Photo credit: The Guncle)</p></div>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Identifying Bed Bug Bites</span></h2>
<p>Bed bug bites are small red bumps that have a tendency to itch. They are normally found in clusters or straight lines on the body. A large rash may develop, if there is a severe reaction to the bite. Bites can also become infected so it is important to keep bed bug bites clean to avoid any potential infections.</p>
<p>Even if you don’t have bed bugs bites, it is important to check your house for these pests. I recommend doing this because most people aren’t aware that they could have bed bugs even if they don’t have bites. This is because every person reacts a bit different when bitten by a bed bug. Plus, it is predicted that about thirty percent of people don’t show any reaction at all when bitten by a bed bug.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Common Places to Find these Bugs</span></h2>
<p>Bed bugs like to hide out near their food, which is why they are most commonly found in mattresses and bedding. They have also been known to hide in closets and behind picture frames. They are small so any small cracks in walls, furniture or flooring make for a good home for bed bugs. They also like televisions, phones, and radios.</p>
<p>Getting rid of the bed bugs is not any easy task. The help of a <a href="http://www.bedbugfindersllc.com/">bed bug control</a> expert will be needed. The bed bug expert will be able to guide you through the process to make sure that the bed bugs are gone for good.</p>

<p>Today is <a class="zem_slink" title="Earth Day" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_Day" target="_blank" rel="wikipedia">Earth Day</a>! It’s a day in which all of us can appreciate this beautiful planet in which we live, and reflect on our own individual efforts to lower our carbon footprint.</p>
<p>Over the past few years, <a href="http://www.bulwarkpestcontrol.com/">Bulwark Exterminating</a> has made many efforts to go green and do their part to save the planet, all while increasing customer satisfaction.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #000080;">Bulwark Exterminating’s Efforts To Go Green</span></h2>
<p>Bulwark Exterminating, who has a branch in <a href="http://www.bulwarkpestcontrol.com/lasvegas/buy-local.php">Las Vegas, NV</a>, has made many efforts to go paperless and go green. These efforts save some 60,000 sheets of paper per month. Here are just a few examples:</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;">Customer invoices are now emailed, and can also be accessed electronically.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;">Pest control service tickets are being emailed to customers as well.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;">Any fax that Bulwark receives goes to email instead of being printed out.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;">Sales contracts can now be completed electronically.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13px;">Technicians utilize paperless electronic routing.</span></li>
</ul>
<h2><span style="color: #000080;">Going Green: Paperless Routing</span></h2>
<p>One component to “going green,” is <a href="http://blogpestcontrol.com/2013/04/a-plea-for-paperless-pest-control/">going paperless</a>. Bulwark Pest Control of Las Vegas is now paperless.</p>
<p>Bulwark technicians used to have to drive in to the office every morning, and print off routes, customer information, and service notes. This created a lot of unnecessary paperwork.</p>
<p>Now, smart phone technology and special software allows Bulwark’s technicians to start servicing customers as soon as they leave their home. Each morning, technicians receive an email on their smart phones. With these emails, technicians are able to access their routes, customer contact information and custom service notes for each customers. No more redundant paperwork.</p>
<p>With these above mentioned combined efforts, Bulwark Exterminating has been able to effectively get rid of 60,000 sheets of paper a month! This will save a lot of trees.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #000080;">Helping To Save The Planet</span></h2>
<p>Paper production is the second largest user of energy and water when it comes to manufacturing in the United States. Paper production is also the third largest contributor to pollution. Reducing paper usage by 60 percent will eliminate over 200 lbs of greenhouse gas a year.</p>
<p>A small business can use at least of 10,000 pieces of paper each year… Per employee! That’s crazy! An average tree will fabricate almost 17 reams of paper. With the average small business employee responsible for using 1.2 trees a year just to do their job, some 178 million trees are no longer part of our eco system.</p>
<p>One pest control technician going paperless can save one tree a year. This Earth Day lets all make a stronger effort to go green, go paperless, and reduce our carbon footprint.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" alt="" src="http://static.flickr.com/2283/2514543531_ba48c27af1.jpg" width="312" height="198" /></p>
<p>Spring cleaning is a time to start fresh. For many families, that means getting rid of clutter, scrubbing down surfaces and implementing new organizational systems. Although not often thought about, pest prevention should be part of the spring cleaning process as well. As temperatures increase, a wide variety of pests make their move on unsuspecting homeowners. To keep them at bay, it is important to implement the following tips.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;">Take Away Their Food Source</span></h2>
<p>If pests are able to find food inside your house, it is going to be difficult to get rid of them. Start the prevention process in your kitchen. Make sure that your trash can has a tight fitting lid; if it does not, consider picking up a new one. Also, clean both the outside and inside of your receptacle. A small tear in your trash bag can mean a large mess that pests will find appetizing. Finally, commit yourself to daily maintenance. It is important that you load your dishwasher each evening rather than allowing dishes to remain in the sink. In addition, keep the counters clean and the floors swept for best results.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;">Clean Up Standing Water</span></h2>
<p>Go into all of your bathrooms, as well as your kitchen, and check under the sinks to make sure the pipes are not leaking. If you spot an issue, have it corrected as soon as possible. In addition, if you have an area of your home, like the basement, that seems damp or humid, set up a dehumidifier to take care of the problem. Pests are attracted to water, so leaving these issues unresolved is a recipe for disaster.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;">Prevent Nesting</span></h2>
<p>Walk around the perimeter of your home, and examine the foundation closely. In order to keep bugs from viewing your home as their home, it may be necessary to complete a few projects. For instance, there should be at least once inch of space between the wood on your home and the soil from the yard. In addition, all mulch should be kept approximately a foot and a half away from the foundation. Finally, if you notice any cracks or small holes, make sure you close them up right away.</p>
<p>As a general rule, it is also a good idea to make sure that all your doors and windows have screens on them. This will make it much more difficult for a pest to gain access to your living space. In addition, keep all shrubbery trim and down away from your home.</p>
<p>As you get ready to begin the spring cleaning process, it is important not to forget about pest prevention. A little bit of work now can make a huge difference when warmer weather rolls around.</p>

<p>Last year some 40 million tourists flocked to Las Vegas for some fun and gambling in the desert. While most of these tourists are worried about not losing a fortune at the black jack table; there is another worry Las Vegas tourists should be concerned about—the blood sucking bedbugs.</p>
<p>If you happen to contract bedbugs from a Las Vegas hotel; or if you are a tenant or property manager battling a bedbug infestation; it’s important to know what the bedbug laws are in the State of Nevada.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Las Vegas Bedbugs</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://blogpestcontrol.com/pest-index/bed-bugs/">Bedbug</a> infestations continue to rise across much of the United States, and the State of Nevada is not exempt form these tiny hitchhiking pests. Currently, the city of Las Vegas is the 46th ranked bedbug infested city in the country. While these numbers are drastically improved, down 30 spots from last year’s ranking, bedbugs are still a problem in the city.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Nevada Bedbug Laws</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Currently, there are <a href="http://blogpestcontrol.com/2013/03/bedbug-laws-by-state/">22 States in the U.S. with bedbug laws</a>. As of 3/2013, there are two bedbug laws in the books for the state of Nevada. With proposed bedbug legislation being brought to the table on a frequent basis, these laws can change. They are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong style="color: #000080;">Extermination&#8211; Nevada Revised Code 447.030</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Any room in any hotel in Nevada that is infested with bedbugs shall be thoroughly fumigated, disinfected and renovated until such bedbugs are entirely exterminated.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong style="color: #000080;">Sanitation&#8211; Nevada Revised Code 444</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">In a camp, proper bedbug prevention measures must be taken.</p>
<p>Source: <a href="http://www.leg.state.nv.us/Division/Legal/LawLibrary/NRS/NRS-447.html">http://www.leg.state.nv.us/Division/Legal/LawLibrary/NRS/NRS-447.html</a></p>
<h2><span style="color: #993300;">Tenant-Landlord Rights &amp; Obligations</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Landlords and property owners have an obligation to provide safe and habitable accommodations for tenants. Bedbug infestations can be considered improper accommodations. Tenants have an obligation to cooperate with owners and landlords. This includes preparing the home so that the pest control operator can easily inspect the rooms and treat if necessary.</p>
<p>For more information on the rights and obligations of tenants and landlords, visit <a href="http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-118A.html">the Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 118A &#8211; Landlord and Tenant: Dwellings webpage.</a></p>

<p>The information provided in this article is for informational purposes only, and not for the purpose of providing legal advice. These are the bedbug laws as of March 2013, and can change. If you feel that you have been a bedbug victim; whether landlord, tenant, or otherwise, please contact a licensed attorney who specializes in bedbug cases.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bed_bug%2C_Cimex_lectularius.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="zemanta-img-inserted zemanta-img-configured alignright" title="An adult bed bug (Cimex lectularius) with the ..." alt="An adult bed bug (Cimex lectularius) with the ..." src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Bed_bug%2C_Cimex_lectularius.jpg/300px-Bed_bug%2C_Cimex_lectularius.jpg" width="300" height="210" /></a></p>
<p>Bed bugs have become problematic throughout Canada. As more immigrants and tourists enter the country from places where these pests are common, bed bugs travel in with their luggage. They take up residence in many hotels and can spread to workplaces when visitors attend conferences or even visit a restaurant. Bed bugs can be found nearly anywhere. However, there are several places they commonly hide once they enter the home.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Finding Bed bug Infestations</strong></span></h2>
<p>Bed bugs often hide along the seams of mattresses. They can also be found under furniture or beds. Some people have found these pests hiding in corners, under rugs or along the edges of carpeted rooms. Some people also notice a musky scent near the site of a bed bug infestation. Many people notice several small red bumps on their skin, which often appear in a row. Although these could also be indicators of other types of bites or skin irritants, they are often bed bug bites when aligned in a neat row.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Exterminating Bed bug Populations</strong></span></h2>
<p>Although there are many home treatments and remedies available on the Internet, it is important to remember that not all products work simply because the site owner makes such claims. Bedbug removal has always been one of the most difficult processes. In decades past, some frustrated homeowners even burned their houses to the ground. However, treatments have improved since those days. The most effective method of completely eradicating these pests is to call a professional bed bug exterminator.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>What Professional Bed Bug Exterminators Do</strong></span></h2>
<p>There are a variety of extermination methods used by pest control professionals. The products they use are much more effective than treatments purchased in stores. They use special application methods and have professional tools and devices. Some companies may use all-natural methods or chemical-free substances instead of the more powerful chemicals.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>What To Look For In An Extermination Company</strong></span></h2>
<p>It is best to work with a company that has sufficient experience in bed bug removal. A good company will have a service guarantee, which means that customers will receive a refund if the treatments are ineffective. When speaking with an extermination company on the telephone, consumers should ask if treatments are designed specifically for bed bugs. If a company does not provide treatments specifically for this pest and does not offer a satisfaction guarantee, it is better to continue searching for exterminators. Most Canadian extermination companies that have storefronts are legitimate businesses with the proper credentials. Consumers should beware of individuals offering independent extermination services in newspapers or through advertisements. If the person does not represent an established company that can be contacted to verify employment, consumers should avoid such individuals. Reading online consumer reviews from <a href="http://bedbugs.net/a-guide-to-hiring-bed-bug-exterminators/%20" target="_self">unbiased third-party sites</a> is also a wise idea.</p>
<p>While it is important to eradicate bed bugs as quickly as possible, Canadian consumers should also take the necessary time to hire a reliable exterminator. Hiring the wrong company or individual could be a costly mistake, and bed bug infestations only grow if they are not properly removed.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/stevensnodgrass/8204020433/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8201/8204020433_b4d6de20f6.jpg" width="500" height="366" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">It&#8217;s about that time of year again. The weather starts warming up, and bugs and other pests start making their rounds, looking for food and shelter. If you dread spring and summer because spiders, rats and ants give you the heebie-jeebies, then you&#8217;re in luck because we have a few tips to keep those uninvited guests out. How rude of them to not even ask for an invitation!</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Chemicals Don&#8217;t Have to Be the Answer</strong><strong> </strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">While many people quickly turn towards chemicals to keep unwanted pests from stepping foot in their homes, there are easier (and safer) ways to go about getting the job done. For starters, do a complete walkthrough of the inside and outside of your home. Look for cracks or gaps in your walls, and the foundation of your home. Many critters can find their way into our homes without us even realizing we basically had a red carpet leading them directly to our cozy living quarters. Fill imperfections with caulk as you find them to nip the problem in the bud before it becomes an extermination issue.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Door and windows are two of the most common ways for an unwanted visitor to sneak inside. Verify that doors close snuggly or have a sweep beneath them and that window screens are in good condition. It may be time to swap out for better screens if yours appear aged and if you plan on leaving your front door open during the warm weather, having a working screen there too is a must.</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Don&#8217;t Allow Your Home to Become a Pest Vacation Retreat</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If your yard or inside of your home is providing everything those nasty bugs require, why would they want to live anywhere else? Having an unkept yard with many hiding places (such as tall grass or overgrown bushes) and standing water can mean infestation time. Mosquitoes, for example, only require less than an ounce of water to begin reproducing and no one likes those itchy bites &#8211; not your pets, children or company.</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Tiding Up and Removing Gourmet Meals</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Many home owners provide food on the daily for pests without even realizing it. Dog food should be stored in plastic containers and not left outside for other animals to feast upon. The same can be said about garbage. Having an overflowing trash can not only makes a yard less appealing on the eyes but can feed a large number of pests, which your neighbors won&#8217;t be very happy about, either. Once they find a place to call &#8216;home&#8217;, it can be very tricky to get them out.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Speaking of cleanliness, it&#8217;s important that you not only keep the exterior of your home tidied up and maintained but the interior is just as important. If pests come into your home and find nothing to eat, they are likely to turn right around and leave the way they entered. However, if they find dirty dishes, messy carpets and un-swept floors, there isn&#8217;t going to be much reason for them <em>not</em> to stick around. The last thing you need is for them to call their buddies for a chow session. Rats will not only locate food in your home but burrow inside your walls, chew your electrical components and leave feces throughout your residence, which is extremely dangerous, especially when you have children or pets who may ingest the droppings.</span><strong> </strong></p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>Turn Off That Welcome Sign</strong></span></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tambako/8123373313/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8333/8123373313_03ff697794.jpg" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Food, water and the warmth of shelter attract a variety of animals and bugs. One thing many new home owners forget, especially if this is going to be your very first summer in your new home, is that light brings moths, and mosquitoes straight to your property. It&#8217;s like a huge &#8216;Vacancy&#8217; sign at a hotel telling them to come check out the place and stay a while.</span></p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong>The Effect of Light on Insects and What You Can Do to Minimize the Effects</strong></span></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/stevenfernandez/2426476772/"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2214/2426476772_6b1c346d95.jpg" width="332" height="500" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">When it&#8217;s dark out, bugs navigate via something known as &#8216;phototaxis&#8217;, which describes how they act around light. Many insects are attracted to light and will do just about anything to get close to it. Cockroaches, on the other hand, are the opposite; they avoid lights like the plague. Hence, why you&#8217;ll see them run for cover when your flip that light switch in the middle of the night.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you&#8217;re worried about the lights outside your home, it may be time to install motion detectors so they only come on when you need them. This way, when you&#8217;re hanging out in your backyard with your friends, you aren&#8217;t as likely to have bugs get in the way of your nice weekend get-together. Another solution would be replacing your current bulbs for CFL bulbs, because these do not attract pests to your doorstep as UV lighting options do.</span></p>

<p>Learning the basics of Las Vegas real estate will help you to purchase responsibly. You will know when the best time to acquire property is, and how you can look for a house that meets all residential requirements. In addition, you will also be able to speculate future trends with some degree of accuracy.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff0000;">Major Residential Areas</span></h1>
<p>Las Vegas is known for its luxurious grandeur. Along The Strip lie several high rises that are ideal for the lavish metropolitan lifestyle the city has to offer. You will also find the Sky Las Vegas along The Strip. This apartment provides all the facilities of a fully-furnished apartment and the lifestyle that comes with it.</p>
<p>If you are looking for condominiums, City Center is the place you should be visiting, not to mention the City Center skyline which is another piece of architecture worth looking at.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff0000;">Long-term Investments in Las Vegas Real Estate</span></h1>
<p>Many people perceive Las Vegas as an entertainment city and nothing else. Hence, they do not consider purchasing residential property in this city.</p>
<p>However, while it is true that Las Vegas is home to dozens of casinos, hotels, malls, and parks, it also has sufficient amenities for daily living. For instance, did you know that Las Vegas has more libraries than any other metropolitan city in the US?</p>
<p>The city’s education level is impressive, as about 80% of residents have senior high school and college education. The student-to-teacher ratio in 2012 was 18:1. So just keeping the education statistics in mind, you can actually consider investing in an apartment or condominium in Las Vegas as a permanent residence.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff0000;">Current and Future Trends</span></h1>
<p>Ever since the recession, the Las Vegas property market faced high rates of foreclosure. Many speculated that property prices will continue to fall in 2013. However, others were of the view that 2013 will be the year when the market will resurge, and currently, prices are going up.</p>
<p>However, the current mode of property buying/selling is short sale. It entails a lengthy procedure which many are willing to go through. This is because the local inventory is currently low. Those who want to sell off their property without short sale will have to wait till banks start foreclosure.</p>
<p>But even though prices are going up, recovery seems weak. Various factors come into play, and limited lending, government legislation, and the overall economy will play their part to slow recovery down.</p>

<p>Pests don’t discriminate; they flock in equal numbers to homes, apartments, condos and townhouses. Regardless of where you live, you have probably encountered bugs in your living space on more than one occasion. For many, it often seems that as soon as they fix one pest problem, another equally annoying bug makes its presence known. This is frustrating and confusing, particularly if you feel you&#8217;ve taken the appropriate steps to protect your home. Why is it that bugs keep coming back time and time again? The following information will provide you with a little insight into the situation.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #c65839;">Supply and Demand</span></h3>
<p>Just like people, bugs have to eat to survive. You have a readily available source of food, and the pests near your home can smell it. They also realize that in order to access their next meal, they have to gain entry into your living space. Whether it’s ants, a mouse or even a few roaches, the pests are going to keep coming back as long as your home has food in it.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #c65839;">Rapid Reproduction</span></h3>
<p>Unlike people, pests tend to reproduce in very large numbers. In particular, spiders and insects may have several hundred babies at one time. This rapid reproduction has a significant impact on your efforts to control the number of pests in your home. For example, most bugs, when faced with having to feed such a large number of offspring, will become very persistent in their efforts to gain entry into your home. After all, once inside, they can provide their little ones with a nearly unlimited supply of food, as well as shelter. Also, if the bugs lay eggs inside your living space, you may find that those eggs are not affected by pest sprays. Therefore, just when you think you have the problem under control, the eggs hatch and everything starts all over again.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #c65839;">Unfavorable Weather Conditions</span></h3>
<p>Some bugs are tougher than others. For example, roaches deal well with extreme temperatures, rain and a number of other weather conditions. However, other pests aren&#8217;t so resilient. Bed bugs, for instance, prefer to be warm and will therefore do everything in their power to get inside your home in the wintertime. Once they get used to their surroundings, they are unlikely to leave, even as the seasons change. They are just one example of the many pests that make comfort a priority, hijacking your living space and making themselves at home despite your best efforts to ward them off.</p>
<p>If you are having trouble getting rid of pests, remember that the situation does not illustrate a failure on your part. As the examples above have shown, most bugs are determined, resilient little creatures that are seeking food and shelter. Try to use this knowledge in your favor as you continue the battle to keep these pesky creatures outside, where they belong.</p>
