PSA: When Yellowjackets form nests in a wall void it is STRONGLY recommended that you do not seal them in. They will find a new way out and if you're unlucky that could mean your living room. They can chew through drywall.

Cicada broods XIII and XIX haven't emerged at the same time since 1803 and won't again until 2245. What a time to be alive!

At over 90 decibels male cicada calls can be as loud as a lawnmower.

Two broods of cicadas will be emerging this year as early as May. The numbers might be in the trillions. Although they don't pose a threat to humans or pets they can damage shrubs and small trees. It is recommended that you hold off on planting until next year. If you have plants you want to protect you can cover them with netting. There is no recommended pesticide for cicada control.

I would like to remind my neighbors and valued customers that feeding wildlife doesn't just attract unwanted pests. When animals gather in close proximity for handouts it increases the chance of disease transmission. Wild animals have specialized diets and become malnourished when they rely on peanuts and bird seed. Also, wild animals will fight over access to food which leads to injury and death. I understand wanting to help your local critters and the urge to observe them. I don't recommend it but, if you must do it, please limit the amount of bird seed you put out at one time and clean your bird baths frequently. You might want to consider planting a pollinator garden and native grasses if you want to enrich your local ecosystem.

Cool Bird Facts: Another common fall time critter is the owl. The majestic nocturnal predators were once considered a bad omen. This is most likely attributed to ancient people being frightened of what hides and hunts in the darkness. With their large beaks, ominous hoots, razor sharp talons, and near silent flight they instilled fear into people when their only source of light was from a centralized fire. They don't just instill fear into people, it's common to use owl decoys to deter birds, squirrels, and snakes. Of the 9 types of owls in Illinois the most common is the great horned owl. These impressive hunter mostly feed on rats, mice, and rabbits but are known to hunt quite literally any animal they can overtake. This includes reptiles, birds, and larger mammals (skunks and racoons). If you're ever lucky enough to see an owl hunt it's truly a sight to behold. Although the can reach 3 ft tall they don't get heavier than 3.5 lbs. This means rodenticides when used incorrectly can harm these non target creature. That's just not ok. Here at Home Again Pest Control LLC we take our job as stewards of the environment seriously. Our goal is to restore natural order to your house while minimizing risk to non target species.

Just a friendly reminder that approximately 250 different bird species migrate through our region this time of year. Turning off outdoor lights at night and drawing your shades when possible can help keep them from getting confused, which can lead to injury or death. This is also recommended to avoid an abundance of flying insects which can in turn attract spiders and bats.

October's here and Halloween is around the corner. Keeping with the theme of discussing bats and the myths surrounding them, this post will cover my personal favorite halloween monster... Vampires! Stories of creatures that come in the night to suck your blood date back as far as Ancient Greece over 1000 years ago and continued to develop throughout Europe throughout the next millennia. Like many fears of the old world, these myths developed as a way to explain parts of peoples lives they didn't fully understand. Diseases such as porphyria, which makes people sensitive to sunlight; pellagra, a disease that thins the skin; and rabies, which causes biting and general sensitivities that could lead to repulsion by light or garlic all contributed to the folklore of vampires. Furthermore, when the people of Eastern Europe dug up a grave they noticed two things. First, recessed gums which could give the appearance of fangs. Also, longer hair and fingernails which contributed to the belief of a worldly life after death. But, vampire's relationship with bats is far more recent. It wasn't until European explores discovered Central and South America. Here they came across an interesting little creature that would eventually come to be named the Vampire Bat. These cute little guys are the only mammal that survives solely on blood. These European explorers often wrote embellished accounts of their travels. Including their tales of blood sucking bats. In 1810 these bloodsuckers would come to be named Vampire Bats. Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula wasn't written until 1897 and actually had nothing to do with their name. It did however cement bats relationship with vampires in modern folklore. Although it is not the first work of fiction to make the connection it is by far the most popular. Depicting the infamous Count Dracula shapeshifting into the form of a bat, a wolf, and a cloud of smoke. Ultimately, there are many reasons why bats are tied to Halloween. Some of them being flat our myths, but also they are just commonly seen this time of year. Bat pups are just learning to fly and find food on their own. A lot of bats are insectivores and flying insects are rather abundant in early Fall. Also, bats in the Midwest are either going to hibernate of migrate and whichever one they do it's going to take more energy than normal so they need more food.
