## Pest Types
- [Rats](https://www.dodsonbros.com/pest-type/rats/): Mice and rats can chew through insulation, wires, and walls, creating both safety and health risks\. These pests often enter buildings through small openings in search of food, water, and shelter, especially during cooler months\. Once inside, they can contaminate surfaces and food sources with their droppings and urine\. Dodson Pest Control’s rodent treatment strategies focus on eliminating current infestations and preventing future problems\.
- [Cockroaches](https://www.dodsonbros.com/pest-type/cockroaches/): Cockroaches thrive in warm, damp environments and are known for spreading bacteria and triggering allergies and asthma\. These resilient pests can hide in cracks, behind appliances, and inside cabinets, making them difficult to fully eradicate without professional treatment\. Even a small infestation can grow rapidly, as cockroaches reproduce quickly\. The Dodson Pest Control approach targets both adult roaches and their hiding spots to ensure thorough removal\.
- [Ants](https://www.dodsonbros.com/pest-type/ants/): Ants are the most common household pests, and their presence can quickly become a larger issue if left untreated\. Some species, like carpenter ants, can cause structural damage, while others contaminate food and kitchen surfaces\. Ant colonies often nest in hidden areas, making DIY treatments challenging to master\. Dodson Pest Control technicians start by identifying the ant species and then tailor targeted solutions to eliminate colonies and prevent them from returning\.
- [Bed Bugs](https://www.dodsonbros.com/pest-type/bed-bugs/): Bed bugs are tiny, cryptic insects that hide in mattresses, furniture, and cracks in walls, making them difficult to eliminate without professional help\. These pests feed on human blood, often leaving behind itchy welts and disrupting sleep\. Because they reproduce quickly and spread easily through travel and secondhand items, early detection is key\. The Dodson Pest Control team uses thorough inspection methods and targeted treatments to help eliminate bed bugs and prevent re\-infestations\.
- [Termites](https://www.dodsonbros.com/pest-type/termites/): Termites, known as “silent destroyers”, can cause extensive damage to wooden structures before you even realize they're there\. By feeding on the cellulose found in wood, they can compromise the structural integrity of homes and businesses over time\. Signs like discarded wings, mud tubes, or hollow\-sounding wood often appear only after damage has begun\. Dodson Pest Control provides comprehensive termite control services, including inspections, monitoring, and treatment plans designed to protect your property long\-term\.
