Identifying Vole And Gopher Problems On Your Cascade Property

There are thousands of rodent species in the United States, but here in Cascade, voles and gophers will be some of the biggest problems you’ll see on your property. 

If you haven't seen a vole or a gopher there are some characteristic differences. Gophers usually range between four and 12 inches long and are much larger than voles and cause significantly more damage. Voles, on the other hand, are commonly known as meadow mice and measure between five and eight inches long, so they’re quite a bit smaller than the gopher but still can cause significant damage to a yard.

It’s the yard and property damage that really distinguishes the difference between the gopher and the vole. 

Here's how to tell who the culprit is:  

• When gophers damage your yard, their mounds can be up to a foot tall and a foot to two feet in diameter. You’ll also notice that they don’t have service tunnels; instead, they have lateral tunnels that they plug with soil to keep intruders out. These tunnels can be a few inches to several feet underground.
• When voles wreak havoc on your yard, they utilize a tunnel system but don’t dig as deep as gophers. They burrow shallow surface tunnels that have the appearance of trails of dead grass that range from one to two inches wide and a half inch deep. These maze-like tunnels result from voles eating blades and stems of grass as well as traveling back-and-forth along the same path.

These rodent species tunnel underground and uproot plants from their roots and stems, causing an unsightly yard. To rid your home of such destructive pests, give Sawtooth Pest Control a call at (208) 540-9689 to find out more about our rodent exclusion services.

The Dangers Cockroaches Bring To Your Cascade Home

Cockroaches are known vectors of dangerous diseases and have no place in Cascade homes. Not only do these pests pose a serious health risk, but they’re also damaging pests. 

When cockroaches enter your home, they will chew through food packaging and stain surfaces and fabrics with their excrement. The moment you notice you have a cockroach problem, you need to contact the pest professionals immediately. 

Cockroaches are not only the filthiest pests in the world, but they reproduce at an alarming rate. That means that if you kill one cockroach, there are probably hundreds more harboring in the cracks and crevices of your home. Our team at Sawtooth Pest Control is here to help you eliminate your cockroach problem. 

Here are some of the dangers cockroaches present to your home and family: 

• Capable of transmitting diseases, viruses, and bacteria such as hepatitis virus, Staphylococcus spp., typhoid fever, Streptococcus spp., coliform bacteria, and dysentery
• Source of allergens and increased risk for asthma flare-ups among sensitive individuals
• Contamination of food and eating utensils
• Production of unpleasant odor
• Transmission of bacteria to the food we consume and the surfaces we touch causing food poisoning

Now that you know the dangers associated with these filthy pests don’t think that pulling out cans of bug spray will kill the cockroach infestation because it won't work. These bugs are very resilient and have acquired resistance to DIY products. Cockroach infestations and the dangers they pose to humans require professional pest control services. This should not be up for debate for the health and safety of you and your family.
