Pest Control In Eldersburg, MD
Miche Pest Control provides extermination services that get rid of ants, spiders, cockroaches, and more from homes and businesses in Eldersburg, MD. We get rid of pests fast by using a combination of highly effective treatment methods, using the best products available for the specific pests that you're seeing. Our most popular plan in Maryland is our quarterly pest control service.

- Spider Web Removal
- Wasp & Hornet Nest Removal
- 4 to 6 Foot Barrier Spray For Crawling Insects
- 10 Foot Granular Barrier To Push Bugs Away From The Home
- Detailed Crack & Crevice Treatments

This service is designed to be thorough enough on the outside that you shouldn't need inside treatment, but the inside is always included when needed and/or requested. We use products that are registered with the EPA, and labeled for use in and around homes, hospitals, day cares, and pet kennels. The first service gets rid of any current pest issues, and immediately starts working to keep pests from coming back after they've been eliminated. A few months later, once the products break down and egg sacs start hatching, the pests usually come back - that's why we do four services per year, and more if you need. If you're having issues with covered pests in between regular services, just let us know and as needed, we'll go back out in between services at no extra cost.
What Does Lyme Disease Have To Do With Rodents In Eldersburg MD?
Lyme disease, like other zoonoses, is transmitted by a vector that picks up the pathogen during a blood meal from a vertebrate host. In Eldersburg, the spirochete bacterium that causes Lyme Disease, Borrelia burgdorferi, infects blacklegged ticks (deer ticks), which then feed on a wide variety of birds, lizards, and mammals, including mice, deer, and humans.
Deer tick larvae hatch in midsummer, and acquire infection after feeding on an infected mouse or other small animal. The white-footed mouse is common in Eldersburg, and is known to be able to carry Lyme Disease. Larvae detach after several days of feeding, then molt into nymphs and enter a nearly year-long dormant stage. After another round of feeding, nymphs fall off and molt into adults, which prefer the blood of larger mammals. Tick larvae and nymphs acquire the disease while feeding, and can transmit their infection during subsequent feedings. People are most likely to contract Lyme disease from nymphs, since nymphs are more likely to feed on humans, and are less likely to be noticed than adult ticks due to their smaller size.
A comprehensive approach to preventing tick-borne illness will incorporate treating for ticks, as well as a proactive rodent reduction program.
Rodent Control In Eldersburg, MD
Miche Pest Control provides rodent control services for mice, rats, and voles in Maryland. We get rid of rodents fast by using a combination of trapping, entry point exclusion, and outside bait stations.

We use tamper-resistant bait stations combined with products that are registered with the EPA, and labeled for use in and around homes, day cares, and pet kennels. The first service gets rid of any existing rats, mice, or voles, and immediately starts working to keep rodents from coming back after they've been eliminated. A couple months later, once the bait starts to deteriorate or run out and rodent populations start rebounding, mice and rats usually come back - that's why we do six services per year, and more if you need. If you're having issues with rodents in between regular services, just let us know and as needed, we'll go back out in between services at no extra cost.
