Spider Control
There are over 90 types of spiders in Alabama. Due to their small size, this creepy-crawly typically goes unseen. Additionally, their natural home range is ever-changing, leaving humans to find them in relatively unexpected places. The most startling can be in your luggage, cars, and shoes. Luckily, not all of them are as menacing looking as the Spiny Backed Orb Weaver or as poisonous as the Brown Recluse, and many can be quite beautiful. Regardless of their beauty, however, the discomfort of living with these creatures in your home is undeniable.
Getting rid of this pest is especially important because certain types of spider bites can send you to the hospital with skin irritation, severe skin and limb damage, vomiting, and cramping. If you have an allergy to stinging insects, a compromised immune system, or young children, the result of a bite can be more dangerous.

Ant Control
Ants can venture into your home in search of shelter, water, and food. You'll find them in humid places like bathrooms and under sinks. Pantries and pet food bowls are easy targets for a quick meal. Heavy rains and frozen ground can push them to become your guests.
They carry bacteria that can contaminate surfaces wherever they touch, such as your kitchen counter, inside drawers, and bathroom sinks. The bacteria can be transferred to humans by eating contaminated food, through an open wound, or the odd ant that crawls into an unsuspecting mouth or across a toothbrush.
In Alabama, the main types of ants are:
- Carpenter Ants: One common type of ant found in the state is the carpenter ant. These ants can cause significant damage to wooden structures, including homes and buildings. They excavate galleries within the wood, weakening its structural integrity over time.
- Fire Ants: Another common ant species in Alabama is the fire ant. These ants are known for their painful stings, which can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. They build large mounds in outdoor areas, such as lawns and gardens, posing a threat to both humans and pets.
- House Ants: House ants are also prevalent in Alabama and can be found indoors, particularly in kitchens and pantries. While they are not typically harmful, they can contaminate food and become a nuisance.
Cockroach Control
Cockroaches are notorious for getting into pet food. That is when they aren't foraging through your cupboards contaminating your food. A cockroach infestation's physical and psychological trauma is off-the-charts. They're filthy, destroy our homes' sanctity, and are nearly impossible to get rid of on your own. But luckily, you've got Defense Pest Solutions at your disposal, the top-rated control specialists in town. Nobody does it better, and we'll begin by naming the culprits most likely to be causing your problems.
While there are more than 30 species in Alabama, these are your four prime suspects.
- The American: This beefy, reddish-brown cockroach averages more than 1.5" in length. He's a fast runner despite his girth and sports a ridiculous yellow headband. American cockroaches can fly, although only short, awkward distances. They live outdoors and indoors and are common repeat offenders.
- The German: This roach is brown or tan and smaller, about 1" long. No headband on this guy, although you might see two dark stripes on his back. They have wings, too, but rarely fly and live almost exclusively indoors. Germans are considered the worst pests and the hardest to exterminate.
- The Asian: It looks much like the German but thinner and has longer wings. It's a strong flier and very attracted to light. Like most roaches, they eat everything, but this species is particularly fond of vegetation.
- The Oriental: Similar in size to the German and Asian, but its coloring is shiny black. It has short, dysfunctional wings and doesn't fly. Orientals prefer very damp environments indoors or out. They can't swim but are good at floating and can stay underwater for 40 minutes.
