Beetle control is imperative, so if you notice beetles around these areas of your home, consider reaching out to a local pest control specialist.

Interestingly, beetles range in size from less than a millimeter to tropical giants over six inches long. Plus, various types of beetles are found in a plethora of habitats because they can adapt to nearly any climate. While there are thousands of types of beetles, the following are generally the most common species.
- Ladybird Beetle (Ladybug) – the common ladybug helps control local ecosystems because they are a natural predator of many insects, such as aphids and other garden critters.
- Ground Beetle – generally found under rocks, logs and other debris, ground beetles are diverse in size and coloration, but typically have flattened bodies and prominent mandibles and help control other insect populations.
- Dung Beetle – an important player in natural ecosystems, the dung beetle feeds on animal dung, which helps improve soil health and nutrient cycling.
- Japanese Beetle – an invasive species, Japanese beetles are not harmless and these metallic green beetles can cause significant damage to plants, particularly roses, grapes, and fruit trees.
- Carpet Beetle – while small and oval-shaped, carpet beetles are potentially damaging species to carpets, clothing and stored food as the larvae of carpet beetles feed on natural fibers.
- Weevil – another nuisance pest, weevils are small beetles with elongated snouts and often infest stored grains, nuts, and seeds.
- Colorado Potato Beetle – a notorious pest of potatoes and similar crops, the Colorado Potato beetle can defoliate plants if left unchecked.
- Click Beetle – named (and known for) the clicking sound they make when flipped onto their backs, the click beetle has an elongated body and can "click" themselves upright by snapping their thorax.
- Stag Beetle – generally harmless, the stag beetle is a large insect with impressive mandibles resembling the antlers of a stag and attracted to lights at night.
- Firefly (Lightning Bug) – the common firefly that lights up warm summer nights is a beetle known for their bioluminescent abdomens.

Jon was able to squeeze me in same day when I had about 30 yellowjackets in my kitchen! 30 min later he was suited up in my kitchen studying them and looking for their point of entry. About 45 to 60 min later, he was done both inside and outside. My family really appreciated his prompt arrival and care he took as he worked. Will definitely recommend him to anyone seeking pest control!

Josh was at the Elm Meadows Condo helping my neighbor with a fly infestation in her home. I explained my situation with very aggressive bees in the front porch and without hesitation he took care of the problem. He didn’t make excuses that I wasn’t on the schedule, he saw my situation and proceeded to help me. That’s is an act of kindness and I’m so grateful. 🙏🏼
