Blood Feeder Pest Control

Blood Feeder Pest Control

We have selected the most common blood feeding insects found in North America. Find the products we recommend to control or get rid of these pest in the 'Category' menu to the left.

Bed Bugs - These pest include the resurgence of the Bedbug (bed bug). Bed bugs are making a strong comeback after almost being eliminated and are of high concern because they are spreading again at an alarming pace. For those of you who have tried everything and still have bed bugs you can use our MGK Integrated approach MGK Ultimate Bed Bug Kit to finally get rid of them.

Stable Fly - The habitat of the stable fly, as suggested by its common name, is almost anywhere that horses, cattle, and other agricultural animals can be found (especially inside barns and stables).

Ticks - Ticks are blood-feeding parasites that are often found in tall grass and shrubs where they will wait to attach to a passing host. A tick will attach itself to its host by inserting its chelicerae (cutting mandibles) and hypostome (feeding tube) into the skin. The hypostome is covered with re-curved teeth and serves as an anchor.

Physical contact is the only method of transportation for ticks. Ticks do not jump or fly, although they may drop from their perch and fall onto a host. Some species stalk the host from ground level, emerging from cracks or crevices located in the woods or even inside a home or kennel, where infestations of "seed ticks" (the six-legged stage of newborn ticks) can attack in numbers up to 3,000 at a time. Weak or elderly dogs and puppies are particularly endangered and can die from anemia.

Fleas - Fleas attack a wide variety of warm-blooded vertebrates including dogs, cats, humans, chickens, rabbits, squirrels, rats, ferrets, and mice. Fleas are holometabolous insects, going through the three life cycle stages of larva, pupa, and imago (adult). The flea life cycle begins when the female lays after feeding.

Mites - have exploited an incredible array of habitats, and because of their small size, most are microscopic, most go totally unnoticed. Many live freely in the soil or water, but there are also a large number of species that live as parasites on plants, animals, and some that feed on mold.

Some of the plant pests include the so-called spider mites, thread-footed mites and the gall mites. Among the species that attack animals are members of the Sarcoptic Mange mites, which burrow under the skin. Demodex mites are parasites that live in or near the hair follicles of mammals, including humans.

Mosquitoes - Mosquitoes are a vector agent that carries disease-causing viruses and parasites from person to person without catching the disease themselves. The principal mosquito borne diseases are the viral diseases yellow fever and dengue fever, and malaria. Adult flying mosquitoes frequently rest in grass, shrubbery or other foliage.
