Having an insect infestation isn’t rare. No home or business has every gone without getting visited at some time by those mangy pests. In our home state of Minnesota, our states ecosystems are quite lush and therefore we have a lot of different insects. Why you ask. Example, Anoka, MN is home to over 100 species of trees and bushes, and because of this we are more vulnerable to needing a bug exterminator.
It’s never fun to have to call the exterminator, but if it wasn’t for them, our homes might risk significant damage. If you are in the Minneapolis, MN area, and you are in need of exterminator services, consider our team at Eco Tech. We take a different approach to the extermination process that sets us apart from the competition and keeps your family and pets safe.

Bugs invading your house is not a pleasant experience for homeowners.

If you have noticed an influx of bugs that have made their way into your Minneapolis, MN home, it is time to request some professional assistance. At Eco Tech, we are a bug extermination company that provides all natural extermination solutions for your home.
Box elder bugs are commonly found in Minneapolis and the surrounding suburbs. Wherever box elder trees as well as maple trees reside, the Box elder bugs will follow. In the warmer months, these bugs hang out on trees, bricks, decks, siding, etc., so they can get direct sunlight. During the warmer months of the year, these pests lay eggs, causing more and more Boxelder bugs to hang around your property. The real issues occur when the winter months hit. Often times, Boxelder bugs enter into homes through the tiniest holes or cracks and get into the walls of your home to help insulate and keep themselves warm during the colder months of the year. Next thing you know, your home has been infested with Boxelder bugs. Rather than trying to remove these unwanted pests on your own, leave it up to our experienced team at Eco Tech.
Box elder bugs are common throughout Minnesota. They are black in color and are worked by red lines along their back and sides. Their wings are flat and red in color and they usually grow between 11 to 15 mm in length.
Although they may seem common all the time, in actuality box elders do not nest indoors year-round. They make their homes in box elder, maple and ash trees during warmer seasons and migrate into buildings and homes to find shelter from the cold. Due to the cold temperatures in Andover, Coon Rapids, Oak Grove and Ham Lake, Minnesota it is common to have box elder bugs nest in your home. Oftentimes, when the weather cools off, the bugs will sense the warmer temperature and make their way indoors and usually in areas of a structure’s walls. Although they do not cause damage to buildings, their droppings are unappealing and can leave stains on furniture, carpet, clothes and other fabrics.
