Bulwark Pest Control - Phoenix AZ favorite Place

The owner of Bulwark Exterminating feels like he just won the lottery!  According to Google…

“Over 100,000 businesses were identified as Favorite Places, representing less than 1% of the 28 million U.S. businesses. We believe that our standards for selecting businesses are as selective or more selective than other companies which have run similar initiatives.” http://www.google.com/help/maps/favoriteplaces/business/faq.html#biz-faq-decal

The internet is a buzz wondering how this will work.  Cnet reported on this feature and the possibilities it holds…

“Google has taken the concept a step further, however, in the use of the QR codes to link to the Place Pages. Owners of smartphones with a camera (Google specifically said that iPhone, Android, and most BlackBerry owners would be supported, but others may work as well) and QR code scanning applications will be able to launch this information in their phone’s browser.” -CNET

It really does seem an honor to be found by Google and recognized by the information leader as a “Favorite Place.” But what is google really after?  More information?  More votes?  More visitors?  Becoming the directory of choice, finally ousting the phone books all together? Should Bulwark give into this take over?

As a business owner, Adam hopes that being recognized will bring him more business.  And he feels that it will, so why not? Appearing in a window near you soon…

We’re a Favorite Place on Google!

And yet the rasberry ant is causing major problems in Houston and south Texas. They short out stop lights, cause problems in water wells, displace local wild life, and shut down manufacturing plants. But oddly enough the University of Texas, who is currently doing research on the ever invasive Rasberry ant, doesn’t receive nearly the same amount to research this problematic Texas crazy ant…. and we call the ants crazy…

FIRE ANTS

Somethings you should know about other fire ants…

Fire ant colonies

You will find fire ants nesting outside near a kitchen, bathroom, water source, in wood, soil, masonry, block walls, and base of trees or shrubs. The fire ant can gain access into a home or structure through HVAC systems, power in and outlets and pipes. Fire ants have been found to nest in breaker panels, electrical boxes, and water boxes.

A fire ants diet is high in protein but will feed on almost everything. The fire ant has been known for eating through electrical and phone lines seeking out the wire insulation and soiled clothing. Its possible that these ants could also cause fires. The red fire ant is highly aggressive by nature and has been known for attacking non-responsive residents and pets. The bites  inflict pain and can result in nasty itchy welts.

Got ants? Get Ant Control.

Its recommended that you call a professional for all your Phoenix Ant Control needs.  We would not recommend attempting to control ants by yourself because of there aggressive nature.

But don’t get pest control, get ant control to get rid of your ants.
