Ectoparasites — live on the outside of their hosts and feed off their blood. Another characteristic of ticks is their one-of-a-kind life cycle, which goes through four stages: egg-larva-nymph-adult. A blood meal is required at each stage to further the development life cycle and reproduction. Ticks often lurk in grassy, wooded areas and can attach themselves to people or animals with whom they come into contact. They not only are annoying but also carry the risk of disease transmission.

"Very Professional. Newman pest controls services are effective. I had all the typical bugs we usually get such as: crickets, black widows, ants, and some palmetto bugs. I get these pests every year but this year has been the worst compared to all the years I've been out here in the desert. I called Newman Pest control and Erik the owner personally came out to service my home. He did an amazing job for a good price and was honest about all my pest concerns. I decided to do a bi-monthly service to keep all the pests under control. I highly recommend using Newman you will be satisfied."

"I can't say enough great stuff about Newman Pest Control and would rate them best in the valley! I recently moved but Erik was my guy for about 2 years. Honest, professional, punctual, knowledgable, courteous, and affordable. He also has great communication with his customers. He would call me if he were even going to be a few minutes late and was considerate of the fact that I have pets I dearly love and he cared to keep them safe as much as I did. Highly recommend!"

"Had some bed bugs problem in a house I just took over. Called up different companies. Erik had the most reasonable price and came out the next day to spray as I was expecting visitors for the weekend and I didn't want them sleeping with bed bugs yukk.... Erik said it would take at least a month for the bed bugs to be cleared but after the one spray it seems like it did the job. Thanks so much Erik for helping me in a pinch. Will definitely call again if need be"
