Ever wonder what’s hiding inside those little mud nests around your home? Swipe to find out! 👀

These are mud dauber nests! Mud daubers are solitary wasps that build their nests out of mud, commonly attaching them to brick, siding, garages, porches, and other protected areas.

On this job, the nests were removed and the surrounding area was treated to help control activity around the structure.

While mud daubers are generally less aggressive than many other wasps, their nests can quickly become an unwanted addition to your home or business.

Bald-faced Hornet Nest Removal

Despite their name, bald-faced hornets are actually a type of aerial yellowjacket!

They build large, enclosed paper nests that are most commonly found in trees and shrubs, but they can also be found around homes and other structures. Their nests start small in the spring and can grow significantly throughout the summer as the colony gets larger.

Bald-faced hornets can be beneficial because they prey on other insects, but they are also very protective of their nest. If they feel that the colony is being threatened, they can become aggressive and sting repeatedly.

Because of this, we do not recommend trying to remove an active nest yourself, especially one that is in an area where people or pets regularly spend time.

Here’s a look at one of our recent bald-faced hornet nest removals! Our technician treated the colony and safely removed the nest.

If you find a hornet or wasp nest around your home, give Kellco a call at 404-762-9429 !

Drain flies can be difficult to eliminate because the real problem is often hiding below the surface!

These small flies lay their eggs in the moist, organic buildup that collects inside sink drains and other plumbing areas. Once the eggs hatch, the larvae feed and develop within that buildup.

The first step toward controlling drain flies is thoroughly cleaning the affected drains with an enzyme-based cleaner—and continuing regular drain maintenance to help prevent future buildup.

Once the drains have been cleaned, our technicians can apply a targeted treatment designed to kill fly eggs and larvae, helping speed up the elimination process.

If you have drain flies in your home, feel free to give our office a call at 404-762-9429, and schedule an appointment with us today! 💚

Clogged gutters can become more than just a drainage problem! 🌱🏠

When leaves, dirt, and debris build up in your gutters, they can hold moisture and create the perfect environment for unwanted pests. Mosquitoes can use standing water to breed, while ants, cockroaches, and other insects may take advantage of the damp organic material. Debris-filled gutters can also provide hiding and nesting spots for pests right along your roofline.

Keeping your gutters clean and draining properly is a simple way to make your home a little less inviting to unwanted visitors. 🐜🦟

And if your gutters are growing their own garden… it might be time for a cleaning. 😂🌿

American Cockroaches in Georgia

If you’ve spotted a BIG roach around your home lately, you’re not alone!

American cockroaches are one of the large cockroach species commonly found throughout Georgia. Adults can reach around 2 inches long and are typically reddish-brown to chestnut in color, with a lighter-colored border behind the head.

Why are we seeing them in summer?

Georgia’s warm, humid summers provide plenty of the moisture and warmth cockroaches need to thrive. American cockroaches prefer dark, damp environments and are commonly associated with areas like sewers, basements, crawlspaces, drains, and other protected spaces.

They’re also primarily nocturnal, so you’re much more likely to catch one wandering around after dark.

Why do they come inside your home?

American cockroaches can occasionally make their way indoors while searching for moisture, food, or shelter. Cracks around doors and windows, gaps around pipes and utility lines, and other small openings can give them an easy way inside.

Seeing an occasional American cockroach doesn’t necessarily mean you have an indoor infestation, but frequent sightings are worth paying attention to!

A few ways to make your home less inviting:
• Seal cracks and gaps around the exterior
• Repair leaks and reduce excess moisture
• Keep food and trash properly sealed
• Reduce clutter and potential hiding places
• Keep an eye on damp areas around the home

Fun fact: Despite their name, American cockroaches aren’t actually native to America! They’ve simply become very well established throughout the United States, including here in Georgia.

Termites don’t usually make themselves known until the damage is already done. Unlike many pests, they work quietly behind the scenes often inside walls, crawlspaces, and wooden structures where homeowners rarely look.

Here’s how termites can impact your home:
• They feed on wood and other cellulose materials.
• Over time, they can weaken floors, walls, support beams, and structural framing.
• Damage can become expensive if left untreated.
• Because they’re hidden, infestations often go unnoticed until significant damage has already occurred.

The good news? Early detection makes all the difference. Regular inspections can help catch termite activity before it turns into a major repair.

If you think you may have termites, don’t wait—having your home inspected could save you thousands in future repairs.
