Roaches, rats and mice, bed bugs, and other pests can all cause or worsen health issues. These pests can cause a variety of issues like allergies, asthma, hantavirus, and sleep deprivation. A pest control company can help you maintain a pest-free home to avoid suffering from any health issues. Discover the details:
Asthma & Allergies
Scurrying pests tend to leave droppings or shed their skin when they’re hiding in your home. There are proteins and particles in a pest’s droppings, skin, and body parts that can irritate a person’s lungs or make allergies flare.
Allergies and asthma can drastically affect your health-related quality of life, as you may shy away from certain activities due to fear of an asthma attack or your severe allergy symptoms may make it difficult to enjoy simple activities. The National Exterminating team is here to help make your home a source of pest-free, allergen-free comfort.
Hantavirus
Rodents, such as mice and rats, are susceptible to contracting a strain of hantavirus. Once the rodents contract the hantavirus, they will shed the virus in their feces, urine, and saliva. Most commonly, the virus infects people via airborne transmission. Another way a person may contract the virus is if he unknowingly touches an object that has the virus on it then touches his mouth or nose.
Symptoms of the virus ranges from mild to severe, and medical care is necessary. Because your health can be seriously compromised due to the hantavirus infection, it’s vital to partner with a pest control company to eliminate all rodents.
Sleep Deprivation
Bed bugs are a main source of sleep deprivation, anxiety, and frustration. Although they do not carry viruses, they can have a major impact on your health-related quality of life. When you are dealing with a bed bug infestation, you are not only the victim of rashes and bites, but you also may experience negative psychological effects. If you cannot get a restful night sleep, your body cannot rejuvenate and recharge for the following day. Understandably, you will not be able to perform your best during the day if you cannot sleep at night.
