🐜 Understanding Pests: Why Education Matters
Pest control should start with clarity. This library helps you identify common Las Vegas pests, understand what they’re doing, and learn how to prevent repeat problems.
At EXO Environmental, we believe pest control works best when homeowners and businesses understand what they’re dealing with. That’s why we built this Pest Library — a simple, searchable resource focused on the pests most common in Las Vegas and surrounding areas.
Each entry is designed to be useful (not fluffy): what it is, what it means when you see it, common causes, prevention tips, and safe control options. If you want help quickly, you can always call or message us — but this page gives you a solid head start.
Faster Identification
Know what you’re looking at and what to do next before it spreads.
Smarter Decisions
Understand risk level, likely nesting areas, and best-first steps.
Lower Long-Term Costs
Prevention beats reaction — and costs less than repeat treatments.
More Peace of Mind
The unknown is scary. Clear answers make the problem manageable.
Find the Pest. Learn the Fix.
Search by name, filter by category, and expand each card for quick facts and next steps.
