Photo Album: Springtails Popping Up in Belmar, NJ
As I was getting ready to treat the property of a new Home Protection Plan client in Belmar, NJ I came across a large number of springtails by the window sill.
A Lot of Springtails
As I was about to start treating the home, I found a large number of springtails on the windowsill.
Nuisance Pest
Springtails are tiny critters that get their unique name from their ability to jump from place to place, similar to a flea. They're mostly a nuisance pest, but they do damage plants. They don't bite or sting and are generally harmless to humans.
Treating for Springtails
I'm going to apply a liquid residual directly to the springtails and along the entire perimeter of the home.
In a Matter of Time
In a short amount of time, they are eliminated.
