Help Solving a Bug Issue

Robert Ortega
  • Dallas, TX
Posted

Can anyone tell me what type of contractor I need? I had a new master bathroom installed and I have started to suspect moisture is gathering in that attic. My new tenants have commented that earwig bugs have been spotted only in the master bathroom, in large numbers, since they moved in (these bugs are attracted to moisture). We have sealed most cracks, caulked the tub and toilet, and yet they still come. My hunch is that they are raining from the ceiling. Who do you call to inspect something like this? Bug control companies refuse to go to this spot in the attic and I need someone who can property diagnose and possibly repair.

I've never heard of a pest control company that refuses to go in an attic or crawlspace. That's sometimes where the problems are. Unless your attic spot is inherently dangerous with known asbestos or about to fall through.
