Boxelder Exterminator in Boise, Idaho

Boxelder bugs are aptly named for the maple and seed-bearing boxelder trees on which they feed and lay eggs during summer. They are nuisances in the fall as they search for places to rest in warm and dry conditions, seen congregating in warm spots before migrating indoors through cracks and crevices. During the change in season, they invade in large numbers, becoming a nuisance to homeowners. You'll know you have boxelder bugs by their distinctive coloring: black with reddish or orange markings on their back. Their bodies look quite flattened and oval, measuring about 1/2 an inch long, with six legs and two antennae.
