It's a pest-filled job, but someone's got to do it, and that person would be Chris Mei - the "Bug Lady". After launching her own Pest Control business, Chris is reaping the wing-filled rewards of Stateline Area insects. With a tattoo of a dragonfly on her right arm, a butterfly on her wrist and a mosquito below her shoulder, Chris' fascination with insects is easy to see.
Chris is able to keep more than 300 customers safe from pesky insects. Although her new business was an instant success, her journey to opening it was a long one. One of Chris' first jobs after high school was managing a gas station. One day the man who performed pest control at the station told Chris he was looking for a woman to learn the art of pest control.

Ants, house crickets, cockroaches, mice and spiders are the biggest problem in the Rock River Valley. Box Elder bugs are more of a fall pest, but they emerge in the spring and can show up on warm, sunny areas like your garage doors or the side of your house. Cluster flies also become active in the spring, while they pose no health hazard, they are a nuisance.
Preventing insects and other pests from entering your home or professional establishment in the first place is always your best bet. You can prevent a lot of insects from coming into your home by treating around the outside of your home's foundation. If you do it early enough and aggressively enough, pest control products are very effective in preventing problems.
