Out of over 12,000 species of ants that have been classified so far, 4-5 types are especially more common in UAE –
All species prefer warm, moist environments with food. This causes them to seek kitchens especially those that contain easily accessible foods (unsealed bags of cereal, bread, dirty dishes), bathrooms that usually have some moisture and sinks that may have remnants of their diet. Pharaoh Ants in particular, prefer the constant artificial warm temperature provided indoors.
They are Omnivorous pests that follow scents and odors. They have a varied diet and especially prefer sweet foods, protein, breads and liquids. Carpenter Ants specifically thrive on decaying wood. This eusocial pest sends its scouts to look for food sources. Once a source is identified, these ants send pheromones to guide other ants to the location.
A Queen ant mates with short-lived male ants and lays hundreds to thousands of eggs per day and a few millions in her lifetime.
The life cycle of an ant comprises of four stages and can take between 6-10 weeks to complete.
The lifespan of Ants depends upon its species and its caste –
Male Ants – Die after a few days of mating. They have a lifespan of a few weeks.
Queen Ants – Could live for over 10 years. Pharaoh Ant Queens live for 2-3 years
Worker Ants – Have a lifespan ranging between 2 months to a few years. The workers of the commonly found Odorous House Ant and Carpenter Ant could live for 2-3 years.
The dreaded Pharaoh Ant however only lives for 2-3 months. Dreaded because their ability to split and form multiple colonies under threat, makes it hard to get rid of them.
One of the oldest known human parasites, bed bugs are nocturnal creatures that live off the blood of humans and pets.

Firstly, bed bugs are not a sign of poor sanitation. They can be found in any space that sees a lot of travelers including hotels, poorly ventilated accommodations and hostels. They also find themselves in vehicles, luggage and even second-hand clothing or furniture.
They infest mattresses, wooden bed frames, any wooden furniture nearby, door moldings and any crevices.
Bed Bugs are an ectoparasite and exclusively feed on blood.
The average female bed bug may lay around 1-5 eggs per day and up to 250 eggs in her lifetime. It takes approximately 7 weeks for an egg to grow into an adult.
They usually have a lifespan of 6 months. However, they can survive for months without feeding. These are one of the hardest pests to get rid of without professional help due to a very high likelihood of missing their barely visible eggs hidden in the lining of mattresses, upholstery and any cracks or crevices in furniture.
With evidence to indicate that they have been in existence for over 300 million years, the highly adaptable and resilient Cockroach is now found in every continent of the world including Antarctica.
Out of 4600 cockroach species, about 30 of them have been associated with human habitats. They are nocturnal creatures that thrive on social interaction. They communicate with each other and tend to send signals of food sources to fellow cockroaches using pheromones due to which they manage to aggregate and co-exist effectively. if you see a cockroach in your house then you should book our perfect cockroach pest control service for your home.
Some of the most prevalent species found in human habitats are –
The average size of this creature ranges from 1 inch to 2.5 inches and even though most species are equipped with wings, very few species have been known to fly.
The most common type found in the UAE is the German cockroach. It is found indoors and prefers a warmer environment but can survive cold weather. Their color varies between Tan-Dark brown and can be distinguished by two parallel, dark stripes behind the head.
They infest mattresses, wooden bed frames, any wooden furniture nearby, door moldings and any crevices.
They are Omnivorous insects that can and will eat almost anything they come across. This includes – All kinds of bread, meat, cooked food, glue, clothes, hair, dead insects, soap, all kinds of waste, skin flakes and even dead wood! However, they can go a month without food and a week without water.
A female cockroach could produce up to 8 egg capsules containing appx. 40 eggs i.e. 1 female to give birth to 200-400 offspring.
The most common type in UAE – The German Cockroach has one of the highest reproductive rates among its species. Due to this, in moist, food-rich spaces, less than a handful of cockroaches can cause a severe infestation within 6-8 months of entering a premise.
Under favorable circumstances, a cockroach could live for 1 year. They have an adult life span of about 6 months and take around 3-5 months to develop from an egg to an adult.
In addition, these resilient insects with their diverse food resources, ability to survive being submerged under water and their capacity to gradually develop resistance to toxic substances, make the process of complete extermination more complicated.
Fleas include 2,500 species of small flightless insects that survive as external parasites of mammals and birds. Fleas live by consuming blood, or hematophagy, from their hosts. Their legs are long with the hind pair well adapted for jumping. Al Waha Hygiene is one of the most trusted companies that serve you fleas control services in a very good manner.
The three most common types of fleas are –
Oriental rat fleas can carry the coccobacillus Yersinia pestis. The infected fleas feed on rodent vectors of this bacterium, such as the black rat, Rattus rattus, and then infect human populations with the plague, as has happened repeatedly from ancient times. They are carriers of dangerous bacteria.
Flea bites often appear in clusters or lines of two bites, and can remain itchy and inflamed for up to several weeks afterwards. Fleas can lead to secondary hair loss as a result of frequent scratching and biting by the animal. They can also cause anemia in extreme cases.
Fleas feed on a wide variety of warm-blooded vertebrates including humans, dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, ferrets, rats, mice and birds. Fleas normally specialize in one host species or group of species, but can often feed but not reproduce on other species.
Fleas breed close to the resting and sleeping places of the host, in dust, dirt, rubbish, cracks in floors or walls, carpets, animal burrows and birds’ nests. High humidity is required for development.
There are four stages in the life cycle of a flea: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Depending on the environmental temperature and humidity levels, the total life cycle will take anywhere from a couple weeks to many months.
A flea might live a year and a half under ideal conditions. These include the right temperature, food supply, and humidity. Generally speaking, though, an adult flea only lives for 2 or 3 months. Without a host for food, a flea’s life might be as short as a few days.
A silverfish is a small, primitive, wingless insect. Its common name has been derived from the animal’s silvery light grey color, combined with the fish-like appearance of its movements. The silverfish’s diet consists of carbohydrates such as sugar or starches.
The most common types of moths are the
A silverfish can consume book bindings, carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar. They will damage wallpaper in order to consume the paste. Silverfish can also cause damage to tapestries. Other substances they may eat include cotton, dead insects, linen, silk, leftover crumbs.
The female lays the tiny eggs in any cracks and crevices that she can find. The eggs are white, oval, and about one millimeter long. They may hatch in weeks or months, depending on the environmental conditions. A silverfish usually lays fewer than 100 eggs in her lifetime.
The silverfish nymphs that hatch out of the eggs are about 1mm long and paler in color than their adult counterparts. Silverfish nymphs will molt their external shell 6 – 7 times before they reach sexual maturity which can take anywhere from several months up to three years. Silverfish continue to molt even after they become adults, which is unusual for an insect.
Silverfish are long-lived insects. They may live for two to eight years, depending on their environment.
Spiders are air-breathing creatures that have eight legs and chelicerae with fangs able to inject venom. There are about 40,000 known species of spiders. Most spiders use a web to catch their prey, which is usually insects. Spiders create silk from spinneret glands in their abdomen that is extremely strong.
The seven most common types of house spiders are the
Though most known spiders are almost exclusively carnivorous, a few species, primarily of jumping spiders, supplement their diet with plant matter such as sap, nectar, and pollen.
Spiders reproduce by laying their eggs in a sac. Female spiders can carry the egg sac wherever they go or deposit it in a web. The egg sacs can contain hundreds of eggs. After about two to three weeks, the eggs hatch into live spiders. It takes about one year for the hatchlings to reach adulthood.
All spiders, from the tiniest jumping spider to the largest tarantula, have the same general life cycle. They mature in three stages: egg, spiderling, and adult. Though the details of each stage vary from one species to another, they are all very similar.
In general, males have a shorter lifespan than females and it varies in every species of course, but these are common generalities. In general, males live for ~1-1.5 months. Females of most spiders tend to die either after laying their eggs, or after the eggs hatch and the juveniles are dispersed. Maximal span is 2-3 years, with most of them dying before 1 year of age.
Ticks are typically 3 to 5 mm long. They are external parasites, living by feeding on the blood of mammals, birds, and sometimes reptiles and amphibians. Ticks are widely distributed around the world, especially in warm, humid climates. Adults have ovoid or pear-shaped bodies, which become engorged with blood when they feed, and eight legs. Ticks find their hosts by detecting animals’ breath and body odors, or by sensing body heat, moisture, and vibrations. They are incapable of flying or jumping, but many tick species particularly lie in wait in a position known as “questing”. While questing, ticks cling to leaves and grasses by their third and fourth pairs of legs.
The two most common types of ticks are the
Some ticks attach quickly, while others wander around looking for thinner skin, such as is found on the ears of mammals. Depending on the species and life stage, preparing to feed can take from 10 minutes to two hours. On locating a suitable feeding spot, the tick grasps the host’s skin and cuts into the surface. They extract blood by cutting a hole in the host’s epidermis, into which they insert their hypostome, and keep the blood from clotting by excreting an anticoagulant.
The female lays the tiny eggs in any cracks and crevices that she can find. The eggs are white, oval, and about one millimeter long. They may hatch in weeks or months, depending on the environmental conditions. A silverfish usually lays fewer than 100 eggs in her lifetime.
Ticks have four stages to their lifecycle, namely egg, larva, nymph, and adult. Ticks taking at least a year to complete their lifecycle.
Ticks can live up to 3 years and it depends on the species. A tic’s survival and development are dependent on the environment and the availability of hosts.
