1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,680 Speaker 1: Back to work. We go at home with Gary Sullivan. Hooray, 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: it's spring. It's spring. However, what does spring bring us? 3 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: Allergies for sure, bugs, ants, wildlife that's trying to get 4 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: into our homes. And well, today we have Alyssa. She 5 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,320 Speaker 1: is with rescue and she's going to rescue us. Solissa, 6 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: how are you. 7 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 2: Hey? Doing well? Thanks? Gary? How are you doing good? 8 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: Good? Did you watch the Ziggs last night? Yeah? 9 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: Man, I did. 10 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: I'll think it of you when I was watching that game, 11 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: said Alyssa is not going to be happy tomorrow morning. 12 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Washington state time. 13 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know it is March madness, right madness? 14 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: It is, so the ants are on the March. 15 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: Huh yeah, yeah. They tend to get a little bit 16 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 2: more active this time of the year. In the spring, 17 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: they the weather warms up and they start moving around. 18 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: Same with most infects, really and ants. 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: They're phenomenal bugs or best, very adaptable. And how do 20 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: you I guess One of the things I want to 21 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: add from a home improvement standpoint is, take a look 22 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: around the outside of your house. Any cracks and foundations, mortar, 23 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: any little tiny thing outside could be a passageway for ants. 24 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: You can start there, but those little guys seem to 25 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: get in no matter what. And then what do we do? 26 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: All right, Well, we find the best way to do 27 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: it is you want to get them at the colony 28 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: where where they are. Like I said, there's little cracks 29 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: and crevices. They've got colonies, you know, all over the place, 30 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: right and you know I can be able to find 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: that colony. But you can tempt them with bait. And 32 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 2: so you have them take the bait back to their colony, 33 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 2: share it with all their friends there and knock every 34 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: knock the ant proubble back at the source. 35 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: So where do you put the bait and what's the 36 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: bait look like? 37 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: Well, we carry a bait station that is child resistant 38 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: and it can housed both a protein and a sugar separately, 39 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 2: and it's a nice kind of a fresh gel form. 40 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: You can put that out where you're seeing, say the 41 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: ants roaming around in your house. If you're seeing a 42 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: few hanging out in your bathroom kitchen, they tend to 43 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: go where there's a moisture source to start, and so 44 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: usually it's bathrooms kitchen. Is that sort of thing. The 45 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 2: only recommend the big recommendation I have is do not 46 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: put them on the counter, even if that's where you're 47 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: seeing the ants crawling around, because when you put the 48 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: bait station out, that's the ants that are scouting for 49 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: food are going to tell all their other friends that 50 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: that's where the food is. And then you're going to 51 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: have this super highway of ants. And you don't want 52 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 2: that on your counter. Put that down on the floor, 53 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: on the floor where you're seeing it. 54 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: Yes, you know, listen when I said the ants are 55 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: phenomenal little creatures, and you brought up about your base 56 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: stage and the rescue at control product that we're talking 57 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: about having protein and sugars, because depending on what the 58 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: temperature is, those sort of guys change, they change their 59 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: food source, right, that's correct. 60 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, And different ants are looking for different things, so 61 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: some are feeding one part of the nest and another 62 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: part of the s so you need to be able 63 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: to feed more parts of the colony to knock it back. 64 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: And so you have and you're a different different temperature, 65 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: diferent time of year. If they are growing more ants 66 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: than any more proteins. 67 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's what I mean by they're so phenomenal, 68 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: They really are. So we put the bait stations out 69 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: and we attract ants. So and I know exactly what 70 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: you mean. I've used your product works fantastically, but you 71 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: kind of freaked the first day or two you put 72 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: it out. I had them where they were getting in 73 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: through a wall in the bathroom and that's the first 74 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: place I saw them. Then we start, you know, then 75 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: we started keeping our eyes open. You started finding them 76 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: in the kitchen and everything else, but you could you 77 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: could tell they were coming from that bathroom area. I 78 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: put that trap out. Then I woke up and my 79 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: wife is just looking at me, like, look what you've 80 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: done now, And I go, well, they found there, they 81 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: found their McDonald's. I mean, they're they're happy, they're having 82 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: a great time. This is exactly what we want to do. 83 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: And it was about three days and that population just 84 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: started dwindling. And I guess that's what usually happens. And 85 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: how long does it take to get rid of them? 86 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: You know, it depends on the size of the colony. 87 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: That sounds like a pretty good size. We usually see 88 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 2: the mob debit station and within a day or two 89 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: it's died down and you don't see anymore. About three days. 90 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: That tells you've got a pretty good sized colony, and 91 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 2: so you've got to keep that bait station active, keep 92 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 2: an eye on it. Is there enough Uh? Is there 93 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: enough bait still left in the bait station after a 94 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: few days. If you've got a mobbing like that, replace it. 95 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: If if you've got a large colony. So it depends 96 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: on the size of the colony. If they keep them 97 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: and keep feeding them, yeah, yeah, exactly, the keep feeding 98 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: them and then it should be with it a few days. 99 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 2: It knocks it back, but you're right that it does. 100 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: It is unnerving. Yeah, you think you're trapping them, and 101 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: know what you're trying to do is you want them 102 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: to come right. You want them to tell o their 103 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: friends because they are taking it back, and you want 104 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: them to be able to carry the bait. And what 105 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: they're doing is they're carrying it right there at their 106 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 2: mouth back and so you want it to be kind 107 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: of that little like solid jelfam. But you're right. They 108 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: are fascinating creatures. They tell each other to go there. 109 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: They're all looking for different foods and they've all got 110 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: a job and uh, yeah, they are very organized. 111 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: Well, we're starting to decorate for Thanksgiving, oh for them, Yeah, 112 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: there you go. Gosh, it won't be long. Probably somewhere 113 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: in the United States. This is a problem pretty much 114 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: right now, and if it's not right now, it will 115 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: be in the next week or two. Is carpenter bees 116 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: those things that look like big jet liners flying around 117 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: your shed or your wood deck. Is there anything we 118 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: can do to prevent them? Or once we see them, 119 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: how do we eliminate them? 120 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we have a trap for those, and 121 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: we recommend putting them out, the carpenter bee traps right 122 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: when you start seeing them flying around, or before that, 123 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: when you know it's about that time, because what they're 124 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: doing is they're looking for the next site, and you 125 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: don't want them drilling holes in your structures, your decks, 126 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 2: any of that. So it's a sticky trap and you 127 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: just you put it out and you put it out 128 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: right where you expect them or you know they're going 129 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: to try and start cause damage or around your wood structures, 130 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: to protect them, and you get them right right in 131 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: there with it. 132 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: Those bees, those sharpener bees, they're frightening creatures. They're big. 133 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: They're as big as my thumb. 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're big. The furry it's uh yeah, they're a 135 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: litt unnerving. 136 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: And they're drilling holes. They drill the most. They do 137 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: a better hole drill than Black and Decker. 138 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 2: Does you know, you're right? You're right they do. It's 139 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: a perfectly circular hole and you think, oh wow, what 140 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: did that now? A carbon bee? 141 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're not really spraying any chemicals and that's 142 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: a plus the trap again, have used them with much success. 143 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: It's a it's a wild looking thing. It's yellow and 144 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: green and about what nine ten inches long and maybe 145 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: an inch and a half wide. But they're attracted to 146 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: that big time. 147 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: They are. They are. We actually scan the retina of 148 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: insects when we're starting to develop products to determine which 149 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: colors and patterns they find most attractive. So underneath the 150 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: blue layer is a specific pattern and colors that those 151 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 2: carbon the bees fine most attractive, and so that draws 152 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 2: them to the glue as well, so they just fly 153 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: right into it as well. 154 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I've had people call the show and say, well, like, 155 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: how many bees does the trap because there's like I 156 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: don't know, there's like five six a bunch of bees 157 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: flying around my wood shed. Well, how many bees will 158 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: it attract? Do you have to change it out very often, 159 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: or how's that work? 160 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: Well, it's outside and it's a sticky trap. So I'd 161 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: say after about thirty days, you're probably going to have 162 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: enough de brie in the glue, and you want that 163 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: glue to be nice and sticky to replace it every 164 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 2: thirty days, if not sooner, depending on how many get 165 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 2: on there. You're right, they're pretty big, so you know, 166 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 2: you could fill that thing up pretty easily. But I'd 167 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 2: say you probably could get You could easily have twenty 168 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 2: on there, no problem and still have room.
