To develop treatments it is essential to identify the species, check if it is exotic and invasive, and know their biology and habits. That is why at Fitostinger we have personnel with extensive experience in the field.

Other pests: Common tick (Ixodes ricinus):
The tick is the largest mite. It belongs to the Ixodidae family and measures approximately 4 to 11 mm in length. It is characterized by having a dark brown color that changes to lighter shades as it feeds. It parasitizes mainly dogs and cats and adults are preferably located in the ears and in the interdigital spaces. And many people confuse them with Bedbugs.
Other pests: Common flea (Pulex irritans):
Fleas are wingless insects with laterally flattened bodies, 1,5 to 4 mm in length. They usually have a reddish-black color. Like all insects, they have a well-differentiated head, thorax and abdomen and have three pairs of legs (the third pair is highly developed and allows them to jump). The bite is very annoying and generates allergies in a high percentage of the population, as is the case with the asian hornet.
Other pests: Ants (Pulex irritans):
-
Crematogaster Scutellaris
A strictly arboreal species that nests (does not eat) on dead or live wood. It is distinguished by its coloration, red head and black thorax and abdomen. Although they have a stinger, it is not functional and does not usually sting. It can be found inside houses when logs are burned when they have been colonized during storage outside. They are a natural predator of the stands of the pine processionary.
-
Lasius niger and Lasius alienus
They are typical garden ants, monomorphic and approximately 4mm in size, the first dark and the second somewhat lighter. They abound in fruit trees or plants with aphids. Sometimes they build shelters for aphids in the form of small accumulations of soil at the base of plants.
-
Linephithema humile
Also known as Argentine Ant. Due to their high density and representing between 10 and 15% of the total animal biomass on the planet, their name diversity and their great adaptability to the environment, ants can become urban pests as a vehicle for disease or invading the interior of the houses forming ant hills.
From just 3mm the workers, dark, almost harmless, were filtering into other countries first and continents later. Now, they have become a true plague in places as distant as the United States, Europe or Japan. In fact, they are giving real headaches to the health and agricultural authorities in the regions where they live. -
Pheidole pallidula
Also called "Big-headed Ant" is a dimorphic species.
They are omnivorous, yellowish or light brown in color and very nervous movements. Along with the Argentine ant, it is the most frequent in houses in the Mediterranean area, although its effect is less because it has much less populous societies.
