FOUR SOLUTIONS BOOKLICE REMOVAL SERVICE OVERVIEW

OUR SERVICES:

• Booklice (Psocoptera)

  Booklice on walls and ceiling also commonly known as mold mites, mold bugs in Singapore

   

  Size:

  Booklice are very small insects, typically measuring between 1 to 2 mm in length. Their tiny size makes them difficult to spot, especially in hidden, humid areas of homes and offices.

  Appearance:

  Booklice are usually pale in color, ranging from translucent white to light brown or gray. They have soft bodies, short antennae, and lack wings in most cases. Their small size and color allow them to blend in with dusty or moldy environments.

  Life-Time:

  The lifespan of a booklouse varies depending on environmental conditions, especially humidity and temperature. Under ideal conditions (high humidity and warmth), booklice can live for up to 6 months, during which they can continue to reproduce rapidly.

  Maturity to Breed:

  Booklice reach reproductive maturity within 3 to 4 weeks of hatching. They thrive in environments with moisture, such as kitchens, bathrooms, and storage areas, especially if mold or mildew is present.

  Number of Offspring per Egg:

  Each female booklouse lays small batches of eggs, usually around 1 to 3 at a time. These eggs are often hidden in crevices near mold or organic material, making it hard to detect infestations early.

  Description:

  Booklice are commonly found in areas with high humidity and moisture, such as near damp walls, books, wallpaper, and stored food. They feed on mold, mildew, and organic materials, which makes them thrive in humid conditions. Although harmless to humans, booklice can cause damage to books, papers, food, and wood over time. They often go unnoticed until infestations grow, leading to more significant problems if untreated.
