InsectoGuide is a reference site about the insects and pests people actually run into: the bite that appeared overnight, the ants on the kitchen counter, the thing moving in the basement. Roughly 500 guides cover identification first, then what to do about it, because with pests the right answer depends entirely on what you are looking at.

Who publishes it

InsectoGuide is published by SIA Digital Publisher, a company registered in Riga, Latvia (reg. no. 40203053040, Lāčplēša iela 87, Riga LV-1011). The same company publishes several other reference sites.

How the guides are made

Guides are drafted with AI assistance and edited by a person before they are published. We think it is more useful to say that plainly than to imply a newsroom that does not exist.

What we hold ourselves to instead:

• Claims are anchored to named sources. Guidance on pesticides comes from the EPA, health guidance from the CDC and MedlinePlus, and biology and control practice from university extension entomology programmes. The source is linked in the text, not just listed at the bottom.
• We do not diagnose. Bite and sting guides describe what a reaction usually looks like and name the signs that mean you should see a clinician. They are not a substitute for one.
• When something does not work, we say so and sell nothing. Guides that test a folk remedy and find it wanting carry no product recommendation.
• No invented credentials. Bylines are editorial names covering a beat: identification and insect biology, bites and insect-borne risk, control and treatment, garden pests. They are not presented as licensed professionals, and no article claims a review by an expert who did not perform one.

How the site makes money

InsectoGuide takes part in the Amazon Associates programme. Some product links earn a commission at no extra cost to the reader. Products are chosen because they fit the problem the guide is about; a commission never buys a recommendation, and pages where no product genuinely helps carry none.

Where to start

The insect bite identification chart and the ant identification guide are the two pages readers land on most. Everything else is grouped by pest on the home page, or listed newest first under all articles.
