Below is a list of the insects you can expect in Palm Harbor during the year.
Spring: The Season of Pests
With rising temperatures and humidity during spring, spring is the season when pests like mosquitoes, ants, and termites are active. Mosquitoes prefer breeding in still water, and thus spring is the season when breeding is most active. Ants begin foraging for food and water and move indoors for shelter. Termites also start swarming during the spring season, which can lead to massive damage to property if not attended to early. Spring precautionary pest control is needed to manage these pests before they become a significant problem.
Summer: Pest Season's Peak
Summer in Palm Harbor, being humid and hot, has a lot of insects like roaches, ants, mosquitoes, and flies. To avoid pest infestation, doors and windows should be closed tightly, standing water should be drained, and pest control treatment should be done regularly.
Fall: Rodents Seeking Shelter
As the temperature cools during the fall, rodents and spiders begin searching for shelter inside. Mice and rats become more active, searching for food and heat. Ants and roaches make their way inside for protection. Fall is the perfect time to inspect your home for cracks, crevices, and holes and seal them up to keep pests out.
Winter: Dormant yet Resilient
Winter brings cold weather, which slows down the majority of the pests. Rodents are active around the house, looking for warmth. Pest control in winter is still necessary to prevent pests from coming inside to shelter.
