What Makes Summer ‘the Season of Pests’

With summers just round the corner, you may already be experiencing heightened pest activities. The reason for this is that summer is one of the best seasons for pests to eat, reproduce and explore.

The heat tends to bring out every type of pest there is from their habitat, and many homeowners risk a full-scale infestation if they do not undertake safety measures.

Here are a few reasons why summer is the best season for pests:

High Temperature

A seasonal change in temperature affects the behavior of pests a great deal, and the extreme heat of summer is no different. When summer comes, many pests look to escape this heat by somehow finding cooler spots. While several choose to go underground, like fire ants, many find if convenient to seek shelter indoors.

Summer makes the insects more active and they start looking for places that can provide them shelter, as well as adequate food.

Moisture

Summer comes with high humidity, which is a perfect condition for insects to thrive. Also, during summer showers or drought, insects look to go indoors to protect themselves from the external environment.

Preparation

Insects which hibernate during winter are most active during the summer. This is because they are preparing for their next hibernation period, by looking for adequate food supplies.

This is also the time when they reproduce, as winters Is the season they lie dormant.

More Daylight

Summers have longer days and shorter nights. This means that insects get more daylight to hunt and feed. This means that they not only thrive during the summer but can also be very troublesome for humans during outdoor activities.

Types of Pests that You Could Encounter During Summer

While you can encounter any sort of pest during the summer period, there are some pests that are usually found in homes.

Here are the most common pests found in homes during the summer period.

  • Cockroaches
  • Crickets
  • Bees
  • Wasps
  • Bark Scorpions
  • Silverfish
  • Mosquitoes
  • Flies
  • Ants
  • Termites (mostly during the monsoon season)

What’s The Best Way To Prevent Infestation?

The best way to keep your home protected this summer is through comprehensive pest control treatments. Insects can be attracted to homes for a number of reasons, which is why it is not possible for you to take precautions for all sorts of infestations for your home.
