In Arkansas, pest activity fluctuates with the changing seasons. From warm, humid summers to cool, damp winters, each season creates unique pest control challenges. Adams Pest Control in Little Rock, Hot Springs, and White Hall offers year-round pest solutions to keep homes and businesses protected, no matter the weather. This guide explores how weather impacts pest behavior and what Adams Pest Control can do to manage these seasonal challenges.
Spring – Awakening Pest Activity
Spring’s warmer temperatures and increased humidity in Arkansas signal the start of pest season. Common pests during spring include:
Ants: Ant colonies become more active in spring as they start foraging for food.
Termites: Spring marks the beginning of termite swarm season, which poses significant risks for property owners.
Spiders: Many spider species become more visible in spring, looking for new habitats and food sources.
Adams Pest Control helps homeowners prepare for the influx of spring pests with preventative treatments and inspections that stop infestations before they start.
Summer – Peak Pest Season
Summer is the busiest season for pest activity in Arkansas due to high temperatures and humidity levels. Key summer pests include:
Mosquitoes: The heat and humidity create ideal breeding conditions for mosquitoes, especially around standing water.
Wasps and Bees: Summer is the peak season for stinging insects, which can become aggressive and build nests near homes.
Roaches and Flies: These pests are drawn to the warmth and food sources that summer brings.
To combat these summer pests, Adams Pest Control offers targeted treatments that address active infestations and prevent re-entry, keeping homes and yards comfortable all season.
Fall and Winter – Pests Seeking Shelter Indoors
As temperatures drop, some pests seek warmth and shelter indoors, making fall and winter a critical time for preventive pest control.
Rodents: Mice and rats are especially active in the fall and winter as they move indoors to escape the cold, posing risks of contamination and property damage.
Spiders and Cockroaches: These pests also tend to seek out warmer indoor spaces during colder months.
Silverfish: Often found in basements and bathrooms, silverfish are attracted to humidity and warmth during the cooler seasons.
Adams Pest Control provides sealing and exclusion services, along with winter-specific treatments, to prevent pests from entering your home as the weather cools down.
