Spring is a season of growth and renewal, but unfortunately, it also marks the arrival of bug season.
As the temperature rises, many pests begin to emerge and cause problems for homeowners. While not all are bad to have around, it’s important to know who is good and who is not.
That’s where Regal Termite & Pest Control comes in. With their expertise and comprehensive services, they can help you tackle any pest infestation that may arise during this time and avoid eradicating friend instead of foe.
Let’s take a look at Florida’s most common spring pests:
ANTS
One common nuisance is ants. These tiny creatures can quickly invade your home in search of food and water. It is important to keep food in sealed storage containers and maintain food prep surfaces in your home. Regal Termite & Pest Control has effective ant control solutions to eliminate these pests and prevent them from returning.
TERMITES
Another major concern during spring is termites. These destructive insects can cause significant damage to your property if left untreated. Formosan subterranean termites are known for their destructive nature, causing significant damage to wooden structures. Rhinotermitidae are another type of termite species that homeowners should be aware of during bug season. These termites build extensive underground colonies and can cause severe structural damage. If you suspect a termite infestation, it’s crucial to contact professionals who have the expertise in dealing with these pests effectively. Regal Termite & Pest Control specializes in termite control, using advanced techniques to eradicate infestations and protect your home from further harm.
MOLE CRICKETS
Mole crickets are burrowing insects that can wreak havoc on lawns by creating unsightly tunnels and damaging grass roots. Regal Termite & Pest Control offers mole cricket control services to restore your lawn’s health and beauty.
BEES
Bees play a crucial role in pollination, but when they build their nests near human dwellings, they can pose a threat. If you’re facing a bee infestation or have a severe allergic reaction to bee stings, Regal Termite & Pest Control provides safe bee removal services that prioritize both human safety and environmental conservation.
FLORIDA WOLF SPIDER
Florida wolf spiders can be quite intimidating due to their large size. While they are not considered aggressive towards humans, they are known to cause fear in people who are leery about spiders. Florida wolf spiders are more friend than foe as they feed on other insects, helping to naturally control populations of pests around your property. However, if you find them inside your home or notice an increase in their numbers, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance from Regal Termite & Pest Control.
FLORIDA WOODS COCKROACH
The Florida woods cockroach thrives in humid environments and can often be found in outdoor areas such as woodpiles or decaying logs. Don’t let your home become a roach motel. It’s important to address any cockroach infestations promptly to prevent them from spreading throughout your home where they love to feed, breed and nest.
ASIAN TIGER MOSQUITO
The Asian tiger mosquito is known for its aggressive biting behavior and ability to transmit diseases such as dengue fever and Zika virus, it’s essential to take steps towards mosquito control both indoors and outdoors. Eliminating standing water issues is an essential task in successfully controlling mosquitoes in Florida. Old tires, dog feeders, kiddie pools, over-watered gardens should be addressed to help ease the burden of mosquito bites and the spread of potential disease.
EARWIGS
Earwigs are nocturnal insects that prefer damp environments and can often be found hiding in dark corners or under mulch in gardens. While they may not pose significant health risks, they have intimidating looking pincers and their presence can be unsettling for many homeowners. Not to worry, they do not bite humans. These pincers are used to capture and eat other bugs. They can be beneficial and will not generally infest your home.
ASIAN LADY BEETLES
Asian lady beetles aka ladybugs are also prevalent during this time of year. These colorful beetles are beneficial to have around as they feed on aphids and other garden pests, making them a natural form of pest control, but can become a nuisance when they invade homes in large numbers. Regal Termite & Pest Control can easily identify if their population is normal or getting out of control.
