Pests of The Season


FALL

As the days get shorter and the nights get colder, certain outdoor creatures begin to look for secure, comfy places to spend the winter. This change in behavior becomes noticeable on sunny autumn days when insects such as boxelder bugs, leaf footed bugs, lady beetles, and cluster flies congregate in numbers on the sunny sides of homes and buildings. Mated female paper wasps may enter living spaces through chimney flues or make their way through structural gaps in roofs, soffits, eaves and skylights. Once inside structural voids, the insects mentioned above accidentally enter living and work spaces by heading towards the light that emanates from gaps in drop ceiling panels, canister light fixtures and ventilation penetrations.

Other creatures that readily enter homes and commercial buildings at this time include small fruit / vinegar flies, yellow sac and wolf spiders, house mice, deer mice, Norway rats, tree squirrels, shrews and raccoons. Often the rodents and nuisance wildlife that move into our residences and workplaces during the autumn months do so by damaging structural elements of the buildings they invade. Door sweeps, fascia boards, vent louvers and screening may be chewed or torn apart by rodents and wildlife seeking entry. Among those animals that continue to pose problems by their presence on the outsides of structures or cause damage to our lawns and landscaping during autumn are orb weaving and garden spiders, house sparrows, woodpeckers, skunks, raccoons, opossums, groundhogs, meadow voles, shrews, moles and deer.

Varment Guard can help solve your problems with autumn invaders by offering a variety of preventative and corrective measures to homeowners and business owners alike. Call us to schedule a free survey of your property for a written quotation for service.
