Some say summer is the best season of all. With its generous perks such as brightly shining sun, warm climate, and beautifully chirping birds, summer definitely stands tall as a contender for the best of the four seasons. One of the biggest disadvantages we face during the summer is the battle of pests. It is best to prepare for them now rather than deal with their nuisances later. What pests come out to play during the summer?
Mosquitoes
The blood-sucking demon pest that ruins outdoor fun during the summer, mosquitoes are the deadliest pest in the world. This is because they carry and transmit several diseases, including West Nile virus and Zika virus. Stock up on citronella candles and be sure to install a misting system to help keep your property mosquito-free.
Ants
It is not unusual to walk into your kitchen one day and see a colony of ants marching out of your home with crumbs in tow. Pay special attention to the cleanliness of your home when warm weather rolls around since even the tiniest of crumbs invites pests inside.
Ticks
Ticks are around all year long, although summer is when they are most active. Keep the lawn and shrubbery trimmed to minimize the risk of ticks. Check yourself and your pets thoroughly for ticks when coming inside from the outdoors. With a little preparation, and help from a professionally-installed misting system, you can enjoy summer without the threat posed by pests like those mentioned above.
