What time of year is best for pest control?

It goes with how much pest infestation you have. If you see cockroaches and mice wandering around your home, you should immediately call a pest control exterminator. But if your desires to control pest even before they approach your home.

You can always go for general pest control. Pest increases with the temperature warming up. As spring comes, spiders, ants, and flies quietly invade your home. You can maintain them by spraying pesticides.

But the question arises when the right time to use pest control is. For example, will it be good to spray in spring or wait until summer?

Best season for pest control

Although there might not be any perfect time then calling pest control as soon you observe the pest around the house. But still, the best time to do pest control is early spring. By using spraying in spring, it will terminate the nest and colonies of pests.

When treatment has less to do, it will last the effect of the treatment even longer. So if you wait until the abundance of pests, then pest extermination needs to do more work, and treatment needs to do more work that will downplay the treatment effect time.

During the spring, household pests are weakest. At this time of year, insects and rodents come out of dormancy and become more active. After the cold summer, pests wander around searching for food and invade your house for the same.

It comes true, especially for ants, spiders, cluster flies, and bees. These insects have deficient tolerance levels. Because of this, half of the population of these little troublemakers dies in some areas during the winter season.

Winter gives the preparation time for these little invaders; don’t think of it as knockoff time. Otherwise, it will make you face the worst infestation in some cases. Professional who uses advanced IPM techniques suggests sealing off all the entry point for these invaders during spring or early spring.

During early spring or winter, moisture, heat, and light will not hinder a barrier. However, it is a struggling point during summer.

How often should pest control do?

The next question about that most people are curious is how many times they need to do pest control. Although it will be enough to do pesticide spray once a year, that too during almost the same time every year.

But it still depends on how badly you have a pest infestation. Or if you observe any pest activity in mid-time, you might need another treatment to control pest infestation. One treatment doesn’t need to be enough for all kinds of pests.

Sprays are effective for insects that crawl but don’t give results in the case of bed bugs and termites. As a result, these pests need other treatments for their end.
