Spring With many pests using the cold, winter months to lay eggs and stock up on food, the onset of spring will see many of these pests emerge from their eggs, ready to do what they do best. In particular, termite activity generally sees an increase around this time of the year as spring provides the optimal weather for termite swarmers to find new areas to inhabit. Often mistaken for flying ants, homeowners may not even be aware of a potentially dangerous termite issue until it is too late. Termites, along with other insects, should be accurately identified and treated before populations have the chance to grow and spread to other areas of the home, or homes nearby. Truly Nolen of Columbus works to decrease these populations by focusing treatment applications on the exterior of the home to prevent insects from entering. Applications also consider long term damage, seeking to provide protection beyond the season.
Summer Mosquitoes, flies and spiders are just some of the creatures that make themselves well known during the hot summer months. With grass and flowers in high bloom from spring showers, overgrown landscaping can provide the ideal condition for insects to infest your space. In addition, the hot summer months can drive pests indoors as they seek water and shelter. Keeping bugs out is key during these months as Truly Nolen pays special attention to entry points and landscaping areas where bugs may be hiding.
Fall As the weather starts to cool down, pests are instinctively looking to find areas that they can begin preparations for the winter months ahead. Rodents are especially active during this time as they seek to find shelter from the cold. With the ability to fit through the smallest of openings, rats and mice can pose major problems for homeowners at this time of the year. Truly Nolen focuses on integrating exclusionary methods to seal entry points and create barriers around the home to prevent pests from entering and settling down for the next several months.
Winter During the full blown winter months, if homeowners have not proactively sought out pest control inspections in previous months, the possibility of carpenter ants, termites and rodents taking up residence in your home can be quite high. Like you, these pests prefer to remain in the warmth and safety of your home, not daring to venture outside too often when its cold. With a focus on eliminating pests that have entered the home, Truly Nolen of Columbus also concentrates on safe and effective treatments to decrease the propensity for pests to enter.
Termites, roaches, flies, rodents and more can all severely and negatively impact your quality of life, especially if there is prolonged exposure to these creatures.
