What Does Warmer and Wetter Weather Affect in the World of Pest Control?
Mosquitoes![]() So where exactly have the mosquitoes been over the past few months? Do they just up and vanish? Maybe take holiday, or go on a family cruise? Nah, let's get to the bottom of this. In the colder months, mosquitoes (or at the least the female mosquitoes) take a sort of hibernation. Many female mosquitoes find a warm hole to "sleep it out" when the weather consistently drops below 50 degrees. Others, lay their eggs in frozen water where the eggs go into diapause (a state of suspended development) waiting for thaw and for more consistent warmer weather, so they can hatch hungry and desperate for something to eat.
Termites![]() When the weather is in the 70s on a more consistent basis, male and female termite swarmers make their way from below ground to look for a mate and start new colonies. With an earlier spring, we will most likely experience a earlier swarmer season. It's incredibly important in the Charleston area that your home is protected from termites.

That's interesting how borescopes are used to determine and diagnose termite activity. It must be useful to use a tool that can be guided deep into foundational areas where people can't fit. My brother has a problem with termites in parts of his house, so he'll have to find some professionals to come in to find them and get rid of them
