Be Prepared With Your Free Seasonal Pest Calendar
Homeowners in the Carolinas should expect pests throughout the year—but different seasons bring different challenges. Want a simple, year-round reference? Order Clark’s free Seasonal Pest Calendar to know what to expect and when.
Spring Pests
Spring kicks off pest season across North Carolina and South Carolina. As temperatures rise and moisture increases, pests emerge from winter hiding places and become active around homes.
Warm weather, humidity, and new plant growth create ideal conditions for insect activity. Many species begin breeding in spring, leading to a sharp increase in pest pressure.
Termites often swarm near doors and windows. Mosquitoes take advantage of standing water after heavy spring rains. Ants search for food indoors. Stinging insects begin building new nests around homes.
Because spring kicks off heavy pest activity in the Carolinas, many homeowners sign up for annual pest protection plans during this time.
Summer Pests
Summer heat in the Carolinas creates perfect conditions for rapid pest reproduction. Longer days and high humidity help insects flourish, especially those that feed on human activity.
Travel season also makes summer a prime time for bed bugs. Increased outdoor time means more encounters with biting pests.
If you missed your spring inspection, the summer months are still an ideal time to schedule preventative service. Clark’s technicians also recommend keeping your yard trimmed and free of heavy vegetation to reduce pest harborage areas.
Fall Pests
Cooler fall temperatures don’t stop pests—they simply change which ones you see. As nights become chilly, many insects and rodents search for warm, sheltered locations. Unfortunately, your home is a perfect target.
Winter Pests
Even during the coldest months, pests don’t disappear—they move inside. While the Carolinas don’t see the extreme winters of northern states, cold snaps still drive pests indoors for warmth, food, and shelter.
Moisture buildup in basements and crawlspaces can also attract pests that thrive in humid environments.
