Why Pests Are Looking for Warmth in Hartford Homes This Fall

Cold weather makes it hard for pests to survive outside. Your home is their next target, so fight back with Hartford CT pest control

In Connecticut, autumn is in the air, and summer is in the background as we head speedily towards the holiday season, so what does this mean for your outdoor lifestyle? Unfortunately, the outdoor living season’s days are numbered thanks to the onset of chilly weather. It’s not entirely over yet, so make sure you take time to savor the wonderful autumn season before it departs our region! The end of the outdoor living season certainly isn’t all sad - we have much to look forward to this winter, with lots of holidays to enjoy and cozy moments to enjoy with friends and family, so what could disrupt these cherished moments? 

Unfortunately, summer’s conclusion means that pests are on the hunt for places to help them survive the coming winter, and this search could lead them directly to your home. In the Northeast, we don’t have the luxury the South enjoys with very long outdoor living seasons and mild shoulder seasons. Instead, our seasonal swings are dramatic and can be quite harsh for the creatures that reside in our region, which forces them to search for shelter desperately. Often, they will look for subterranean holes, shelters within trees, and leaf litter to help defend them from the cold, but there is a better shelter nearby to exploit: Your home. Of all the places to weather the winter temperatures, nothing compares to the unrivaled warmth and peace that your home can provide, and some pests recognize this difference. There are many insects commonly found indoors, including asian lady beetles, stink bugs, and even spiders, and none are welcome in our abodes. The most problematic of these pests, however, are rodents. These invaders are capable of causing significant damage to your property by chewing through the edges of doors and walls, severing electrical wiring, and leaving excrement and urine throughout your walls. With these problems in mind, now is the time to fight back and make it less likely for pests to invade your home this autumn.
