🪰 Pests to Look Out for This Summer – Pestigo Pest Control Toronto
Summer in Toronto brings long days, warm nights—and a surge in pest activity. These are the pests you need to watch out for this season, and what they can mean for your home and health:
🐜 Ants
Ants invade homes looking for food and water. Pavement ants are common in kitchens, while carpenter ants can cause costly structural damage by tunneling through wood.
🪳 Cockroaches
Summer heat speeds up cockroach breeding. These pests spread bacteria, trigger asthma, and are hard to eliminate without professional help.
🕷️ Spiders
Spiders often show up indoors when other insects are present. While most aren’t dangerous, some can bite, and their webs can quickly clutter your living space.
🐝 Wasps
Wasps build nests around decks, sheds, and eaves. Their stings are painful and can be life-threatening for those with allergies. They become more aggressive in late summer.
🪰 Flies & Fruit Flies
Open doors and leftover food attract flies. Besides being a major nuisance, they can contaminate food and spread germs.
🪲 Centipedes
House centipedes are fast-moving and often appear in basements and bathrooms. Though they rarely bite, their creepy appearance is alarming, and their presence usually signals other insect infestations.
