Spring in North Texas: Time to Pest-Proof Your Home Before Bugs Move In
Attention Attention!
As the bluebonnets bloom and temperatures rise, spring in North Texas brings sunshine, fresh air—and unfortunately, a surge in pest activity. Warmer weather means ants, spiders, termites, mosquitoes, and rodents are all waking up and looking for food, water, and shelter. If you’re not prepared, your home could be their next stop.
At Alcon Pest Services, we know North Texas pests inside and out, and we’re here to help you stay ahead of the season. Here’s why spring pest control is essential—and what you can do to protect your home now. Alcon offers one-time treatments or a quarterly service also known as our One Year Plan. Get started early and prevent the bugs from entering your home! Keep on reading to learn more about the different types of bugs you’ll be coming across in North Texas this spring!
Why Spring Pest Control Matters
1. Pests Are Waking Up:
Many pests, like ants and termites, become more active in spring as they come out of dormancy. Early prevention can stop infestations before they start.
2. Breeding Season Begins:
Mosquitoes and rodents start breeding in spring, which means populations can quickly explode if not managed early.
3. Small Problems Grow Fast:
What might seem like a few ants or a spider web in the corner can turn into a full-blown infestation in just weeks.
Common Spring Pests in North Texas
- Ants: Especially fire ants and carpenter ants, which can invade quickly and cause property damage.
- Termites: Subterranean termites swarm in spring and can silently destroy wood structures.
- Mosquitoes: Standing water from spring rains makes ideal breeding grounds.
- Spiders: Often found in garages, attics, and dark corners—especially black widows and brown recluses.
- Rodents: Warmer weather means more movement; they’ll be looking for food and nesting spots indoors.
Spring Pest-Proofing Tips
- Seal cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and foundations.
- Eliminate standing water in gutters, planters, and low-lying areas.
- Keep food sealed and trash bins tightly closed.
- Trim vegetation away from your home to reduce entry points.
- Schedule a professional inspection to catch hidden issues early.
