Problem Solved Pest Control

Why the Weather Brings Pests Indoors

Most of us tend to believe that bugs end up inside of our homes due to excess food, such as kids leaving snacks and food containers in their bedroom, or residue leftover from cooking. While readily-available food will attract bugs, it is actually water that encourages pests to seek resources within and around your home.

Insects are cold-blooded, meaning they cannot produce their own body heat. This makes the high temperatures and humidity in Florida - especially during the summer - the ideal environment for pests to grow. The heat and moisture can cause bugs to develop faster, which is why we tend to see them a lot more during our warmer and rainier months.


As the weather turns, especially in droughts or heavy rains, pests will leave their homes to seek better shelter and food. When this happens, it is likely they can find the perfect environment in your home, as it is warm, safe, and full of nutrients for them.

Pests can show up inside your home for a variety of reasons aside from rainy weather. If it is too cold outside, they will seek warmth in your home; If it is too hot outside, they will search for food and water.

If you are noticing pest activity increase around your home, we can provide a treatment to help get rid of and prevent pests from entering your home. This is our perimeter pest control program.
