Cockroaches During The Winter
Cockroaches are resilient creatures, surviving on earth for more than 300 million years and will likely continue that survival long after humans have disappeared. The winter months do pose a risk to cockroaches, which will often die when exposed to temperatures less than 15 degrees Fahrenheit. However, cockroaches can find plenty of ways to avoid that exposure and survive the cold months.
Why Continue Pest Control During Winter
It's important to continue pest control treatments inside and outside your home throughout the winter months to keep pests that are seeking warmth from gaining access. They do they tend to take up residence inside the walls, which could make it more difficult to find and treat.
- If pests are inside the walls of your home, they are not affected by the cold temperatures outside.
- In addition to roaches living in the walls, attics and basements also provide a great source of protection and warmth for them to survive the winter months.
- If there are points of entry that are not sealed up, roaches can find their way into your home.
- When a professional pest control company treats your home, they will ensure there are no pest related issues or identify any conditions that could lead to the future pest problems.
- Continual treatment can prevent future infestations and can help to treat any nested eggs that have since hatched and not been affected by the initial treatment.
This month we've seen some unusually warm temperatures, which may be causing some pests to come out of hiding. If you need pest control services this winter, call A B Pest Control & Insulation at 573-964-1100. We can help you keep your home pest free this season!
