Why Pests Enter Homes in Southwest Houston and Sugar Land

Cleaning regularly inside and outside is the best defense against pests. They won’t build nests or spread if they can’t find easy sources of food. Cleaning outside also eliminates easy hiding places and makes your home look less like a bug’s ideal habitat. If you’ve found pests inside, controlling them as quickly as possible is key to preventing a large infestation. Calling Aptive Environmental is the easiest way to solve your pest problems and protect your home for the future.

Tips for Houston South Homes: How to Prevent Pests

The first steps to preventing pests are learning about what attracts them and making small changes to your routines to prevent this. Good cleaning habits include regularly vacuuming and sweeping floors to pick up crumbs. Never leave dirty dishes in the sink—pests love easily-accessible leftovers. It’s also important to wipe counters to clean up spills from cooking. Mice and bugs can climb onto a counter easily and contaminate eating surfaces. Finally, change garbage bags frequently and store them away from your house until they’re picked up.

Composting for South Houston Homes

Does your Houston South household compost? It’s a great way to reduce waste (research shows that 30% of all household waste in the U.S. is organic materials).

Composting for South Houston Homes (Cont'd)

If your compost pile is outside, bury it 8” or deeper in the ground to help keep rodents away. If you’re composting in a bin, use one with a lid or block the opening with wire or sticks to make it less accessible to pests. Pouring a layer of dirt or dried leaves over the materials in your compost pile can partially mask the smell and make it more difficult for pests to find.

Most Common Spring Pests in Houston South

Ants are one of the most common pests in Houston and these tiny insects become fully active again each spring. Mice and rats are other pests that you don’t want to find in your home. That could mean they overwintered in the walls and reproduced.

Most Common Summer Pests in Houston North

In the hot, humid summer weather in Texas, spiders become most active building webs to catch food. Cockroaches, which remain active all year, might be especially problematic outdoors in yards or gardens in the summer. Meanwhile wasps are one stinging insect that frequently ruins outdoor events.

Most Common Fall Pests in Houston North

Wasps become even more aggressive in the fall as they try to feed their colonies with a diminishing food supply. Rodents spend the fall searching for and storing supplies, including food and nesting materials, to survive the winter.

Most Common Winter Pests in Houston North

Cold weather—even mild chills in the Houston South area—can drive pests inside. This includes fleas that can quickly infest bedding, carpets, furniture and pets. Earwigs are one of several pests that seek indoor shelter during the winter temperature drops. This can create an even larger problem when they reemerge in the spring.
