🔥 Summer Pests That Spike in NJ

With hot, humid New Jersey summers, a surge in pest activity is inevitable. Here’s what Action frequently handles in the season:

1. Stinging Insects (Wasps, Bees, Hornets, Yellow Jackets)

  • Active late summer into fall as they stock up for winter.

  • Pose real sting hazards, especially when nests are near homes—some can sting repeatedly

2. Mosquitoes & Ticks

  • Thrive in warm, wet conditions, especially around marshes and dense vegetation

  • Mosquito bites can spread illnesses; ticks in NJ are known carriers of Lyme and other diseases

3. Ants, Cockroaches & Other Indoor Invaders

  • Ants swarm kitchens during summer, seeking sugar and protein. Cockroaches and spiders also invade homes .

  • Carpenter ants and bees are common wood-destroying pests

4. Termites

  • Eastern subterranean termites work year-round, but moisture and summer heat intensify their activity .

  • These silent destroyers can cost homeowners dearly if left unchecked.

5. Rodents (Norway Rats, House Mice, Voles, Squirrels)

  • Rodents seek shelter and food—often nesting in crawl spaces and attics

  • They chew wiring and spread disease via droppings.

6. Lawn & Garden Pests

  • Insects like chinch bugs and white grubs attack grass roots, leaving brown patches

  • Voles dig tunnels under lawns and gardens, damaging vegetation .

7. Biting Midges (“No‑see‑ums”) & Crane Flies

  • Summer swarms of no‑see‑ums can give itchy bites, while larger crane flies, though harmless, can alarm residents
