Shield Your Family and Property from Summer’s Most Harmful Pests—Trust Action Pest Control for Total Peace of Mind
🦟 Notable Summer Pests & Risks
1. Mosquitoes
-
Over 60 mosquito species are found in New Jersey, with 34 species confirmed in Camden County alone.
-
Active significantly from late spring through early fall.
-
Risks include bites, nuisance swarms, and disease transmission (e.g. West Nile Virus).
-
Control: targeted spraying, larvicide treatments, and barrier protections.
2. Ticks & Fleas
-
Peak season spans spring through autumn.
-
Risks include tick‑borne illnesses (Lyme disease, anaplasmosis) and flea infestations in yards, especially near wooded or grassy areas.
-
Control: perimeter treatments, landscape management, and pet-safe applications.
3. Ants (Carpenter, Pavement, Odorous, etc.)
-
Summer heat drives these colony insects indoors seeking food or nesting sites .
-
Carpenter ants can damage wood; pavement and odorous house ants contaminate food.
-
Control: baiting, barrier sprays, structural inspections.
4. Stinging Insects (Bees, Wasps, Hornets)
-
Nests become active in summer, increasing sting risks—especially in suburban settings common across these counties
-
Control: professional nest removal and preventive treatments around structures.
5. Stink Bugs
-
Often invade homes in late summer and early fall as they seek shelter
-
Though not harmful structurally, they emit unpleasant odors when disturbed.
6. Mice & Rodents
-
Warm weather sees rodents moving indoors for nesting and food water sources.
-
Control: trapping, exclusion, and habitat reduction initiatives
🌡️ Why Summer Is High Risk
-
Temperature & humidity fuel rapid pest reproduction.
-
Outdoor living (barbecues, gardening, children playing) leads to more exposure.

Suburban landscapes with trees, ornamental plants, and water features provide ideal habitats.
