It’s not easy to enjoy spending time outside when hungry pests are buzzing around. But which pests do you have to worry about? There’s a wide range of invasive insects and other bugs out there, and some of them are much more common, invasive, and dangerous than others. Below, we’ll go through some of the most common threats to your yard, why they’re a threat, and how our team of pest control experts in Cypress protects you from them.
Common Pests in the Region
Among all the pests that can creep into your yard and take over, there are three that present the biggest threat. Here’s a closer look at them:
Fleas are simply thought of as something that can be addressed by putting a flea collar on your pets, but they can easily attack humans and potentially end up in your home. Fleas can cover you with itchy, irritating bites, and their extremely small size makes them tough to spot until they’ve already invaded. Fleas can often be found in damp, shady, cool areas, like in bushes or hedges.
Ticks, due to their ability to carry dangerous diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, are among the most dangerous pests that can invade your yard. These pests are generally brought onto your property by the animals they prey on, like mice and other rodents. Because they target small animals, ticks can often be found in the areas where they’re hiding.
Mosquitoes are also dangerous pests, and they’re able to carry West Nile, Zika, and a handful of other diseases. These pests hang out near ponds, puddles, fountains, and other water sources, since that’s where they prefer to lay their eggs.
