As temperatures start to cool down, stink bugs begin searching for warm, protected places to spend the colder months.

Small gaps around windows, doors, siding, vents, and other openings can give them an easy way inside. You may start noticing them gathering on the sunny side of your house, hanging around windows and doors, or suddenly appearing indoors.

๐“๐ข๐ฉ: If you find one inside, think twice before squishing it! That signature smell is their defense mechanism.

๐“๐ข๐ฉ: Pests are great at staying out of sight, which means the signs you do notice could be just a small piece of whatโ€™s happening behind the scenes.

Repeated sightings, scratching in the walls, droppings, damage, or a problem that keeps coming back? Itโ€™s worth having it checked out.

Dark, protected crawl spaces can be an ideal hiding place for rats. Rodent activity can go unnoticed for some time, so knowing what to look for can help you catch a problem early.

Unlike termites, carpenter ants donโ€™t eat wood, they excavate it to create galleries for their nests.

Theyโ€™re especially drawn to wood softened by moisture, which means activity around windows, doors, walls, or other wooden areas can sometimes point to an underlying moisture issue.

Wood-boring beetles can leave behind exit holes, frass, tunnels, and weakened wood. Moisture-damaged areas can also make your home even more vulnerable.

๐“๐ข๐ฉ: If youโ€™re noticing small holes, sawdust-like material, or suspicious damage to the wood around your home, itโ€™s worth having it checked out before the problem gets worse.

A WDO evaluation can help identify whatโ€™s happening and where the problem may be coming from.

Late summer and early fall can be an especially active time for wasps around your home.

By this point in the season, colonies have had months to grow, which means there may be significantly more wasps protecting an established nest than earlier in the year.

๐’๐ญ๐š๐ฒ ๐‚๐š๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ: Wasps can become especially defensive when they feel their nest is being threatened. Keep your distance from nest tucked beneath eaves, decks, around sheds, or other areas around your home to avoid disturbing them.

Seeing more wasps around your home or discovered a nest nearby? Critter Ridders can help assess the activity and recommend the right treatment.

Odorous house ants, often called โ€˜sugar ants,โ€™ are one of those pests that can quickly become a frustrating problem indoors. They often travel in noticeable trails while searching for food and moisture and can nest in wall voids, beneath floors, and other protected areas of your home.

๐Ÿœ ๐…๐ฎ๐ง ๐…๐š๐œ๐ญ: When crushed, odorous house ants give off a distinct smell often compared to rotten coconut, which is where their name comes from!

Different termite species behave differently, which means the signs they leave behind can look different, too. Some are drawn to damp or decaying wood, while others build colonies in the soil and make their way into structures from underground.

Mud tubes, damaged wood, discarded wings, or other unusual signs around your home could indicate termite activity, but proper identification is an important first step.
