High temperatures create the ideal conditions and breeding grounds for insects and pests as it impacts their growth, development, life cycle and reproduction. With the warmer weather, the climatic conditions are ideal for ants, spiders, cockroaches, rodents, rats, and termites and many other insects will rapidly grow in numbers and find a way inside your house. You can do a few things to prevent pest problems and prevention is always better than a cure, and these simple steps will help prevent an ant problem from taking hold.
