When Are Bees Most Active? And Other FAQs

Bees are highly active during the warmer months, from spring to late fall. Their daily activity peaks between late morning and early afternoon when temperatures are ideal for foraging. Bees are ectothermic insects, meaning their energy levels are regulated by the environment. Warm weather is essential for pollination and foraging. When conditions are right, bees can even infest a home. If that happens, it's best to contact a professional who can safely relocate the colony instead of exterminating it. Understanding bee activity patterns and behaviors can help people coexist with these essential pollinators while minimizing unwanted encounters.

Protect Against These Three Dangerous Springtime Bugs

When spring arrives and the weather starts warming up, insects begin to reemerge and make their way back into your home, yard, and public spaces. While most people aren’t thrilled about the return of any insects, there are three species in particular that no one wants to encounter: fire ants, mosquitoes, and wasps.

What Are the Bugs in My Pantry? How to Get Rid of Them

Bugs can infest your pantry in any season due to issues like unsealed or poorly sealed food containers and a dark, desirable environment that insects are attracted to. Pests like moths, beetles, weevils, and cockroaches can contaminate food in a pantry and multiply quickly. To remove them, it’s smart to clear and inspect the pantry, discard infested items, thoroughly clean surfaces, and ensure all food is properly sealed. Additionally, natural deterrents like bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, garlic cloves, and peppermint oil can help keep bugs away. Preventative measures from a reliable extermination company like Bizzy Bee Exterminators are key to maintaining a pest-free pantry.

Is Pest Control in the Winter Necessary?

Winter is a time for cuddling, cozying, and looking for all the ways to stay warm. Whether you crank the heater up, light a fire in the fireplace, or bundle up under a bunch of blankets, know that the pests outside are also seeking a warm place to stay for the season.

Types of Winter Bugs

As temperatures drop and you begin pulling coats and jackets out of storage, you may look forward to what many call the "bug-free season." While it's true that insects are far less active during the colder months compared to spring, summer, and early fall, that doesn’t mean they disappear entirely when winter arrives. It’s both possible and common to see some insect activity between November and March—before populations and activity ramp up again in the warmer months.
