That giant web on the porch and the fast spider in the basement are running two completely different game plans. Learn how they compare in today’s blog!

Stink bugs may not be dressed up for Halloween… but they sure know how to make an entrance. 👀

As temperatures cool down, they may start looking for warm places to shelter — including inside your home.

Windows, doors, siding, and other small openings can become entry points.

🕷️ No costumes.
🪲 No invitations.
🚪 Just unwanted fall guests.

Don’t let stink bugs turn your home into their Halloween hideout!

Dark? ✅
Quiet? ✅
Moist? Sometimes. ✅
Rarely disturbed? You guessed it. 👀

Basements can provide pests with exactly what they’re looking for as fall temperatures drop.

Rodents, spiders, and other unwanted guests can turn that forgotten corner into their own little haunted house. 👻

Before pests make themselves comfortable, check for cracks, gaps, moisture, and clutter.

Your basement should be storage space... not a pest Airbnb. 🎃🚫

Hearing strange noises at night? Before you blame the ghosts… 👻

🐭 Scratching or scurrying sounds
🕳️ Small holes or entry points
💩 Droppings nearby
👃 Unusual odors
🔊 Sounds coming from walls or ceilings

Rodents can stay hidden for a long time, making those little clues important.

If your walls are making noises that definitely aren’t part of the Halloween decorations… it may be time to investigate. 🎃

🐭🎃 Trick or treat? For rodents, your kitchen might be both!

Rodents aren’t picky eaters, and easily accessible food can make your home much more appealing to them.

Keep an eye on:
🍞 Bread, cereal & grains
🥜 Nuts & seeds
🍬 Sweets
🐾 Pet food
🍎 Fruits & other food scraps

Store food in sealed containers, clean up crumbs quickly, and don’t leave pet food sitting out overnight.

👻 Don’t let your pantry become the neighborhood’s favorite Halloween stop!

If you’re seeing signs of rodents around your home, Green Pest Services can help find the problem before it gets bigger. 🏠🐭

As temperatures drop, pests start looking for somewhere warm, quiet, and cozy… unfortunately, your home can check all three boxes. 😅

🕷️ Attics & crawl spaces
🐭 Behind appliances
🪳 Basements
🕸️ Dark corners & closets
🍂 Around stored firewood

The spooky part? You might not know they’re there until you start seeing the signs.

Keep the creepy crawlies outside where they belong! 🚫🐜

Fall is coming, are you ready for the pests that come with it?

Before temperatures drop:

🔎 Check cracks & gaps
🚪 Inspect doors & windows
🍂 Clean up outdoor debris
🌿 Trim vegetation away from the home
💧 Eliminate standing water
📦 Reduce clutter in garages & storage areas

Because pests are looking for the same thing every fall:

FOOD. WATER. SHELTER.

Don't wait for them to find all three. 😉
