ASK CHRIS: “ARE LOVEBUGS BITING BUGS?”

Good news: adult lovebugs don’t bite or sting. They feed on nectar, and their larvae help break down decaying plant material.

They may be unwelcome on your windshield, but there’s more to them than the mess they leave behind.

Understanding an insect’s role can help you tell the difference between a household concern and a seasonal nuisance.

Florida gives us plenty of opportunities to ask, “What IS that bug?” We’re happy to make learning about them a little less intimidating.

Wood can hide a secret

TERMITE TUESDAY: WOOD CAN HIDE A SECRET.

Subterranean termites can feed inside wood while leaving a thin outer surface behind. Something that appears fine at a glance may deserve closer attention.

That’s why waiting for obvious damage isn’t a great prevention plan.

Keep termite protection in mind alongside the other maintenance you do to care for your property.

Have you noticed a change in wood around your home, or are you simply unsure where your protection stands? Both are good reasons to ask questions.

Contact Standley Pest Control to discuss termite services. Your home is worth paying attention to before a concern becomes impossible to ignore.

Don’t wait for a face to face introduction

You may notice evidence of rodents before you ever see one.

Scratching sounds, gnaw marks, damaged food packaging, and droppings are clues worth investigating.

Make a note of where you find them and whether the activity seems to continue.

Florida homeowners should stay alert throughout the year.

Fall is a useful reminder to check potential entry points, organize storage areas, and review the habits that help keep food and shelter out of easy reach.

You don’t need to wait for a rodent to run across the room before asking for help. Contact Standley Pest Control and tell us what you’re seeing.

Tell us what you’ve noticed so we can discuss the next step.

Your home should feel like a place to relax. If a possible rodent problem is making that difficult, reach out to Standley Pest Control and let’s start the conversation.

FRIDAY FUN FACT: MOSQUITOES HAVE A SWEET TOOTH.

Blood isn’t the whole menu. Both male and female mosquitoes feed on nectar and other sugary sources for energy.

That means the insect most of us associate with itchy bites has a more varied diet than we might imagine.

There’s a lot happening in the insect world beyond what we notice from the patio chair.

It may not make you happier to hear that familiar buzz, but it could help you win the next round of Florida trivia.

ASK CHRIS: “CAN A LEAK MAKE MY HOME MORE ATTRACTIVE TO PESTS?”

Yes. Excess moisture can create favorable conditions for certain pests, including subterranean termites.

Repair leaks, check that drainage carries water away from your home, and adjust sprinklers that repeatedly soak exterior walls.

These maintenance details belong in your pest prevention routine, too.

When you notice a damp area, it’s worth asking why it’s staying wet instead of simply waiting for it to dry. Addressing the source helps you care for the property as a whole.

Their territory can be bigger than your yard

TERMITE TUESDAY: THEIR TERRITORY CAN BE BIGGER THAN YOUR YARD.

Some Formosan subterranean termite colonies forage across more than an acre. That’s a surprising amount of territory for such small insects.

The takeaway for homeowners?

What you notice in one small area may be connected to activity beyond that single spot. Identifying the problem is an important first step in deciding how to address it.

If you’ve been meaning to ask about termite protection, give that question a place on this week’s to-do list.

Standley Pest Control is here to discuss your termite concerns and help you take the next step for your home.

Fall cleanup means fewer hiding spots

That forgotten corner of the garage could be more appealing to rodents than you realize.

Stacks of stored items and undisturbed clutter can provide places to hide.

This fall, organize the garage so you can see around stored belongings, reduce unnecessary clutter, and remove piles of debris near your home.

Check for accessible food while you’re at it. Secure pet food, clean up spills, and make sure outdoor trash lids close properly.

Reducing shelter and food is an important part of prevention. Make a little room on your Monday to-do list for a home check, and contact Standley Pest Control if you notice signs of activity.

FRIDAY FUN FACT: LOVEBUGS START OUT ON CLEANUP DUTY.

Before they become a windshield nuisance, lovebug larvae feed on decaying vegetation and help recycle nutrients.

Yes, those bugs you complain about at the car wash have a useful role in Florida’s environment.

Their early life is spent helping break down the plant material around them.

We can appreciate that contribution and still wish they’d avoid the front bumper. Sometimes learning one surprising detail changes how you look at an insect you’ve seen for years.
