The rain is receding - the pests are appearing
Why do insects and rodents increase in homes and yards after rain?
Lithuanian summer is not without heavy rains and humidity. However, many people notice that as soon as the weather warms up and the rain stops, ants, cockroaches, flies, or even mice suddenly appear . Why does this happen?
Humidity is a signal for pests to act
-
After rain, the humidity in the air rises - ideal conditions for insects to reproduce.
-
Flooded basements and storage rooms become hiding places from the water.
-
Wet grass and garbage in the yard are a haven for ants, bugs, or ticks.
-
The warmth after rain encourages activity - insects come out in search of food and a dry place.
The most common pests:
-
Ants - rushing into the kitchen, bathroom, and balcony.
-
Cockroaches come from pipes, sewers, and damp floor gaps.
-
Flies and mosquitoes breed in flower pots and unsealed trash cans.
-
Mice – look for a dry and warm place, especially a basement or garage.
What can be done?
-
Regularly check the basement and unheated rooms after rain.
-
Clean the outdoor area - leaves, garbage, stagnant water.
-
Use preventive measures (gels, traps, repellents).
-
Contact professionals if pests are already noticed or suspected.
