Spring is a beautiful time of year, bringing plenty of sunshine and colorful flowers. However, it also comes with its share of pesky bugs and the conditions for those bugs to thrive. Many bugs tend to take shelter and hide out during the winter months, which gives them plenty of time to mate and breed once spring and summer return.

Some of these pests play a role by eliminating other harmful or annoying insects, but others can be incredibly frustrating to live with. Bugs will try to find any areas that offer beneficial conditions for mating and that provide a safe place for them to thrive and lay their eggs.

Now is the time of year to start preparing yourself and your home for these invaders. Even though the weather is getting warmer, we all know that spring often brings rain—and lots of it. Warmer weather combined with wet conditions will be beneficial for bugs and pests of all types.
