ALEXANDRIA, Va. - Michimich -- With the arrival of autumn's cooler temperatures and a kaleidoscope of falling leaves, Better Termite & Pest Control proudly celebrates its 56th year of helping families maintain pest-free homes. With over five decades of expert service, we have honed our ability to predict and manage the seasonal pests that may be looking to make your home theirs this fall. Here are the top six pests you should be on the lookout for this season:

1. Rodents on the Move: As temperatures drop mice and rats begin their annual search for warmth, food, and shelter. Your attic or basement could be high on their list. Be vigilant for signs such as droppings, which can serve as your first defense against these uninvited guests.

2. Persistent Rodents: Rats and mice warrant a second mention due to their persistent nature and the high volume of complaints we receive about them each winter. Able to squeeze through openings the size of a dime, it's crucial to seal any cracks or holes around your home to prevent them from becoming entry points.

3. Yellow Jackets Final Frenzy: Although summer is ending, yellow jackets remain active, especially if they have established nests nearby. They become particularly aggressive in their hunt for food during their final surge before winter, posing a threat to your outdoor meals and gatherings.

4. Ticks in the Tangle: Ticks don't hibernate just because summer does. They thrive in the cooler weather and tall grasses of fall, especially if you have pets or enjoy outdoor activities. If your current pest plan doesn't cover ticks and mosquitoes, now might be the time to consider adding partial season protection.

5. Overwintering Pests: Stink bugs, ladybugs, and box elder bugs seek refuge in homes during the colder months. While they are not harmful, their tendency to gather in large numbers can be a nuisance. They often congregate on the sunny sides of homes, searching for a way inside to ride out the winter.

6. Spiders Indoors: Spiders also find their way indoors, partly to avoid the cold and partly to catch smaller insects. While they play a role in controlling pests, we understand if you prefer them not to share your living space.
