• Description : As Queensland welcomes the warmth of spring, it also ushers in a surge of pests seeking shelter, food, and breeding grounds within our homes. Blue Chip Termite and Pest Control, a trusted name in Queensland's pest control industry, provides insight into the common pests that make their presence felt during this season. Understanding the pests you might face can be the first step in preventing infestations and maintaining a comfortable living space. Termites Termites, especially the subterranean variety, are highly active in spring. They seek cellulose, which they find in abundance in our homes – be it woodwork, furniture, or paper. These silent destroyers can inflict significant damage before they are even detected, making it crucial to have regular inspections. Ants As temperatures rise, ant colonies become more active. You might find trails of them seeking food in your kitchen or creating nests in your garden or walls. While most ants are harmless, some species, like the fire ant, can deliver a painful sting. Mosquitoes The combination of warmer weather and spring showers creates the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. Besides being annoying, these pests can transmit diseases like Ross River virus and dengue, making their control vital.     Cockroaches A year-round pest, cockroaches become particularly prevalent in spring as they seek warmth and moisture. The Australian cockroach and the German cockroach are common species found in Queensland homes. Their presence can lead to health issues due to the allergens they carry. Spiders Queensland houses a variety of spiders, from the harmless garden orb-weaver to the more menacing funnel-web and redback. Spring sees an increase in spider activity, making it essential to be cautious and undertake preventive measures. Rodents Mice and rats become particularly active during spring, searching for food and shelter. They pose threats not just because of the diseases they carry, but also due to the structural damage they can cause by gnawing through wires and materials.   Spring, with its beauty, also brings the challenge of managing these common pests. While some can be kept at bay with preventive measures, others may need professional intervention. Blue Chip Termite and Pest Control in Queensland offers comprehensive solutions tailored to each pest challenge.
