6 Common Spring Bugs and Animals In Humboldt County
As warmer spring weather starts to appear in Humboldt County, so too do certain species of insects and wildlife. The temperature and humidity levels in our area of Northern California directly affect the many ecosystems in our backyards. Here are six common spring bugs and animals you may find in Humboldt County.
Ants
Ants are attracted to food and moisture. Warmer weather may push ants toward homes and buildings in search of shade and moisture. 707 Pest Solutions can implement a preventative treatment that can deter ants away from your home while being safe for the environment.

Termites
Prevention is the best defense when it comes to termites. Whether swarming out of the ground or walls to an unexpected discovery during a home improvement project or remodel, termites in a building are a serious issue. Termites eat a structure from the inside out. This means that there is likely vast amounts of internal damage by the time you see termites. 707 Pest Solutions offers preventative treatments to keep termites away from your property. We also provide a repair service for any damaged wood or insulation caused by pests.

Spiders
Spiders start to appear more in the spring and summer months. We provide a spider maintenance service that works to prevent spiders access to your home. Our theory is that spiders can’t become an issue inside if they can’t make it inside. Contact us to learn more about our spider sweeping procedure that removes spider webs while leaving behind a residual repellant.

Bats
Spring is the time when bats come out of hibernation and have babies. They will look for warm, sheltered areas to have their offspring, making your home or office an ideal option. Listen for noises and squeaking in the attic or walls and look for scratches, urine, and guano build-up outside the building. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH any urine or guano you find. It can be hazardous to your health. Instead, contact our team to remove the droppings and bats from your building. We can also replace any contaminated insulation.

Bees & Wasps
Bees and wasps thrive in warmer weather. These stinging insects like to make their nests and hives around buildings, especially under eaves and overhangs. 707 Pest Solutions has services to remove nests and hives and prevent them from forming by applying regular barrier treatment.

Squirrels
It’s normal to see a few squirrels scurry across your yard now and again. Problems occur, however, when they make their way inside your home. Squirrels can cause damage to your home’s structure and insulation. Having squirrels in your home also poses a health risk. We can help remove squirrels from your building, repair necessary wood damage, and replace contaminated insulation.
