🛑🐝 STINGING INSECT SEASON IS HERE! 🐝🛑

It's that time of year again when those pesky flying bombers are out in full force, ready to interrupt your backyard BBQs, outdoor adventures, and peaceful evenings outside.

One of the biggest challenges with stinging insects is that their nests can be difficult to spot. Different species build nests in different locations, including trees, shrubs, roof overhangs, sheds, decks, and even underground. This can create a serious safety risk for you, your family, your pets, and anyone spending time outdoors.

Common stinging insects found throughout New Brunswick include:
⚠️ Bald-Faced Hornets
⚠️ Paper Wasps
⚠️ Yellow Jackets

These insects can be aggressive when they feel threatened, and unlike bees, many species can sting multiple times. For individuals with allergies, a sting can quickly become a medical emergency.

While there is no way to completely eliminate stinging insects from the environment, prevention is the best defense. Regular property inspections, early nest detection, and professional removal can help reduce the risk and keep your outdoor spaces safe.

✅ Check around your home regularly
✅ Watch for increased insect activity
✅ Keep food and sugary drinks covered outdoors
✅ Teach children to avoid disturbing nests
✅ Contact a professional if you discover a nest

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is more than just a buzzword — it’s a smarter, more effective approach to pest control. 🐜🚫

IPM combines multiple techniques to not only eliminate pests, but also prevent future infestations through proper monitoring, sanitation, and treatment strategies.

A proper IPM program includes:
✔️ Detecting pest activity
✔️ Identifying the pest problem
✔️ Choosing the correct treatment method
✔️ Cleaning and sanitizing to remove breeding conditions
✔️ Using both chemical and non-chemical solutions
✔️ Regular monitoring and prevention

The goal isn’t just to treat the problem — it’s to create a healthier, long-term solution. 💪

🐜🏡 FRIDAY PEST FACTS ARE HERE! 🏡🐜

We’re back with more helpful pest knowledge, and today we’re continuing the conversation about ants! Knowing how to identify ants and understanding why they may enter your home can help you spot issues early and take action.

🔍 HOW TO IDENTIFY ANTS 🔍

✅ 3 sections to the body: Head, Thorax, and Abdomen
✅ Colors can range from black to red
✅ Usually have 6 long legs and 2 antennae
✅ Depending on the species, they can range from small to large
✅ Large winged ants are often seen in spring — these are carpenter ant queens looking to start new colonies

🏠 ANTS IN YOUR HOME 🏠

Ants often invade homes searching for sugary or sweet foods. Regular cleaning and removing food debris is one of the best ways to help prevent ants from becoming unwanted guests.

Helpful prevention tips include:

✔️ Keep surfaces clean
✔️ Remove food crumbs and spills
✔️ Trim plant life around your house
✔️ Turn mulch in gardens regularly
✔️ Keep mulch away from your foundation

Ants may seem easy to spot, but they can also be misleading. Seeing only a few ants around your home could mean there are more hiding in cracks, cabinets, or other hidden spaces.

Tick season is here 🌿🕷️

After being outside, check yourself, your kids, and pets—especially behind knees, under arms, and around ears.

If you find a tick, remove it promptly! Stay safe and enjoy the outdoors!

Why don’t ticks play Hide and Seek? - Because they always get spotted.

That was a joke, ticks are not.

🐜✨ Tune-Up Your Knowledge Tuesday is BACK! ✨🐜

Today’s tiny topic with a BIG impact… ANTS!

Did you know ants are among the most successful insects on the planet? These little powerhouses live in highly organized underground colonies with three important roles:

👷‍♀️ Worker Ants
The backbone of the colony! These wingless females handle it all—building and maintaining the nest, caring for the young, protecting their home, and foraging for food.

👑 Queens
The leaders of the colony! Larger in size (and sometimes winged), queens are responsible for laying eggs and growing the colony. Some colonies even have multiple queens!

🪽 Males
Short-lived but important—male ants exist to mate with queens. They usually have wings and only live for a few weeks.

🌎 Fun Fact: There are over 700 species of ants in North America, but only about 25 commonly invade homes. Each species behaves differently, which means proper identification is key to effective control.

🏡 Seeing ants marching through your home, cabin, or business? Don’t let them take over!
