Today is International Picnic Day, a perfect excuse to enjoy food outdoors with family and friends.

Ants are highly efficient at locating food sources, especially sugary drinks, crumbs, and leftovers during outdoor meals. Once one ant finds the food, others often follow quickly.

Pest by MD understands how ant activity builds and works to stop it before small discoveries turn into persistent problems.

What’s the first thing ants seem to find at a picnic — the drinks or the dessert?

Today is National Donut Day, when sweet treats often make their way outside to patios, parks, and gatherings.

Sugary foods and drinks naturally attract yellow jackets, especially in warmer months when outdoor eating becomes more common. What starts as a single visitor can quickly turn into repeated activity around food and drinks.

Pest by MD understands how stinging insect activity builds and helps reduce the conditions that attract them in the first place.

Have you ever tried enjoying a sweet treat outside only to have a yellow jacket show up uninvited?

In June, pest activity becomes more noticeable as warmer temperatures and humidity create ideal conditions for nesting and movement. Carpenter bees begin drilling into wood surfaces, while ants, flies, and cockroaches move indoors in search of food. At the same time, moisture-driven pests like centipedes and millipedes appear in damp areas of the home. Staying aware of these patterns can help prevent damage and indoor infestations.

Today is World Baking Day, when kitchens fill with ingredients like flour, sugar, and grains.

Pantry pests such as beetles often enter homes through packaged goods and can spread quickly through stored ingredients if they go unnoticed. Baking supplies stored in cabinets and pantries can unintentionally provide an ideal environment.

Pest by MD understands how pantry infestations begin and helps eliminate the conditions that allow them to spread.

When was the last time you checked your pantry containers or baking supplies?

Termites cause more than $6.8 billion in property damage every year, and almost none of it is covered by standard homeowners insurance. By the time most people notice something is wrong, the damage is already done. Make sure you know the warning signs to look for.

Today is International Family Day, a celebration of the people we share our homes with.

Unfortunately, rodents also thrive in environments where food, shelter, and warmth are available. Because rats reproduce quickly, even a small early presence can grow into a larger issue if it goes unnoticed.

Pest by MD knows how rodent activity develops and works to stop it before it spreads further.

Have you ever thought you saw just one rodent only to realize there might be more nearby?
