Pest Control in Mulberry, FL

Mulberry has long, hot summers and mild winters. July highs average about 92 degrees, August is the warmest month, and roughly 119 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher. January is the coldest month, with lows near 51 degrees, and the area sees about 3 nights a year at or below freezing, with no snow. Annual precipitation is about 57 inches. Those figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide, not a forecast.

August is the wettest month, at about 9.1 inches, and that rain arrives during the hottest stretch of the year. Warm water sitting in gutters, saucers and low spots produces mosquitoes fast. Saturated soil also drives ants toward buildings and gives termites the moisture they like near slabs and wooden steps. Check for leaks and drainage problems after big storms.

Just a few frosty nights each year means insects barely slow down. Cockroaches, ants and termites keep going in January, and rodents look for warmth on the coldest evenings. Rather than waiting for a problem, schedule seasonal checks: seal openings before winter, inspect wood in spring, and manage water through the summer.
