Pest Control in Somerset, KY

Somerset is on the milder end of the summer scale. These numbers are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast. July highs average about 86 degrees, January lows average about 29, and the year brings about 53 inches of precipitation along with about 5 inches of snow. July is the wettest month, averaging about 5.3 inches.

Only about 21 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, so heat is less extreme than in many parts of Kentucky, but the rain matters. A wet July keeps the ground damp during the season when termites, ants and mosquitoes are active. About 94 nights fall to freezing or below, and that means rodents and overwintering insects come indoors each fall as surely as the leaves come down.

One practical routine is to walk the property in June and clear anything that holds water. In July, when the rain peaks, look at downspouts, low spots and the soil beside the foundation. In October, seal gaps and put door sweeps in place, and keep firewood stacked off the ground. Over the winter, look for signs of rodents in garages and attics.
