Pest Control in Mills Township, MI

Mills Township has cold winters and mild summers. July highs average about 80 degrees, while January lows average around 10, and February is the coldest month. A typical year brings roughly 34 inches of precipitation and about 53 inches of snow. June is the wettest month, at roughly 3.5 inches.

Those figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so think of them as a guide, not a forecast. With only about 6 days a year at or above 90 degrees, heat is seldom the concern. Cold is. Roughly 176 freezing nights is a long stretch, and it means rodents and overwintering insects are pressing on doors and walls for much of the year.

A wet June feeds mosquitoes and keeps wood damp, so fix leaks, clear gutters and drain standing water then. Spring is for sealing gaps and checking wood near soil, and fall is for closing entry points before the first hard freeze, storing firewood away from walls and repairing any vent or screen that has gaps. During winter, watch basements and attics for droppings, gnawing and odd noises.
