Pest Control in Wayne, NE

Wayne has a cold, snowy winter and a moderate summer. January is the coldest month, with lows averaging around 11 degrees, and July is the warmest, with highs averaging about 85. The area sees roughly 32 inches of snow in a typical year and about 27 inches of precipitation overall, with June the wettest month at around 4 inches. Only about 21 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, and about 159 nights fall at or below freezing. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.

With that many freezing nights, the pressure on rodents and overwintering insects lasts for more than half the year, so fall sealing is the most valuable task on the list. Snow cover can also hide gaps and piles of debris along the foundation, and melting snow in spring leaves damp soil that suits termites and carpenter ants. June rain then sets up mosquito season.

We suggest starting with a spring check of gutters and grading, watching standing water through the summer, sealing every gap you can find in early fall, and checking basements and attics during the winter months.
