Pest Control in Atlanta, TX

Atlanta has hot summers and cool winters. July highs average about 94 degrees, August is typically the warmest month, and January lows average around 33 degrees. January is the coldest month. Snow averages about 1 inch a year, and about 98 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, and they are a guide, not a forecast.

The city receives about 50 inches of precipitation annually, and May is the wettest month at around 5.2 inches. A soggy May supports mosquito breeding and soaks the ground near foundations, where termites like to work. Later, when the heat settles in, ants, spiders and cockroaches move toward shade and water, including sprinklers, air-conditioner drip lines and damp mulch.

A practical calendar for Atlanta starts in early spring with a walk around the house to look for cracks, wet wood and clogged gutters. Through summer, empty containers that hold water and trim branches that touch the roof. In fall, close gaps around doors, vents and pipes ahead of the freezing nights. In winter, listen for scratching in the attic and check the garage for droppings. We can help with any of these steps.
