Pest Season by Weather and Rain Effects
Insects often surge in activity when humidity spikes and temperatures rise—especially after rainfall. Understanding bugs after rain means recognizing that damp conditions can trigger larval emergence and adult activity. Treating soon after rain dries helps target pests before they hide or reproduce.

This reminds us that weather patterns directly influence pest behavior.
Pest Life Cycle by Temperature and Seasonal Peaks
Temperature affects pest development speed: warmer weather accelerates growth, while cold slows it. Understanding pest life cycle by temperature helps you predict when pests reach vulnerable stages. For example, caterpillars and beetles often hatch in late spring or early summer. Scheduling treatments at these points—the best time to spray for bugs—ensures you interrupt their growth cycle effectively.
Creating an Effective Pest Control Schedule
An effective pest control schedule should align with seasonal cycles and weather events. Begin with early spring treatments, follow up mid-summer, and address bugs after major rainstorms. For consistent coverage and timing, use the Tomahawk TPS25 Backpack Sprayer—it provides even pressure and large capacity to reach all affected zones.
