Spring Pest Protection: Stay One Step Ahead of Termite Swarms

Like clockwork, termite season is arriving, and they’re looking for a place to occupy. Homeowners can expect Formosan termite swarms beginning in April and into May, typically just in time for Mother’s Day. Termites are responsible for more than 1 billion dollars of property damage per year in our state. Louisiana is always ripe for termites thanks to already heavily landscaped swamp areas and the nature of the wet atmosphere. Now is the time to make sure your property is protected and that your pest control plan is in place.

“Most people in south Louisiana know that our climate contributes to a variety of pest control challenges, and termite services are critical for local property protection,” says Robert Lewis John III, chief operating officer of J&J Exterminating.

Upcoming hot and humid summer months of June through September are particularly ripe for mosquitoes. J&J Exterminating offers one-time event sprays for outdoor parties and receptions, as well as ongoing maintenance-control programs for people who enjoy their outdoor space. Along with termites and mosquitoes, pest control battles a variety of additional creepy crawlies, including bed bugs, fleas, flies, beetles, moths and rodents.

For those looking for a more permanent pest solution, you can save money on energy costs and insulate your home against unwanted outside noises. J&J offers “T.A.P.” Total Acoustical Pest control insulation is a progressive, E.P.A.- approved, spray insulation for new construction or existing homes or businesses.
