Fall pests are looking for a way in

Why it matters: Georgia’s mild climate keeps pests active all year. Subterranean termites stay alive underground through winter, and rodents move indoors exactly when other pests slow down. There’s no “off season” for protection. Joro spiders are invasive and prolific breeders compared with other spiders, so they need monthly treatment from April through November.
