If you live in North Carolina, or if you just moved to North Carolina, you may be wondering if insects are still alive and active in the winter here. Unfortunately, the answer is yes. Even in the winter, insects are still active. 

Don’t move across the country just yet; there is still hope! The types of pests that are active and their method of entry into your home can change as the winter temperatures set in. More good news is that once winter pests are spotted in your home, they can be taken care of.

How many times have you heard yourself say ‘New Year, New Me? More times than you can count, right? Each year we make goals for the New Year in honor of a fresh new season, but how often do we end up keeping up with these goals and sticking to them? 

It can be difficult to really keep those resolutions, and unfortunately, many slip into our minds before January is over.

When you played hide-and-seek or tag as a kid, did you have a base? The base is the place where you’re safe from being tagged and getting out. For your family, your home is the base where you are safe from the challenges we face every day. Each person probably has their own spaces designed to help them recuperate, recover, and recharge. 

However, you may not realize your place of refuge could also be home to many tiny freeloaders. There could be six, eight, and multi-hundred-legged creepy-crawling and flying pests hanging out in your house, believing they belong. 

Does your house have bugs inside? The short answer is, most likely, yes. In this article, we’re helping you figure out if you have pests in your house and what to do about them. 

Life in the Carolinas is intricately tied to the beauty of the great outdoors. From spring through fall, our weather is perfect for getting out and exploring nature. Even during winter, it is usually warm enough to spend at least some time outside. When it’s cold enough to snow, you can find the entire neighborhood gathered around the sledding hill from morning till night. 

Unfortunately, sometimes the outdoors gets inside our homes. Bugs and pests crawl, fly, and worm their way into our houses and can bother our families. Some of these pests can cause harm to people and damage to your property. No one wants to find their homes infested with our least favorite part of the outdoors.
