Coinciding with the arrival of summer and the hot weather, Rose Pest Solutions has begun receiving inquiries about summer pests; especially about box elder bugs, lady bugs and cluster flies.  These notorious bugs that tend to invade homes throughout Troy, Detroit and all of Michigan and Ohio, including Cincinnati and Toledo and although they are not a threat to health and property, they are a tremendous annoyance when they congregate in large numbers.  If you are reluctantly playing host to these annoying summertime pests, Rose Pest Solutions is ready to help.    

These insects start invading homes mid to late summer in search of a place to overwinter.  They tend to congregate outdoors on the warm, sunny side of our homes, but will gain entry to the inside through cracks and crevices in your home including those around:

  • Windows and doors

  • Soffit vents

  • Loosely hung siding

  • Attic vents

Once inside they will they will make their way into wall and ceiling voids as well as in our attics.   

There is no easy, do-it-yourself method or product available for homeowners to effectively get rid of these insects. To help prevent them from entering, you can:

  • Seal cracks and crevices around windows and doors

  • Caulk around clap board siding

Unfortunately these preventative measures aren’t always effective and many may still get in.
