Charlottesville’s hot summers and cool, wet winters create an environment where pests thrive year-round. Carpenter bees appear in early spring, drilling into wooden decks, siding, and other untreated wood surfaces, which can lead to structural damage. Stink bugs are a persistent issue in the fall, swarming homes as they seek warmth for the winter months. Termites remain a significant threat, particularly in older wooden structures, which can cause extensive damage if left unchecked. Rodents, such as deer mice and Norway rats, are common in both residential and agricultural areas, often invading homes in search of food and shelter. Dangerous black widow spiders also can be found in garages, sheds, and basements, requiring cautious handling.
