Have you discovered that you have a mosquito problem in the backyard? Perhaps you’ve seen rodents in the pantry or you have a nasty nest of wasps up under the leaves that you would like to have removed. Regardless of the pests that might be causing problems for you, or whether they are in your home or business, you want to have them removed as soon as possible.

In some parts of the world, pest control tends to be seasonal, as there could be various types of insects or rodents that are more problematic during certain times of the year.

Being one and a half degrees north of the equator, Singapore’s climate is classified as a tropical rainforest one. Thus, Singapore does not have traditional seasons, although it does have a wet and a dry season. While pests of all types have the potential to be a problem all the time, you will find that certain pests tend to be more active based on whether it is the dry or wet season.

Singapore’s warm climate and high humidity also make it an attractive environment for pests to breed more quickly.

Singapore is a popular place for all sorts of pests. The most common types of pests found in Singapore include:

• Ants
• Bed bugs
• Cockroaches
• Rodents
• Termites

Ants will go around your house in search of any remaining food scraps. Bed bugs spend their time in furniture and especially beds. They are active at night and search for human beings to feed on their blood. Cockroaches are happiest in moist and damp environments. They come out in search for food, so you will often find them at night in the kitchen. Rats and mice also go around looking for food. Termites present a whole different challenge. They thrive on eating through wooden structures. If undetected, they can cause a lot of structural damage.

Home and business owners need to be aware of the threats of each type of pest. Take the necessary action to reduce the risk of pest infestations yourself, or contact a professional to take care of an infestation.

During the wet season, for example, you may find that insects are more of a problem which could increase the chance of you requiring services such as ants, fly or mosquito control. They may want to escape from the downpours outside. Of course, during extremely dry times ants, rodents, and other pests might try to come inside trying to find water to drink. This means that pests of all types tend to be active in the Singapore area throughout the year, and you need to be vigilant if you hope to keep them under control.

There are some things you can do to reduce the “attractiveness” of your property to different types of pests. Make sure that they do not have easy access to food or water, for example. They will not be as likely to want to make your home their new residence if they do not have the things they need to survive. Of course, this is not always easy, and you might find yourself inundated with pests whether it is the wet or dry season. In those cases, you need some help.
