Orkin Easton, Maryland

Easton Pest Pressure

The suburbs of Easton, MD, attract pests that can handle both hot, humid summers and cool winters. Spiders are native to Maryland, as the climate supports a wealth of insects as their food source. While generally considered beneficial because they eat insects, these can be a nuisance pest. The area is also home to yellow jackets, which may nest underground, inside wall voids, or on eaves and bushes. While these stinging pests collect insects as food for the larvae, adults forage for sugary liquids for themselves.

Bed bugs and cockroaches are common pests inside Easton homes. Bed bugs stay around the edges of mattresses and headboards and other protected spots. The pests then bite resting residents to feed on. German, American, brown-banded, and oriental cockroaches are all possibly problematic around local homes. These pests gather around pantries, bathrooms, crawl spaces, basements and other places where food, moisture and shelter are found.
