Common Pests in Ronkonkoma, NY
Pest Control
More on pests in your area
Ronkonkoma, NY, is located near a lake, which makes summers in the city humid. This moisture draws pests like yellow jackets, carpenter ants, and termites. Yellow jackets construct their nests in tree holes or soil cavities on private properties and then get aggressive when people approach them. Their stings are painful and can cause allergic individuals to go into anaphylactic shock. Carpenter ants nest in the wooden support beams of homes, while subterranean termites live in complex underground colonies. Infestation by either pest weakens the structural integrity of buildings. Their wood-destroying behaviors put residents in danger.
As temperatures drop during the fall, brown marmorated stink bugs invade Ronkonkoma buildings. These pests gather in alarmingly large masses and emit an awful stench when they're crushed or disturbed. Centipedes and millipedes also invade Ronkonkoma homes around this time. They often alarm residents with their very presence, and centipedes can inflict painful stings that can cause allergic reactions.
