Pest pressure in Arkansas
Arkansas's climate is humid subtropical, with hot summers and mild winters. Arkansas has a long pest season — termite swarms peak in April–May, mosquito pressure runs through October, rodent calls spike fall through winter. That climate profile is what drives the specific pest pressure AR homeowners deal with — and it's the reason pest control programs in Arkansas look different than they do in colder northern states.
