Local Weather Risks in Junction
Triggers
Heavy rainfall — drives ants, termites, and other ground pests up from saturated soil into buildings Drought conditions — forces pests like scorpions and spiders indoors seeking moisture Temperature swings — sudden cold snaps push rodents into walls and attics; early warm spells trigger early termite swarms High humidity — creates ideal breeding conditions for cockroaches and stored-product pests
Seasonal Risks
Pest emergencies in Junction spike during spring and early summer (March–June) when warm weather triggers termite swarming, ant activity, and wasp nest building. The fall season (September–November) sees rodents seeking warmth indoors as temperatures drop. Heavy rain events common to the Hill Country can drive ground-dwelling pests like fire ants and centipedes up into structures.
Disaster Scenarios
After severe storms or flooding: Standing water and debris attract rodents, flies, and mosquitoes. Damaged roofs and siding create new entry points for all pests. Waste system backups can cause fly and roach outbreaks. After wildfire or brush fire: Displaced wildlife including snakes, rodents, and insects seek shelter in homes and outbuildings. After freeze damage: Burst pipes and structural cracks from freezing temperatures create entry routes for rodents and insects.

Emergency Prevention Tips
- ✓ Seal cracks and gaps around doors, windows, and foundation with caulk or weatherstripping — pests enter through openings as small as 1/4 inch.
- ✓ Keep gutters clean and direct downspouts away from the foundation to prevent moisture buildup that attracts pests.
- ✓ Store firewood at least 20 feet from the home and elevated off the ground to reduce harborage for rodents and insects.
- ✓ Inspect attic and crawl spaces seasonally for signs of nesting, droppings, or moisture — catch problems before they become emergencies.
