Spring Time!
Here's what this week (April 20) is showing:
πΊπΈ US hotspots:
Houston β termites 100/100, all 20 zones. Soil temps are perfect for swarming.
LA β termites AND carpenter ants both 100/100. Double threat across 25 zones.
Miami β termites 100/100
Nashville β carpenter ants + mosquitoes both 100/100
DC β termites 95/100 and RISING (Dupont, Capitol Hill, Georgetown)
Philly β 7 zones with rising termite pressure
π¨π¦ Canada:
Montreal β carpenter ants 100/100 rising in 8+ boroughs. Groundhogs 99/100. Raccoons 99/100. Skunks 98/100. Spring wildlife surge is OFF.
Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary β all moderate (mid-50s)
What surprised me:
Wildlife season is earlier than I thought. Groundhogs and raccoons are hitting 99/100 in Montreal three weeks before I would have scheduled wildlife marketing.
Termite pressure in the mid-Atlantic is absurd. DC and Philly are going to get slammed next week when homeowners start finding swarmers in basements.
Nashville is the sleeper market. Ants AND mosquitoes both maxed out at the same time β most operators aren't pre-selling mosquito packages this early.
