What are occasional invaders?

A group of insects that invade our structures (homes, garages, and sheds) “occasionally” are called occasional invaders. The most common reason these pests move into our West Chester homes and businesses is to get away from unsuitable weather like extreme cold or heat and very rainy or dry conditions.
Occasional invaders in West Chester include:

Are occasional invaders dangerous?

Occasional invaders aren’t pests that pose a considerable threat but are unwanted in our homes and businesses. Problems with having these pests in your home may include:
Other reasons their presence should be concerning include the fact that if occasional invaders are in your home, it means there are openings in its exterior they are getting through. Those openings could allow other pests or rainwater to get inside your home.
Also, most occasional invaders have high moisture needs; if they migrate into your home, it indicates that a moisture problem may be present that you’ll need to address and repair.

Why do I have an occasional invader problem?

Most occasional invaders prefer warm, moist living conditions. Our gardens, flower beds, landscaped areas, and woodpiles often provide the perfect habitat for occasional invaders to live. Their proximity to our homes makes it easy for these pests to find their way inside when needed.
Some occasional invaders like fleas can also find their way inside by hitchhiking on us or our pets. Others like earwigs, stink bugs, and centipedes will hitchhike inside things like boxes, potted plants, and other items that were originally outside.

Where will I find occasional invaders?

Occasional invaders that move into our homes will migrate to bathrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and crawl spaces, all places that will provide them with a water source and, if need be, food.
Once inside, some of their favorite hideouts are cardboard boxes, in folded linens or stored clothing, under sinks, in pantries, and inside wall voids near leaking pipes.
