More on pests in your area
During the hot summers in Carrolton, TX, mosquito populations thrive. These pest feed on people's blood and spread serious diseases such as the West Nile or Zika virus. As such, residents should limit their time spent outdoors during early mornings and evenings and use bug spray to avoid bites. Carrolton residents often encounter various spiders, as well. Common in the area, tarantulas can bite unsuspecting victims. Tarantula bites are often painful but do not typically require serious medical attention.
Another local pest, velvet ants are wasps that have no wings and are often confused with actual ants. However, velvet ant stings are serious and painful. Most stings occur when people walk barefoot and inadvertently step on a velvet ant. Traditional wasps and bees are abundant in the Carrolton area, as well. They nest in and around homes, which can put residents in danger of potential stings. The insects are most active from spring until fall and are especially detrimental to individuals with allergies.
