Understanding Seasonal Pest Threats in Odisha

Odisha’s warm, humid, and monsoon-influenced climate creates ideal conditions for a range of pests. Here’s what to watch for in each season:

Spring & Summer

• Termites: Thrive in humidity, causing wood damage.

• Ants and Cockroaches: Forage for food and moisture inside homes.

• Mosquitoes: Multiply rapidly, especially where water stagnates.

Monsoon

• Mosquitoes and Flies: Explode in numbers due to standing water.

• Rodents: Seek shelter indoors, increasing contamination risks.

• Reptiles and Insects (e.g., snakes, scorpions): More likely to enter homes for dry shelter.

• Sucking Pests (Whitefly, Jassids, Aphids): Peak as crops and vegetation flourish.

Autumn & Winter

• Rodents: Move indoors for warmth and food.

• Spiders and Bugs: Seek indoor habitats as outdoor conditions become less favorable.

• Bed Bugs: Take advantage of increased travel and closed environments.

How to Prepare Your Home for Seasonal Pests

1. Seal All Entry Points

• Check for Gaps: Inspect and seal cracks in walls, windows, and doors.

• Repair Screens: Ensure all window and door screens are intact and fit tightly.

• Install Door Sweeps: Prevent crawling insects from entering.

2. Control Moisture

• Fix Leaks: Repair any leaking pipes, taps, or drains immediately.

• Keep Spaces Dry: Use dehumidifiers and ventilate damp areas.

• Clear Gutters: Prevent water buildup that attracts mosquitoes and termites.

3. Maintain Cleanliness

• Declutter: Reduce hiding spots for pests.

• Store Food Securely: Use airtight containers and clean up spills promptly.

• Regular Waste Disposal: Take out garbage daily and use bins with tight lids.

4. Use Natural & Preventive Remedies

• Neem, Clove, and Cinnamon Oils: Their scents repel many insects and reptiles.

• Camphor and Dried Neem Leaves: Place in cupboards to deter cockroaches and ants1.

• Supportive Plants: Grow pest-repelling plants near entryways.
