What Pests Are in Tampa Bay? When Do They Pose a Threat?
Pest control is a critical aspect of maintaining a comfortable and healthy living or working environment. At Drive-Bye Exterminators, we understand that different pests can be active at various times of the year, and the types of clients we serve require tailored solutions to address their specific needs.
It’s important to understand the activity patterns of common pests and when they are most active because it helps us remain prepared to serve you best. From subterranean termites to pantry pests, and from dentist offices to warehouses, we've got you covered.
Subterranean Termites
Subterranean termites are known for their destructive capabilities, and they tend to become active in January. However, their activity peaks from February to April, coinciding with the hotter months.
While termites can be devastating, it's essential to remember that they are not covered by most homeowner's insurance policies even though they do more damage than fires, floods, and hurricanes combined. However, at Drive-Bye Exterminators, we provide information about termite insurance options, ensuring your investment remains secure.
Drywood Termites
Drywood termites establish their colonies within the wood they infest and are commonly found in wooden structures, furniture, flooring, and even in dead trees or branches, meaning they can cause significant damage to your property. They tend to become active during the hotter months, specifically in May and June. However, swarming typically occurs in July, signifying the presence of a well-established colony. At this point, it is vital to address the problem before further damage is caused to your home.
Our team at Drive-Bye Exterminators is well-equipped to eradicate Drywood termite infestations and protect your home or business.
Ants
Ants become especially problematic during the late summer months. However, different ant species can be active year-round, making ant control a year-round concern. Whether you're dealing with carpenter ants or other ant species, Drive-Bye Exterminators has the expertise to eliminate infestations and prevent them from returning.

American Cockroaches
American cockroaches, also known as “palmetto bugs”, are the largest common cockroach species in the United States. They are resilient pests, remaining active throughout the year, and can be particularly troublesome for homes and businesses. Our cockroach control solutions are designed to eradicate these unwelcome guests and maintain a pest-free environment.
German Cockroaches
German cockroaches are active year-round, making them a continuous threat to your property. These infestations can quickly spiral out of control if not addressed promptly. We understand the urgency of addressing these pests and are committed to restoring a pest-free environment to your home or business.
Spiders
Spiders are a common sight throughout the year, and while most of them are harmless, certain species can be problematic. At Drive-Bye Exterminators, we understand the complex nature of spider control and whether you're dealing with Crab spiders, Banana spiders, harmless house spiders, or more concerning species, we offer solutions that prioritize the safety of your home or business.
Earwigs, Pill Bugs, and other Rollie Pollies
As the fall season arrives, you may encounter Earwigs, Pill bugs, and other rollie pollies seeking shelter in your home or office. While earwigs, pill bugs, and rollie pollies might not be considered serious pests, their arrival can be surprising. If you find yourself dealing with an influx of these fall visitors, contact us for more information and assistance.
Fleas
Flea infestations are more common in March and October, especially in homes or offices previously occupied by pets. If you suspect you have fleas in your apartment complex, condo, or townhome, we are available to address these issues promptly.
Silverfish
Silverfish are active year-round and are known for their unique feeding habits, which include consuming a variety of starchy materials such as paper, glue, fabrics, cardboard, and even wallpaper. If you're dealing with silverfish infestations, our team can provide effective solutions to eliminate these pests.
Pantry Pest Control: Unwelcome "Snowbird" Guests
When "snowbirds" return to their homes in November after months of vacancy, they often discover:
- Ants
- Cockroaches
- Silverfish
- Pantry pest infestations
“Pantry pests” is a term for grain-based insects, including Grain beetles, Rice weevils, and Indian meal moths, that can contaminate stored food items, like:
- Rice/flour
- Tobacco products
- Pasta
- Pet food
Our pantry pest control services are designed to rid your space of these unwelcome guests.
Additional Pest Control Services: Flies and More
In addition to the pests mentioned above, we also provide solutions for flies, which can come from:
- Dead animals in or around the home
- Spilled sugary drinks or rotten food
- Potting soil plants brought indoors
- Drains with a lot of grease, fat, and bacteria
However, if you remove the source, oftentimes, you remove the problem. Our team can address these issues effectively, ensuring a clean and pest-free environment.
