The hot Garland climate is almost unbearable for people in the summer months, and the same applies to insects. Exterminators in Garland and other Texas cities say insects such as cockroaches, ants and centipedes are driven indoors in the hottest months in search of moisture. Garland pest control services also warn that ants and termites, looking for leaky spots caused by air conditioners, can find damp wood and chew it up, causing serious damage to homes. But apparently, off their property, Texas residents are big fans of insects. Nearby Wichita county hosts an annual summer BugFest attracting thousands of visitors who come to get an up close look at creepers, crawlers and everything bug-like.
