With extreme heat come extremely unwanted pests. At least that what happens when temperatures reach record levels in McKinney. The Plano suburb has experienced scorpions, spiders, snakes and more, because, according to McKinney, Texas pest control services, the heat and lack of rain has dried up food sources for the creatures, causing them to search for food and water elsewhere. McKinney exterminators say the biggest problem is the armadillos, the cat- or dog-sized, shelled creatures who destroy property by digging holes into the ground. To be safe, experts say you should wear gloves when doing yard work and be careful where you put your hands. In addition, they recommend sealing doors and windows to prevent small insects from intruding.
