Bryan Calvert, owner and operator of York Pest Control, is a resident of York Region, in which Aurora is located. Bryan and the trained professionals of York Pest Control know the solutions to the pests most common to the Town of Aurora and the rest of the region.

Like other Southern Ontario towns, Aurora has some seasonal pests to deal with. Due to the large variation of temperature, the seasons force certain insects indoors when it becomes cold and out again when it warms up. Spring brings the hibernating insects back out while winter encourages them to sleep. Businesses and residents of Aurora count on York Pest Control to help eliminate such seasonal problems.

One of these insects is the European Earwig. These insects migrated to North America in the early 1900's and are now considered native.

Earwigs emerge in the spring, thrive in humid weather, and can hibernate during the winter, either as adults or eggs. They sometimes tunnel as deep as 1.8 m (6feet) below the soil surface to escape the cold, returning again in the spring to destroy your lawn and garden. If the summer months are dry, earwigs will enter homes and buildings in search of moisture. For this reason, left unchecked, an earwig problem will return next season in increased numbers. If you have an earwig problem that you wish to solve, call Bryan (905-853-0702) at York Pest Control today.
