有效的害虫管理需要了解蚊子，tick虫，蚂蚁和蟑螂之类的虫子可能会通过知道吸引这些昆虫的原因以及可以采取哪些措施来控制，驱除或消除这些害虫从房屋或周围的环境中采取什么行动。昆虫活动各不相同，害虫指数已经对今年夏天在美国的期望做出了一些重要的预测，包括：

• 降雨和热量意味着蚊子活动的机会更高。预计今年夏天，包括达拉斯，休斯顿和路易斯安那州查尔斯湖在内的城市将受到比正常状态湿润的影响最大。更广泛地说，俄克拉荷马州，路易斯安那州，密西西比州，阿肯色州，田纳西州和密苏里州以及中部和东德克萨斯州也应为增加蚊子活动做准备。
• Drought and higher-than-normal heat may drive ants and cockroaches inside homes in search of food and water在西北和山间西部。由于极端的春季干旱到夏季，达科他州预计会有类似的条件。
• Occasional heat waves and dryness may force cockroaches indoors in the Northeast, particularly in cities like Burlington, Vermont, and Caribou, Maine. Meanwhile, ticks – which are very common pests in the Northeast – will continue to be a concern outdoors.
• A drier-than-average spring may help reduce mosquito activity在密歇根州和东北部。

Tips for Tackling Pests
Any parent understands the importance of helping protect their family from bothersome bugs. That’s why SC Johnson teamed up with Tamron Hall – mother and Emmy^®Award-winning host of “The Tamron Hall Show” – to share her personal tips on how she plans to tackle pests year-round.

I always make sure I have OFF!^®personal insect repellents on hand in case we need it so that our family time isn’t interrupted.”
