Do we spray in the winter?

• A. No
• B. Sometimes
• C. Yes
• D. Only indoors

Answer: (A)

Winter spraying is not typically done because pest activity slows down and outdoor applications become less effective in cold weather. The focus instead is on prevention—checking and sealing entry points, removing attractants, and performing interior inspections so we’re ready for spring. If a pest is present indoors, interior treatment might be considered, but the usual approach for winter is to avoid spraying altogether. The other options imply some spraying would happen during winter, which isn’t aligned with this practice.
