Common Pests in Northport, AL
Pest Control
More on pests in your area
Northport, AL, includes diverse habitats from forests to marshes that attract many types of pests. Paper wasps and yellow jackets often build their nests under decks or in window corners and eaves. Attracted to yards and houses by food or garbage, the pests can sting when threatened or swatted. Alabama is also home to several species of spiders. While generally considered beneficial due to preying on insects, these can be a nuisance pest.
While kudzu bugs and silverfish do not cause any health hazards, Northport residents can find them very annoying. When not eating soybean crops, kudzu bugs enter homes through cracks around windows, doors, and soffits. When squished, they stain surfaces and release foul smells. Unlike kudzu bugs, silverfish feed on items like books, clothing, and starchy foods. Silverfish leave holes as they feed and can damage old paper products.
