It’s unlikely true water bugs will get into your home plumbing system. You may find them in gutters, rain barrels, or open irrigation on your property. If there are bugs near your indoor pipes, leaky sinks, or other moist places, they are probably Oriental cockroaches. Consult a pest control professional to determine the pest hiding out in your plumbing system.

No, pill bugs do not bite, and they do not transmit diseases. Pill bugs also don’t infest wood like carpenter ants or termites do, so they don’t pose a threat to your home either. In fact, pill bugs pose no threat to humans beyond stealing your veggies.

Termites are active year-round in warmer areas and most active in the warmer months in cooler climates. Once termites begin causing damage, they’ll continue to destroy your wood year-round, even in cold weather. Termites tend to swarm in warm weather, but colonies can be hard at work, tunneling through your wood 365 days a year.

By sheer dollar amount, nothing equals a bad termite infestation that can ruin walls, floors, roofs and wooden support materials, requiring massive reconstruction after the pest problem has been taken care of. However, a bad rodent infestation can also cause a lot of damage, as can carpenter ants and bees that made hives within walls.
