Winter Springs is a Seminole County city with late-20th-century subdivisions, wooded lots and lakes, and the Tuscawilla golf-community area. Call (855) 974-4733 to reach a local technician for the roof rats and carpenter ants that tree-lined lots attract.
Winter Springs is a Seminole County city along SR 434, and much of its housing is late-20th-century subdivision stock on wooded lots near lakes. The Tuscawilla golf-community area is part of its character, and its trees and lakes shape the pest questions.
Tree-borne pests are the theme. Roof rats and carpenter ants are the ones the notes point to, because they use the same trees that shade the houses. The questions a caller can answer quickly are the age of the house, the trees touching the roof, and whether the trouble is in the attic or the yard.
Orlando's hot, humid summers, daily-storm wet season and mild winters decide what is active: winged termites in spring, container mosquitoes and ants after rain, and roof rats in attics in every month.
Trees that touch the roof are the route. UF/IFAS says roof rats use attics, soffits and hollow walls, travel up to about 150 yards for food, and breed through the year, so a shaded roof is a year-round concern.
A hollowed fruit with a quarter-sized hole is a classic sign in a yard with fruit trees. Check the eaves and the branches that brush the roof, and trim before the rodent work so the route does not reopen.
Carpenter ants nest in damp or hollow wood. A rotted stump, a soft fence post or a leaking gutter near the house gives them a place to start, so the technician looks for those before the house itself.
Wooden decks, pergolas and door frames near the lake are worth checking for the same reason. Ask the technician to point out any wood that stays wet.
Drywood termites live in the wood they eat, so their presence does not depend on soil. UF/IFAS names the West Indian drywood termite as the main species, and winged swarms are usually seen from March through June.
A spring swarm is a reason to identify the insect rather than assume damage. UF/IFAS says finding winged termites does not by itself prove an infestation.
Summers are hot and humid, with the wet season from about June to September bringing daily storms. Standing water in gutters and planters draws mosquitoes and ants, and the Aedes species breed in containers near the house rather than in the lakes.
Mild winters follow, and roof rats keep breeding through them.

Trees are not the problem by themselves. The branches over the roof and the wet wood near the house are the parts the technician checks.
