Pest season in Key Biscayne
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the CAPE FLORIDA, FL station show an average temperature of 78.7°F, about 55.3 inches of precipitation a year spread over roughly 74 days with measurable rain or snow, 0 nights at or below freezing and 55 days reaching 90°F or more. Monthly averages never fall below 50°F (the coldest month averages 70°F), so ants, cockroaches and other insects can stay active outdoors year-round rather than going dormant for winter. Average temperatures are at or above 50°F all year.
Moisture and pests
