Why does siding attract flying insects?

Siding can attract flying insects for several reasons. Firstly, certain materials, like wood or vinyl, can retain moisture, creating a favorable environment for insects like termites and carpenter bees. Additionally, gaps or cracks in the siding can provide shelter for insects and entry points for infestations. Lastly, the color and texture of the siding may mimic natural habitats, further enticing insects to settle nearby.
