“Pest” can mean an annoying person or thing—such as a nag, heckler, or irritator—or, as a verb, to bother or harass persistently. It can also refer to a harmful infestation or disease-causing organism, though that sense is less likely without a context indicating biology or agriculture. Read the clue primarily as a short synonym clue, with the answer’s part of speech determined by its length and crossings. A noun answer may mean an annoyance or nuisance, while a verb answer may mean “bother” or “nag”; crossings will distinguish these possibilities.
Small details in the wording can help you figure out what form the answer should take. Look for these three signals:
A past-tense clue usually calls for a past-tense answer: "Moved quickly" could be SPED, while "Moves quickly" could be SPEEDS. Match the tense, even when the answer uses an irregular form rather than ending in -ED.
A noun usually calls for a noun, a verb for a verb, and an adjective for an adjective. For example, "Happiness" could be JOY, "Make happy" could be PLEASE, and "Happy" could be GLAD. Read the whole phrase! Some words can function as more than one part of speech.
A singular clue usually needs a singular answer, while a plural clue usually needs a plural answer. "Child" could be TOT; "Children" could be TOTS. Remember that not every plural ends in -S: "Male adults" could be MEN, and words like SHEEP can be singular or plural.
We found 60 possible answers for the crossword clue "Pest", ranging from 3 to 15 letters. Possible answers include NUISANCE (8 letters), LOCUST (6 letters) and BUG (3 letters).
