About our service
Pest control for Juneau, AK
Rain is the first thing to understand about pest control in Juneau. The city has about 31,572 residents, and in a wet, mild setting like this the biggest threats are the ones that love moisture: damp wood, soggy crawl spaces and leaky corners of buildings. Whether the property is a house in Douglas, an older place in the Chicken Ridge Neighborhood or a building near the Alaska State Library, water is what invites pests in.
Natural Pest Solutions offers ant treatment, rodent control and a thorough pest inspection for Juneau homes and businesses. Our natural pest control options use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. We do not ask you to sign a long-term contract, and you can begin with a free quote that lays out what we found and what we would suggest.

Pests in Juneau
What we deal with most around Juneau, AK
Carpenter ants are a leading concern where wood stays wet. They do not eat wood, but they hollow it out to nest, and damp window frames, decks and fascia boards are perfect for them. Mice and rats also move in when heavy rain drives them to higher, drier ground, and spiders follow the small insects that collect around outdoor lights and door frames.
In summer, wasps build nests under eaves and in sheds, and mosquitoes breed wherever rainwater collects, from planters to gutters that have not been cleared. Fleas can come in on pets or with wildlife, and cockroaches and bed bugs occasionally show up in apartments and rentals. Because moisture is the common thread, fixing leaks and improving drainage is often the best first step, with treatment following after.
Weather and pests
How Juneau's weather affects pest activity
Juneau is very wet. A typical year brings about 90 inches of precipitation, and September is the wettest month at roughly 12.7 inches. The average July high is about 63 degrees, while the average January low is around 26, and there are about 105 nights a year at or below freezing. The records show no days at 90 degrees or above.
These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and work as a guide, not a forecast. What they tell us is that Juneau rarely dries out for long. Wood swells, moss and mildew collect on north-facing walls, and the soft, damp materials around foundations stay attractive to carpenter ants for much of the year. The mild winters also mean fewer hard freezes to slow insects down.
A useful Juneau routine starts in spring by checking siding, trim and rooflines for soft spots. Through summer, clear gutters and downspouts so water does not pool near the house, and keep firewood and lumber off the ground and away from walls. In the fall rains, seal small gaps where rodents could squeeze in, and in winter look at crawl spaces and attics for damp insulation or droppings.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Juneau
Ant treatment in Juneau
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Juneau, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Juneau
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Juneau buildings offer plenty of all three. With a long cold season, the pressure builds every fall. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Juneau
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Juneau home is built.
Cockroach control in Juneau
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Juneau apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Juneau
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Juneau
Juneau's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
