About our service
Pest control for Novato, CA
Novato has more open space than many cities its size. About 52,000 people live here, and preserves such as Indian Valley Preserve, Loma Verde Preserve, Pacheco Valley Preserve and Ignacio Valley Preserve sit beside parks like Slade Park, Josef Hoog Park and Lee Garner Park. Neighborhoods including Old Town and Canyon Green have their own character, and the wetter climate here makes pests behave a little differently than in drier parts of the state.
Natural Pest Solutions provides ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and pest inspection for Novato properties. We offer natural pest control options built around non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets, and there is no long-term contract. Start with a free quote and we will lay out a clear plan.

Pests in Novato
What we deal with most around Novato, CA
Moisture is the main driver of pests in Novato. Carpenter ants tunnel into damp wood around leaky roofs, window frames and decks, and termites can feed inside framing that stays wet. Spiders spin webs across garages and eaves, and wasps build under rooflines. Because homes sit close to open land, ticks and mosquitoes are worth watching for anyone who gardens or walks a dog near tall grass.
Rats and mice move toward buildings as the rainy season begins, using trees, fences and utility lines to reach attics and crawl spaces. They tend to nest in insulation and near stored items, so tightly sealed containers, trimmed branches and sealed gaps make a difference. Cockroaches can also appear in older kitchens and bathrooms with slow leaks. Regular checks in damp corners can catch trouble before it spreads.
Weather and pests
How Novato's weather affects pest activity
The figures here are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, meant as a guide, not a forecast. July highs in Novato average about 81 degrees, August is the warmest month, and about 20 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher. January lows average around 43, December is the coldest month, and roughly 3 nights a year fall to freezing.
This is one of the wetter places we serve, with about 34 inches of precipitation in a typical year. December is the wettest month at around 7.8 inches, and snow does not register in the totals. A long rainy season keeps soil, mulch and wood damp, which favors ants, termites and slugs alike, and it sends rodents looking for dry shelter.
A good plan for Novato begins before the rains. Clean gutters, fix drainage that sends water toward the foundation and seal gaps around pipes and vents. During the wet months, watch crawl spaces and attics for moisture and droppings. When things dry out, trim vegetation back from the house and check for wasp nests. That rhythm keeps most small problems from becoming large ones.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Novato
Ant treatment in Novato
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Novato, 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 Novato
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Novato buildings offer plenty of all three. They can be a year-round issue. 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 Novato
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Novato home is built.
Cockroach control in Novato
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 Novato apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Novato
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 Novato
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Novato. 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.
