Pests we treat around Craig
Pests in Craig
What we deal with most around Craig, CO
The main pest in a cold-winter place is the one that wants your heat. Mice head for garages, attics and walls as soon as nights turn sharp, chew insulation and wires, and breed fast once they settle in. Cluster flies and boxelder bugs collect on sunny walls in fall and creep into wall voids, and spiders follow the insects. Ants, wasps and mosquitoes make their appearance once the weather warms.
Craig has about 221 nights a year at or below freezing, which is a long stretch of cold, so rodent-proofing matters a great deal. Summers are shorter, with about 32 days at 90 degrees or higher, but they are warm enough to bring a burst of ants, wasps and mosquitoes. Preparing for the cold season in late summer is the best single habit a homeowner can adopt.
Weather and pests
How Craig's weather affects pest activity
Craig has a hard winter and a warm, dry summer. July highs average about 89 degrees, and January lows average around 3. The area gets about 14 inches of precipitation in a typical year, and September is the wettest month at roughly 1.8 inches. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, and they are a guide, not a forecast.
With such cold nights, the shoulder seasons are when pests make their move. A wet September brings moisture to foundations just as insects and rodents start looking for shelter, and a damp crawl space or window well is an invitation. Keeping gutters clear and soil sloped away from the house helps, and so does fixing any dripping outdoor faucet before the first hard freeze.
Here is a simple calendar for a Craig home. In spring, treat the exterior and look for early ants. In summer, clear standing water and watch for wasp nests. In late summer and early fall, seal gaps and stack firewood away from walls. In winter, listen for scratching and check storage areas for droppings. We can tailor a plan to you.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Craig
Ant treatment in Craig
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Craig, 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 Craig
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Craig 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 Craig
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 Craig home is built.
Cockroach control in Craig
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 Craig apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Craig
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 Craig
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Craig. 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.
