Pest control for Ellington, CT
Ellington counts about 16,600 residents and has many small open spaces, from Talcott Park and Henry Park to Arbor Park, Kimball Forest and a series of street-named open space parcels. Rockville is also part of the area we serve. Between the parks and the parcels, many houses here sit close to grass, trees or brush that shelter pests. Each house gets its own plan.
Natural Pest Solutions offers ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and pest inspection for Ellington homes and businesses. Our natural pest control options rely on non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. We never ask you to sign a long-term contract, and we start with a free quote so you know what to expect.

Pests we treat around Ellington
Pests in Ellington
What we deal with most around Ellington, CT
Ellington's cold weather is the main driver of what we see indoors. Mice and rats are the biggest fall and winter concern, squeezing into garages, basements and wall voids, and carpenter ants take advantage of any wood that has stayed damp. Termites remain a risk for wooden structures near soil, and spiders gather where insects do. Cockroaches occasionally turn up in basements and kitchens too.
The area has around 152 nights a year at or below freezing, with only about 5 days reaching 90 degrees. Boxelder bugs and stink bugs collect on warm walls when autumn turns cool, and in spring wasps start new nests while mosquitoes and ticks wake up in damp, shaded ground.
Weather and pests
How Ellington's weather affects pest activity
Ellington's winters are long and its summers are moderate. The numbers below are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are a guide, not a forecast. July highs average about 81 degrees, January lows average near 14, and a typical year brings roughly 50 inches of precipitation.
October is usually the wettest month at about 4.9 inches. That fall rain, followed soon after by cold nights, is the classic setup for rodents heading indoors, and it leaves damp soil and leaf litter around foundations. With such a long freezing season, small holes stay important all the way through winter. Damp leaf litter along the foundation is worth raking away before the cold sets in.
An Ellington calendar could begin with spring gutter cleaning and a look at wood near the ground. Summer means emptying standing water and trimming plants back from siding, while early fall is the time to close gaps around doors, vents and pipes. Winter is for occasional checks of attics and basements. A technician can adapt this to your property.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Ellington
Ant treatment in Ellington
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Ellington, 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 Ellington
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Ellington 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 Ellington
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 Ellington home is built.
Cockroach control in Ellington
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 Ellington apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Ellington
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 Ellington
Ellington'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.
