Pests in Columbus
What we deal with most around Columbus, GA
Heat and moisture are a good deal for insects, and Columbus has plenty of both. Ants find their way into kitchens and pantries, cockroaches gather around drains and warm appliances, and termites feed on wood in and around foundations. Fleas and ticks are a concern wherever pets and yards overlap, and mosquitoes multiply fast in the warm months.
Rodents also look for a way in, especially when the roughly 46 nights a year at or below freezing arrive. Mice can squeeze through gaps about the width of a pencil, so cracks around pipes, garage doors and vents matter. Wasps and hornets often set up nests in soffits and sheds during summer, and it is easier to handle a small nest early than a large one in August.
Weather and pests
How Columbus's weather affects pest activity
The climate here leans hot. July highs average about 92 degrees, January lows average around 33, and a typical year brings about 52 inches of precipitation and no measurable snow. The wettest month is March rather than summer, at about 5 inches. All of these figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide, not a forecast.
A wet March sets up the rest of the year. Damp soil around foundations attracts termites just as they begin to swarm, and by late spring standing water in gutters, buckets and low corners of the yard becomes a breeding site for mosquitoes. Because winters are short and mild, colonies of ants and roaches rarely die back completely, and they resume activity quickly.
For a Columbus home, we suggest starting the year with an exterior check for moisture problems and wood in contact with soil. Late spring is a good time for barrier treatment, midsummer for watching water and shady areas, and fall for sealing entry points. During the cooler months, look inside cabinets, closets and attics for early signs of activity.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Columbus
Ant treatment in Columbus
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Columbus, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Hot summers keep colonies growing all season. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Columbus
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Columbus 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 Columbus
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 Columbus home is built.
Cockroach control in Columbus
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 Columbus apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Columbus
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 Columbus
Columbus'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.
