About our service
Pest control for Boise, ID
Boise has about 238,000 residents, and a city that size means a wide range of properties to look after. Neighborhoods such as the North End, Hyde Park, the Central Bench, Pioneer, the West End and the Linen District sit alongside green spaces like Ann Morrison Park, Julia Davis Park, Fairview Park and Bowden Park. A house backing onto open ground meets a different mix of pests than an apartment building or a restaurant, so the first thing we do is look closely at the property in front of us.
Natural Pest Solutions provides ant treatment, rodent control, spider control and pest inspection for Boise homes and businesses. We offer natural pest control options and use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. There is no long-term contract, and you can start with a free quote so you know the plan before any work begins.

Pests in Boise
What we deal with most around Boise, ID
Boise's hot, dry summers and cold winters push pests in two directions. When temperatures drop, mice and other rodents look for warm gaps around garages, crawl spaces and attics, and spiders follow the insects that collect near porch lights. In warmer months ants trail into kitchens looking for water and food, wasps build nests under eaves and in sheds, and mosquitoes breed wherever water sits. Carpenter ants can work through damp or damaged wood, and termites are worth checking for around foundations and any wood that touches the soil.
The area sees about 108 nights a year at or below freezing, so from late fall through winter, boxelder bugs, stink bugs and rodents are all pressing to get inside. Summer swings the other way, with roughly 55 days at 90 degrees or higher. Because rainfall is low, watered yards and gardens become the most attractive spot on the block for insects, which makes leaky hose bibs, damp mulch and irrigation near the foundation worth watching. Cockroach control and bed bug treatment calls tend to come from apartments and shared buildings, where pests move easily between units.
Weather and pests
How Boise's weather affects pest activity
Boise is a dry place with real seasons. July highs average about 93 degrees, January lows average around 26, and December is typically the coldest month. The area receives only about 12 inches of precipitation in a typical year, plus around 18 inches of snow, and December is also the wettest month at roughly an inch and a half. These figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.
That pattern shapes the pest calendar. A dry summer means insects go looking for water, and the irrigated lawn or leaky faucet at your house may be the closest source. Hot afternoons speed up ant colonies and wasp nests, while the cold nights of December and January send mice toward attics and garages. Even a mild, snowy winter does not stop pests already living inside walls and crawl spaces.
A simple routine helps most Boise properties. In spring, trim plants back from the walls and start exterior treatment as ants become active. In summer, fix drips and watch for wasp nests and standing water. In fall, seal gaps around pipes, vents and doors before the first hard freeze. In winter, check basements and attics for droppings or noises.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Boise
Ant treatment in Boise
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Boise, 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 Boise
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Boise 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 Boise
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 Boise home is built.
Cockroach control in Boise
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 Boise apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Boise
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 Boise
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Boise. 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.
