Pests we treat around Long Grove
Pests in Long Grove
What we deal with most around Long Grove, IL
Bigger yards and more trees invite a broader set of pests. Mosquitoes and ticks are the leading concerns near ponds, creeks and shaded lawns, carpenter ants seek out wet wood, and wasps and hornets nest in eaves, trees and outbuildings. Mice and other rodents shelter in wood piles and garden sheds, then move inside when nights cool off, and spiders gather around outdoor lights.
Long Grove sees roughly 140 nights a year at or below freezing and about 43 inches of snow, so the cold season is long. That sends rodents, boxelder bugs and stink bugs looking for a warm place to wait until spring. Summers are mild, with only about 11 days a year reaching 90 degrees or higher, but warm and humid spells still bring bursts of ants and mosquitoes.
Weather and pests
How Long Grove's weather affects pest activity
Long Grove has a true northern climate. July highs average about 82 degrees, January lows average around 14, and the area receives about 38 inches of precipitation a year. May is normally the wettest month at more than 4.5 inches. These numbers are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.
Deep winter snow can hide mouse runs along foundations, and a wet spring turns ponds, ditches and shaded corners into mosquito nurseries. Homes with larger wooded lots often need extra attention to firewood storage, tree limbs touching the roof and mulch beds pressed up against siding. Keeping a clear strip around the house makes it much harder for pests to find a way in.
A good yearly plan starts with cleanup and exterior treatment in spring, when ants first become active. Summer calls for draining water and watching for wasp nests. In fall, seal gaps around doors, vents and utility lines before the first hard freeze. During winter, check attics and basements for signs of rodents. We are glad to build a schedule around your property whenever you ask.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Long Grove
Ant treatment in Long Grove
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Long Grove, 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 Long Grove
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Long Grove 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 Long Grove
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 Long Grove home is built.
Cockroach control in Long Grove
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 Long Grove apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Long Grove
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 Long Grove
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Long Grove. 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.
