Pest control for Perry, IA
Perry has just over 8,000 residents, and the pests in a place this size tend to follow the seasons closely. Homes and businesses near Perry City Hall, the Perry Public Library and the McCreary Community Building all deal with the same pattern: a busy stretch of insects in summer, then a rush of rodents looking for shelter when the weather cools.
Natural Pest Solutions provides ant treatment, rodent control, termite control, cockroach control and pest inspection in Perry. Our natural pest control options use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets, and there is no long-term contract.

Know your pests
Pests we treat around Perry
Pests in Perry
What we deal with most around Perry, IA
Perry homeowners most often call about mice in the fall, ants in the kitchen in late spring and spiders in the corners of garages and basements. Carpenter ants look for damp wood, and termites feed on wood that touches or sits close to the soil. If you have had a leak in the past, it is worth checking that area.
Summer adds mosquitoes, wasps and flies to the list. Wasps like porch ceilings, playsets and the eaves of sheds, so check these spots early. Boxelder bugs and stink bugs cluster on the sunny sides of buildings as days shorten, and cockroaches can turn up in kitchens and bathrooms, especially where plumbing stays warm and damp.
Weather and pests
How Perry's weather affects pest activity
Perry sees the full range of Iowa weather. January lows average about 10 degrees, and there are about 151 nights a year at or below freezing. July highs average about 85 degrees, and about 20 days a year reach 90 or higher. Precipitation totals about 36 inches a year. May is the wettest month, with an average of about 5.2 inches.
As with all the numbers here, these are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide and not a forecast. Once you consider that Perry has freezing nights for roughly five months of the year, it becomes clear why rodent-proofing matters. A small gap that seems harmless in August becomes a way in for mice in November.
A wet May gets the mosquito season going, and the warmth of July keeps ant colonies busy around patios and foundations. To reduce pressure, empty any containers that hold water, keep gutters clear and trim plants back from the house. Before winter, look over the outside of your home for cracks, worn door sweeps and loose siding. Handling those in early fall gives the best result, and a follow-up exterior treatment adds another layer.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Perry
Ant treatment in Perry
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Perry, 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 Perry
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Perry 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 Perry
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 Perry home is built.
Cockroach control in Perry
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 Perry apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Perry
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 Perry
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Perry. 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.
