Pests in Covington
What we deal with most around Covington, LA
Where trees, trails and wet ground meet neighborhoods, mosquitoes and ticks are the pests people ask about most. Termites work quietly in damp wood, carpenter ants nest in rotting trim and old stumps, and cockroaches use mulch beds and drains as a path to the kitchen. Spiders and wasps like porches, garages and eaves, and fleas ride in on pets that have been in tall grass.
Because Covington has a run of chilly nights each winter, rodents move toward buildings once the weather turns. Mice can enter through gaps as narrow as a pencil, and rats will chew through soft materials to get into an attic. A thorough pest inspection often reveals entry points that homeowners have walked past for years, and closing them is usually simple.
Weather and pests
How Covington's weather affects pest activity
Covington's summers are hot and humid, and its winters are mild. July is the warmest month, with highs averaging about 90 degrees, and about 83 days a year reach 90 or above. January lows average around 40, with about 29 nights a year at or below freezing, and snow is close to unknown. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so use them as a guide, not a forecast.
About 63 inches of precipitation falls in a typical year, and June is the wettest month at roughly 6.7 inches. That much rain feeds mosquito breeding in gutters, ditches and shaded corners, and it keeps the soil next to foundations moist enough for termites to travel. Trim back shrubs so air can move along the walls, and keep downspouts pointed away from the house.
Around 29 freezing nights each year push rodents and cockroaches toward heated buildings, and stink bugs and other overwintering insects come looking for cracks around window frames. Late fall is a good moment for caulk and weatherstripping. In early spring, a fresh exterior treatment helps before ants and termites become active again.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Covington
Ant treatment in Covington
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Covington, 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 Covington
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Covington 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 Covington
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 Covington home is built.
Cockroach control in Covington
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 Covington apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Covington
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 Covington
Covington'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.
