Pests we treat around Jena
Pests in Jena
What we deal with most around Jena, LA
Wooded surroundings mean ticks are a genuine concern for anyone with pets or a yard that backs onto tall grass or trees. Termites and carpenter ants are attracted to decaying wood, stumps and wet mulch, and wasps build nests in eaves, sheds and playground equipment. Indoors, cockroaches, spiders and ants are the usual troublemakers, and mice and rats show up when nights turn cold.
Jena has about 42 nights at or below freezing in a normal year, and about 83 days at 90 degrees or higher. That gives pests a warm-weather season of growth and a cold-weather season of searching for shelter. Neither one is a good time to be caught unprepared.
Weather and pests
How Jena's weather affects pest activity
Jena's summers are hot and its winter nights are cold enough for frost. July highs average about 91 degrees, and August is typically the warmest month. January is the coldest month, with lows averaging around 36. The area receives about 60 inches of precipitation in a typical year with no measurable snow, and December is the wettest month at about 5.8 inches. These figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide, not a forecast.
Because rain is spread through the year, moisture rarely dries out completely. Wood that touches soil, leaf litter in gutters and thick mulch keep humidity high around a house, which suits termites, ants and cockroaches. Ticks stay active whenever the weather is mild enough, including warm spells in winter.
Practical steps go a long way here. Keep grass trimmed, clear brush from the edge of the yard, leave a gap between mulch and siding, and keep firewood off the ground. Inside, store food in sealed containers and fix slow leaks under sinks. These habits reduce what pests are looking for, and treatment then has less to fight against.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Jena
Ant treatment in Jena
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Jena, 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 Jena
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Jena 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 Jena
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 Jena home is built.
Cockroach control in Jena
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 Jena apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Jena
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 Jena
Jena'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.
