Pest control for Shreveport, LA
Shreveport swings from very hot summers to winter nights that regularly dip below freezing, and pests respond to both ends of that range. About 177,000 people live here, and their properties range from homes near Atkins Park and Anderson Island Park to buildings around Centenary College of Louisiana and Louisiana State University Shreveport. That spread means no two jobs look exactly alike.

We do not ask you to sign a long-term contract. Request a free quote and a technician will explain what is going on and what makes sense for your property.

Pests we treat around Shreveport
Pests in Shreveport
What we deal with most around Shreveport, LA
Cold snaps are what set Shreveport apart. With about 29 nights a year at or below freezing, mice and rats push into garages, attics and wall voids from late fall on, and cockroaches and spiders settle into warm corners near water heaters and kitchens. Termites keep working in wood wherever soil stays damp, and carpenter ants favor beams and trim that have taken on water.
Then summer arrives, with nearly 99 days at 90 degrees or higher. Ants trail into kitchens looking for moisture, fleas multiply in shaded lawns, and mosquitoes and wasps become the main complaint on patios and near play areas. Ticks are worth a check after time in tall grass or along wooded edges. Timing treatment to the season is what keeps these cycles from repeating.
Weather and pests
How Shreveport's weather affects pest activity
July highs in Shreveport average about 94 degrees, and August is the warmest month. January is the coldest, with lows around 37 degrees, and the city sees roughly an inch of snow in a typical year. Precipitation runs about 51 inches, and April is the wettest month at around 5.2 inches. These figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are a guide, not a forecast.
A wet April sets up the first mosquito wave, so gutters, drip trays and tarps that hold water deserve attention in early spring. The heat that follows speeds up the life cycles of ants, fleas and flies, and it drives insects toward shade and cooled buildings. When the cold arrives, the same buildings become the target for rodents.
Our usual advice for a Shreveport home is to schedule exterior work before the spring rains are over, keep mulch and firewood off the foundation through summer, and spend part of every autumn sealing gaps around doors, vents and utility lines. A short walk around the house with a flashlight in October catches many of the openings mice will use.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Shreveport
Ant treatment in Shreveport
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Shreveport, 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 Shreveport
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Shreveport 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 Shreveport
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 Shreveport home is built.
Cockroach control in Shreveport
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 Shreveport apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Shreveport
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 Shreveport
Shreveport'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.
