Pests in Falmouth
What we deal with most around Falmouth, ME
Ticks lead the list for Falmouth families who spend time on trails or in wooded backyards. They wait on grass blades and shrub edges, latch onto people and pets, and are active whenever the ground is not frozen. Keeping lawns mowed, moving woodpiles away from the house and creating a dry buffer between the yard and the trees all help, and so does a full body check after time outdoors.
Mosquitoes breed near ponds, wet woods and any container of standing water. Mice and other rodents take shelter in garages, sheds and attics as the weather cools, and carpenter ants are drawn to damp or decayed wood, including old stumps and tree limbs that touch the house. Wasps favor eaves and soffits, and spiders, stink bugs and boxelder bugs collect around lights and warm siding late in the season.
Weather and pests
How Falmouth's weather affects pest activity
Falmouth has about 48 inches of precipitation in a typical year and roughly 69 inches of snow. January lows average about 16 degrees, and about 144 nights a year are at or below freezing. July highs reach roughly 80 degrees, and about 5 days a year hit 90 or higher.
October is the wettest month at about 5.2 inches. These values are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so please read them as a guide, not a forecast.
A mild summer and a long, cold winter leave two important windows for a property with woods nearby. In spring, as the ground thaws and leaf litter warms, ticks and ants become active first. In fall, wet weather and falling temperatures send mice and insects looking for shelter. Clearing brush, keeping gutters flowing and closing gaps in October can prevent most of the problems that show up in winter.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Falmouth
Ant treatment in Falmouth
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Falmouth, 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 Falmouth
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Falmouth 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 Falmouth
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 Falmouth home is built.
Cockroach control in Falmouth
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 Falmouth apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Falmouth
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 Falmouth
Falmouth'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.
