Pests we treat around Lewiston
Pests in Lewiston
What we deal with most around Lewiston, ME
The pest most Lewiston residents meet first is the mouse. Once nights drop below freezing, mice look for warmth in garages, basements and the gap around a pipe, and one small opening is enough. Carpenter ants are the other big worry indoors, since they tunnel into wood that has been wet, such as window frames, porch posts and the sill near a leaky gutter. Termites are less common this far north, but wood that stays damp is worth watching either way.
In warmer months, mosquitoes collect wherever water sits, and ticks are a real concern for anyone with a wooded yard or a dog that spends time outside. Wasps often start small nests in spring that grow quickly by August. In fall, stink bugs and boxelder bugs crowd onto sunny siding and try to overwinter indoors, which is usually when homeowners first notice them.
Weather and pests
How Lewiston's weather affects pest activity
Lewiston is cold for a long stretch of the year. January lows average about 12 degrees, and roughly 141 nights a year fall to freezing or below. The area picks up around 65 inches of snow and about 45 inches of total precipitation in a typical year. July is the warmest month with highs near 80 degrees, and about 10 days a year reach 90 or higher, which is enough for a real burst of insect activity.
October is the wettest month at about 4.9 inches, so leaves, damp mulch and wet wood are all part of the fall picture. The numbers here are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are meant as a guide, not a forecast.
Because the freeze comes so reliably, the best window for exterior work is often late summer through early fall, before rodents and overwintering insects begin to move. In spring, the focus shifts to moisture, gutters and the wood around the foundation. A few hot days in July and August push ants and wasps to peak, so checking screens, sealing gaps and clearing standing water keeps small problems from turning into big ones.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Lewiston
Ant treatment in Lewiston
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Lewiston, 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 Lewiston
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Lewiston 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 Lewiston
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 Lewiston home is built.
Cockroach control in Lewiston
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 Lewiston apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Lewiston
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 Lewiston
Lewiston'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.
