About our service
Pest control for College Park, MD
College Park is a Maryland city of about 34,700 residents, and places like the STEM Library, Hornbake Library, XFINITY Center and SECU Stadium give a sense of how busy parts of it can be. Busy places mean lots of comings and goings, and pests, especially bed bugs, cockroaches and mice, are quick to take advantage of buildings where people and belongings move around often.
Natural Pest Solutions offers bed bug treatment, cockroach control, rodent control and pest inspection visits for College Park homes, rentals and businesses. We offer natural pest control options and use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. There is no long-term contract, and every job begins with a free quote.

Pests in College Park
What we deal with most around College Park, MD
Wherever people move in and out frequently, bed bugs are a concern because they travel in luggage, bags and secondhand furniture and can spread between units through wall gaps and shared spaces. Cockroaches follow food and moisture, mice and rats slip through small openings in fall, and ants show up in kitchens through the warm months. Outside, mosquitoes, ticks, wasps and spiders are common around lawns, parks and wooded corners.
College Park sees about 95 nights a year at or below freezing, which drives mice and overwintering insects toward buildings. It also averages roughly 30 days a year at 90 degrees or higher, so ants and mosquitoes build quickly in summer. Catching a problem early, before it spreads through a building, is usually easier than dealing with it after it has settled in.
Weather and pests
How College Park's weather affects pest activity
College Park has cold winters and hot summers. January lows average around 25 degrees and July highs about 87. A typical year brings about 44 inches of precipitation and roughly 16 inches of snow, and July is usually the wettest month at around 4.5 inches. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so please use them as a guide, not a forecast.
A wet July means standing water and lots of mosquito breeding in clogged gutters, planters and low ground. Warm, humid air also keeps cockroaches and ants active indoors, and pet owners may see more fleas. In the colder months, snow and hard freezes push mice and rats into garages, basements and wall voids, so fall is the time to close gaps around doors, pipes and vents.
For College Park properties, we suggest starting with an exterior treatment in spring, watching for water and yard problems in summer, sealing entry points before the first freeze, and checking storage areas, kitchens and bedrooms in winter. Ask us for help building that schedule around your building.
How we fix it
Pest control services in College Park
Ant treatment in College Park
Ants are among the most common calls we get in College Park, 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 College Park
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and College Park 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 College Park
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 College Park home is built.
Cockroach control in College Park
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 College Park apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in College Park
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 College Park
College Park'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.
