Pests we treat around Boston Township
Pests in Boston Township
What we deal with most around Boston Township, MI
Mosquitoes lead the list for homes near water. Standing pools after rain, marshy edges and shaded corners of the yard give them a place to breed, and they can be a problem from late spring straight through September. Ticks are also common around brush and tall grass near trails and shorelines, and fleas can ride in on pets that spend time outdoors.
Indoor troubles usually start in fall. Mice and rodents look for a warm place as nights get colder, and they can use cracks around pipes, vents and garage doors. Spiders track the small insects that collect in basements, while carpenter ants and termites take advantage of damp wood near foundations, porches and docks. Wet, humid spots, especially near a lake house, need a regular look.
Weather and pests
How Boston Township's weather affects pest activity
Climate numbers help explain the seasons. They are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they show a general pattern and are not a forecast. July highs average about 81 degrees, January lows average near 16 degrees, and January is the coldest month.
Precipitation adds up to about 36 inches in a typical year, and May is the wettest month at roughly 4.0 inches, alongside around 54 inches of snow. Wet spring weather feeds mosquito populations and softens soil around foundations, which can pull carpenter ants and termites toward the house. Standing water in a boat trailer, wheelbarrow or bucket is enough to raise a new batch of mosquitoes within days.
Winter is cold enough that about 148 nights a year fall to freezing or below. Only around 7 days a year reach 90 degrees, so summers are comfortable but still warm enough to keep ants and wasps busy. Autumn is the best time to seal gaps, clear gutters and stack firewood off the ground, since that is when rodents and insects start looking for a winter home. A quick walk around the house each September pays off through the cold months.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Boston Township
Ant treatment in Boston Township
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Boston Township, 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 Boston Township
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Boston Township 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 Boston Township
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Boston Township home is built.
Cockroach control in Boston Township
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 Boston Township apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Boston Township
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 Boston Township
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Boston Township. 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.
