About our service
Pest control for Ferndale, MI
Ferndale has 19,431 residents and an impressive count of small parks, from Wilson Park and Garbutt Park to Dondero Park and Hyde Park. Where there are lots of parks and tightly spaced yards, pests move easily from one lot to the next, which is why we treat the surrounding blocks as part of the job and not just your own house.
Natural Pest Solutions provides ant treatment, rodent control, cockroach control and pest inspection for Ferndale homes and businesses. We use natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. You will not be locked into a long-term contract; a single visit is fine if that solves it. Ask for a free quote and we will explain what we find.

Pests we treat around Ferndale
Pests in Ferndale
What we deal with most around Ferndale, MI
In a place with a lot of shared fence lines, rodents and cockroaches are the calls we expect most. Mice slip through very small gaps at doors and utility lines, cockroaches gather where kitchens, bathrooms and basements share moisture, and ants send scouts into pantries as soon as something sweet is left out. Spiders, wasps and stink bugs round out the list, especially around porches and garages.
Ferndale gets about 112 nights a year at or below freezing, which is fewer than many Michigan communities but still enough to push pests toward warm buildings each fall. Summer is warmer, with about 13 days at 90 degrees or higher, and that heat speeds up ant colonies and lets mosquitoes multiply in any standing water.
Weather and pests
How Ferndale's weather affects pest activity
July is the warmest month in Ferndale, with highs averaging about 84 degrees, and January is the coldest, with lows near 20. A typical year brings about 30 inches of precipitation, with May the wettest month at roughly 3.5 inches. Those numbers are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so think of them as a guide rather than a forecast.
Spring rain is the trigger for a lot of pest activity. Water pooling in gutters, window wells and low spots feeds mosquitoes, and damp wood at porches and sills invites carpenter ants and termites. Because lots are compact, one neighbor's standing water can affect several yards, so a quick walk around the property after a storm is worth the few minutes it takes.
As the year winds down, the focus shifts indoors. Seal gaps around pipes, vents and garage doors, store food in sealed containers, and tidy up basements and attics where mice like to nest. For bigger or repeated problems, a pest inspection from a technician can find the entry points that are easy to miss.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Ferndale
Ant treatment in Ferndale
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Ferndale, 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 Ferndale
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Ferndale 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 Ferndale
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 Ferndale home is built.
Cockroach control in Ferndale
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 Ferndale apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Ferndale
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 Ferndale
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Ferndale. 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.
