About our service
Pest control for Kentwood, MI
Kentwood is home to nearly 55,000 people, with parks such as Stanaback Park, Old Farm Park, Oxford Park, Summerwood Park and Ken-O-Sha Park spread through the city. For a pest technician, every open lawn and wooded edge is a reminder that wildlife and insects live right alongside the houses, and that a good plan pays attention to the yard as well as the inside of the home.
That is the idea behind Natural Pest Solutions in Kentwood. We provide termite control, rodent control, ant treatment and cockroach control, backed by natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. We do not tie anyone to a long-term contract, and you can start by requesting a free quote.

Pests in Kentwood
What we deal with most around Kentwood, MI
In West Michigan, the year usually starts with rodents. Mice and other small animals look for warmth from fall through winter, and they find their way in through the tiniest gaps around garage doors, dryer vents and pipe chases. Once inside, they nest in insulation, chew wiring and leave droppings that can affect a household's health.
When the ground thaws, carpenter ants and termites resume feeding in damp or decaying wood, and ants of every kind start looking for food in kitchens. Summer brings mosquitoes, wasps and ticks, especially where grass meets woods or a trail. Stink bugs and boxelder bugs finish out the year by clustering on sun-warmed siding before slipping indoors.
Weather and pests
How Kentwood's weather affects pest activity
Kentwood's weather has four clear seasons. The figures that follow are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, meant as a guide and not as a forecast. July is the warmest month, with highs averaging about 82 degrees, and January lows average around 17 degrees.
The area receives about 39 inches of precipitation in a typical year, which is on the wetter side for the state, and May is the wettest month at around 4 inches. All that moisture keeps soil and mulch damp, which suits carpenter ants, termites and mosquito larvae, so grading, gutters and downspouts are worth checking each spring.
Winters are long here, with roughly 140 nights a year at or below freezing. That stretch sends rodents and hibernating insects into garages, basements and attics. Summers are the milder side of the story, with only about 8 days a year reaching 90 degrees, but warm damp weeks still bring plenty of insects out.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Kentwood
Ant treatment in Kentwood
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Kentwood, 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 Kentwood
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Kentwood 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 Kentwood
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 Kentwood home is built.
Cockroach control in Kentwood
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 Kentwood apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Kentwood
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 Kentwood
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Kentwood. 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.
