Pests we treat around Hastings
Pests in Hastings
What we deal with most around Hastings, NE
Mice and rats are among the most common problems in Hastings, especially once the weather cools and they start hunting for warm, sheltered spaces. Homes with crawl spaces, skirting or open utility gaps give them easy access, so sealing those points matters. Carpenter ants follow moisture into wood, and termites feed underground near foundations, porches and fence posts.
Hastings has about 139 nights a year at or below freezing and around 36 days a year at 90 degrees or higher, so pests are pushed in two directions. Cold sends rodents, boxelder bugs and stink bugs inside, while summer heat speeds up ants, wasps and flies and fills evenings with mosquitoes. Spiders and cockroaches take advantage of any season when there is food and moisture.
Weather and pests
How Hastings's weather affects pest activity
July highs in Hastings average about 88 degrees, January lows average around 16, and January is the coldest month. The area gets about 26 inches of precipitation in a typical year, and May is the wettest month at about 4.3 inches. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.
A wet May is when mosquitoes get going, since water collects in gutters, flower pots and low spots. The same moisture attracts termites and carpenter ants to foundations and decks. In the summer heat, insects head for shade, water and cool buildings, and when the freezing nights arrive in fall, mice test every gap around doors, pipes and skirting for a way in.
For Hastings homes, we suggest sealing cracks and starting exterior treatment in spring, clearing standing water and trimming plants back in summer, closing entry points early in fall, and checking attics, sheds and under-floor areas in winter.

How we fix it
Pest control services in Hastings
Ant treatment in Hastings
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Hastings, 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 Hastings
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Hastings 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 Hastings
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 Hastings home is built.
Cockroach control in Hastings
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 Hastings apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Hastings
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 Hastings
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Hastings. 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.
