Pest control for Gallup, NM
With cold winters, real snowfall and cool summers, Gallup asks something different of pest control than the hotter, lower parts of New Mexico. About 20,300 people call the city home, and their houses, apartments and businesses all face the same challenge: keeping pests out when winter pushes everything toward heated buildings. Places such as Babe Ruth Park, Bubany Park, the Octavia Fellin Public Library and UNM Gallup are part of the daily map for many of our customers.
We are Natural Pest Solutions, and we provide ant treatment, rodent control, termite control, spider control and pest inspection service in Gallup. Our natural pest control options rely on non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. You will not be asked to sign a long-term contract, and the first step is always a free quote.

Pests we treat around Gallup
Pests in Gallup
What we deal with most around Gallup, NM
Rodents lead the list in Gallup. Mice, and sometimes rats, get into garages, crawl spaces, attics and wall voids as soon as the weather turns, and they leave droppings, chew wiring and contaminate stored food. Spiders follow insects indoors, and cockroaches hold on in warm kitchens, bathrooms and apartment buildings where plumbing is shared between units.
Once the snow melts, ants become active again, and carpenter ants may work into wood that has been softened by melting snow, roof leaks or poor drainage. Wasps nest under eaves and in sheds during the warmer months, and fleas can appear wherever pets have been. Termites are less common at this elevation than in low desert towns, but wood in contact with soil is still worth checking. Sealing gaps in the fall does the most good.
Weather and pests
How Gallup's weather affects pest activity
The figures here are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, and they are a guide, not a forecast. Gallup gets about 13 inches of precipitation in a typical year and about 21 inches of snow. July highs average only about 87 degrees, January lows average about 16, and December is usually the coldest month. August is the wettest month at about 2.4 inches.
The most important number for pest control is 166 nights a year at or below freezing. That is a long stretch during which mice, spiders and overwintering insects are searching for warmth. Summer heat is a small factor by comparison, with only about 29 days a year at 90 degrees or higher, though warm spells still bring out ants and wasps.
Because winter is so long, the fall checkup matters most. Seal gaps around doors, vents and pipes, store firewood away from the walls and clear leaves from the foundation. When the snow melts in spring, look for moisture near the base of the house, since dampness draws carpenter ants and other pests. Late summer rain can leave puddles that breed mosquitoes.

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