About our service
Pest control for Rome, NY
Rome is a city of about 32,000 people, and its winters are among the coldest we handle, so keeping pests out of a house is a matter of timing. When the first frosts arrive, mice, ants and other insects begin looking for warm shelter, and a home with even a small gap can become their target. Areas near Wiggins Park, Peterpaul Recreation Park and Liberty Gardens see this each fall.
Natural Pest Solutions offers ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and pest inspection in Rome. Our natural pest control options use non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. We do not require a long-term contract, and every job starts with a free quote.

Pests we treat around Rome
Pests in Rome
What we deal with most around Rome, NY
The pressure from rodents is steady, particularly from late fall through winter. Mice can enter through openings as small as a dime, and they settle into attics, basements and wall voids. Carpenter ants attack wood that stays damp, termites feed unseen in framing, and cockroaches live where warmth and moisture are easy to find. Homeowners often ask about spider control after seeing webs in garages, cellars and window wells.
In summer, mosquitoes and wasps become the main outdoor nuisances, and ticks are worth watching in grass and brush. Boxelder bugs and stink bugs gather on sunny walls in the fall, fleas ride in on pets, and bed bugs travel with people and belongings.
Weather and pests
How Rome's weather affects pest activity
Rome has cold winters and warm, fairly humid summers. January lows average about 13 degrees, July highs about 81, and a typical year brings about 44 inches of precipitation. October is the wettest month at roughly 4.7 inches. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are a guide, not a forecast. The station's snowfall figure is effectively zero, so do not rely on it.
About 147 nights a year fall to freezing or below, while only about 7 days reach 90 degrees or higher. A long cold season sets up a strong push of rodents and overwintering insects toward heated buildings, and wet October weather can leave debris damp against foundations just as that push begins.
For most homes, the calendar is straightforward. Check wood and gutters in spring. In summer, empty water sources and look under eaves for nests. In early fall, seal gaps in the foundation, garage and utility lines, and in winter, keep an eye on the attic and basement.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Rome
Ant treatment in Rome
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Rome, 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 Rome
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Rome 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 Rome
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Rome home is built.
Cockroach control in Rome
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 Rome apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Rome
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 Rome
Rome's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. 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.
