Pests we treat around Altus
Pests in Altus
What we deal with most around Altus, OK
In dry, hot country like this, pests are drawn to whatever moisture a house offers. Ants come inside for water, cockroaches gather around drains and leaky pipes, and spiders follow the insects that collect around outdoor lights. Wasps build quickly under eaves in warm months, and termites keep working in wood near irrigation lines and dripping spigots. Even in a dry year, a small leak can be the only invitation a pest needs.
When temperatures do fall, mice and other rodents move toward garages, sheds and attics for shelter. Fleas and ticks are also a concern for pets that spend time in the yard. Because the weather stays warm for so long, waiting until winter to think about pests rarely works. A steady schedule of exterior treatment plus attention to small repairs usually keeps a home ahead of the problem.
Weather and pests
How Altus's weather affects pest activity
Altus is one of the hotter and drier places in our Oklahoma service area. Using 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, July highs average about 97 degrees and January lows about 25. Annual precipitation is near 28 inches, with around 4 inches of snow, and May is usually the wettest month at about 4 inches. These numbers are a guide, not a forecast.
The heat is the story: about 100 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, which means summer covers a large part of the calendar. The normals also show around 86 nights at or below freezing, so winter still delivers real cold. That contrast means pests in Altus deal with a stressful year, and they respond by seeking out the steady temperatures and moisture found inside and beside buildings.
Spring is the time for a barrier treatment and a walk through the yard to find sprinkler leaks, clogged gutters and wood in contact with soil. In midsummer, keep vegetation trimmed off the walls and watch for wasp nests. In fall, seal up entry points around doors, vents and pipes. In winter, check garages and storage spaces. We would be glad to fit this rhythm to your home if you ask for a free quote.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Altus
Ant treatment in Altus
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Altus, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Hot summers keep colonies growing all season. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Altus
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Altus buildings offer plenty of all three. They can be a year-round issue. 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 Altus
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 Altus home is built.
Cockroach control in Altus
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 Altus apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Altus
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 Altus
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Altus. 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.

Serving Altus
Neighborhoods and parks in Altus
We provide service around Altus, including homes near University Heights Park, Heritage Way Park, Kiwanis Ball Park, High Tower Park and the Museum of the Western Prairie. Properties close to open park space usually need a bit more attention at the fence line and along landscaping. Where a yard is irrigated, we also look at sprinkler heads, hose connections and low spots, because in a place this dry even a small amount of moisture near a wall draws ants, roaches and spiders toward the house.
