Pests we treat around Selmer
Pests in Selmer
What we deal with most around Selmer, TN
In a place with a long warm season, insects have more generations and more time. About 59 days a year in Selmer reach 90 degrees or higher, which favors fast-breeding mosquitoes, fleas, ants and cockroaches. Termites are active in warm, damp soil for much of the year and often remain hidden until damage is done. Spiders and wasps settle around porches, sheds and eaves.
Winter does not end the problem. About 74 nights a year fall at or below freezing, and although that is a short season, mice and rats still move into attics, garages and crawl spaces, and stink bugs and boxelder bugs gather on warm walls. Because pests barely go dormant, year-round prevention makes more sense than a single seasonal treatment.
Weather and pests
How Selmer's weather affects pest activity
Selmer is hot in summer and mild in winter. July highs average about 90 degrees, January lows around 30, and July is the warmest month while January is the coldest. A typical year brings about 59 inches of precipitation and about 1 inch of snow. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide and not a forecast.
March is the wettest month, averaging about 5.8 inches, which means the ground is already wet as termites and ants become active for the year. Wet soil, low spots and slow-draining gutters help mosquitoes get started early too. In March, check that downspouts carry water away from foundations, and look at the wood around doors, windows and the base of the house for soft spots.
As spring turns to summer, keep containers dumped, shrubs trimmed off the siding and pet areas clean. During the long hot stretch, walk the property every couple of weeks for wasp nests, ant trails and new mounds of soil. In fall, seal gaps around doors, pipes and vents before nights begin to cool. Even in a mild winter, a check of attics and garages catches anything that moved in.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Selmer
Ant treatment in Selmer
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Selmer, 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 Selmer
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Selmer 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 Selmer
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 Selmer home is built.
Cockroach control in Selmer
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 Selmer apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Selmer
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 Selmer
Selmer'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.
