Pests in Franklin
What we deal with most around Franklin, WI
Franklin homes near preserves and wooded lots can see a lot of mosquitoes and ticks once the weather warms, and outdoor gatherings are where most people first notice them. Carpenter ants are drawn to wet or rotting wood, wasps like sheltered spots under decks and eaves, and mice look for the warmth of garages, sheds and basements. Cockroaches and spiders are steady visitors to any home with moisture or clutter to hide in.
Because the fall brings big changes, that is when we see the most calls about boxelder bugs and stink bugs on sunny walls. Franklin has about 159 nights a year at or below freezing, which keeps pressure on rodents and overwintering insects for a long stretch. Sealing gaps around utility lines, vents and doors before that first freeze is the most practical thing a homeowner can do.
Weather and pests
How Franklin's weather affects pest activity
Franklin's climate has warm summers and cold winters. The numbers below are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, meant as a guide, not a forecast. July highs average about 83 degrees and January lows about 12. The area sees about 38 inches of precipitation in a typical year, and June is the wettest month with roughly 5.6 inches.
Roughly 12 days each year reach 90 degrees or higher. During those stretches, ants forage more actively and mosquitoes complete their life cycle faster, especially where water sits in a clogged downspout or a low corner of the lawn. Heavy June rain also soaks the soil beside foundations, which can attract termites and carpenter ants toward the wood of a house.
Winter is long here, with about 159 nights at or below freezing. That is the season when mice move into attics and wall voids, and when you may hear scratching at night. A useful habit is to walk around the house each fall and again in late winter, looking at siding, vents, garage doors and the spots where pipes enter the structure.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Franklin
Ant treatment in Franklin
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Franklin, 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 Franklin
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Franklin 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 Franklin
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 Franklin home is built.
Cockroach control in Franklin
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 Franklin apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Franklin
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 Franklin
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Franklin. 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.
