Pest Control Questions, Answered
Everything Colorado Springs homeowners ask us most, from cost to winter treatments.
Does pest control work during Colorado Springs winters?
Yes. While insect activity slows down in cold weather, winter is actually prime time for mice and rats seeking warmth indoors, so rodent control is especially important then. For ants, spiders, and roaches, we time exterior barrier treatments to Colorado Springs' seasons so pests are stopped before they become a problem again in spring.
Is your pest control safe for kids and pets?
We use EPA-registered products applied according to label directions, and we'll always let you know if any area needs to stay clear while a treatment dries or settles. If you have specific concerns about a pet or family member, let us know before your appointment and we'll walk you through the plan.
How often should I schedule pest control treatments?
It depends on what you're dealing with. Many Colorado Springs homes do well with quarterly general pest treatments to stay ahead of ants, spiders, and roaches year-round. Active rodent problems usually need a more focused visit schedule until trapping and exclusion are complete, then periodic check-ins.
What pests are most common in Colorado Springs homes?
Ants, spiders (including black widows), cockroaches, mice, and rats are the most common calls we get. Colorado Springs' mix of dry summers, cold winters, and open space along the Front Range means pests are frequently looking for food, water, and shelter indoors.
Do you treat black widow spiders?
Yes. Black widows are common in Colorado Springs garages, sheds, window wells, and woodpiles. We inspect known hot spots, remove webs and egg sacs, and apply targeted treatment to keep them from coming back.
How do I get rid of mice in my attic or garage?
Trapping alone usually isn't enough — we inspect the attic, garage, and crawlspace to find how mice are getting in, remove them, and seal the entry points so new mice can't take their place. We'll also give you sanitation tips to make your home less attractive to rodents going forward.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. If pests covered by your treatment plan return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and re-treat at no extra charge. Ask us for the specifics of your service plan when you schedule.
Do I need to leave my home during treatment?
Usually not. Most general pest and rodent treatments don't require you to leave, though we may ask you to keep kids or pets out of a specific treated area for a short time. We'll always explain what to expect before we start.
How much does pest control cost in Colorado Springs?
