Common Pests in Roanoke and Effective Control Methods
Did you know Roanoke’s warm climate is perfect for pests to thrive? Here are some of the most common pests we encounter in the area and how we deal with them:
- Ants
Ants are among the most common household invaders in Roanoke. We offer safe, effective ant control, whether you're dealing with carpenter ants, which can cause structural damage, or sugar ants, which contaminate food. Fun fact: carpenter ants can tunnel through wood, causing thousands of dollars in damage if left untreated. - Rodents
Mice and rats carry diseases, damage insulation, and chew through electrical wiring, creating fire hazards. Rodents can squeeze through holes the size of a dime. Our rodent control includes humane trapping, removal, and sealing entry points to prevent future infestations. - Termites
Did you know that termites never sleep? They can eat away at your home’s structure 24/7, leading to expensive repairs. Our termite control methods include detailed inspections, eco-friendly treatments, and preventive measures to protect your home long-term. - Spiders
While most spiders in Roanoke are harmless, species like the black widow or brown recluse pose serious risks. We safely remove these pests and help prevent their return by addressing the conditions that attract them.

Pest Facts for Roanoke Residents
Here are some interesting facts about the pests you might encounter in Roanoke:
- Ants are the #1 nuisance pest in the U.S.
Carpenter ants are common in Roanoke and can cause structural damage by hollowing out wood to build their nests. - Termites cause over $5 billion in damage annually in the U.S., and most homeowners’ insurance policies don’t cover termite damage. Early detection and treatment are crucial.
- Rodents can reproduce rapidly—a single pair of mice can produce up to 60 offspring in a year, leading to full-blown infestations in a matter of months.
