Common pests we treat in Fort Collins

Ants in Fort Collins

From sugar ants on the counter to carpenter ants in the framing, Fort Collins households see a range of species — and the wrong store-bought spray can split a colony into several. A exterminator identifies the species and uses non-repellent baits that wipe out the entire nest.

Termites in Fort Collins

In Fort Collins, termites often reveal themselves through mud tubes, discarded wings, or hollow-sounding wood. Because colonies hide underground or deep in the framing, a exterminator uses targeted barriers or bait stations to reach the queen — something DIY sprays simply can't do.

Mice & Rats in Fort Collins

Rodents are among the most common cold-season pests in the Fort Collins area, and trapping alone rarely ends an infestation. A licensed exterminator seals entry points across your home and Larimer County property so new rodents can't simply replace the ones removed.

Mosquitoes in Fort Collins

Because mosquitoes breed in containers as small as a bottle cap, Fort Collins yards can stay buggy with no obvious pond in sight. A licensed exterminator treats resting foliage and standing water on a recurring schedule to hold the population down all season.

Cockroaches in Fort Collins

Spotting a roach during the day in Fort Collins usually means a large hidden population. A licensed exterminator treats harborage with baits and growth regulators and coaches you on the sanitation that keeps roaches from coming back.

Spiders in Fort Collins

Spider sightings climb across Fort Collins each fall as males roam to find mates. A licensed exterminator de-webs, treats the perimeter, and cuts down the prey insects spiders feed on so they have less reason to move in.

Wasps & Hornets in Fort Collins

A wasp or hornet nest near a Fort Collins doorway is a stinging hazard that's risky to tackle alone. A licensed exterminator treats the nest at dusk when the colony is calm and removes it once the activity stops.

Bed Bugs in Fort Collins

Bed bugs hitchhike into Fort Collins homes on luggage and used furniture, and they hide where sprays can't reach. A exterminator typically uses heat treatment that kills every life stage in one visit, paired with targeted residual products and follow-up checks.

Pest prevention tips for Fort Collins homes

• Keep firewood and mulch away from the foundation, where they give pests easy cover.
• Fix moisture problems — leaks, clogged gutters, and damp crawl spaces invite termites and roaches.
• Screen vents, chimneys, and crawl-space openings to keep out rodents and wildlife.
• Take out trash regularly and use tight-fitting lids so you don't attract roaches and rodents.
• Empty standing water weekly from saucers, birdbaths, and buckets to stop mosquitoes breeding.
• Trim shrubs and tree branches back from the house so pests can't bridge indoors.
• Seal cracks and gaps around Fort Collins doors, windows, and utility lines to cut off entry points.
