Pest Control in Asheville, NC

5 local businesses listed

The pest calendar here is fairly predictable. Termites swarm in spring, carpenter ants show up where there’s damp wood, yellow jackets become a problem in late summer, and the first cold nights of fall send mice looking for a way in. Homes with crawl spaces — which is most of them — deal with whatever likes moisture, and that list is longer than anyone wants to read at dinner.

Carpenter ants deserve particular attention in this climate. They don’t eat wood, they nest in wood that’s already wet, which means finding them is usually a signal that something is leaking. Treating the ants without finding the moisture is treating a symptom.

The companies here serve Asheville and Fletcher, covering residential and commercial work.

If you’re buying a house, get a separate wood-destroying insect report rather than assuming the home inspection covers it. In much of Western North Carolina that report is standard for a reason, and it’s far cheaper than discovering the problem after closing.
