Across Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs is spread out, and pest pressure changes with the neighborhood. On the north and east sides, newer subdivisions near open land see mice, spiders and crickets as fields are developed and nights cool down. Older homes on the west side and in the central neighborhoods tend to have more gaps around doors, vents and utility lines, which lets rodents and overwintering insects in.
Homes near the foothills, greenbelts and creeks see more wildlife, wasps and spiders. Mature trees in established neighborhoods bring boxelder bugs, squirrels and raccoons. Apartments and rentals across the city deal more with cockroaches and bed bugs moving between units.
Most homes here do best with recurring residential pest control, with separate service for rodents, bed bugs and wasp nests when needed. Businesses can start with commercial pest control. Outside the city we also serve Monument, Falcon and Peyton, Security-Widefield, Fountain, Manitou Springs, Woodland Park and Pueblo.
