Common Pests in Mount Pleasant, SC
Termites
Termites love damp soil and mild winters, exactly what we have here. They tunnel quietly under and into your home, feeding on wood, trim, and framing long before you see anything obvious.
Ants
From fire ants building mounds near the driveway to tiny sugar ants exploring every crumb, ants are a regular part of life here. They nest in mulch beds, along foundations, and anywhere there's moisture and food.
Cockroaches
Roaches thrive in warm, humid areas like garages, kitchens, and laundry rooms. They can slip through tiny gaps, ride in with boxes, and make themselves at home behind appliances.
Rodents
Rats and mice don't need much space to squeeze in. Once inside, they chew wires, damage insulation, and leave droppings in attics, crawlspaces, and storage areas.
Spiders
Spiders follow the food. If bugs are hanging around lights, windows, or garages, spiders won't be far behind. Most are harmless, but that doesn't mean you want them on the walls.
Fleas, Ticks & Mites
With so many pet-friendly neighborhoods and outdoor spaces, fleas and ticks can become a problem fast. They bite, itch, and can carry diseases that affect pets and people.
Chinch Bugs & Lawn Pests
In your lawn, chinch bugs and other insects can quietly turn green turf into brown, patchy spots. We can help identify and address these issues as part of your overall service.
Hornets & Wasps
Nests under eaves, in shrubs, or near play areas can make you think twice before spending time outside. We treat nests and help reduce stinging insect hotspots.
Bed Bugs
Travel, guests, and used furniture can all bring bed bugs into town. They hide in seams, cracks, and baseboards, biting at night and requiring careful treatment to remove.
Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes love marshy air and standing water. They make porches, decks, and backyards tough to enjoy once the sun dips.
