If you’ve lived in Charleston long enough, you know our “winter” feels more like spring anywhere else. The mild days and humid nights keep pests comfortable, and when the temperature dips just a little, they head indoors for warmth and food.

Palmetto bugs, ants, and rodents are the main culprits this time of year. They sneak into attics, crawl spaces, and kitchens, turning cozy homes into perfect hiding spots. At Fairway Lawns, our winter pest control services in Charleston are built around this reality, protecting Lowcountry homes from pests that stay active all year long.

Why Pest Control Matters in Winter

Charleston’s coastal winters are mild, but that doesn’t mean pest-free. In fact, the warmth and moisture make this one of the most active times for indoor pests.
Cockroaches, especially Palmetto bugs, look for shelter near water sources. Ants stay active inside walls and near kitchen sinks. And rats, particularly roof rats, slip into attics and crawl spaces to nest through the season.

Pro Tip: Roof rats can climb brick, siding, and even tree branches to reach your attic. Trimming tree limbs away from your roof is one of the best ways to keep them out.

Common Winter Pests We Treat

Cockroach Control

Charleston’s humidity means roaches never really slow down. Palmetto bugs and German cockroaches are common indoors this time of year. We use safe, targeted treatments to eliminate them from kitchens, bathrooms, and basements, where they love to hide.

Ant Control

Argentine and fire ants are frequent winter visitors in Charleston homes. They follow moisture and warmth, building colonies near plumbing and cracks in walls. We locate the source, treat it directly, and build a barrier to keep them from coming back.

Rodent Control

When the weather cools, rats and mice look for warmth in attics and crawl spaces. Roof rats are especially common near the coast. We trap and remove them safely, then seal off entry points to keep them out for good.

Bed Bug Treatment

Holiday travel often brings bed bugs back to Charleston homes in winter. We provide fast, effective treatments that completely eliminate them, so you can rest easy again.

When to Schedule Winter Pest Service

The best time to schedule winter pest control in Charleston is from November through February, before pests have time to nest indoors. Even though the weather is mild, indoor infestations can spread quickly.

Did You Know?

  • Palmetto bugs can survive outdoors in temperatures down to 40°F, that’s why they’re still active in Charleston when other places freeze.
