Name(Required)

If you’ve spent a winter in Columbia, you know it doesn’t get freezing for long, just cold enough for pests to start looking for a warm, dry place to hide. That place, unfortunately, is often your home. When the nights cool down, ants, cockroaches, and rodents start slipping through cracks, vents, and crawl spaces to escape the chill.

At Fairway Lawns, we know exactly how to handle it. Our winter pest control services are built for South Carolina’s mild winters, the kind where you still see bugs in December and hear the occasional scratch in the attic at night. We don’t just spray and go; we look for what’s causing the problem, seal up the entry points, and keep your home protected through every cold front and warm spell that comes our way.

Why Pest Control Matters in Winter

Even when the weather cools off, pests don’t disappear. They slow down outside, and move in with you. Warm homes, steady food sources, and South Carolina’s damp air make the perfect winter getaway for pests like ants, roaches, and mice.
Rodents chew on wires and insulation. Cockroaches spread bacteria through kitchens. Ants show up anywhere there’s water or crumbs. And bed bugs? They thrive in heated indoor spaces all winter long.

Ignoring them in winter doesn’t make them go away, it just gives them a head start on spring.

Pro Tip: Cockroaches can live for weeks without food and still multiply. Tackling them now keeps your home cleaner and healthier year-round.

Common Winter Pests We Treat

Rodent Control

When it gets chilly, mice and rats love cozy attics, basements, and crawl spaces. You might hear them scurrying at night or notice droppings in dark corners. We find their entry points, remove them safely, and seal up gaps so they can’t come back.

Cockroach Control

In Columbia’s humid winters, roaches never really go away, they just move indoors. They hide in warm, damp spots like under sinks, behind fridges, and near dishwashers. Our low-odor treatments target where they live and break the cycle before it grows.

Ant Control

Ants stay active all winter in Columbia. When outdoor food runs low, they follow moisture and crumbs inside. We locate the source, treat the nests, and create a barrier to keep them from returning.

Bed Bug Treatment

Between holiday travel and heated homes, winter is prime time for bed bugs. If you’re waking up with bites or spotting small stains on sheets, we use advanced heat and chemical treatments to eliminate them, safely and completely.

When to Schedule Winter Pest Service

Here in Columbia, it’s best to schedule pest service between November and February, before pests have a chance to nest indoors. Our preventive approach keeps infestations under control all winter and gives your home a fresh start come spring.

Did You Know?

  • Because Columbia winters are so mild, pests never really “die off.” Skipping winter pest control gives them a chance to settle in and breed, so spring hits harder.
