Pet-Friendly Pest Control in Indian River Shores

Residential Pest Control in Indian River Shores, FL

Our residential pest control programs give Indian River Shores homeowners long-term protection against the most common Florida pests. We start with a thorough inspection of your property to identify active problems and potential risk areas.

For your initial service, our technicians will treat your home inside and out. We place long-lasting granular bait in attic areas to control ants and palmetto bugs that might nest in your insulation. In kitchens, we apply borate dust behind electrical outlets to stop ants and German cockroaches from invading your living spaces.

Outside your home, we remove all spider webs and wasp nests from your eaves and exterior walls. We then apply granular insect bait along the foundation and nearby plant beds for long-term control of crawling insects like ants, cockroaches, millipedes, centipedes, and earwigs.

After eliminating existing pests, we maintain protection with regular exterior treatments on a schedule that works for you. This prevents new infestations without you needing to be home for every service.

Our residential pest control services include:

• Quarterly pest control maintenance
• Every-other-month service plans
• Monthly pest control service
• Spider web removal
• Wasp nest removal
• Free follow-up treatments if pests return between regular visits

With Native Pest Management, you get guaranteed protection backed by our commitment to customer satisfaction. If you spot pests between scheduled visits, we'll return for a free follow-up treatment.

Rodent Control in Indian River Shores, FL

Rodents in Indian River Shores can cause serious problems for homeowners. The most common sign of rodent activity is hearing scratching or scuffling noises in your attic at night. You might also find small black pellets on countertops, holes in food packaging, or greasy marks along walls.

Roof rats and mice can destroy insulation, damage electrical wiring, and contaminate your home with disease-causing droppings. These pests can enter through spaces as small as a nickel and travel up to 300 feet from their nests in search of food.

Our rodent control experts will place traps strategically along rodent runways in your home. We identify these pathways by looking for urine, droppings, and rub marks all over your property. Since roof rats often have families of five to ten, we place enough traps to eliminate the entire population quickly.

To prevent future infestations, we seal potential entry points around your home, including:

• AC chases where air conditioning lines enter
• Plumbing vents on the roof
• Roof returns and soffit vents
• Gable vent screens
• Damaged garage door seals

After trapping and exclusion work, we install tamper-proof bait stations around your home's exterior for long-term protection. These stations are checked and refilled regularly to maintain continuous rodent control.

Termite Control in Indian River Shores, FL

In Indian River Shores, we regularly identify drywood and subterranean termites, including the invasive Formosan "super" termites. These destructive pests can cause significant damage to homes if left untreated.

Our termite inspection process starts with inspecting your property. We check attic spaces, door frames, windowsills, and other areas where termites commonly infest. Based on our findings, we'll recommend the most effective treatment plan.

For drywood termites, we offer tent fumigation and no-tent termite treatments. Our no-tent option allows you to stay in your home during treatment and avoids the hassle of removing food, boarding pets, or preparing your home for tenting.

Here are ways to help prevent termites in Indian River Shores:

• Pick up fruit dropped from trees
• Install exterior rodent bait stations
• Remove dead tree stumps
• Seal entry points to prevent termite swarmers from entering
• Replace mulch with stones or pebbles
• Fix leaky pipes that provide moisture for termites
• Install termite bait stations to control subterranean termites
• Schedule annual termite inspections that include your attic

All our termite control methods come with a one-year warranty. If termites return within that period, we'll retreat at no additional cost. This warranty is transferable if you sell your home, and can be renewed annually for ongoing protection.

Mosquito Control in Indian River Shores, FL

Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance in Indian River Shores - they can make outdoor activities miserable and potentially spread diseases. Our climate creates perfect breeding conditions for these pests year-round, especially in areas near water.

Native Pest Management's mosquito control program targets adult mosquitoes and their breeding sites. We apply biological larvicides to standing water on your property, preventing mosquitoes from developing for up to 30 days. These treatments are organic and harmless to people, pets, birds, and fish.

Along with larvicide application, we use backpack foggers to treat vegetation where adult mosquitoes rest during the day. This creates a barrier around your property that reduces mosquito populations.

Common DIY mosquito control methods like citronella candles and repellent torches provide temporary relief in small areas. Our professional treatments target the source of the problem for lasting results.

For effective mosquito control in Indian River Shores, we recommend:

• Discarding standing water in containers, old tires, and bird baths
• Keeping gutters clean and properly draining
• Maintaining your pool with proper chemicals
• Repairing tears in window and door screens
• Professional mosquito treatments during peak season

With our mosquito control service, you can enjoy your outdoor spaces without constant swatting and itchy bites.

Cockroach Control in Indian River Shores, FL

Cockroaches in Indian River Shores homes can spread bacteria, trigger allergies, and create unpleasant odors. These pests thrive in our warm, humid climate and can be difficult to eliminate without professional help.

The most common species we treat are American cockroaches (palmetto bugs) and German cockroaches. American cockroaches typically live outdoors but enter homes through gaps around doors, windows, and pipes. German cockroaches are smaller and primarily infest kitchens and bathrooms where food and moisture are available.

Our cockroach control program includes thorough inspection to identify harborage areas, followed by targeted treatments using gel baits, growth regulators, and dust applications in wall voids. We focus on cracks and crevices where cockroaches hide during the day and emerge at night to feed.

For long-term cockroach prevention, we recommend keeping food in sealed containers, fixing water leaks promptly, sealing entry points around plumbing, and maintaining regular pest control service. Our quarterly treatments create a protective barrier that stops cockroaches before they can establish colonies in your home.

Ant Control in Indian River Shores, FL

Indian River Shores residents often battle various ant species, with ghost ants (sometimes called sugar ants) being the most common household invader. These tiny ants can be hard to spot, especially on dark-colored countertops.

Ghost ants typically enter homes searching for water, starting in kitchens and bathrooms. They form trails along baseboards and behind cabinets, making them difficult to locate without professional inspection. Their colonies usually originate outside your home.

Many ant species in Florida are attracted to honeydew, a sugary substance produced by aphids, scale insects, mealybugs, and whiteflies that feed on shrubs and trees. Treating inside your home won't provide long-term ant prevention without addressing these exterior food sources.

Our ant control program includes careful inspection to identify ant trails and colony locations, targeted interior treatments, and exterior applications to eliminate ant populations at their source. We use a combination of liquid residuals, granular baits, and gel baits strategically placed to reach the queen and entire colony, not just the worker ants.
