THE CITY OF DUPONT, WA

Just southwest of Joint Base Lewis-McChord in southern Pierce County is the City of DuPont. The city is overflowing with small town charm, comprised of the older Village Historic district and newly developed Northwest Landing. DuPont features an abundance of restaurants, museums, shops, and spots for outdoor recreation. From the DuPont Historical Museum to Eagles Pride Golf Course, there is no shortage of fun activities for everyone in DuPont!

As with its neighbors in Pierce County, there are a wide variety of pests that call DuPont home. Despite its predominantly suburban makeup, the city’s relative abundance of green belts and access to the Puget Sound have made it an attractive location for all manner of rodents and insects.

PEST MANAGEMENT SERVICES IN DUPONT

Washington State is home to a variety of different ant species. Odorous House Ants are one of the most common species that we see in DuPont, typically found in kitchens or bathrooms. Pavement Ants are also a common sight along sidewalks and driveways. While neither are dangerous, they can be a major nuisance, often making their way into homes and businesses while foraging for food.

Rodents are another concern for DuPont. Rodents are adept scavengers, making their way into homes through damaged or poorly sealed entry points. Though not aggressive, rodents are known carriers of disease, including the hantavirus. They are also notorious burrowers, eating away at wires, drywall, and wood while making their nests. As such, infestations should not be taken lightly.

Stinging insects are a regular occurrence in DuPont, especially during the summer. These insects typically like to build their hives in elevated locations, such as in trees or the eaves of roofs, though some species will build their nests underground. While honeybees and bumblebees are normally not aggressive, other stinging insects such as yellow jackets, wasps, and hornets are extremely territorial and should be avoided.

PEST SERVICES

ANT CONTROL

Treating an ant infestation is a fairly complicated process. Our ant treatment involves a significant amount of detective work, specialized interior baiting, and liquid chemical treatments, as well as an exterior chemical application to the home or building and various areas on the property.

RODENT CONTROL

Managing and establishing effective prevention methods for rodent infestations can be extremely time consuming. It requires a thorough inspection, repair of any rodent entry points, mechanical trap installation, and bait station placement. Our process sets us apart from many of the other pest companies, as we do exclusion as part of the solution.

SPIDER CONTROL

There are various species of spiders found throughout Washington and the Puget Sound region. While spiders in general can be beneficial in the elimination of other pests, their bites should be avoided.

BED BUG CONTROL

As their name implies, bed bugs are often found in or around beds and bedrooms and signs of their presence are easy enough to identify. They are notoriously difficult to locate due to their skill at hiding, and made even more challenging by their fast maturity rate and longer life span. Identifying the origin and scope of an infestation requires more detailed inquiry.
