Charlotte Pest Control at a glance
Charlotte Pest Control takes pest calls for Charlotte and the towns around it, from Ballantyne and University City to Matthews, Huntersville and Tega Cay. The line is answered around the clock. A local technician inspects the foundation, the wood, the attic and the outside edges, explains what is living there and what the treatment involves, and sets out the cost on site.
Charlotte's pest calendar runs long. Termite swarmers can appear from late winter into September or October, usually in daylight after warm rain. Carpenter ants work through wood that has been wet, and carpenter bees leave coarse sawdust under their holes in spring. Mosquitoes breed in gutters and bird baths through the summer, and the Asian tiger mosquito bites in daylight.
A single swarmer near a stump in the yard does not mean the house is infested. Swarmers inside usually do. The termite swarm guide explains how to tell them apart, and the cost guide sets out what moves a quote.

Which pest calls come to Charlotte Pest Control?
Termites and their mud tubes, carpenter ants and carpenter bees, rodents in attics and walls, stink bugs and lady beetles entering in autumn, spiders, and mosquitoes and ticks around the property.
