Other Pests We Treat in Boise, ID

What Counts as “Other” Pests?

These are the bugs and critters that don’t always have their own spotlight, but are still frustrating for homeowners. Our “Other Pests” coverage includes:

• Earwigs – Those creepy, pincher-tailed insects that love damp basements and bathrooms
  
• Boxelder Bugs – Harmless but persistent fall invaders that gather by the hundreds on siding and windows
  
• Clover Mites – Tiny red specks often found crawling around windowsills in spring
  
• Pillbugs / Sowbugs (roly-polies) – Moisture-loving pests found in garages, mulch beds, and basements
  
• Springtails – Tiny jumping insects that appear near sinks, tubs, and wet spots
  
• Crickets – Loud, fast-moving insects that can sneak inside and become hard to find
  
• Stink Bugs – Shield-shaped invaders that make a mess (and a smell) when squished
  
• Weevils, Pantry Moths & Grain Beetles – Kitchen pests that infest dry goods and packaged food
  
• Silverfish – Shiny, fast, and usually hiding in bookshelves or bathroom corners
  

We also deal with many other occasional invaders—if it’s a bug in your home, we’ll help you get rid of it.

Why These Pests Are Common in Boise

Boise’s climate—with its dry summers, irrigated lawns, and cold winters—creates ideal conditions for seasonal invaders. Many of these pests:

• Sneak in through tiny cracks and gaps
  
• Are attracted to moisture, food, or warmth
  
• Breed outdoors and move inside in fall or spring
  
• Can live unnoticed for weeks or months before being detected
  

You may notice a surge in activity after a cold snap, heavy rain, or lawn treatments that push insects toward your home.
