🐿️ Hearing scratching above the ceiling or seeing squirrels running along your roofline?

Tree squirrels may look harmless outside, but once they find a way into an attic or eave, they can become a real problem. Squirrels may chew on wood, siding, insulation, and even electrical wiring while building a protected nesting area.

Common warning signs include:
• Scratching or movement in the attic
• Squirrels entering near soffits, vents, or rooflines
• Chewed wood or exterior materials
• Nesting material inside attic spaces

STL Pest Control can inspect the problem, identify entry points, remove squirrels using humane methods, and help prevent them from getting back inside.

Since 1989, we’ve helped St. Louis homeowners protect their homes from pests and nuisance wildlife.

If you live in a classic South City bungalow or a historic home near Tower Grove, you know charm often comes with "character": and sometimes that character wears a mask.

Aging rooflines are an open invitation for St. Louis raccoons this summer. A loose soffit or weathered fascia might seem minor, but it's a front door to a raccoon seeking a nest. Pair that with overhanging branches, and you’ve provided a private staircase to your attic.

You’ll hear them first: heavy thumping or scratching in the night. You might notice pulled shingles or insulation near gutters. DIY fixes are dangerous; cornered raccoons are unpredictable and carry health risks. Professional exclusion is the only way to ensure they don’t return.

We’ve been protecting St. Louis homes since 1989. We know how these local "break-ins" happen and how to stop them for good.

Fall is when the wildlife calls start coming in. As the nights cool off and the weather swings, raccoons, squirrels, and opossums go looking for somewhere warm and dry, and an attic, chimney, or crawl space fits the bill perfectly.

If you're hearing scratching overhead more than once, especially after dark, or you've spotted droppings in the garage or an animal slipping under the deck, that's usually the point where it's worth having someone take a look. Raccoons, squirrels, opossums, skunks, groundhogs, and occasionally bats or birds in vents all end up in St. Louis homes for the same reasons: warmth, shelter, and an easy meal.

Removing the animal is only part of the job, though. We start with an inspection to confirm what we're dealing with, how it got in, and where it's nesting, then remove it humanely using methods suited to the species. If there are young involved, we handle that properly instead of just sealing things up. From there we locate and address the entry points that let it inside: roofline gaps and construction openings, attic and gable vents, chimney access, soffit and fascia returns, and foundation or crawl space openings. Skip that step and the same problem tends to show up again next season.

We'll also walk you through what attracted them in the first place, because small changes around the property usually make a real difference. For an estimate, call 314-833-6222 or contact us today.

Termites work quietly, and by the time most homeowners notice anything, the repair bill has already been adding up for years. There's one moment when protecting a home costs far less than it ever will again, and that moment is before the concrete gets poured.

That's what termite pre-treatment is. While a home or commercial building is under construction, our licensed technicians apply a professional termiticide to the prepared soil, the foundation areas, and around the plumbing penetrations, all before the slab goes in. Once that concrete sets, the barrier is locked in place right where subterranean termites are most likely to find their way inside.

It isn't only new builds, either. If you're adding a porch or patio, replacing a slab, installing a sump pump, waterproofing the foundation from the outside, or having a porch mud jacked, those are all moments worth building protection into while everything is still open.

We work directly with homeowners, builders, and contractors so the treatment happens correctly and at the right stage of the project, and we're glad to coordinate with your build team on the details that make a difference: keeping wood off the soil, sloping the grade away from the foundation, ventilating the crawlspace, and keeping siding and trim up above grade.

If you've been avoiding your own backyard this summer, you're not alone. St. Louis gives mosquitoes what they need: humidity, shade, and standing water. A single hardware-store spray may knock down the adults flying today, but it won't address breeding sites or the shaded areas where mosquitoes rest.

Look for water in planter trays, kiddie pools, birdbaths, tarps, buckets, clogged gutters, and low spots in the yard. Dense shrubs and shaded tree lines also give mosquitoes places to hide during the hottest part of the day.

Our approach is simple: inspect, treat, and maintain. We walk your property to find breeding sites and resting areas, address water where larvae develop, and treat shrubs, landscaping, tree lines, shaded edges, patios, entry points, and areas under decks or overhangs. Because mosquito pressure changes week to week, recurring visits help maintain better control throughout the season. Flea and tick yard protection can be added for homes with pets.

You can help by dumping standing water weekly, refreshing birdbaths every few days, keeping gutters flowing, and trimming overgrown shrubs. For an estimate, call 314-833-6222 or contact us today.

Every fall, the calls start coming in. The nights cool off, and mice and rats begin looking for somewhere warm to spend the winter, which usually turns out to be somebody's house.

A mouse only needs a gap about the size of a quarter to slip inside, so most homeowners never find the spot they came through. If you're hearing scratching in the walls at night, finding droppings behind the pantry, or spotting chew marks on food packaging, it's worth taking seriously. They'll gnaw on wiring too, and that's a real fire risk.

Our approach is pretty straightforward. We come out, figure out exactly what we're dealing with and where they're getting in, then remove them and seal those openings so they can't use the same way in twice. A few things on your end help as well: seal the gaps around utility lines and along the foundation, keep food in airtight containers, and trim branches back from the roof.

Rodent service is included in our STL Pest & Rodents and STL Complete Home Protection programs. For an estimate, call STL Pest Control or contact us today.

Pest control works best when you’re not waiting for a problem to get out of hand.

In St. Louis, pest activity changes with the seasons. Ants and termites can become active in spring, mosquitoes and wasps ramp up in summer, spiders move in as temperatures shift, and mice start looking for shelter when cooler weather arrives.

That’s why year-round pest protection makes sense.

Instead of waiting until pests show up inside your home, a proactive program helps monitor activity, treat problem areas, and stay ahead of seasonal changes before they become bigger headaches.

At STL Pest Control, we’ve been helping St. Louis homeowners protect their homes since 1989.
