Washington Pest Season Calendar
Temperate climate with distinct seasons creates strong seasonal pest cycles, with outdoor pests peaking in summer and indoor pest pressure rising in winter. Peak pest season runs April through October.
Spring
Termite and ant swarms appear as soil warms — inspect foundations and crawl spaces.
Summer
Warm, humid summers fuel peak pest activity; maintain yard treatments and indoor barriers.
Fall
Overwintering pests invade homes in fall — seal gaps around windows, doors, and utilities.
Winter
Cold winters concentrate pests indoors; check behind appliances and in storage areas.
Common Pest Issues in Washington
Subterranean termites in older homes and structures
Rodent infestations during cold months
Seasonal ant invasions in kitchens and bathrooms

What Customers Are Saying in Washington
I’m writing this review to warn others so they don’t experience what we did. A door-to-door salesman from Insight Pest Control approached us while we were doing yard work. He claimed their service was safer for pets, people, and the environment, said many neighbors were using them, and repeatedly stated we could cancel anytime if we weren’t satisfied. That turned out to be untrue. After the first treatment, we experienced a severe ant infestation in our garage — something we had NEVER had bef

We had a carpenter ant infestation that started last week, completely out of the blue. I called Sound Pest Control on Monday, and they were able to send someone out to my house on Thursday. Born was very personable and professional, explaining every step he would take and why it was important. He injected poison into the walls of the house where the colony had set up residence, sprayed in the crawl space, and did a perimeter spray. Boy, was that effective! Yesterday we killed over 100 carpenter

We're so glad to hear that you were satisfied with our services! Our team works hard to ensure that every customer has a fantastic experience, and we're thrilled that we succeeded with you. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to serving you again.
UPDATE: Everything was all clear and they let us know to contact them if anything else showed up. Would work with them again! ORIGINAL POST (2 MONTHS PRIOR): Still in the process of working with them, so I’ll update when we’re done, but here’s the current feelings! There was a bedbug sighting in my home which I think got picked up from the train as it’s a frequent mode of transport for most people I live with. My Aging and Disabilities case manager sent a referral and said to wait for them to

Thank you, Emerson, for sharing your experience and for your confidence in our team! Glad we could help out.
Highly recommend Insulation Pro Inc.! I originally called them about mold in our bathroom, and they came out for a free inspection and traced the root cause to rodent activity in the attic. They also inspected our crawlspace and found significant rodent issues there too. They provided a detailed, itemized quote, were very responsive throughout the project, and sent before/after photos. They also flagged additional problems - like damaged air ducts and exhaust vents - that we were able to address

This team was incredible! After multiple quotes, we ended up choosing this team because of their pricing, transparency, and attention to detail. Eric and Omid did not use any pushy sales tactics or try to give us silly customer discounts. They provided honest assessments and gave rationale answers for the problems in our home. We ended up getting all new insulation in our attic and crawlspace and mold remediation as needed. While assessing the crawlspace and completing that part of the project,

I have been using the services of Paratex - American Pest Management for the past 20 years. We had our house built (next to a forest) in 1999. Therefore, our home is more prone to pests that can cause structural damage and other annoying "bugs". To prevent termite invasions, Paratex has been treating the perimeter of our house 3 times a year (quarterly schedule during warmer months) since our house was built. 100% success rate so far. In addition, we had them come out to remove a couple of horne
This company has always been great but I'm really impressed with the great communication the last few times I have scheduled my yard to be sprayed. They call to confirm exactly what I want sprayed and why. This last time I talked to a girl first and lightly mentioned that I probably didn't want this one particular bush to be sprayed because there's a lot of honey bees in that area and I didn't want to affect them negatively. I forgot to mention it the next time I talk to a gentleman over the pho
