Professional Pest Control Services in Bangor, ME

Ants marching across the patio, spiders on the deck rail, earwigs in the mudroom, stink bugs sneaking in every fall. Our outdoor pest control treats the perimeter of your home so the bugs stay outside where they belong.

Common outdoor pests can be more than an annoyance — some can bite, sting or trigger allergic reactions in people and pets. TruGreen Pest Control is designed to eliminate active pests, control new generations and stop the ones migrating onto your property from neighboring yards and woods.

Pests We Help Control

• Ants — including the carpenter ants common in wooded Maine lots
• Spiders
• Earwigs
• Stink bugs — especially as they look for winter shelter in fall
• Centipedes
• Wasps
• Fleas
• Ticks — see our dedicated tick control service

How Perimeter Pest Control Works

1. Inspection. We look for entry points, nesting areas and conditions that attract pests — mulch against the foundation, wood piles, moisture.
2. Perimeter treatment. We treat a band around your foundation, entry points and key outdoor areas to create a barrier.
3. Seasonal follow-up. Repeat visits keep controlling new generations as the seasons change.
4. Free re-treats. If pests come back between visits, we return at no additional cost.

Fall Is Prime Time in Maine

As temperatures drop in September and October, stink bugs, spiders and other pests start looking for a warm place to spend the winter — and your house is the obvious choice. A fall perimeter treatment helps stop them before they get inside.
