Pest Control for Milwaukee & Eastern Wisconsin

Our part of the world sees temps below zero ranging up to triple digits in the hottest days of summer. Pest control is often dependent on the seasons when critters are nesting or on the move. We advise homeowners to schedule quarterly pest control visits to keep pests away as the seasons transition.

As one seasonal example, in the Spring we recommend treating your yard for ticks, which can spread Lyme’s Disease. At this time of year, ticks are in the nymph stage and are the size of poppy seeds, which is their small, immature form. They’re especially tough to see and can therefore be more likely to go unnoticed and spread the disease.  Our Outdoor service package includes comprehensive residential tick control among other services, allowing Hawx customers to reclaim their outdoor space.

Milwaukee and eastern Wisconsin are naturally predisposed to certain pest problems due to our mix of urban, suburban, and rural landscapes.

Fields and forests are ideal for ticks and certain ant species, while urban settings with, yes, waste and shelter draw rodents and cockroaches. And suburban settings often provide a mix of lush yards, steadily-available food in homes, and yard items like rotting logs or bird baths where pests can lay eggs and thrive.

All of these elements in Milwaukee and eastern Wisconsin necessitate seasonal pest control and proactive measures to prevent infestations.
