Eastside Exterminators

Each city has its own unique set of pests and problems, and Issaquah is no exception. While fall is not the most dangerous time for pests (because of the impending winter cold), Issaquah pest control is still needed for some of these autumn irritators.

-Grubworms: Most active in spring and fall, grubworms are particularly troublesome for places where the freeze doesn’t set in until December. They actually survive through the winter, so be aware that grubworms need to be addressed in every season.

-Fall Armyworms: Mostly interested in eating leaves, these worms are most active from September until the first frost. They feed at night, so their presence usually isn’t known until it’s too late.

-Sod Webworms: Another yearlong pest, sod webworms are a headache mainly because they are so small, so most people don’t spot them until damage has been done. Then, to the surprise of the homeowner, they emerge as moths in the summer. Unfortunately, most means to kill sod webworms also kill other non-pests such as butterflies. The best way to defend against this pest is by keeping your lawn clear of leaves, mulch, or grass clippings.
