Why Northwest Boise Properties Face Unique Pest Challenges
Northwest Boise encompasses the substantial residential area north of State Street and west of the foothills, featuring diverse neighborhoods built from the 1970s through today. This large swath of Boise combines established subdivision challenges with ongoing new construction pest pressure. The Hewlett-Packard campus and State Street commercial corridor support pest populations that spread into residential areas. Irrigation canals running through Northwest Boise maintain moisture conditions favorable to insects even during dry summers. Older neighborhoods have mature landscaping with established pest populations, while newer construction disturbs soil and displaces ant colonies. The area's proximity to foothills along its northern edge brings wildlife-adjacent pest pressures to properties bordering open space.
- Mix of 1970s-2000s construction creates varied pest vulnerabilities
- Irrigation infrastructure maintains moisture supporting insects year-round
- State Street commercial corridor sustains rodent and ant populations
- Northern edge borders foothills with wildlife-interface pest pressure

Common Pests in Northwest
Our local experts know how to identify and eliminate these pests quickly
Pavement Ants
Extremely common throughout Northwest Boise, nesting under driveways, walkways, and patios. New construction continues to disturb colonies, pushing them toward established homes seeking new territory.

Ground-dwelling spiders that thrive in Northwest Boise's irrigated landscaping. They build funnel webs in gardens and commonly enter homes through garages, especially during fall mating season.
House Mice
Northwest Boise's commercial areas and diverse construction quality create opportunities for mice. They're particularly common near State Street and in older homes with multiple entry points.
Yellow Jackets
Ground-nesting yellow jackets are common in Northwest Boise's many yards and open spaces. Colonies form in landscaping, under porches, and in retaining walls throughout the area.

Whether you're a homeowner near Veterans Park or a restaurant on State Street, we have pest control solutions that fit your needs and schedule.
Why do newer Northwest Boise homes seem to have more ants than older ones?
New construction disturbs ant colonies that have lived in the soil for years or even decades. Rather than dying off, these displaced colonies relocate—often ending up under your new driveway, patio, or foundation. The loose, disturbed soil around new construction also makes tunneling easier for ants establishing new colonies. Meanwhile, the stress of construction may actually trigger colony reproduction, splitting one colony into multiple satellite colonies. This 'new construction ant boom' typically lasts 2-5 years as populations stabilize. Our quarterly service provides continuous protection during this adjustment period.
