Star Pest Control: Growing Northwest Treasure Valley

Quick answerStar pest control starts at just $49 for your initial treatment, then $119 per quarter for ongoing protection.

This covers most Star homes including Hidden Springs and Avimor. Acreage properties and larger lots may require customized pricing based on treatment area. If pests return between quarterly visits, we'll re-treat at no additional charge. No hidden fees.

Quick answerYes!

We specialize in Star's larger properties, including multi-acre lots, hobby farms, and equestrian properties. Star properties often have outbuildings, barns, detached garages, and extensive landscaping that need a full property-wide treatment plan. We build custom plans that handle perimeter protection, outbuilding treatment, and pasture-adjacent pest pressure.

Quick answerStar's semi-rural character means voles are a major concern, damaging lawns and landscaping extensively throughout the community.

Black widow spiders are common in garages, sheds, and outbuildings. Field mice invade as agricultural land converts to development. Yellowjackets build ground nests in yards and pastures. Properties with horses or livestock often see increased fly activity that can spread to neighboring homes.

Quick answerWe usually get out within 24 to 48 hours, and same-day service is often available for urgent problems like wasp nests, especially when you call early in the day.

We serve all Star neighborhoods, from Downtown Star to new developments near Highway 44 to rural properties, and our office is open Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Quick answerYes.

Voles are common in Star, where large manicured lawns and extensive landscaping are common. They tunnel beneath grass, killing roots and creating unsightly surface trails throughout lawns. Voles are a separate service from the pest plan, usually with separate pricing, so call (208) 297-7947 for a quote. We use targeted baiting in the runways voles are using.

Quick answerOur full Star service includes exterior treatment, extended perimeter barriers for larger lots, interior treatment on request, web and wasp nest removal, and locked bait stations for mice inside the home.

We treat for ants, spiders, wasps, mice, and seasonal invaders; voles are usually a separate charge. After each visit you get an emailed invoice, and your invoices and service history are in our online customer portal.

Quick answerWe use EPA-registered products, and your technician will tell you how long to keep kids and pets off treated areas.

For Star properties with horses, chickens, or other livestock, tell us about your animals so we can plan the treatment around pastures, coops, and barns. We offer eco-friendly options and will customize our approach based on your property's specific needs and animal residents.

Quick answerStar's growth from agricultural land means construction regularly disturbs pest habitats.

When farmland becomes subdivisions, field mice, voles, spiders, and insects seek shelter in nearby homes. New construction has gaps around utility penetrations, unsealed foundations, and fresh landscaping that hasn't established. We recommend preventive treatment for all new Star homes within the first year of occupancy.

Quick answerGreen Guard refers termites and wildlife removal (raccoons, skunks, bats, deer) to trusted specialists.

We do handle rodents (mice, rats, and voles), and we treat carpenter ants, which homeowners sometimes confuse with termites in older Star farmhouses.

Yes. Star properties along the Boise River (Star Riverwalk, Heron River, Star Road) see heavy mosquito pressure from May through September because the river runs right there and irrigation laterals feed water into the neighborhoods all summer. We treat the perimeter with our organic-based barrier products and offer an outdoor mosquito add-on on top of quarterly service for properties right on the water. Our mosquito prevention guide also covers the yard fixes that make the biggest difference.
