Broken Arrow sits in Tulsa and Wagoner counties along the Arkansas River, with the Verdigris River running through parts of the city. Waterways, creeks and low drainage areas keep the ground moist, which is exactly what termites, ants and other moisture-seeking pests look for. Add long, humid summers and mild winters, and pest activity rarely takes a full break.
The city's growth adds to it. Older homes around the original town center and the Rose District often have mature trees, aging foundations and wood framing that draw termites. Newer subdivisions near Aspen Creek and Forest Ridge have their own problems, like mice finding gaps in freshly built homes, while the restaurants and shops along Kenosha Street and Elm Place draw roaches and ants. Whether your home is decades old or brand new, pests are a year-round concern in Broken Arrow.
Overwintering pests wake up looking for food. Ants are usually the first pests homeowners spot, and termite swarmers appear as colonies try to expand. Spring is a smart time for a termite inspection.
Mosquitoes, roaches, spiders and ants are all on the move. Time outside, standing water from summer storms and open doors and windows make it easier for them to get in.
Rodents and spiders look for warm shelter in garages, attics and sheds, and many homeowners notice more spiders indoors. Fall is the time to seal entry points before mice settle in.
Activity slows but doesn't stop. Mice that moved in during the fall stay active, and termite colonies keep working underground whatever the temperature above ground.
For the full month-by-month picture, see our Oklahoma pest calendar.
Sprays, baits and traps from the hardware store are cheap and easy to find, but most only reach the pests you can see. They rarely get to the nest, the colony or the hidden entry points behind the problem, so ants, spiders and roaches often come back within weeks.
A technician identifies the species, finds where it's nesting or getting in, and treats the cause. Correct identification matters most with ants: carpenter ants tunnel through wood and can cause damage much like termites, while odorous house ants form sprawling colonies with several ways into a house, and a treatment built for one does little for the other.
There's a cost side, too. Termite damage isn't covered by most standard homeowners insurance policies, and rodents chewing wiring can create a fire hazard. Compare the options in DIY vs. professional pest control.
Restaurants, shops, offices and warehouses along Elm Place, Kenosha Street and Aspen Avenue face their own pest problems, and one infestation can hurt a business's reputation and health inspection results. Restaurants have to manage roaches, rodents and flies while staying within health codes, offices and stores see seasonal ants and spiders, and warehouses draw rodents to stored materials.
Our technicians build the schedule around the type of business and work around business hours whenever possible. Builders can also ask about termite pre-treatment for new construction. See commercial pest control.
We also serve Tulsa, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso and the rest of our service areas.
Termite damage often shows up as hollow-sounding wood, mud tubes along the foundation, or discarded wings near windows and doors after a swarm. Carpenter ants can leave similar damage. An inspection is the most reliable way to know for sure; see our ants vs. termites guide.
As temperatures drop, mice and rats look for warm places to spend the winter. A mouse can squeeze through a gap the size of a dime, so openings under garage doors, around dryer vents and utility lines, and in foundation cracks are all it takes. Sealing those openings is what keeps them out; see rodent control.
Mosquitoes breed in standing water, and Broken Arrow's ponds, drainage areas and rain give them plenty of places to do it. Even a clogged gutter or a forgotten kiddie pool can become a breeding site, so dumping standing water helps between treatments. See mosquito control.
Don't handle it, and keep children and pets away from the area. Venomous spiders are more likely to turn up where a population is already established, so call us to treat the spider and the area around it. If you think you've been bitten, call your doctor or Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222.
Yes. Moles and gophers won't make anyone sick, but raised tunnels and dirt mounds can tear up a well-kept lawn and disturb plant roots. See mole and gopher removal.
