What's Bugging You?
Pick your pest to see how we identify it, treat it, and keep it from coming back.
Bed Bugs
Bite at night, hide in mattress seams, and spread fast between rooms and units.
Year-round, peaks after summer travel
Rodents (Mice & Rats)
Chew wiring, contaminate food, and squeeze through gaps the size of a dime.
October–February, as temperatures drop
Cockroaches
Trigger asthma and allergies, contaminate kitchens, and multiply behind appliances.
Year-round indoors, peaks in summer
Termites
Silently eat structural wood — damage often appears only after years of feeding.
Swarms in spring; active year-round underground
Bees, Wasps & Hornets
Aggressive near nests in late summer — stings are dangerous for allergic family members.
Nests peak August–October
Carpenter Ants
Excavate damp wood to nest — a warning sign of moisture problems in your home.
Swarm in spring; forage May–September
Ants
Trails across counters and pet bowls — small ants, persistent colonies.
April–September
Wildlife & Animal Removal
Squirrels, raccoons, bats, and skunks in attics, chimneys, and crawl spaces.
Peak intrusions October–March
Mosquitoes
Ruin evenings outdoors and can carry West Nile virus in Pennsylvania.
May–September, peak after rain
Ticks
Pennsylvania leads the nation in Lyme disease cases — yard treatment matters.
April–November; nymphs peak May–July
Spiders
Mostly harmless, but webs everywhere — and a sign of other insect activity.
Most visible September–November
Fleas
Bite ankles, torment pets, and hide as eggs deep in carpets and floor cracks.
June–October, peak in humid late summer
Stink Bugs
Swarm sunny walls in fall and overwinter by the hundreds in attics and walls.
Invade homes September–October
Earwigs
Pincher-tailed moisture lovers that invade basements, bathrooms, and mulch beds.
June–September, after wet spells

Pest Control in NEPA, Season by Season
Northeastern Pennsylvania's four true seasons mean pest pressure never really stops — it just changes shape. Spring wakes up carpenter ants in Scranton's older frame homes and sends termite swarmers into the air after warm rains across the Wyoming and Lackawanna valleys. Summer brings mosquitoes along the river corridors, ticks in every wooded lot from Clarks Summit to the Pocono foothills, and wasp nests that grow more aggressive through August.
Fall is the migration season: stink bugs mass on sun-warmed walls in September and October, mice and rats push into basements and attics as nights turn cold, and squirrels look for attic den sites. Winter is quieter outside but busier inside — rodent infestations peak between October and February, and bed bug calls spike after holiday travel and college breaks.
That cycle shapes how we work. NEPA Pest Control is a local, licensed Pennsylvania operator — not a national call center — and our technicians treat homes in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Dunmore, Kingston, and the surrounding boroughs every day. We know the region's housing stock: fieldstone foundations with easy rodent entry points, damp basements that attract carpenter ants, and multi-unit buildings where roaches and bed bugs travel between apartments.
Every service starts with a real inspection and a firm written quote. We offer eco-friendly treatment options, same-day service for urgent problems, and a 2-year warranty on bed bug work — one of the strongest guarantees in the region. Whether it's a single wasp nest or year-round protection for your home, call us or request a free quote and we'll take it from there.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does pest control cost in the Scranton area?
It depends on the pest and the size of the problem. A one-time treatment for common pests typically costs less than a specialized service like bed bug heat treatment or termite protection. We inspect first and give you a firm written quote — no surprises.
Do you offer same-day service?
Yes. Calls before noon in Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and nearby towns are usually served the same day, with evening availability for stinging-insect emergencies.
Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
We prioritize low-impact, eco-friendly products and targeted application methods. We explain any precautions before we start — in most cases treated areas are ready for normal use shortly after we finish.
What does the 2-year bed bug warranty cover?
If bed bug activity is confirmed in the treated areas within two years of treatment, we come back and re-treat at no charge. The simple preparation conditions are explained in writing before treatment.
Do I need a recurring plan or just a one-time visit?
Many problems — a wasp nest, a flea treatment — are one-and-done. For year-round protection against ants, spiders, rodents, and seasonal invaders, our quarterly plan includes free re-service between visits.
Which areas do you serve?
All of Northeastern Pennsylvania: Lackawanna, Luzerne, Wayne, Monroe, Wyoming, Susquehanna, and Pike counties — from Scranton and Wilkes-Barre to Honesdale, Mount Pocono, and Tunkhannock.
