Boxelder Bug Control in Dayton, OH
Every fall, boxelder bugs mass on the warm south and west walls of Miami Valley homes and work their way into soffits, attics and window frames to overwinter. Once they are inside the wall, the only good option is next year's exterior timing.
Signs you have boxelder bugs
- Clusters of black-and-red bugs on sunny siding when the weather cools and the sun heats up the outside of the house
- Bugs at window frames and light fixtures on warm winter days
- Concentrations near boxelder, maple or ash trees

Boxelder Bugs questions Dayton homeowners ask
- How fast can you get out for boxelder bugs?
- Most Miami Valley calls are scheduled within the same week, and stinging-insect emergencies are often handled same or next day. Call the office to schedule — a licensed technician performs the treatment.
- Is the treatment safe around children and pets?
- Yes. We use EPA-registered products applied by a licensed applicator under ODA Company License #12706, placed where pests travel rather than where your family does. We will tell you exactly how long to stay off treated surfaces.
- Do I have to sign a contract?
- No. One-time service, quarterly and monthly programs are all available, and nothing auto-locks you in. Quarterly and monthly plans are warranted between services for all general pests and mice, all year — boxelder bug treatments are scheduled services and are not included in that between-service warranty.
