Ant Control in Spokane
Local, Veteran- & Woman-Owned Ant Control for Spokane Homes & Businesses
Ants are the most common pest complaint we handle in Spokane, and the region’s climate is a big reason why. Heavy snowmelt, wet springs, and hot dry summers push ant colonies indoors at different points throughout the year, and they turn up in kitchens, bathrooms, along foundation lines, and inside wall voids. Backwoods Pest Control LLC is a locally owned, veteran- and woman-owned company operated by a husband-and-wife team who live in the area we serve. We bring firsthand knowledge of Spokane’s pest conditions to every job.
Scout ants that find a food or moisture source signal the rest of the colony to follow, which is why a handful of ants near the sink can become a full infestation quickly. Effective ant control targets the colony, not just the foragers you can see. Surface-only treatments provide temporary relief at best.
If ants are active on your property, call (509) 265-6023 or schedule online. We offer free inspections and same-day service when the calendar allows.
How Our Ant Control Process Works
Every service starts with a free inspection. We examine interior and exterior areas, including entry points, nesting sites, and moisture-prone conditions, before recommending any treatment. That inspection drives the plan. We don’t apply a standard formula to every property.
Treatment & Prevention
Treatment is built around the species present, the structure, and the people and pets who live or work there. Eco-conscious and organic options are available, and pet-friendly methods can be incorporated when needed. After the initial treatment, perimeter barrier applications can reduce the likelihood of re-entry between visits. Exclusion work, including sealing gaps, addressing moisture issues, and removing conditions that attract ants, supports long-term prevention alongside the treatment itself.
Customers on an ongoing service plan are backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee for non-flying pests: if ant activity returns under an active plan, we come back at no additional charge. Same-day scheduling is available when our calendar allows, and we offer multiple payment options and flexible scheduling for convenience.
Why Spokane Residents Choose Backwoods Pest Control LLC
We’re not a national chain dispatching technicians from outside the region. We live here. That firsthand knowledge of Spokane’s seasonal pest pressure shapes how we approach every job, from which products we reach for in early spring to how we treat properties near water or wooded lots. As a veteran- and woman-owned business, integrity and accountability aren’t talking points. They’re how we operate.
We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, maintain active membership in both the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) and the Washington State Pest Management Association (WSPMA), and carry full licensing and insurance. Our customers frequently report seeing results quickly, including cases where a previous pest control company hadn’t been able to resolve the problem. That track record shows in our near-100 Google reviews and 5-star average. Military members and first responders can request a 10% discount on service upon request.

How much does a rodent treatment service from Backwoods Pest Control cost?After inspecting your property, we provide a written quote that identifies the service areas, equipment, planned visits, and any separately priced work. An iQ-equipped program may cost more than a basic bait-station service because it adds activity data and technician review. We will explain what that added work is meant to accomplish. The final price depends on the property and the agreed scope; we do not claim to be the lowest-priced option.
-
How often will you treat my Spokane home or business for rodents?Visit timing follows rodent activity and your written agreement. For Sentinel, we begin with equipment setup and an included follow-up approximately 30 days later. Active rodent control may require more frequent visits; ongoing maintenance follows the agreed schedule. Monthly program payments do not mean a technician visits every month. We explain whether a requested extra visit is included or separately quoted before scheduling it.
-
Why should I trust Backwoods Pest Control to treat my Spokane property for rodents?We inspect the property, explain the signs we find, and give you a written plan for equipment, service areas, follow-up, and price. In an iQ-equipped program, our technician reviews timestamped device activity at visits to guide adjustments; the system does not send live alerts. We explain placement and precautions around children and pets, and we stand behind the work described in your agreement. Rodent control usually takes ongoing attention, so we will not promise instant or permanent elimination.

We have struggled with earwigs in our home and snakes in our yard, even coming into our garage. We tried a door-to-door pest control company for over a year, but they weren’t able to resolve the issue, even with retreatments. My husband called Backwoods Pest Control and Brian came out to do a consult for us and gave us some snake scram granules the same day, knowing we were having a major issue. He was very knowledgeable and outlined a comprehensive plan to help us. We haven’t seen a snake since (we had been seeing multiple snakes each day up to that point). We signed up for the service and less than a week later, Krista came out. She was so friendly and kind and listened to our concerns, making adjustments based on the information we gave her about where we’ve been seeing bugs, etc. She let us know what to expect and was also able to tell us why our past treatments for earwigs hadn’t worked. We already saw dead bugs in treated areas before she even finished treating the rest of the house. We highly recommend Backwoods Pest Control!- Ryan & Katie Petrik
