Erie's rapid growth and position on the Front Range mean new construction often disturbs existing pest habitats, driving them indoors. The area's climate, with cold winters and warm summers, creates a consistent need for professional pest management.
Cockroaches: Erie properties contend with German and Oriental cockroaches. German roaches rapidly infest kitchens and bathrooms, seeking moisture and food crumbs. Oriental cockroaches prefer damp, cool areas like basements and crawl spaces, often entering through drains or foundation cracks.
Termites: Erie falls within a moderate risk zone for subterranean termites. These destructive pests thrive unseen in the soil, silently eroding wooden structures. They forage deeply to find moisture, making early detection and professional treatment crucial to prevent significant structural damage.
