Vail's extreme winter temperatures and abundant snowfall drive pests like mice, other rodents, and overwintering insects directly into warm structures. Even mild summer conditions can invite nuisance pests into properties seeking resources.
Cockroaches: **German cockroaches** frequently infiltrate kitchens and bathrooms in Vail's commercial properties and residences, seeking consistent warmth and food sources year-round.
Termites: Vail faces a moderate risk from **subterranean termites**. These pests target timber foundations and any moist wood in basements, especially where snowmelt contributes to ongoing moisture issues around structures.
