# Seattle Pest Control > Pest control for homes and businesses in Seattle and the wider King, Snohomish and Kitsap county area, with phones answered 24/7 and the price confirmed before any treatment begins. Puget Sound's long wet season keeps wood, crawl spaces and shaded yards damp, which draws ants into older homes. Yellowjackets peak from late summer into autumn, and rats and mice seek shelter as the rains return. Spring ant swarms, wasp nests, crawl space rodent exclusion, cockroaches and bed bugs in apartments, and programs for businesses in Seattle, Bellevue, Renton and Bremerton are all handled by licensed local technicians. ## Key facts - Business: Seattle Pest Control - What: Residential and commercial pest control - Phone: (855) 974-4733 (+18559744733) - Email: info@seattlepestcontrol.shop - Website: https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/ - Based in: Seattle, WA (service-area business; we travel to customers) - Service area: Seattle and King County, Washington, including Seattle, Medina, Mercer Island, Bellevue, Kirkland, Kenmore, Renton, Redmond, Mountlake Terrace, Sammamish, Bothell, Edmonds, Woodinville, Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Burien, SeaTac, Tukwila, Des Moines, Lynnwood - Hours: Phones answered 24/7 - Languages: English - Address: Seattle, WA 98101 - Pricing: The technician confirms the price before any treatment begins - Seasons: The wet season from October to March keeps wood and crawl spaces damp; yellowjackets peak in late summer; carpenter ants swarm in spring - Pests treated: Carpenter and moisture ants, rats and mice, yellowjackets and wasps, hornets, cockroaches, bed bugs, spiders, squirrels, raccoons, mosquitoes and commercial pest programs - Who you talk to: A call line that connects you with an independent local pest-control company ## Services - [General Pest Control](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/services/general-pest-control/): One visit to name the pest and find the way in, planned around Puget Sound's wet season and its spring ant swarms. - [Carpenter Ant Control](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/services/carpenter-ant-control/): Carpenter ants excavate damp or decayed wood.

This guide shows no dollar amounts; the price is confirmed on site before any treatment starts. - [Carpenter Ants and Moisture Ants in Seattle Homes: How to Tell Them Apart](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/carpenter-ants-vs-moisture-ants-seattle/): Carpenter ants are large and dark and excavate wood to nest; moisture ants are small, light yellowish-brown and nest in damp rotting wood or soil. WSU PestSense describes both, and in a wet region such as Puget Sound the common thread is moisture. Fixing leaks and ventilation matters as much as treating the colony. - [Are Termites a Real Problem in Seattle? An Honest Look at Western Washington](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/termites-in-western-washington/): Termites exist in western Washington but are generally considered less common than in warmer states, and no local count is available. WSU describes two native types: dampwood termites in wet or rotting wood, and subterranean termites in soil. Damp wood, carpenter ants and decay are the more likely causes of wood trouble in a Seattle house. - [Rats in Seattle: Norway Rats, Roof Rats and What to Do About Them](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/rats-in-seattle-what-to-do/): Two species cause most rat complaints in Washington: the Norway rat, which burrows low, and the roof rat, which climbs. Public health guidance puts removing food and shelter first, and says poisons are not recommended inside buildings. Public Health - Seattle & King County takes rodent complaints at no fee. - [Yellowjackets and Wasps in the Seattle Area: Why Late Summer Is the Risky Window](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/yellowjackets-seattle-late-summer/): Yellowjacket colonies start from one spring queen and peak near the end of summer; WSU says August to September is when they are most troublesome, and German yellowjacket colonies are largest from October to early November. Leave nests near people to a professional, do not swat, and treat severe allergic reactions as emergencies. - [Bed Bugs in a Seattle Apartment: Who Pays for Treatment?](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/bed-bugs-seattle-apartments-who-pays/): Under RCW 59.18.060(4), Washington landlords must reasonably control pest infestations not caused by the tenant, though not in single-family residences. RCW 59.18.130(2) can make a tenant pay when the tenant caused the problem. Proof of cause is hard. Give written notice early. This is information, not legal advice. - [How to Check a Pest Control Company in Washington](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/how-to-check-a-pest-company-washington/): In Washington, applying pesticides commercially and performing structural pest inspections require licences from the State Department of Agriculture. Ask the company for its licence number, confirm it with the state, check that an inspection report carries an inspection control number, and use the Labor & Industries page for any repair work that counts as construction. - [Seattle Pest Calendar: What to Watch Each Month](https://seattlepestcontrol.shop/guides/seattle-pest-calendar/): Around Seattle, carpenter ants swarm from April to early June, yellowjackets are most troublesome in August and September, dampwood termites swarm in late summer or fall after rain, and the wet season from roughly October to March brings damp-wood and rodent concerns.
