Denver sits at over 5,000 feet, and that elevation, combined with a semi-arid climate and four distinct seasons, keeps pest activity shifting throughout the year. Add in the mix of century-old brick homes in neighborhoods like Capitol Hill and Park Hill alongside dense downtown apartments, and you've got two very different sets of pest problems in the same city. Sharp Pest Solutions has spent nearly a decade working across Denver's older foundations and newer builds alike, so whether your home was built in 1920 or 2020, we know what to look for.
Spring – Ants come out in force looking to rebuild their colonies, and you'll start seeing more spiders as they hunt the insects that are waking up too.
Summer – Denver's busiest pest season. Wasps and yellow jackets build nests under eaves, deck railings, and playground equipment, growing more aggressive as summer goes on. Mosquitoes show up near irrigated lawns and any standing water.
Fall – Wasp aggression peaks in late summer into early fall, right as rodents and spiders start looking for a way indoors before the cold sets in. This is also when boxelder bugs and stink bugs gather on sunny exterior walls before slipping inside.
Winter – Mice and rats move into attics, garages, and wall voids seeking warmth, and older homes with more foundation gaps tend to see this first.
From historic Capitol Hill bungalows to newer builds further out, we treat Denver homes the way they actually need to be treated. Call (720) 585-6846 for a fast quote and a plan built around your home, not a one-size-fits-all package.
