Pest Control Charlotte, NC

We provide effective pest control services to homeowners all across Charlotte, including neighborhoods like Ballantyne, Dilworth, NoDa, South End, Plaza Midwood, Myers Park, University City, and more. 

Yes, our treatments are always kid-friendly and pet-friendly, and we will prioritize your family’s well-being throughout the pest control process. Our local Field Experts will explain what to expect and provide guidance on how long to stay away from treated areas. Typically, we recommend staying away from treated indoor areas for around 1 – 3 hours (depending on airflow), and around 30 minutes for outdoor areas (depending on the weather). For homeowners with bird cages, terrariums, and aquariums, we may suggest additional precautions. 

Charlotte’s warm, humid climate and long growing season create the perfect environment for a wide range of pests, including ants, cockroaches, rodents, termites, mosquitoes, and spiders.  

Ants often invade kitchens and bathrooms in search of food and water, while cockroaches and rodents are drawn to dark, damp spaces like basements and crawl spaces. Mosquitoes thrive outdoors, especially near standing water, and termites are a year-round concern due to the region’s mild winters and moisture-rich soil.  

As temperatures drop in the fall and winter, many of these pests head indoors for warmth and shelter. Because of the high pest pressure in the area, Charlotte homeowners can benefit from ongoing pest control designed to proactively target seasonal pests and prevent infestations before they take hold. 

You can try fighting pests with store-bought products, but if you want strong and lasting pest control, you’re better off going with a pro. Store-bought solutions might kill the pests you can see, but do little about the many more lurking behind the scenes. 

At Moxie, we train our Field Experts daily to apply professional-grade treatments carefully and precisely, targeting pests where they live and breed. Our effective treatments and knowledge of pest behavior help us reduce pest activity more reliably than DIY products and for longer periods of time. 

Yes, thanks to our area’s humid climate, mosquito control is a key service we provide to our fellow Charlotte homeowners. 

Our mosquito control services include monthly fogging and the placement of In2Care Stations, which are discrete devices that disrupt mosquito breeding cycles by targeting larvae before they grow up into biting adults. 

We will service your In2Care Stations every 21 – 30 days for optimum results. You deserve to feel at home in your yard, and our Field Experts will apply proven treatments to keep mosquitoes in check throughout the year. 

German cockroaches are a major nuisance in North Carolina, and one of the hundreds of pest species we target. Unlike some cockroach species, German cockroaches love the indoors, and are drawn to kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas with plentiful food and water sources. 

To fight them, you have to know how they behave and possess the tools and techniques that can help eliminate them and stop them from coming back. Our Field Experts use proven methods to fight German cockroaches and a host of other uninvited invaders you may find in your home throughout the year. 

The combination of hot, moist summers and mild winters in central North Carolina provides the right conditions for many pests to breed and remain active for most of the year. High humidity supports mosquito and termite activity, especially in shaded or wooded areas with standing water or damp soil. Ants and cockroaches thrive in warm, moist environments and are frequently drawn indoors in search of food and shelter. Even during winter, many pests—especially rodents, spiders, and silverfish—stay active by moving inside homes where temperatures remain steady. 

Our team understands how the local conditions in Charlotte fuel pest behavior, which helps us deliver strategic, long-term solutions. 

Charlotte’s seasonal changes have a big impact on local pest activity, with each part of the year bringing its own challenges. In spring, warming temperatures and increased rainfall signal the return of ants and termites. Ants begin foraging for food and establishing new colonies, while termites swarm to form new nests, making early-season treatments critical for prevention.  

As summer sets in, heat and humidity drive a surge in mosquito populations, especially near standing water and dense vegetation. You may also see more activity from ticks, stinging insects, and roaches during this time. 

In fall, pests like spiders, centipedes, and rodents start seeking shelter indoors as temperatures cool. By winter, rodent activity often increases as mice and rats move inside to escape the cold and search for food, while pests like cockroaches and silverfish remain active in warm, humid areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. 

These seasonal shifts trigger breeding, migration, and nesting behaviors that can quickly lead to infestations if left unchecked. That’s why our Field Experts are trained to anticipate local pest patterns and adjust their treatment strategies throughout the year to deliver targeted, proactive solutions. 

Increased activity after the first treatment is not a cause for alarm. In fact, it’s evidence that the treatment is working. This initial treatment pushes pests from their comfortable hiding places and into open areas where they are more visible.  

You’ll usually see a noticeable drop in pest activity within a few days. If pests continue to be a problem, customers on a year-round plan can count on free warranty reservice between scheduled visits.
