HOW TO GET RID OF BOXELDER BUGS

You might not even notice these insects until you see huge numbers of them piled on a tree or the side of a house in the later summer days. Boxelder bugs like to stay warm so will try and land somewhere that still gets sunshine as the days get shorter. When the temperatures start to drop, they will push their way into the building or home through any gap they can find. They lie dormant during the winter, waiting until spring to reappear in your home, seemingly from nowhere. These annoying pests are not dangerous but nobody wants a Boxelder bug infestation in their home. Here are some steps you can take to treat Boxelder bugs from your Utah home or yard:

  • Treat with pesticides at the correct time of year. You don’t want to miss the window when Boxelder bug pest control will be at its most effective. A professional pest control company like H2 Pest Control will be able to provide Boxelder bug treatment and control services at the best time of year.
  • Check the exterior of your property for gaps or cracks, especially around doorways and windows. Seal these gaps before August when the Boxelder bug infestation in Utah will be at its highest.
  • Consider removing box elder, ash or maple trees from your yard. The bugs feast on these trees but also have a large flying distance so can really land anywhere within a 2 mile radius of a tree they’ve been feeding on.
  • Don’t squash them. Although they’re not dangerous, Boxelder bugs are related to stink bugs so squashing them will release a bad odor.

"I have only had H2 Pest Control service twice so far, but during these experiences have found the company owners/staff to be very personable, responsive and accommodating. I asked them to spray for box elder bugs the first time they came, and the bugs were gone the next day. I have also appreciated their follow-through via email and text informing me of upcoming appointments and specific charges."
