Pest Control in Boone and Watauga County, NC
From Boone and Blowing Rock out to Deep Gap, Vilas and Sugar Grove, Skeeter’s Pest Control helps High Country homeowners, landlords and businesses keep pests and wildlife out.
Pest Control Built for the High Country
Life at higher elevation changes the pest picture. Long, cold winters push mice, squirrels and other wildlife to find warm shelter in attics, crawlspaces and wall voids. Insects such as stink bugs and lady beetles gather on sunny walls in the fall and work their way inside to spend the winter.
Watauga County also has a lot of rental houses, student housing near Appalachian State, vacation cabins and second homes that sit empty for weeks at a time. Pests and wildlife can settle in without anyone noticing. Regular service and a good exclusion job help catch problems before they turn into damage.

Our Services in Watauga County
Common Pests in Watauga County
These are the problems we are called about most often in Watauga County. Every property is different, so we always start by finding out what you are dealing with.
Mice and Other Rodents
Cold snaps drive rodents indoors early in the High Country. We find and address the entry points.
Bats in Attics and Cabins
Bats often roost in attics, gable vents and behind siding. We handle bat exclusion so they can leave and not get back in.
Squirrels and Raccoons
Wooded lots and steep, tree-lined roofs give wildlife easy access to rooflines and vents.
Overwintering Insects
Stink bugs, lady beetles, spiders and other insects that move indoors in the fall are covered by general pest control.
Termites
Termites are still a risk in the mountains, especially where wood touches damp soil. An inspection tells you where you stand.
Seasonal Pest Guide for Watauga County
Spring
Wildlife that spent the winter inside may be raising young. Call before you seal an opening so nothing gets trapped inside.
Summer
Bats are raising their young, so we time bat exclusion work around that season. Mosquito control is available for yards and outdoor living areas.
Fall
The busiest time for rodents and overwintering insects. Sealing gaps before the first hard freeze makes a big difference.
Winter
Check cabins and rentals between guests. Droppings, chewed insulation or scratching sounds mean it is time for an inspection.
