Galena is newer construction on wooded lots, right next to Dublin. Tight construction keeps pests out of the living space but pushes them into soffits, garage gaps, and roof lines - and the tree line around almost every lot feeds mice, squirrels, and spiders year round.
Why Galena gets pressure
- Newer subdivisions with tight construction still pull fall invaders through siding lines and garage gaps
- Wooded lot borders feed mice, squirrels, and spiders right up to the house line
- Mature tree canopy supports carpenter ant colonies and summer yellow jackets
- Irrigation, drainage swales, and low spots create mosquito pockets in summer
What service looks like in Galena
Galena service starts with the siding line, garage, soffit vents, and foundation. We seal the points pests actually use, treat harborage along the lot line, and follow up so the seals hold. On wooded lots, exclusion is what makes the difference between a seasonal problem and a recurring one.
Seasonal pest calendar
- Spring: carpenter ants from mature trees, stink bugs, stinging insects, termites, and spiders
- Summer: mosquitoes in low ground and irrigation areas, yellow jackets, fleas from wildlife, spiders
- Fall: mice, squirrels, and stink bugs, boxelder bugs, and lady beetles moving indoors to escape the cold
- Winter: mice and squirrels in soffits and garages, overwintering stink bugs, roaches indoors
