Residential Pest Control Services in Calgary
Why Pest Issues Increase in Calgary
- Cold temperatures drive mice and rodents indoors
- Small gaps around garages and foundations allow entry
- Early intervention helps prevent ongoing infestations
When it comes to residential pest control in Calgary, local knowledge matters. Our climate, with its long winters and warm, dry summers, creates unique challenges for homeowners. From sudden spring infestations to fall rodent invasions, Calgary’s seasonal cycles bring a variety of pest problems that require year-round attention.
Pest Detective Calgary offers comprehensive home pest control services designed to identify, eliminate, and prevent pests before they cause damage or stress. Whether you’re dealing with a one-time issue or need ongoing protection, our certified Calgary pest exterminators deliver safe, effective, and customized solutions for every home.
Common Household Pests in Calgary
Our team handles all of the most common residential pests in the Calgary area. Every treatment is tailored to the species, the season and your property.
🐭 Mice
Rodents are one of Calgary's top pest issues, especially in late fall and winter when temperatures drop and they seek warmth indoors. We locate entry points and use safe, effective trapping and exclusion methods to keep your home rodent free. Our 3 visit mice control program starts at $425 and includes a free inspection, targeted treatment and follow up monitoring.
MICE CONTROL🐜 Ants
In the spring and summer, ants are the most common household nuisance, invading kitchens, patios and basements. We treat all major species found in Calgary including pavement ants and carpenter ants with precision targeted applications. Carpenter ants in particular can cause structural damage if left untreated so early intervention is key.
ANT CONTROL🐝 Wasps & Hornets
Peak activity occurs in mid summer to early fall. Our wasp and hornet removal specialists eliminate nests around eaves, decks, sheds and attics, keeping your outdoor spaces safe. Calgary's dry summers create ideal nesting conditions so we recommend removal as soon as a nest is spotted before colonies grow aggressive.
WASP REMOVAL🛏️ Bed Bugs
These pests are a year round issue in Calgary due to high mobility between apartments, hotels and homes. We offer discreet, proven treatments to eradicate infestations quickly and thoroughly. Learn more about our bed bug exterminator Calgary services and pricing.
BED BUGS🪳 Cockroaches
Common in multi unit homes and older buildings, roaches can thrive indoors year round. Our technicians identify species and use advanced treatments that eliminate them at the source. Oriental and German cockroaches are the most frequent species we treat in Calgary and both require targeted baiting to fully eliminate.
COCKROACH CONTROL🐦 Birds
Pigeons and sparrows often nest on Calgary rooftops, balconies and vents, creating mess and health concerns. We provide humane deterrents and cleanup services to prevent re nesting. Droppings can also attract secondary pests like beetles and mites so prompt removal protects your property on multiple levels.
BIRD CONTROL🪲 Termites & Beetles
Though less common than in warmer climates, structural pests can still be found in southern Alberta. Early detection and preventive inspections are key to protecting wooden structures and foundations. We offer termite inspections for real estate transactions and homeowners looking for peace of mind.
TERMITE INSPECTIONYear Round Pest Control Calgary: PD Shield 365

Mice & Rodent Control in Calgary
Calgary’s cold winters drive mice indoors from October through March, making rodent control one of the most common service calls we receive. Homes in older neighborhoods like Bridgeland, Renfrew, and Bowness are especially vulnerable due to aging foundations and gaps around utility lines.
Our Calgary mice control program includes three visits starting at $425. We inspect your home to identify entry points, set up targeted trapping, and return to monitor activity until the problem is resolved. Unlike one-time treatments that leave mice coming back, our approach addresses the root cause.
Signs you need professional mice control:
- Droppings in kitchen cabinets, pantries, or along walls
- Scratching sounds in walls or ceilings at night
- Gnaw marks on food packaging or wires
- Musty odor in enclosed spaces
We also offer rodent proofing to seal gaps around foundations, garage doors, vents, and utility entry points. Proofing prevents future infestations and protects your home long term.

How Our Calgary Mice Control Program Works
Our proven 3 step mice control program is built for Calgary homes where long winters, aging foundations and attached garages make mice one of the most persistent household pests. Unlike one time treatments that leave mice coming back, our program addresses the full lifecycle of an infestation from first signs to total control. Once the infestation is eliminated we also offer a monthly maintenance program to keep your home protected year round so mice don't become a problem again.
STEP 1
Detect
Every program begins with a free in home inspection by a certified Pest Detective technician. We check your basement, attic, garage, kitchen, crawl spaces and utility entry points for droppings, gnaw marks, grease trails and nesting material. We map every gap and opening mice are using to get inside and provide a report with a clear treatment plan before any work begins.
STEP 2
Treat
Based on your inspection results we deploy strategic trapping stations in active zones throughout your home. We target high traffic mouse pathways identified during inspection to ensure fast knockdown of the existing population. This visit is typically scheduled within days of your inspection.
STEP 3
Prevent
On our final visit we return to clear traps, confirm the infestation is resolved and assess all entry points around your home. We identify gaps around foundations, garage doors, vents, pipes and utility lines where mice are getting in and provide a full exclusion quote if sealing is needed. To keep your home protected after treatment we recommend our monthly maintenance program which includes ongoing monitoring and prevention.

Calgary Exterminator Reviews
Top Rated Pest Control in Calgary
Michael Ribalko – the great Pest Detective! – was very accommodating, arriving the same day only hours after initial contact. He did a thorough job inspecting the entire house for any signs of rodents – basement, storage, bathrooms, even behind appliances – and of course the attic. He is personable, friendly and very professional! Pricing was reasonable at $155 + GST and a report/receipt followed the inspection within minutes. I also appreciated his wearing booties in the house!
Happy to report NO RODENTS FOUND only wood chips from the recent roof replacement. Now let’s close the deal and lift the conditions!
