CritterGetters provides general pest control in Durham, NC. Same technician every visit. Elimination guaranteed or we re-treat at no charge.

CritterGetters provides general pest control in Durham, NC. Durham has a higher proportion of pre-1960 housing stock than any other Triangle city — the Watts-Hillandale, Old West Durham, and Trinity Park neighborhoods are full of wood-frame homes from the 1920s through 1950s that were not built with modern pest prevention standards. Ellerbe Creek and its tributaries create persistent mosquito habitat in the northern half of the city.

We’ve served Durham since CritterGetters was founded in Raleigh in 2009. Every client in Durham gets one assigned NCDA&CS-licensed technician — the same person every visit, who knows your property and your history.

Why General Pest Control Matters in Durham

Durham is in USDA Hardiness Zone 7a, with 45 inches of annual rainfall and just 45 freeze days per year. Year-round protection against common household pests using EPA-registered treatments.

The housing stock in Durham includes significant pre-1960 housing stock in Watts-Hillandale, Duke Forest, Old West Durham, and the Northgate Park neighborhoods, creating varied pest pressure patterns depending on your neighborhood.

Frequently Asked Questions — General Pest Control in Durham

For most Raleigh and Triangle homes, quarterly treatment (every 3 months) is the standard. The Triangle’s warm, humid climate means pest pressure is active most of the year. Some pest issues — like heavy ant or roach pressure — may warrant monthly visits initially, then quarterly once the infestation is cleared.

A standard general pest control treatment targets ants, cockroaches, spiders, silverfish, earwigs, and centipedes. Specialized treatments for termites, bed bugs, rodents, mosquitoes, and stinging insects are separate service lines that require different methods and products.

All CritterGetters treatments use EPA-registered products. They’re safe for children and pets once dry — typically 45 minutes after interior application, 1–2 hours for exterior perimeter spray in wet conditions. We’ll give you specific re-entry instructions based on what was applied.

A standard quarterly treatment for a typical 2,000 sq ft home takes 30–45 minutes. First treatments or heavy infestation situations take longer — typically 60–90 minutes — because we conduct a full inspection and treat more areas.

Not necessarily. We can treat the exterior perimeter without you home. For interior treatments, we do need access. Most clients give us a lockbox code or leave a key with a neighbor. We call ahead to confirm and send a notification when we’re done.
