We Know Virginia Beach Pest Problems—Because We Live Here, Too
Ants in the kitchen, roaches in the bathroom, mice in the attic—it’s not just you. Pests are a year-round problem across Virginia Beach, and every neighborhood has its own challenges. If you're in a waterfront home in Shadowlawn, a quiet cul-de-sac in Great Neck, a historic property in Old Beach, or a newer build in Salem Woods, you’ve probably dealt with bugs or rodents at some point.
The good news? Getem Services is a family-owned local company, and we’ve been solving pest problems across the 757 for over 100 years. We understand the seasonal pest activity in areas like Little Neck and Lago Mar. We know what kind of pest pressures affect Bayfront homes near Shore Drive and condos near Town Center. We’ve seen it all—and we’re here to help.
Seasonal Pest Problems in Virginia Beach, VA
With our mix of salty air, sandy soil, and mild winters, Virginia Beach is prime real estate for bugs and rodents. Here’s what to expect throughout the year:
Spring
- Ants – Spring rains drive ants indoors.
- Spiders – More insects means more spiders, particularly in garages and basements.
- Termites – Older homes iare especially vulnerable when termite swarmers take flight.
Summer
- Cockroaches – Heat and humidity bring out roaches, especially in kitchens and bathrooms.
- Rodents – Mice and rats forage near outdoor kitchens grills, trash bins, and other outdoor areas.
- Mosquitoes– Cookouts often come with these buzzing, biting pests.
Fall
- Wasps – Depleted food sources make wasps more aggressive.
- Spiders – They move indoors seeking warmth and food sources.
- Rodents – As the temperatures drop, mice and rats move indoors in search of warm nesting spots.
Winter
- Rodents – Mice and rats stay active indoors during the winter months.
- Cockroaches – These vile pests don't disappear when it gets cold out; they hang out in warm hiding spots close to food and water sources.
- Spiders - If their food sources are still around, spiders will be, too.
