Yard & Dock Protection in Davidson
Reclaim Your Outdoor Space in Davidson
Summer in our region should be spent on the patio or the dock, not swatting at bugs. Our approach focuses on long-term population reduction, not quick spray-and-pray treatments. We provide targeted outdoor pest control that reduces dangerous and annoying pests, letting you actually enjoy your yard.
02
Disrupt
We apply larvicides to standing water and insect growth regulators (IGRs) to soil areas, stopping the next generation of pests before they can hatch.
03
Maintain
Outdoor products break down with UV light and rain. We return on a seasonal rotation to refresh the barrier, backed by our free respray guarantee.
Vector Control: Pest Biology
The Biology of the Bite
More Than Just Annoying
Mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas are vectors for serious issues like West Nile Virus, Lyme Disease, and tapeworms. Protecting your yard isn't just about comfort; it's about health safety for your family and pets.
Spraying the air doesn't work. We target the biology of the pest. By treating the underside of leaves where mosquitoes rest, and the soil where fleas hatch, we cut the population at the source.
We target resting zones, breeding sites, and life cycles—the three points that actually reduce outdoor pest populations in Davidson.
Target Protocols
Mosquitoes
We target the "resting zones"—cool, shady areas under decks and broad-leaf shrubbery. We also treat standing water with larvicides to stop wigglers from becoming flyers.
Ticks
Ticks don't jump or fly; they wait on tall grass ("questing") to latch onto passing legs. We create a barrier spray around the perimeter of your yard and wood lines.
Fleas
Fleas thrive in shaded soil and pet bedding. We treat the exterior to stop them from hitching a ride, and use Growth Regulators to stop eggs from hatching in your lawn.
These targeted protocols interrupt breeding, resting, and feeding behaviors—resulting in faster reduction and fewer biting pests.

Stinging Insect Control
From aggressive Yellow Jackets nesting in the ground to Hornets building football-sized nests in your eaves, stinging insects are a liability.
We provide fast, effective stinging insect control for active nests in Davidson, with preventative treatments to stop them from returning.
Carpenter Bees: The Wood Destroyers
Those large black bees hovering around your deck aren't eating wood—they are drilling into it to nest. Untreated galleries expand each season, and returning bees can cause increasing damage over time.

- Safe removal of hornet & wasp nests
- Ground treatment for yellow jackets

Proudly Serving Davidson Homeowners
Davidson's environment - ranging from the historic college campus to the scenic greenways along the lake - creates the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, ticks, and stinging pests. Properties near Fisher Farm, Roosevelt Wilson Park, and the tree-lined streets of the historic district often struggle to enjoy their patios, pools, and yards due to aggressive biting insects harboring in the foliage and wood lines. Foothills Pest Solutions helps you reclaim your outdoor space with a targeted 'Knockdown, Disrupt, Maintain' protocol that stops vectors like mosquitoes and ticks at the source.
As neighborhoods expand along Davidson-Concord Road, Shearer Road, and the edges of the River Run community, disturbed soil and new landscaping often trigger surges in fire ants, wasps, and hornets. Davidson residents rely on our seasonal barrier treatments to break the breeding cycle and reduce adult populations. Whether you are protecting your pets from ticks or keeping your eaves and decks clear of dangerous stinging insects, Foothills Pest Solutions delivers the local expertise needed to enjoy a bug-free summer.
Outdoor Pest Control FAQ
Expert Answers for Davidson Residents
Answers about safety, weather, product effectiveness, and our service process.
Our products are designed with polymers that bind to foliage. Once dried (usually 30-45 minutes), they are rain-fast. In fact, rain can help activate granular fire ant and flea treatments by washing them into the soil. If you do notice a washout, call us for a free touch-up.
Absolutely. We ask that you keep pets and children inside while we are actively spraying and until the product has completely dried (usually 30-45 minutes). Once dry, the barrier is bonded to surfaces, making it safe for pets to play in the yard.
We are trained to protect pollinators. We strictly avoid spraying open blooms where bees forage. Instead, we target the underside of broad leaves in shady areas where mosquitoes rest, minimizing impact on beneficial insects.
If you are on a monthly plan and see a surge in pest activity between scheduled visits, call us. We will return to treat the problem area at no additional cost.
Typically 21-28 days depending on weather and UV intensity. Our scheduled maintenance plans ensure we return to refresh the barrier before it breaks down, keeping your protection continuous through the season.
Yes. We use EPA-approved products specifically rated for use near water. We treat the structure (wood/metal) to control spiders and remove webs manually, ensuring no harmful runoff enters the lake ecosystem.
Store-bought foggers often only kill insects on contact but don't leave a residual barrier. Our commercial-grade micro-encapsulated products continue to work for weeks. Plus, we know exactly where pests breed and hide, treating the source rather than just the air.
No. Since all outdoor pest control happens on the exterior, you do not need to be home. We just ask that gates are unlocked and pets are indoors. We will leave a service ticket on your door so you know we were there.
