Sequim sits in the driest pocket of Western Washington — roughly 16 inches of rain a year, against 35 or more in Port Angeles just 17 miles west. That "Blue Hole" is why people move here, and it is also why the pest pressure looks nothing like the rest of the Puget Sound region.
Dry ground pushes ants and spiders toward the one reliable moisture source on a property: the building itself. Irrigation ditches running out of the Dungeness Valley keep a green corridor through otherwise dry farmland, and homes backing onto those ditches see far heavier ant traffic than a house four blocks away. South-facing slopes on Bell Hill and Sunland bake all afternoon, which is prime wasp-nesting territory under eaves and deck rails.
Odorous house ants and giant house spiders dominate here. Wasp pressure peaks late July through September.
Average annual rainfall here runs about 16 inches, which is the single biggest factor in what shows up against your foundation and when. We build the treatment schedule around that rather than applying one generic program across the whole peninsula.
$600 a year in Sequim for a typical single-family home: 4 quarterly visits, with web and wasp nest knockdown at every visit. Current special: 10% off when you sign a one-year contract. Other towns add a small travel charge, quoted up front.
Covered by the contract at no extra charge — including spider web knockdown and wasp nest removal.
Sequim's dry summers push rodents toward irrigated yards and outbuildings. We run heavy-duty, tamper-resistant locked stations, serviced monthly — with a lower-risk bait for rural and acreage land, and a trapping-only Wildlife-Safe option that puts no rodenticide on your property at all.
