Typical Newport News Pest Control Problems
Newport News is located between Williamsburg and Virginia Beach and is bordered by the James River and Chesapeake Bay. The city’s scenic beauty draws in tourists and pests alike. Ants are just one category of pests that thrive on the humid coast of Newport News. Common ants like pavement ants and odorous house ants will make their way inside easily. They can even infest properties. However, they are more nuisances than dangerous problems. On the other hand, carpenter ants will chew through walls and demolish anything made of wood. Because of this, it’s important to keep an eye out for ants on your Newport News property.
Just like ants, wasps can also swarm homes in the summer months. Unfortunately, wasps are much more aggressive. They will defend their nests at all costs, even if there is no real threat. Perceived threats are met with bites and stings that do not cause wasps to die as they would for many bees. Ultimately, the best way to get rid of wasps is by removing their nests and treating the area. This requires protective gear and professional skill. If you notice wasps nesting on your property, call Fox Pest Control for prompt wasp extermination services.

Our Connection to Newport News
Jarett Johnson is a technician in our Newport News branch. Jarrett was born in Japan while his family was overseas for military service. He moved to Virginia later in life where he went on to attend Buffalo High School. Eventually, he found his way to Newport News where he currently lives.
Jarrett enjoys going to Patrick Henry Mall in Newport News. His favorite store there is GameStop, and he hops in there every time he makes a trip to the mall. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s been hard to get out. Gaming has been a fun way for him to interact with the online community during the pandemic.
Like Jarrett, Fox enjoys being part of the Newport News community. We are a member of the Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce. We also have our second office in Newport News.

Fox Pest Control’s Pest Exterminator Service
Pests come in all shapes and sizes. From ants in your kitchen, to termites in your foundation, bug infestations are an inevitable part of homeownership in Virginia Beach. Some bugs are just a nuisance, like silverfish or crickets which like dark damp places. Other pests like termites or rodents are cause for concern as they cause property damage and can carry disease. Whatever the pest problem you might have in Virginia Beach, you came to the right place. Fox Pest Control is experienced at combating whatever Virginia Beach pest might be bothering you.
Signs of a Pest Infestation
You might already know you have a pest problem. But here are a couple of the most common signs a pest control extermination look for in Virginia Beach.
- You can see the pest. The most common reason people discover they have a pest problem in Virginia Beach is simply by observing it. It could be a mouse in your house, cockroaches skittering when you turn on the lights, or a swarm of hornets around a nest. In any case, it’s time to get rid of pests!
- Signs of activity. Pests are adept at hiding from us, so you won’t always spot them. Instead, you might notice signs of their presence such as rodent droppings or small piles of “saw dust” resulting from termite or carpenter ant activity.
What You Need to Know About Pests
- Pests come in a large variety. In Virginia Beach, the most common kinds of pests you’ll see around your home include:
- Pests find their way in through any open, unsealed space. This includes cracks in the wood and gaps in the window or old weather stripping. It’s important to get help from a professional exterminator because, depending on the species, they may create nests, contaminate food and water in your kitchen and bathroom, or cause damage to the inside of walls, electrical wiring, or other parts of the house.
- While some pests can cause home damage, many carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans. You must control mosquitoes and rodents as they are the most notorious for this.
- Spiders and wasps are famous for their venomous bite and painful sting. Extreme cases of spider bites or wasp stings can cause life-threatening reactions and hospitalization.
Helpful Virginia Beach Pest Prevention Tips
- Seal cracks to prevent intrusion.
- Clean baseboards, cabinets, and countertops regularly.
- Store all food in airtight containers.
