Pest Control in Hickory
Serving Homes and Businesses
Bug Busters has provided professional pest control for residential and commercial properties since 1998, backed by more than 45 years of combined experience. As a family-owned and veteran-owned business, we bring the values of integrity, reliability, and service to every job.
We understand Hickory’s unique pest challenges. Homes near Lake Hickory often deal with increased mosquito activity, while businesses downtown must stay vigilant against the cockroaches and rodents that thrive in older buildings.
Seasonal shifts also bring spikes in ants and spiders, and wooded areas surrounding neighborhoods can create an open invitation for wildlife. We offer same-day scheduling and emergency service. Whether dealing with pests in a house off Springs Road or a storefront near Union Square, you shouldn’t have to wait for help.

Our Services
Every infestation needs a targeted plan, which is why we use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to combine safe treatments with long-term prevention.
Here are some of the most common infestations that arise in the Hickory area and how we can help:
- Ants. In the warmer months, ants are a frequent nuisance in kitchens and breakrooms. We track the colony’s source and implement preventive steps to make it harder for them to come back.
- Cockroaches. Roaches thrive in humid basements and the older commercial buildings downtown. With IPM, we combine sanitation improvements, sealing entry points, and precise treatments for durable results.
- Fleas and ticks. Hickory residents face frequent flea and tick problems near wooded areas and pet-friendly neighborhoods. We provide family and pet-safe solutions to protect your home and yard.
- Mosquitoes. Living near the Catawba River or Lake Hickory often means heavy mosquito activity. Our seasonal mosquito control reduces breeding grounds and allows you to enjoy the outdoors again.
- Rodents. Mice and rats can enter through tiny gaps in older homes and warehouses. We deal with infestations, seal entry points, and help protect your property from costly damage.
- Spiders. Basements and garages are common hiding spots for spiders. We identify conducive conditions and know how to reduce populations safely.
- Termites. Hickory’s mix of older homes and new construction makes termite protection vital. Our termite treatments focus on both addressing active colonies and stopping future invasions.
- Wildlife. From squirrels in the attic to raccoons near dumpsters, wildlife can create big problems. We provide humane removal and exclusion solutions to keep animals out.
