Pests are a common problem in Cleveland. Lists by Terminix and Orkin ranked Cleveland #1 and #13 among cities for bedbug infestation in 2016. Bedbugs, along with cockroaches and carpenter ants, are among the most frequently seen pests in Cleveland homes. Carpenter ants often “chew out” materials, increasing their nesting area and causing structural problems.
Bedbug infestation is common in rental properties with off-site landlords, who are often unaware of infestations until they significantly progress. Regulations restrict usage of traditionally effective, but toxic, chemical products, making it expensive to exterminate bedbugs. Most over-the-counter products are ineffective; therefore, more costly professional pest control service is needed.
Cockroaches thrive in multi-unit buildings where they easily spread to other units. In recent years, cockroach infestations on Cleveland's Delray Avenue and in Elyria have caught the public's attention.
Common pests in Cleveland, by area
Neighborhood | Pest | Key Contributing Factor |
---|---|---|
West Park | Mice & pavement ants | Many older homes have missing or damaged gable vent screens on side of home. |
Lorain Ave & W. 150th | Bedbugs | Mostly in large multi-unit complexes where problems spread. |
Clark-Fulton | Cockroaches | Many reuse boxes to transport food since grocers do not provide bags. |
Union-Miles | Bedbugs | Some landlords fail to sufficiently exterminate. |
Lakewood | Rats | Prefer low-elevation lakefront areas and enter via uncovered basement floor drains |
Most pest control companies in Cleveland will offer free on-site estimates, while some will prefer phone consultations and email quotes.
On average, owners of midsized homes pay between $135 and $300 for initial insect treatments and $25 to $60 for follow-up visits. Visits to set rodent traps typically cost between $150 and $175, and costs for bedbug treatments range from $300 to $600. Chemical termite treatments can cost between $7.78 and $9 per linear foot. Expect extra charges for emergency services. Most companies guarantee their work quality.
Ohio's Department of Agriculture regulates testing and licensing for pesticide applicators. Consumers may verify provider licensing status using a search tool. Pesticide businesses must have general liability coverage and separate policies for each pesticide category license.
