Stop swarming boxelder bugs from invading your exterior walls, windows, and indoor living spaces. Complete year round protection begins at $49 a month following an initial $99 setup.
What's Included
Spud Pest eliminates local boxelder bugs by targeting active breeding trees and stopping massive autumn wall gatherings. Hot summer breeding seasons, boxelder trees, and silver maples drive heavy populations across Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho, drawing thousands of bugs directly to sunny siding, window frames, and entryways. Our protection plans create a durable exterior perimeter that stops overwintering swarms, protects exterior walls, and prevents indoor invasions year round.
Every plan covers complete perimeter inspections, sunny wall barrier applications, window well treatments, and entry point sealing. You get full defense against Eastern boxelder bugs and western boxelder bugs, backed by total warranty protection and unlimited free re-treatments whenever pests return between regular service visits.
How it works
Every visit follows a simple, proven process to knock down active swarms, treat sun exposed walls, and keep bugs from wintering inside your home:
Detailed Exterior Inspection
We check boxelder and maple trees, window seals, soffits, and sun exposed exterior walls for active clusters and entry gaps.
Targeted Wall and Siding Application
We apply specialized residual treatments directly to sunny siding, brickwork, and window frames to eliminate swarming bugs on contact.
Micro Encapsulated Foundation Barrier
We treat lower foundation walls, garage thresholds, and entry door frames to prevent bugs from crawling through structural gaps.
Keep Them Away
We return on a regular seasonal schedule to apply protective barriers before fall swarming peaks, maintaining continuous protection year round.
We’ll text you when your technician is on the way, so you always know we’re coming.

Boxelder bugs gather on warm exterior walls in autumn to soak up heat before seeking winter shelter. South and west facing walls absorb solar warmth, drawing thousands of bugs from nearby trees to hibernate inside your siding gaps, attic voids, and window frames over winter.
No, boxelder bugs do not bite, sting, eat wood, or cause structural damage. However, they are a major nuisance pest due to their massive swarm sizes, and their orange droppings can stain carpet, curtains, window blinds, and light colored siding if crushed indoors.
Crushing boxelder bugs releases a strong orange fluid that permanently stains fabrics and walls. Additionally, dead boxelder bugs trapped inside wall voids attract secondary pests like carpet beetles and spiders.
Yes, our products are applied specifically along exterior siding, window frames, and foundation entry points away from high traffic family areas. Once the liquid applications dry completely (typically within 30 to 60 minutes), children and pets can safely return to using the yard and outdoor living spaces.
