In Boise and across the Treasure Valley, box elder bugs are a common nuisance, especially during the spring and fall when they gather in large numbers around homes and buildings.

Professional Box Elder Bug Control in Boise & the Treasure Valley

Protect Your Home and Keep Box Elder Bugs Out for Good

Box elder bugs are a common sight in Boise and across the Treasure Valley, especially during spring and fall. While they don’t bite or transmit disease, these nuisance pests can stain walls, furniture, and curtains, invade attics and crawl spaces, and leave behind unpleasant odors when crushed. A few can quickly turn into hundreds, making professional box elder bug control essential for long-term relief.

At Wild West Pest Control, we offer specialized box elder bug control services designed to protect homes and businesses in our community. Founded by two lifelong friends who believe in honest, reliable service, our team treats every property like it’s our own.

Why Box Elder Bug Control Matters
  • Prevent Home Invasions
    Box elder bugs often cluster on siding, windows, and doors, then slip inside through tiny gaps. We target these entry points and stop infestations before they move indoors.
  • Protect Surfaces & Belongings
    When squashed, box elder bugs can leave red stains on curtains, walls, and upholstery. Our treatments reduce swarming activity and protect your home’s interior finishes.
  • Reduce Allergens & Odors
    Large infestations can produce unpleasant odors and, for some people, mild allergy-like reactions. Our control solutions help restore a cleaner, more comfortable home environment.
  • Seasonal Prevention
    Box elder bugs return year after year without proper prevention. We provide long-term solutions to block their entry points and keep them from swarming around your home every season.
Why Choose Wild West Pest Control?
  • Local Expertise: Based in Boise, we know exactly when and where box elder bugs strike in the Treasure Valley.
  • Safe & Effective Treatments: We use family- and pet-friendly products proven to eliminate and prevent box elder bug invasions.
  • Custom Plans: Every home and business is unique—we create personalized treatment strategies tailored to your property.
  • Guaranteed Service: If box elder bugs return, so do we—at no extra cost.

Don’t let box elder bugs take over your siding, windows, and living spaces. Call Wild West Pest Control today for professional box elder bug control in Boise and the entire Treasure Valley.

Common Pests We Eliminate

Ants
Spiders
Mice and Rats
Wasps
Cockroaches
Mosquitoes
Other Insects

Ant Control

Ants are more than just annoying—they’re relentless. From tiny pavement ants trailing into your pantry to carpenter ants damaging your home’s structure, each type brings its own challenges. At Wild West, we start by identifying the species and locating the nest (because killing the ants you see doesn’t solve the root problem). Then, we use pet-safe, family-friendly products to eliminate the colony at its source. We finish with sealing up entry points and offering prevention tips to keep them out for good. Ants might be persistent—but we’re more stubborn.

What Your Neighbors Say About Wild
West Pest Control

  • Alex Plew
    The best on every level! Getting rid of pests, expertise to come into the house and figure out what creepy crawler needs tackled, coming back when others show up (for no additional charge), customer service when we need to change dates, friendliness across all levels. Truly an amazing company to be… apart of. Many other companies have tried to undercut and steal my business, but we are Team Wild West for life for how amazing they have been across the board!
  • Kelly Foote
    So grateful we found Wild West Pest Control. Mike the owner and his wife are honest, professional and always so kind. They stand by their work and always do everything to make us happy. Wyatt does our service and he is always great to work with. Highly recommend Wild West. Great Price and Great Service!
  • MacKenzie Cooper
    We started noticing black widows around our house. Wild West was quick to respond and get us on their schedule. Their treatment is effective and works fast. Highly recommend!
  • Great service from Wild West Pest Control! They were professional, reliable, and did a fantastic job. The whole process was easy and hassle-free. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for dependable pest control service!
  • Patty Gibson
    We’ve used Wild West for about 3 years and are very happy customers. We see no bugs inside our home and very few outside. We had a wasp problem this summer and they were right on it! Highly recommend!
  • Cody Burnham
    The service technician was very nice and professional. He throughly complete the service, quick and easy. I had a couple questions he addressed quickly. I would highly recommend to coworkers, friends and family.
  • Tom Brown
    Wild West Pest Control has been a wonderful company to work with. They are always timely and their techs are thorough in treating whatever pest issues may arise. Mike Slagle and his entire team have always been very responsive to any question or request. Highly recommend this service company.
  • Phyllis Burt
    I am very impressed with Wild West Pet Control. It started right away with their receptionist. Heidi heard what I needed, explained the services available, didn't try and oversell me on services I didn't need and scheduled me right away. Scott came out, addressed my rodent problem, explained what he… found and what he did to fix it. He also gave me a great suggestion on how I could repair a problem with my garage door weather stripping that garage door repair people I had called in the past never mentioned. I was really wowed by these people; straight forward, skilled, knowledgeable, helpful and NICE!!!! I recommend Wild West Pest Control 200 % (no that's not a typo).
  • Dennis Dahlgren
    Wild West Pest Control technicians are always on time, professional, and thorough. We don't have to be home for the treatment but if we are, they always knock, introduce themselves, ask if there are points of concern, then explain completely what they will target that day. I highly recommend Mike… and his team for any and all your pest control needs.
  • Janet Tavernier
    Wild West Pest Control is truly one of the finest companies I’ve ever worked with. They are honest, hard-working, and genuinely care about the people they serve. That same integrity shows up in every member of their staff. Any time I’ve ever had a need or a question, they have been quick to respond,… accommodating, and very pleasant to work with. They consistently go out of their way to make sure their customers receive exceptional service, and I enjoy the results of those efforts by having a pest-free home year-round. It’s rare to find a company that is this dependable, ethical, and committed to doing things with such high standards. I highly recommend Wild West Pest Control - great people, great company, and truly outstanding service!
  • K McIntosh
    We’ve been using Wild West Pest Control for about two years, and their customer service has always been great. They’re friendly, professional, and very quick to respond whenever we need help. However, we still deal with pests returning not long after treatments, which has been frustrating. We do… live in Kuna and I’ve never used another Pest Control company to compare so I’m not sure if this is normal. I was also disappointed about the clover mite issue—we paid a lot extra for treatment that was supposed to get rid of them, but they never went away, and later we learned they typically can’t be fully eliminated during that time of year. Overall, they’re wonderful to work with, I wish the results were more consistent.
  • F. Davos
    Thanks Scott! Great communication and appreciated the photos. Thanks for addressing our rodent issue, ick! Excellent customer service, thorough and professional.
  • Daniel Densley
    Wild West Pest is the best! They come back for free if you ever see activity in between services. They are the best company to go with.
  • Julie Crider
    The team at Wild West Pest Control has been amazing. Mike, Heidi and the team have been professional & kind. We have had some “unusual” rodent activity and they were able to respond quickly. I highly recommend them
  • Torrye Jackson
    I recently used this pest control service for nest removal and was thoroughly impressed! Their team was professional, efficient, and very knowledgeable. What truly stood out was their same-day turnaround — they responded quickly to my request and had everything under control before the day was over.… I highly recommend them to anyone needing fast and reliable pest control and nest removal solutions!
  • Tracy W
    Get's the job done on time and schedules with advance notice so we can protect the dogs. They've made interim visits when we find a hot spot like pavement ants and come quickly. Notifies us upon arrival if we are home. Covers the whole home - front, back, sides. I have had zero concerns or… issues after working with them a few years. Recommended for sure.
  • a g
    Wild West is great. Can’t recommend them enough! They are incredibly thorough and reliable. They have made a huge difference to my property. I used to have tiny, little spiders that would cover my house in webs. They are completely gone. I have far less wasps, yellow jackets and ants as cc well. No… more creepers in my house too. They even put out traps for the whistle pigs that keep trying to make my yard their home. It’s so much better than it was. Their communication, scheduling and billing are also extremely convenient. Big thumbs up from me.
  • hayden Delaney
    Been great for us, I have been on with them for over a year, and if they come out and I see something else pop up afterwards. They always come out and help right away. Great people to work with! Its amazing how many pests they have been able to handle.
  • Lori
    We started using Wild West Pest Control this summer and are very pleased with their service. We had several wasp nests that they eradicated. They also took care of spiders, chinch bugs and a lot of other unwanted pests for us. Would highly recommend!
  • Sherry
    Awesome company! They are thorough and very professional. We’ve been using them for three years now. Wyatt, one of our techs, is very knowledgeable and always nice about accommodating us in any way possible. They don’t disappoint!
  • Mona Kelly
    Wild West is a top-notch company. We’ve been using them for a couple of years and never have a problem with anything. They stay totally on top of things and I would highly recommend their services.
  • Kathryn Kiernan
    Scott and then entire Wild West team have gone above and beyond on multiple instances for me. As someone who resides in a 125 year old home, there are special pest challenges that go along with the charm. Scott and team have eliminated an ant colony deep in the walls of the house and most recently… are coming to my rescue with what appears to be a spider nest. They are a 5 for sure with excellent customer service and knowledge and expertise unmatched. You will not be disappointed in their service ! Highly recommended!
  • Doris Chappius
    The service men are polite and communicate but I want to recognize the gal in the office, Heidi. Heidi is pleasant and easy to get questions answered. She is on top of scheduling and follow through. She calls to make sure you are aware of visits and if she says she will call you at a later date for… some reason, you can be sure you will get that call..
  • Jacquie Gill
    Wyatt, is a very professional, knowledgeable, and personalble young man, was treated with utmost respect, appreciated that very much, very helpful. Thank you Bunches, plan on being a customer for a very long time ❣️
  • Rebecca Palacios
    Scott was friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. His honesty was appreciated and refreshing. I understand the situation much more fully. Although they were unable to help with our current problem I will be contacting them for our future needs and feel confident in recommending Wild West to… others. We now have Wild West Pest Control serving our home on a regular basis. Wyatt our technician was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job. We've use a few pest control services and this is the best by far.
  • Steve Case
    Nice staff and good communications. Great to know if you have an issue they will be out to help at no charge. Fortunately we have not had any issues and the quarterly service has served us well.
  • Angela Salsedo
    Most people would give a 5 so don't go by my 4! They always address my concerns and anytime I message they respond promptly. My only issue is that I am deathly and I mean deathly afraid of spiders and we still have quite large ones in the patio and front porch. I think idaho spiders are bionic or… something! Even with that I would 100% recommend them! They also clean all the webs and Nats away, adressed the wasps promptly and even have a service for flys (extra cost) but might be worth trying.
  • Traci Allan
    By far the best Pest Control company around. Whatever our needs are. They take really great care of us.
  • Jason Heilmann
    I have been using wild west for a while now and am very pleased with the services that they provide. Besides taking care of the bugs and spiders, we had some mice a while back and they took care of that with no extra charge. They even fixed a crawl space vent that had a gap where rodents could get… through. Great company!
  • Andrea Brakebill
    Scott was professional and thorough today, explaining the process and products used to my husband and me both. We have used this company since moving to Idaho 1 1/2 years ago. I'm so glad Wild West came to our door when we first moved here! I can't recommend them enough.

Box Elder Bug Control FAQs

Why are box elder bugs a problem in Boise and the Treasure Valley?

Box elder bugs don’t bite or transmit disease, but they can stain walls, curtains, and furniture, create unpleasant odors, and invade homes in large numbers, especially during the spring and fall.

How do box elder bugs get inside my home?

These bugs often gather on sunny sides of buildings and slip through small cracks, gaps around windows, siding, doors, and vents. Once inside, they look for warm, sheltered areas to overwinter.

Can I get rid of box elder bugs on my own?

Vacuuming and sealing entry points can help, but large infestations usually require professional pest control to effectively remove the bugs and prevent them from returning year after year.

When is the best time for box elder bug treatments?

The most effective time to treat is in the early fall or spring, when box elder bugs are looking for overwintering spots or emerging in large numbers. Preventive treatments before swarming season offer the best results.

Are your box elder bug treatments safe for my family and pets?

Yes. We use EPA-approved, family- and pet-safe products applied by trained technicians, so you can feel confident knowing your home is protected safely and effectively.

Will box elder bugs come back after treatment?

Our treatments are designed to eliminate active populations and reduce future invasions by targeting entry points and surrounding areas. We also offer ongoing service plans with a satisfaction guarantee.

Do box elder bugs damage trees or landscaping?

Box elder bugs feed mainly on box elder, maple, and ash trees, but they don’t cause serious tree damage. Their main nuisance is swarming around homes and invading living spaces, not harming vegetation.
