Why Choose Magna Pest for Box Elder Bug Control?

Box Elder bugs are often found swarming sunlit walls, windows, and siding in fall and spring. While they don’t damage structures or sting, they invade in large numbers, especially near trees or on warmer days. Once inside, they’re difficult to eliminate without professional treatment.

Our control strategy is built on targeted inspections, technician-applied treatments, and dependable follow-up every 60 days.

My service is always timely and efficient. They are very communicative and give me reminders ahead of time and then a window of time the day of, which is helpful in scheduling out my day. Bryan is friendly and addresses things I ask for, as well as noticing things I have not, and treating what’s needed. He is knowledgeable and explains things to me in a way I can understand. Magna is also great about responding to issues that come up in between my scheduled service dates and their response is prompt. I highly recommend them!
