Candor Pest Control is a family owned company headquartered in Meridian, with a second office in Garden City, serving Ada, Canyon, Gem, Payette, Owyhee and Boise counties plus Ontario, Oregon. Every service below is timed to Idaho’s pest calendar rather than a national one, and every visit covers considerably more than a foundation spray: eaves, soffits, window and door frames, utility penetrations, landscaping beds, fence lines and the yard.
If pests return between scheduled visits, the re-service is free and we aim to have a technician on site within 48 hours.
Ant control. Our most common call across Ada and Canyon counties. Odorous house ants, pavement ants, carpenter ants, field ants and pharaoh ants each need different handling, and the treatment that clears one can make another worse. We bait the colony rather than spraying the trail.
Spider control. Black widow, hobo, wolf and yellow sac spiders are the four that matter here. Spider pressure peaks in fall, and it is heaviest along canal corridors and in foothills properties where the food supply and the moisture both sit close to the house.
Wasp and hornet control. Paper wasps, yellowjackets and bald-faced hornets. Queens found nests in spring and colonies build fast through summer, which is why a nest nobody noticed in May is a problem over a patio in August. Removing a founding nest in April takes minutes.
Mosquito control. Treasure Valley mosquito pressure tracks the irrigation season. The New York Canal, the Ridenbaugh Canal and the Boise River run roughly April to October, and properties near them get breeding sites that yards two miles inland never see. Available as a May to October add-on.
Cockroach control. German cockroaches spread fast in apartments and duplexes through shared plumbing chases, while Oriental cockroaches come in from crawl spaces, floor drains and window wells. We treat the harborage where they breed, not the spot you saw one.
Bed bug control. A different kind of job, quoted separately after inspection. Bed bugs do not indicate a dirty home, they indicate travel or a used piece of furniture, and they will not resolve without a full protocol.
Rodent control. House mice, deer mice and Norway rats. Fall is when they move, and foothills neighborhoods above Boise see mice pushing down as the hills dry out. We exclude entry points rather than just baiting, because a mouse needs a gap the width of a pencil.
Vole and pocket gopher control. These wreck lawns, root systems and irrigation lines, and spring is peak damage as the ground softens and snowmelt reveals a winter’s worth of vole runways. Worst on acreage and on lots backing onto farmland or open ground.
Residential pest control. One ongoing plan covering 32 common insect species, so you are not finding a new company every time a different pest shows up. Three plans, each running quarterly or every other month, with rodent coverage from Standard up and mosquito work included on Complete.
Commercial pest control. Integrated pest management for Treasure Valley restaurants, offices, warehouses, retail and rental portfolios. Service windows scheduled around trading hours, and a digital service report after every visit for the documentation health inspectors ask for.
| Season | Dominant pressure | Services in demand |
|---|---|---|
| Spring | Ants wake, wasp queens found nests, voles most destructive | Ant, wasp, vole and gopher |
| Summer | Peak ant activity, wasp colonies build, mosquitoes track irrigation | Ant, wasp, mosquito |
| Fall | Busiest season. Spiders peak, rodents move indoors | Spider, rodent, commercial exclusion |
| Winter | Rodents dominate, insects mostly dormant | Rodent, cockroach |
Ongoing plans start at $39 a month for Essential Protection, which covers 32 common insect species with free re-service between visits. Standard Protection is $49 a month, adding mice and other common household rodents. Complete Protection is $69 a month and is our most popular plan, adding mosquito and fly control as six monthly treatments through the season. Each one runs quarterly or every other month, whichever suits the property. Full detail is on our pricing page.
One-time treatments, bed bug work, vole and gopher programs and commercial sites are quoted after inspection, because the price genuinely varies with the property. The inspection is free, and if a single visit will resolve what you have, we will say so.
Our routes run from Meridian and Garden City across the whole Treasure Valley, including Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, Eagle, Kuna, Star, Middleton and out to Emmett, Fruitland and Payette. Technicians are local. When you call the office you speak to someone here, not a call center in another state.
We are members of the Meridian Chamber of Commerce and the Idaho Pest Management Association, rated 5.0 from 453 Google reviews. We do not do termite treatment, wildlife trapping or fumigation, and we will refer you out rather than take work we are not set up for.

Questions
If you have one active problem and know what it is, go straight to that service page. If you are seeing different pests through the year, which is the normal pattern in the Treasure Valley, a residential plan covering 32 common insect species usually costs less than separate callouts. Call us and we will tell you which of the two makes sense for your property.
Ongoing plans start at $39 a month for Essential Protection covering 32 common insect species, $49 a month for Standard Protection which adds mice and other common household rodents, and $69 a month for Complete Protection which adds mosquito and fly control. Each runs quarterly or every other month. One-time treatments and specialist work like bed bugs, voles and gophers are quoted after inspection. The inspection is free.
We serve Ada, Canyon, Gem, Payette, Owyhee and Boise counties plus Ontario, Oregon, from our Meridian headquarters and Garden City office. That includes Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, Eagle, Kuna, Star, Garden City, Middleton, Emmett, Fruitland, Payette, Melba, Homedale, Marsing, Parma, Horseshoe Bend, Hidden Springs and Avimor.
Re-service is free on every plan and we target a technician on site within 48 hours. Pests returning between scheduled visits is not treated as your problem to absorb, it is the reason the promise exists. Call the office and we will book the return visit.
We do not do termite treatment, wildlife trapping or fumigation. Idaho has low termite pressure compared to the South, so those calls are rare, and when they come we refer you to someone who specializes rather than taking work we are not set up for.
