Newport News Pest Control Services
Newport News sits at the heart of the Virginia Peninsula, and its unique geography creates year-round pest pressure that most Hampton Roads homeowners know all too well. Precision Pest Management has been protecting Newport News homes and businesses with licensed, family-owned pest control you can trust.
Shipyard to City Center: Newport News Service Coverage
Newport News is not a one-size-fits-all city when it comes to pest control, and we do not treat it like one.
Historic Hilton Village & Downtown
Early 20th-century construction means aging wood, settled foundations, and moisture pathways that subterranean termites and carpenter ants exploit aggressively. We use treatments that address the pest without compromising historic architectural character.
Shipyard & Industrial Zones
Properties near Huntington Ingalls and the East End industrial corridor face elevated pressure from German and American cockroaches, rodents, and ants that migrate from commercial and industrial zones into residential areas. Perimeter barrier treatments are especially critical here.
James River & Waterfront
Proximity to the James River and its tributaries drives some of the most intense mosquito and moisture-related pest activity in the region. Waterfront properties need breeding site management combined with barrier treatments to see meaningful reduction.
Suburbs & CNU District
Suburban residential neighborhoods face classic seasonal pest cycles -- termite swarms in spring, mosquitoes through summer, rodents in fall. Student housing near CNU has high turnover creating conditions favoring cockroaches. We offer flexible plans.
Tackling Newport News's Unique Pest Challenges
From the shift schedules at Huntington Ingalls to the historic homes of Hilton Village, we build our treatments around the realities of living on the Peninsula.
Residential Protection
Quarterly and bi-monthly plans covering typical household pests. Free re-treatments are included between visits if pests return.
Learn MoreTermite & Moisture
The Peninsula's humidity and older construction makes homes highly susceptible. We offer liquid barriers and ongoing termite monitoring.
Protect Your HomeCommercial Programs
From restaurants in City Center to industrial facilities near the shipyard. We provide discrete, effective, and compliant pest management.
Secure Your BusinessSeasonal Pest Patterns
Newport News pest activity follows predictable seasonal cycles. Knowing what to expect helps you stay ahead of problems before they become infestations.
Spring (March-May)
Subterranean termite swarms emerge. Ant colonies activate and forage. Critical time for termite inspections.
Summer (June-August)
Mosquito outbreaks near waterfronts. Wasps & stinging insects get aggressive. Roach activity surges.
Fall (September-November)
Rodents seek warm shelter indoors. Spiders become highly visible. Prime time to seal entry points.
Winter (December-February)
Rodents and roaches nest indoors. Crawl space moisture issues escalate. Regular clearing prevents spring outbreaks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. We offer 10% off all services for active military, veterans, and their families. We also work around shift schedules -- including maritime and shipyard schedules -- to make sure service appointments are not a hassle. Call us at (757) 854-9177 to schedule.
Older homes require more careful assessment of entry points, wood condition, and moisture pathways before treatment. We use methods and products appropriate for the structure -- avoiding anything that could damage historic woodwork, masonry, or finishes. The goal is effective treatment that protects both the pest problem and the property itself.
Newport News sits between the James River and York River watersheds, which keeps soil moisture consistently high -- ideal conditions for Eastern subterranean termites. Older construction, pier-and-beam foundations, and crawl spaces without adequate moisture barriers are especially vulnerable. Annual inspections are strongly recommended for any Newport News homeowner, particularly if you are near wooded areas or waterfront.
Yes. We use EPA-registered products selected for effectiveness against your target pest. After interior treatments, we provide specific re-entry instructions -- typically 2 to 4 hours of ventilation time. Let us know about any sensitivities in your household before we begin so we can choose the most appropriate products.
All of our service plans include free re-treatments if covered pests return between visits. We will schedule a follow-up promptly at no additional charge.
Yes. We work with property managers, landlords, and commercial clients throughout Newport News including the CNU area. We offer flexible scheduling to work around tenant turnover and can provide service documentation for health inspections or regulatory compliance needs.
