Ant Control

Ants are one of the most common household pests in Raleigh, NC, and once they find a way in, the whole colony follows. Our targeted crack-and-crevice treatments eliminate ants at the source without leaving granules or residue where your kids and pets play. With recurring service built into your plan, we keep ants from coming back season after season.

Cockroach Control

Raleigh's warm, humid climate makes it a hotspot for roaches, and once they settle in, they multiply fast. We use interior crack-and-crevice treatments and targeted baits to wipe out infestations without spraying chemicals across your living spaces. Our methods keep roaches out of your drains, kitchen, and patio so your home stays clean and comfortable.

Mosquito Control

Mosquito season in Raleigh runs from April through September, and without proper treatment your yard can feel unusable. Our lawn application program cuts mosquito populations down without fogging or gas-powered equipment, keeping things safe for pollinators and your family alike. You can actually enjoy your backyard again all season long.

Termite Control

In the Raleigh area, termites aren’t a question of if, but when. They can silently damage your home's structure for months before you ever notice the signs. We provide thorough inspections, proven treatments, and ongoing monitoring to protect what is likely your biggest investment.

Rodent Control

Mice and rats can chew through wiring, contaminate food, and create health hazards for Raleigh homeowners. Our team identifies how rodents are getting in, traps and removes them, and seals off entry points to stop them from returning. We handle the whole process, so you don’t have to worry about a repeat problem.

Wildlife Removal

Squirrels, raccoons, and other wildlife around Raleigh can cause real damage once they get into your attic or crawl space. Our NC State wildlife biologist leads humane exclusion services that safely remove animals and seal off entry points for good. We get wildlife out of your home and make sure they stay out.

We also handle fire ants, spiders, beetles, ticks, wasps, honey bees, squirrels, flying squirrels, raccoons, opossums, skunks, birds, bats, plus crawlspace services, gutter guards and commercial pest control.

Built By Mom. Backed by Science.

Invicta Pest Control started with family. After we adopted two of our five children and saw the pest conditions they’d been living in, we knew no family should ever have to deal with that. That experience lit a fire in us.

With 20+ years in pest control and a team that includes a Board-Certified Entomologist, Environmental Scientist, and a Wildlife Biologist from NC State, we bring real expertise to every home we treat. And because we’re parents first, every treatment is designed with your family’s safety at the center.

“Invicta – by far – was the best choice for us! It was incredibly helpful for me to be able to speak with Mike, their Entomologist, to talk ‘pests and chemicals’! Their pricing is fair and scheduling was so easy.”
JessicaGoogle review, Raleigh
“We interviewed a number of pest management companies serving Cary. Mike, Liza, and their team stood out for their expertise, responsiveness, and professionalism. We opted for the Grand Slam and Termite Plan, and couldn't be happier with their service.”
DelaGattorreGoogle review, Cary
“They came out to the playground/garden space of a children's nonprofit in Durham and got rid of the imported red fire ants. With five children of their own, they won't consider using any substance that would hurt children.”
Sarah BickleyGoogle review, Durham
“Timely and effective. They first removed a yellow jacket nest from our outdoor storage shed. One and done. They were so nice and professional that we then decided to use them as our full time pest control company.”

Top Raleigh Exterminator FAQs

Is your pest control safe for kids and pets?

Yes. Every treatment is planned with your family’s safety in mind. Inside, we use targeted crack-and-crevice treatments that keep products out of reach of children and pets. Outside your Raleigh home, we never use granules, so there’s nothing for little hands, shoes, or paws to pick up.

Do I need to leave my home during pest control treatment?

No. We use precise crack-and-crevice applications indoors, so you and your family can stay home and even watch. We just ask that pets stay in a room we aren’t treating until we finish. Our exterminators work quickly to keep the disruption small.

What happens if I see pests between visits?

We come back at no extra cost. Our pest control plans include free re-treatments between scheduled visits, so if something shows up, we take care of it right away.

How soon can an exterminator come to my Raleigh home?

In most cases, the same day or the next day, depending on availability. Pest problems don’t wait, so we move as quickly as we can to get your home protected.

Can I send you a picture to identify a pest?

Absolutely. Snap a picture of what you’re seeing and send it to us. Our team, including a Board Certified Entomologist, can often identify the pest and recommend the right treatment before we even visit, which saves you time and gets you results faster.

Tell us what you’re seeing and we’ll get back to you fast. Visits are often the same day or next.
