Protecting Homes Across the Mountains
Your home is one of your biggest investments, and pests don't respect the front door. From ants marching across the kitchen counter to mice slipping into the crawl space when the temperature drops, the wooded lots and wood-framed homes of Western North Carolina give pests plenty of ways in. Stephenson Pest Control is a family-owned local company, and we know exactly what our mountain climate throws at homeowners season after season.
We are a family owned company, so the person treating your home is a neighbor who lives and works in the same community you do. That's a very different experience from a rotating cast of technicians from a national chain, and our customers feel the difference.
Common Household Pests We Treat
- Ants, including carpenter ants and sugar ants
- Spiders and cobweb buildup
- Cockroaches and crickets
- Mice, rats, and other rodents
- Stink bugs, ladybugs, and other overwintering pests
- Wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets
- Silverfish, millipedes, and occasional invaders
Why Year-Round Protection Matters
It is easy to assume pest control is only a warm-weather concern, but the cooler months are when many pests work hardest to get inside. As temperatures fall, rodents, spiders, and overwintering insects search for shelter, and your heated home is the most inviting target around. Maintaining a consistent barrier through the winter keeps that pressure outside where it belongs, and catches small issues before they turn into costly infestations.
Our Quarterly Pest Control Program
The heart of our residential service is a quarterly protection plan built to stop pests before they become a problem. Rather than reacting to one infestation at a time, we maintain a protective barrier around your home all year long and adjust each visit to match the season, targeting spring nesting activity, summer pest pressure, and the fall rush of rodents and overwintering insects.
Each quarterly visit includes both interior and exterior treatment, a sweep for webs and nests, and a check of any problem areas you have flagged. We handle your scheduling for you and send reminders by text or email, so you never have to remember to call. Best of all, if pests show up between visits, we come back and re-treat at no additional charge.
Every home is different, so your price depends on the size and needs of your property. Give us a call for a quote, and we'll confirm everything at your free inspection.

What Homeowners Are Saying
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my home treated for pests?
For most homes, quarterly service provides the best year-round protection. It keeps a consistent barrier in place through every season and lets us catch problems early. Some situations call for a different rhythm, and we will recommend what fits your home rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule.
Are your treatments safe for children and pets?
Your family's safety is our priority. Our licensed technicians apply every product responsibly and according to label guidelines, targeting the areas where pests travel and hide. If you have specific concerns about children, pets, or a garden, let your technician know and they will walk you through the plan.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
No. Our quarterly program is ongoing, but you are never locked into a long-term contract and you can cancel at any time. We would rather earn your business every visit.
What happens if pests come back between visits?
Just call us. Re-service between your scheduled quarterly visits is included at no additional charge, and we will come back out to take care of it.
What areas do you serve?
We serve homeowners across six Western North Carolina counties: Haywood, Jackson, Buncombe, Henderson, Macon, and Swain, including Waynesville, Canton, Clyde, Maggie Valley, and Lake Junaluska.
