No Cats & Dogs
You live in Cold Springs, and pests often strike when you least expect them. That’s where Critter Bros Reno‑Tahoe comes in. Studies show that effective wildlife control can reduce property damage by up to 60 percent, saving you both time and money. Think of us as your friendly neighborhood pest team, local, skilled, and ready to serve your home or property with care and respect. We offer humane, environmentally friendly methods that protect your space all year round. These methods, backed by trends in humane wildlife control, keep your home safe from invasive wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, bats, and rodents. Effective wildlife control helps prevent chewing through wiring, insulation damage, and structural issues while reducing risks of contamination or odors caused by animal activity. According to USDA Wildlife Services reports, wildlife-related property damage in Nevada represents a significant portion of damage claims statewide. With Critter Bros Reno‑Tahoe, you get a local team that understands the unique Cold Springs environment, responds fast, and applies gentle, proven techniques. That means fewer emergencies, healthier surroundings, and more peace of mind for your family and property.
You want top pest and wildlife control that understands the seasons, the local wildlife, and homes just like yours. Whether it’s rodent control, insect infestations, or wildlife exclusion, we’ve got you. We offer:
Wasps, flies, and bees become unwelcome visitors in warmer months. When summer heat peaks, wasps build mature nests and switch to seeking sweeter, carbohydrate-rich foods, which raises the risk of stings near your patio or yard. Ants and cockroaches often invade kitchens looking for crumbs and cool backsplash. In fact, over one in four Americans spotted ants indoors last year, and nearly 14 million reported seeing cockroaches in their homes in 2021. Your spring season favorite BBQ spot becomes a hangout for uninvited pests.
Tip: Keep food covered, seal cracks around windows, and call us for a targeted treatment plan.
As temperatures dip in Cold Springs, rodents like mice, rats, and even curious squirrels seek warm shelter. What begins as a small attic crack can quickly become a full‑blown infestation. In fact, across the U.S., about 11.6 percent of households, that’s around 16.2 million homes, report rodent issues annually.
We tackle this with a strategic blend of humane traps, wildlife exclusion, and insulation repair to make your home rodent‑free and permanently seal entry points. This approach helps guard against health risks like disease and allergens, stops structural damage from chewing, and ensures your Cold Springs home stays protected through the chilly months.
Pest activity in Cold Springs shifts with the seasons, delivering surprises throughout the year:
Experts from USDA Wildlife Services highlight the effectiveness of exclusion methods like sealing vents and gaps to keep rodents, bats, and other wildlife out of your property permanently. That’s why we customize our treatment plans to match local pest trends, helping your home stay comfortable and pest-free all year.

Nick was kind and responsive. He helped me with pigeon exclusion services. The first time he installed the exclusion , two pigeon nests with young pigeons were left behind (by accident) and he returned to make sure the pigeons were safely removed and redid the service. Due to having to come multiple times he also did a quick pressure wash of the front and side walkway where there was a lot of pigeon droppings. Great customer service ! Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

Penny WoodsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
I reviewed several websites of pest control firms to eradicate my home’s roof of nesting pigeons and to barricade future access to the space under my solar panels. The Critter Brothers website showed a wire mesh fencing product which i thought would work better than the plastic or metal spikes shown on other websites. Nick called me right back when i called to inquire and provided me a quote within a day. The work was scheduled within a week and was completed over parts of 2 days. Nick was responsive and personable and answered all my questions. He provided me photos of the work for my files. Thank you so much.Posted on Google![]()
