Cottage Country Pests Play by Different Rules
Muskoka properties live inside the forest, and the forest moves in the moment a building sits quiet. Carpenter ants are the region's signature pest — moist wood, shaded lots and older cottage framing are exactly their habitat, and by the time you see big black ants indoors in spring, the colony has usually been in the structure through a winter or two.
The seasonal rhythm drives everything else: mice move into cottages, bunkies and boathouses every fall when the lake traffic stops; wasps and hornets — including European hornets — build big in the eaves and dock structures through summer; and mosquitoes own the shoreline from May long weekend onward. Whether you're in Bracebridge, Gravenhurst, Huntsville or on the lakes, the right plan covers the season, not just a visit.
Owner-operated and local — our routes run through Muskoka all season.
What Muskoka Calls Us For
Carpenter ant treatments in cottages and year-round homes, nest and satellites, not just the trail — covered on Sani IQ Protect Plus. Fall mouse-proofing for cottages, bunkies and boathouses before close-up: exclusion, sealing and monitored bait so spring opening isn't a cleanup. Wasp and hornet nests in eaves, decks and boathouses — covered nest removal is included on every Sani IQ Protect plan. Mosquito barrier treatments — monthly through the season on Protect Elite, one free event treatment on Protect Plus — for shoreline properties and event weekends.
Ask about our Muskoka Cottage Care program — scheduled visits timed to opening, mid-season and close-up, so the cottage is protected even when you're not there.
What It Costs in Muskoka
Homes in Muskoka are billed after each visit — no monthly fees. Sani IQ Protect is $249 a visit, four visits a year, for homes up to 2,000 sq ft — quarterly service for common ants, household spiders, earwigs, cluster flies, silverfish and wasps (covered nest removal included), an exterior barrier with eave and soffit treatment, free re-service between visits and a photo report after every visit, with rodent prevention included. Cottage close-up and opening visits are scheduled around your season.

Bed bugs, German cockroaches, wildlife and rats are quoted after an inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does pest control cost in Muskoka?
Sani IQ bills every visit after it's done — no monthly fees. Mice inside in Muskoka? The Sani IQ Rodent Program is $445 at the first visit, then $150 a quarter, 12-month warranty. Want the whole house covered? Sani IQ Protect is $249 a visit, four visits a year, rodent prevention included. Mice and insects together? Protect Plus is $249 a visit (six visits). Base prices cover homes up to 2,000 sq ft. Bed bugs, German cockroaches, wildlife and rats are quoted after an inspection.
How do I keep mice out of the cottage over winter?
Seal before you close. Mice enter through gaps you can't see from inside — sill plates, utility penetrations, boathouse framing. Our close-up service seals entry points and sets monitored protection so you open to a clean cottage, not a nest.
Are big black ants in my cottage carpenter ants?
Very likely, and in Muskoka they're structural. Large black ants indoors in spring usually mean a parent or satellite colony in the building's wood. Carpenter ants are covered on Sani IQ Protect Plus ($249 a visit, six visits a year), and treatment targets the nests, not just the foragers you see.
Do you treat for mosquitoes at the lake?
Yes — barrier treatments knock mosquito pressure down for weeks, and many families schedule around long weekends and events. Protect Elite includes monthly treatments through the season; Protect Plus members get one free event treatment.
Do you actually service the lakes, or just the towns?
Both — Bracebridge, Gravenhurst, Huntsville, Port Carling and the lake roads between them. We're based in Barrie, so Muskoka is a regular route, not a special trip.
