Call PestGuardians for pest control help in Louisiana, from New Orleans and Baton Rouge to bayou, river, and Gulf Coast communities.
Call (844) 924-1337Louisiana has one of the country's most serious termite stories because of the Formosan subterranean termite. This invasive species was first identified in the state in the 1960s and, according to the existing LSU AgCenter-focused research on this page, has spread to more than 40 parishes. Its colonies can be much larger than native subterranean termite colonies already found statewide.
New Orleans has operated areawide termite management programs for decades to help protect the French Quarter's historic wood structures. Louisiana's warm, humid climate can also stretch termite swarming earlier and longer than colder states typically see. In the southern parishes, that same climate can keep mosquitoes active through much of the year, especially where standing water, drainage issues, and dense vegetation are present.
Louisiana structural pest control is regulated by the Structural Pest Control Commission, a board under the Department of Agriculture and Forestry. Louisiana regulatory information notes that this is separate from the Horticulture Commission. Instead of one general credential, the Commission treats phases of work separately, including general pest control, termite control, commercial vertebrate control, structural fumigation, commodity fumigation, and ship fumigation.
Wildlife-related services may sit outside that structural pest control system. Services such as Bat Removal, Raccoon Removal, Squirrel Removal, Snake Removal, Pigeon & Bird Control, and Wildlife Removal can involve a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator permit from the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. Louisiana regulatory information notes that a valid state trapping license and hunting license may also be required.

Louisiana has long dealt with the Formosan subterranean termite, an invasive species first identified in the state in the 1960s. Its large colonies can create serious wood-damage concerns, especially in warm and humid areas.
Warm, humid conditions can lengthen termite swarming periods and keep mosquitoes active for much of the year in southern parishes. Moisture, nearby water, drainage, and building age can all affect what a property experiences.
Confirm which licensing phase applies to the work, such as general pest control, termite control, commercial vertebrate control, structural fumigation, commodity fumigation, or ship fumigation. Confirm the applicable credentials for the requested work before booking.
