Pest Control in New Mexico

New Mexico's desert brings its own pest calendar, and one of the more visible parts of it plays out each fall when male tarantulas leave their burrows across the southern part of the state, from around Las Cruces through the Tularosa Basin, wandering in search of mates during a stretch that typically runs from August into October. They're not aggressive and rarely a real concern, but the sight of large spiders crossing roads and yards is enough to prompt calls every year. Less benign are the black widow spiders common in woodpiles, outbuildings, and undisturbed corners of block walls, and in some southern counties, health officials have documented occasional kissing bugs, insects that hide in wall cracks and are known carriers of the parasite that causes Chagas disease. New Mexico's dry climate also lets native harvester ants build large, cleared mounds that show up in yards and along foundations, more a landscaping nuisance than a structural one but persistent once established. Between wandering tarantulas, black widows, and occasional kissing bug activity, what shows up at a New Mexico home varies by both season and location.
