Menasha, WI
Mid State Pest Control delivers fast, reliable pest control for Menasha homes and businesses. Located at the junction of the Fox River and Lake Winnebago, Menasha's waterfront setting brings unique pest challenges we know how to solve.
From the historic downtown district to newer residential developments near the lake, our licensed technicians protect Menasha properties from ants, rodents, wasps, mosquitoes, and more — with a satisfaction guarantee.
Fox Cities Waterfront Pest Pressure
Menasha sits where the Fox River meets Lake Winnebago, and that waterfront geography creates consistent pest activity throughout the year:
- Spring: Ant colonies emerge in Menasha's older downtown foundations and riverside properties.
- Summer: Wasps and yellow jackets nest in eaves, parks, and along the river and lake trails.
- Summer: Mosquitoes thrive near the lakefront and in low-lying, moisture-prone yards.
- Fall: Rodents move from Smith Park and waterfront marshlands into homes and businesses.
- Year-round: Spiders, silverfish, and centipedes are common in Menasha's humid lakefront properties.
"Menasha has a wonderful small-city feel with big lakefront pest challenges. We help homeowners and businesses keep their properties pest-free so they can enjoy everything this community has to offer."

Historic Appleton Home — Full Mouse Eradication
A family in a 1920s Appleton home reported mice in the kitchen and attic for over two months. They had tried store-bought traps and bait with no success — the mice kept coming back. Our inspection found multiple entry points: gaps around the foundation, a broken vent screen in the attic, and a sewer line penetration in the basement.
Oshkosh Restaurant — Wasp Nest Removal & Prevention
A busy outdoor patio restaurant in downtown Oshkosh was losing customers due to aggressive yellow jacket activity around dining tables and garbage areas. Three nests were found in the eaves and one underground nest near the patio entrance. The restaurant was at risk of health code violations and negative reviews during peak season.
Waupaca Cabin — Bed Bug Eradication
A family discovered bed bugs in their Waupaca lake cabin after returning from a vacation. The infestation had spread to two bedrooms and the living room sofa. They had already discarded a mattress and a couch before calling us, worried the problem was beyond DIY solutions. The cabin was rented to vacationers starting in three weeks.
New London Homeowner — Carpenter Ant Colony Elimination
A homeowner noticed piles of sawdust-like material near a window sill and heard faint rustling sounds inside the wall at night. Our inspection revealed a mature carpenter ant colony nesting in water-damaged wood around a poorly sealed bathroom window. The colony had been active for an estimated two years, with satellite nests in the attic.
Shawano Farmhouse — Bat Colony Exclusion
A family on a rural Shawano property had a colony of over 50 bats roosting in their attic for several years. The bats were entering through gaps in the soffit and fascia. Guano accumulation was creating odor and health concerns, and the family was worried about rabies exposure to their children and pets. The situation required careful handling due to bat protection regulations.
Clintonville Apartment Building — German Cockroach Program
A 12-unit apartment building in Clintonville had a German cockroach infestation spreading between units through shared wall voids and plumbing chases. Multiple tenants had complained, and two units had severe infestations. Previous pest control attempts by a national chain had failed due to improper product rotation and inadequate treatment of wall voids.
