We offer insecticide spraying (watering) services on the exterior siding of homes, businesses and institutional buildings.

Spraying of insecticide on the exterior siding
The insecticide products we use are certified and registered against the infestation of ants, spiders, and other insect pests. They comply with current government standards. These products are not toxic to humans or your pets. In addition, we target the places to be watered.
The presence of ants, spiders and other insects that sneak into strategic places, especially through small holes and cracks at the bottom of interior walls and exterior walls, through window frames. The same applies to underdoors with poorly sealed cracks, by the hole in the telephone wire, by holes in your heaters, by cracks in the foundation and by rotten wood.
Seasonal watering to get rid of harmful insects and bugs
Nova Extermination treats insect pests by spraying insecticide (watering) around homes and businesses (at the bottom) as well as in certain targeted areas. This ensures that your home has an insect-free building all summer long, but also all winter long.
It is recommended to have an insect treatment carried out at the very beginning of spring and then in the fall, because insects tend to want to enter the house when the coolness arrives. And since the product does not withstand freezing temperatures, it is necessary to treat against insects every year.
Can spiders in my garden invade my house?
Yes, some species of spiders can migrate from the outside to the inside of your home in search of food, shelter, or in response to environmental changes. Spiders are opportunistic creatures, and if they find openings or cracks in walls, doors, windows, or any other access, they can get inside. Some species of spiders can also be accidentally carried indoors by objects, plants, or other materials that come from outside.
What extermination methods does Nova Extermination use to get rid of spiders safely?
At Nova Extermination, we prioritize safety and respect for the environment in our spider extermination practices. We use extermination methods that are both effective and safe for your family and pets. Rather than resorting to harsh chemicals, we prefer more environmentally friendly solutions, such as the use of natural insecticides, plant-based repellents or mechanical methods to trap spiders.
What are the risks of a spider infestation related to overwatering?
Overwatering can lead to the creation of moist environments, which can be attractive to some spider species. Spiders feed on insects, and a moist environment can attract a larger amount of insects, increasing the potential for spider infestation in your yard and inside your home.
To prevent an infestation from overwatering, it is essential to carefully monitor your watering practices. Nova Extermination can advise you on how much water your plants need and recommend proper watering schedules to maintain a balanced humidity level.
Our Seasonal Outdoor Processing Territory
Perimeter barrier treatment is mainly carried out between May and September, on the South Shore and the Richelieu Valley. In Longueuil, the triplexes of Old Longueuil and the bungalows of Saint-Hubert receive perimeter treatment targeted at ants and earwigs. The exterior treatment in Brossard mainly covers the terraces and soffits of single-family homes in sectors A to R. Throughout the South Shore, we apply a protocol in two trips spaced 30 days apart. In Boucherville and the Pierre-Boucher sector, the foundations bordering the national park require products that are approved and safe for the surrounding wildlife. To the east, service to Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu and the Richelieu Valley mainly targets the gardens of Old Saint-Jean. In Saint-Hyacinthe and the Maskoutaine suburbs, our technicians frequently treat the surroundings of agri-food silos and warehouses.
Did you know?
Some spiders in Quebec can give birth to more than 500 spiders each summer, a number that is indeed exponential!
Spiders are very often found on decks, fences, exterior siding, and around windows and doors. And even if you remove the webs, the spiders remake them every time. These insects reproduce quickly and must be constantly hunted or killed one by one, which becomes a constant task.
With a spider treatment in early spring, you will be free of spiders and their webs for the beautiful months of sunshine! Watering pesticides in the targeted areas will keep your home clean and free of spiders and critters of all kinds!
Once the spider watering has been done, it is recommended to let the product dry for 10 days. Don’t worry if it rains during this drying period. However, if you have plans to pressure wash your exterior siding during this period, it is more reasonable to wait 10 days before starting the spider spraying process.
TREATMENT TO KILL ANTS IN THE GARDEN
If you have an anthill in your garden or on your property, our team of ant exterminators will be able to spray an effective insecticide to quickly exterminate the colony. It is important to know that ants are social insects that form colonies that can proliferate quickly in your home or garden. There are several species of ants, black ants, winged ants, carpenter ants.
This treatment to kill ants works very effectively against ant infestation in the garden or on your property. However, it does not affect the garden itself or the lawn around the ant colony site. If you have an anthill on your property, you should know that carpenter ants are the most common species in Quebec.
These ants try by all means to get inside homes and businesses when the cool weather arrives (late autumn). They then create satellite nests everywhere: between walls, in the attic, under floors, etc. Carpenter ants are the most devastating to the load-bearing structure of your home, as they eat away at the damp wood beams. You should then spray the perimeter of your house (at the bottom) with a pesticide to prevent them from entering by eliminating each ant colony.
Is there a natural outdoor ant treatment?
There are amazing benefits of essential oils and lemon, being natural repellents, in controlling carpenter ant infestations. With their repellent and insecticidal properties, they can prove to be an environmentally friendly and safe alternative to keep carpenter ants away.
Our team of experts uses a judicious combination of specific essential oils, carefully selected for their effectiveness. This strategy has been put in place to create protective barriers around vulnerable areas of your home or workplace.
CAULKING HOLES AND CRACKS
Before spraying the exterior of your home or business with pesticides, our exterminators will offer to caulk holes and cracks. These holes and cracks could allow insects to enter your home or business (even a mouse can squeeze through a hole as small as a 10 cent!). The most effective method to prevent insects or mice from infiltrating your home or business is to make sure that they can no longer sneak in.

Frequently Asked Questions: Exterior Treatment
What is the perimeter insecticidal barrier outdoor treatment?
This treatment creates a protective barrier by applying a registered insecticide around the exterior perimeter of the building: foundations, door and window frames, curbs and access points. It aims to repel and eliminate crawling insects before they enter the house. Our technicians apply it on the South Shore and in Montérégie.
Which insects are targeted at the perimeter insecticidal barrier?
It mainly targets crawling insects such as ants, spiders, earwigs, woodlice and centipedes that seek to enter from around the building. By treating the exterior entrance areas, their presence inside is greatly reduced. This is a preventive measure appreciated in Longueuil or Boucherville.
At what time of year should this treatment be applied?
The treatment is particularly effective in the spring and summer, when insect activity is at its peak. Maintenance applications throughout the season extend protection, as weather can reduce the effect of the barrier. Our technicians will recommend a frequency that is appropriate for your situation.
Is the outdoor treatment safe for my family and pets?
We use certified products that are applied in a targeted manner outdoors, according to CNESST label guidelines and standards. A short drying time is generally recommended before frequenting the treated areas. Our technicians inform you of the precautions to follow in Brossard or Saint-Hubert.
Do you offer a warranty on the insecticidal barrier?
We aim for sustainable results evaluated on a case-by-case basis, without promising an absolute guarantee, because rain, watering and weather alter the barrier. Maintenance applications are often required to maintain protection. Our technicians will advise you on the ideal frequency for your terrain.
What is the cost of a perimeter outdoor treatment?
The price is established on the basis of an evaluation, depending on the surface area of the perimeter, the type of building and the level of infestation. An appraisal in Montérégie allows for an accurate estimate. It is a paid service carried out by certified technicians.
