Homes and pests in Dublin

Dublin straddles the Scioto River northwest of Columbus, from the Bridge Street district to Muirfield Village. More than half the homes in ZIP 43016 were built in 2000 or later. The Census counts about 36,979 homes in ZIP 43016 and 43017 (ACS 2020 to 2024).

About 41% of homes here were built in 2000 or later. Newer houses are tighter, but subterranean termites still come up from the soil along slabs and foundations, and new lots next to fields and creeks bring ants and spiders to the door, and mice and stink bugs inside in fall.

Most homes here are owner occupied (59%), so a pest problem is usually yours to arrange, and a termite inspection is worth doing before you buy.

Dublin is its own city, so Columbus 311 and the Columbus Public Health rat program don't cover it. For rodents or insects in or around the house, a licensed private company is the usual route.

The weather sets the calendar. John Glenn airport averages 216 insect-active days a year, termites swarm in spring, mosquito nights run June to August, and mice move in after the first freeze around October 29.

Ask for an inspection

How it works

  1. Tell us what you're seeing. Use the form, or text a photo of the bug or the damage.
  2. A licensed local company calls you back. They ask a few questions and set a time to look.
  3. Ask for an inspection and a written price. Nothing is treated until you say yes.

Questions people ask

Do you cover all of Dublin?

Yes, including ZIP 43016 and 43017. The company confirms your address when they call.

How soon can someone come out?

It depends on the company's schedule and the problem. Say in your request if it's urgent, like wasps inside the house or a bat in a bedroom.

Do I get a price first?

Ask for one. Licensed companies can inspect and quote before treating. If you only want a price, pick that option in the form.

Who licenses pest control in Ohio?

The Ohio Department of Agriculture. A pest control business needs a pesticide business license, and the person treating your home needs a commercial applicator license in the right category. You can look up applicators on the ODA website.
