Common Pests in the Agriculture Industry

Understanding which pests pose the greatest threat to your crops, infrastructure, and livestock is essential for effective agricultural pest control. Across Canada, agricultural operations face a diverse range of pest species, each capable of causing significant economic and health impacts if left unmanaged.

At Orkin Canada, we identify and manage all major pest species affecting the grain and agriculture sectors. Whether you operate a conventional farm or follow organic practices, our experts develop custom agri pest management solutions to address these common invaders:

Structural and Crop Pests

Insect pests are the most widespread and damaging agricultural pests. Common crop insect pests include:

  • Aphids: Sap-feeding insects that damage crops and spread plant viruses
  • Armyworms and Cutworms: Caterpillar pests that feed on cereal crops and vegetables
  • Weevils: Notably the grain and rice weevil, which infest stored grain
  • Beetles: Such as the red flour beetle and lesser grain borer
  • Leafhoppers: Transmit plant diseases and reduce crop quality
  • Whiteflies and Thrips: Common in greenhouse and vegetable operations
  • Fruit flies

These pests are targeted through our agriculture pest control in agriculture programs, designed to reduce infestations without harming beneficial species or soil health.

Rodents

Rodents such as rats and mice are a serious concern in grain storage and livestock operations. They consume and contaminate feed, chew through wiring and insulation, and transmit diseases. Our agricultural pest control services include full rodent exclusion, baiting, and monitoring programs.

Birds

Pest birds such as pigeons, starlings, and sparrows create problems by eating seeds, damaging crops, and contaminating equipment and stored products with droppings. Our agriculture bird control programs offer humane, compliant solutions to deter and exclude nuisance birds from your farm or facility.

Flies

Agricultural fly control is critical in dairy, poultry, and swine production. Flies breed rapidly in manure and feed areas, leading to high populations that spread bacteria and irritate animals. We implement fly control using mechanical traps, insect growth regulators, and sanitation guidance to reduce breeding sources and odour control services.

In grain bins and silos, pests like grain beetles, moths, and weevils can destroy large volumes of stored crops. These pests are managed with professional agricultural fumigation services and long-term monitoring to protect product quality and prevent reinfestation.
