Benton, the seat of Saline County, was laid out in 1836 around the square where the 1902 courthouse stands today. A few blocks away, the Gann Row Historic District holds thirteen homes built between the 1880s and the 1920s. Most of the city came later. Bauxite mining, which supplied the ore for aluminum, helped grow Benton from about 3,500 people in 1940 to nearly 17,700 by 1980, and new subdivisions are still going up along I-30. Under many of the older houses is a crawl space, a low, open gap below the floor that few people look into, so mice and brown recluse spiders can settle there unseen.
The Saline River runs along the edge of town, with a boat and kayak launch at Lyle Park and a 3.4-mile paved trail at Riverside Park. Hurricane Creek feeds Hurricane Lake, a 332-acre reservoir that Alcoa dammed in the early 1940s. The neighborhood around it became part of Benton in 1999. Shady creek banks and the woods along the river give mosquitoes and ticks cover close to backyards. Mosquitoes here usually start biting in spring and keep at it until the first frost.
RIDD provides residential and commercial pest control across all of Benton, in both 72015 and 72019. Our Little Rock branch is about 25 miles up I-30 and covers Benton homes on both sides of the interstate.
Services
Pest Control Services We Offer in Benton
RIDD provides the following services to Benton residents and businesses. Each links to a full service page with detailed information, pricing, and booking.
- 01
General Pest Control
Ants and roaches often reach Benton kitchens and bathrooms from below, along pipes that come up through the floor. Visits come every three months or every other month and cover the eaves, the roof edge that hangs over the walls, which many companies leave out. Starting at $49/month.
- 02
Ant Control
Fire ant mounds show up in sunny Benton lawns and in the bare dirt around new construction off I-30. We treat each mound and the colony below it, and inside, the small ants that trail along counters.
- 03
Spider Control
In Benton, brown recluse spiders live in the crawl spaces under older homes and get into closets and storage boxes. Our professionals treat inside along baseboards and closet floors, then outside along the foundation and crawl space vents, where recluses come and go.
- 04
Mosquito, Tick & Flea Control
Homes that back up to the Saline River or the woods around Hurricane Lake see mosquitoes and ticks for months. We spray under shrub leaves and the brush at the tree line, where both rest out of the sun, and reapply through the warm months.
- 05
Rodent Control
Cold nights send mice into Benton garages, where a bag of pet food or birdseed keeps them fed. We find how they get in, set bait stations (small locked boxes that hold bait), snap traps, and sticky traps, then point out the openings worth closing up.
- 06
Wasp & Hornet Control
Paper wasps hang nests under Benton porch ceilings and behind shutters, and yellowjackets nest underground in open lawns. We take down active nests and treat the porch ceiling and shutters so new ones are less likely to start there.

Common questions
Pest Control FAQs for Benton Residents
Do you service all of Benton?
Yes. RIDD covers all of Benton, including zip codes 72015 and 72019. Pricing and services are the same in every part of the city.
Can you treat yards near Hurricane Lake and the Saline River for mosquitoes?
Yes. Mosquito, Tick & Flea Control covers lakefront and riverside lots the same as any other Benton yard. On a yard that runs down to Hurricane Lake or the Saline River, we spray the shrubs and shaded brush along the back of the lot, where mosquitoes wait out the day.
Is pricing the same in Benton as in RIDD's other markets?
Yes. RIDD charges the same rates across its whole service area. Pest 4 starts at $49/month, Pest 6 at $69/month, and RIDD Package 4 at $89/month. There are no travel fees, and every plan comes with our 100% satisfaction guarantee, backed by free re-services.
Why are fire ants so common in Benton yards?
Saline County falls inside the federal imported fire ant quarantine, which means the ants are well established here. New queens fly out of established colonies to start mounds of their own, so a yard next to an untreated lot can keep getting new ones.
