  • How much does pest control service cost?
    Unfortunatly, there is not a straight forward answer to this question because everyones property is unique. While we use your homes square footage as a base, it is best to have an inspector stop by for a consoltation so we can tailor a service that is going to satisfy all your home's needs.

    We offer Monthly, Bi-monthly, and Quarterly scheduled services. During our standard base service we will spray around the exterior of your home to keep ants, spiders, and other typical general pests away.

    Usually customers can begin seeing results in the first couple days after treatment. However, in some instances it may take up to a week (7 days) or longer to see the full results of a treatment or treatments. Results depend heavily on the target pests, the size of infestation, and other enviromental factors.
  • How come I see more bugs after my pest control service service?
    In some cases, customers may see an increase in bug activity after we perform a treatment. This is because the chemical products are working and pushing the insects out of their hiding places. This is actually a good sign because it means that the treatment got into the areas bugs live, the bugs have been exposed to the product, and in the process of dying. After a about a week you will see fewer insects.

  • How long does pest control last?
    We get this question a lot, and it is a fair question since you are paying good money for our professional service. Unfortunately, there is no striaght forward answer. The effective length of a service is dependant on serveral factors, including type of pests, weather, sprinkler watering patterns, and even the amount of sun on your home (sunlight breaks down chemicals.) When deciding which service frequency is best for your home, here is our advice: - Monthly service will get you the best results because we are putting down new chemical before previous treatment can be broken down by the elements. - Bi-monthly service gets you the best value for you money since it offers some savings, but keep in mind that by the time your next treatment is due the previous treatment may have already been washed away or made ineffective by the elements. - Quareterly service is the most economical, but any product used is most likely been made ineffective by the elements and you may see insects before your next scheduled service. If, you are still unsure of what service frequency you would like, give us a call and we would love to have the oppotunity to help you decide which service option may be best for you home or facility.

    In most cases trapping alone will not get rid of your rat or rodent problem because there is still an open access point for new rats to enter. So, while you might see some immediate relief, it is likely that other rats move in. It is important to seal up the entry points so that the rats or mice cannot re-enter the structure. During a FREE assessment of your property a licnesed technician will be able to asses if your problem requires proofing, or if it is a situation that may be easily solved with trapping alone.
