FAQ

  • FAQ Page

    • There are hundreds of readily available, store-bought pest products on the market. But not all pest treatments are created equally. Often, over-the-counter products are laden with harsh chemicals and aren’t customized to your specific infestation, so you might end up spending money on solutions that both don’t work and can be harmful to your environment.

      When you hire professionals, you are receiving:

      • A vast knowledge base from certified technicians
      • The most advanced, commercial-grade treatments that are safe for your environment, family, and pets
      • Ongoing treatments to ensure a pest-free property, year-round
      • Advice on how to avoid creating environments that support pest infestations
      • Guarantees that protect your investment
    • Unfortunately, even the most careful homeowners or property managers can experience pest infestations. Many times, pests invade your home simply because it is warm, so it has nothing to do with whether or not your property is clean. Our advice is to ensure your windows and doors are free from cracks and that your weather stripping is intact.

    • Because we personalize every treatment to your specific needs, there is no one-size-fits-all timeframe. However, during our initial inspection, we give you a free estimate and timeline, so you know exactly what to expect.

    • There is no off-season for pests, so we don’t take an off-season either. Many pests, including rodents and cockroaches, will use the warmth of your home to stay safe during the winter months, leading to headaches for homeowners. Having year-round, preventative pest control treatments is a great way to combat this.

    • Absolutely! As a QualityPro Certified company—one of the first in our area—we utilize pest control treatments that are both effective and safe for your environment, family, and furry loved ones.

    • This can depend greatly on the type of pest we are treating. While in some cases, you’ll notice a difference in as little as a day or two, some treatments are designed to target breeding and feeding habits, so you might not notice a decline in activity for a couple of weeks. However, we know how unnerving pest issues can be, so we always walk you through suspected treatment times, so you know what to expect.


    • We do! In addition to a full suite of customized ongoing treatments, we offer one-off treatment solutions to help with isolated infestations.
