Prevent Costly Damage Before It Starts
Most pests are "silent destroyers" that remain hidden until the damage is already done. Rodents can gnaw through electrical wiring—a leading cause of house fires—while termites can compromise the structural integrity of your home without ever being seen. An ongoing treatment plan focuses on proactive prevention rather than reactive fixes, creating a permanent protective barrier that saves you from the massive, unexpected expenses of emergency repairs.
Protect Your Family’s Health and Safety
Pests are more than just a nuisance; they are significant health hazards. Cockroaches and rodents carry a variety of pathogens, including Salmonella and E. coli, and their droppings can trigger severe asthma and allergy attacks, particularly in children. Regular professional visits ensure that these disease-carrying intruders never have the chance to establish a colony, keeping your living environment sanitary and your loved ones safe from preventable illnesses.
Break the Breeding Cycle for Good
A one-time treatment might kill the pests you see today, but it rarely accounts for the eggs hidden in your walls or the new invaders waiting for the seasons to change. Different pests emerge at different times of the year, and their life cycles are incredibly fast. A scheduled treatment plan provides continuous coverage that adapts to seasonal shifts, effectively breaking the breeding cycle and ensuring that once the pests are gone, they stay gone for good.
Is The Treatment Safe For My Children And Pets?
This is our most common question. We use EPA-approved products that are applied in a targeted manner. Once the product has dried (usually 1.5 to 3 hours), it is perfectly safe for children and pets to return to the treated areas. For specific pets like birds or fish, we recommend extra precautions such as covering tanks or moving cages.
Do I Need To Leave My House During The Service?
For most general exterior and interior sprays, you do not need to leave. However, we ask that you remain in a different room while the technician is applying the product. For intensive treatments like flea "fogging" or bed bug heat treatments, you will typically need to vacate for 4 to 6 hours.
What do I need to do to prepare for your visit?
Preparation ensures the treatment is effective. We recommend: Clear the perimeter: Move furniture and toys about 12 inches away from baseboards. Kitchen: Clear countertops and put away open food. Floors: Give your floors a good vacuum or mop before we arrive.
Why Am I Seeing More Bugs After you Sprayed?
This is actually a sign of success! It’s called "The Flush-Out." The treatment irritates pests in their hiding spots (walls, cracks, crevices), causing them to scramble out. You may see an increase in activity for 3 to 7 days before they succumb to the product and disappear.
How long will it take for the pests to be gone?
It depends on the pest. Ants and spiders usually decline within 24–48 hours. For more "social" pests like cockroaches or bed bugs, it can take 2 to 3 weeks to fully disrupt their breeding cycle and see total elimination.
When can I mop or clean my floors again?
To avoid washing away the protective barrier, wait at least 48 hours before mopping. When you do mop, try to stay 2 inches away from the baseboards. The product needs to stay on that "entry point" to keep killing bugs that crawl across it.
Do you offer a warranty or guarantee?
Yes. Most services come with a 30 to 90-day warranty (or longer for specific pests like termites). If you see the same pest return within that window, we will return to provide a "touch-up" service for free.
Why should I hire a pro instead of using store-bought sprays?
Store-bought products are often repellents, which just scatter the colony and make the problem harder to solve. Professional-grade products are often non-repellents and "transferable," meaning the insects carry the poison back to the nest to kill the queen and the entire colony at the source.
