Pest Solutions

The pests I handle most around the home, what each one needs and how I keep it from coming back.

Solutions

Matched to the Pest, Not the Calendar

There is no single treatment that suits every pest. Ants follow scent trails, roaches want warmth and moisture, and a mouse only needs a gap the width of a thumb. Each one calls for a different approach, so every service below is built around how that pest actually lives.

Everything begins with the inspection described further down this page. The products and the placements change with what I find there, and you get a plain explanation of both before I start.

Services

What I Handle

Insect Control

Ants, flies, silverfish and other crawling or flying insects traced back to the nest or breeding spot. Trails are baited where they begin and the gaps along baseboards and windows are closed.

Rodent Removal

Mice and rats are trapped along the routes they already use, then the openings behind appliances, under soffits and around pipes are sealed so new ones cannot follow.

Cockroach Elimination

Gel baits and dusts placed in the warm, damp gaps where roaches hide and breed. Follow up checks confirm the population is gone rather than hiding somewhere new.

Termite Treatment

Hollow wood, mud tubes and shed wings point to activity. I confirm how far it reaches, treat the colony and the soil it travels through, and show you the moisture that drew it.

Bee Elimination

Nests under eaves, inside wall voids and beneath decks removed at the right time of day, with the spot treated and sealed so another colony does not settle in.

Bed Bug Removal

Mattress seams, frames, headboards and nearby cracks treated in sequence, with clear guidance on laundering and preparation so the biting finally stops.

Where Pests Usually Get In

Almost every infestation has a doorway. These are the spots I check first on any property, because sealing them is what keeps a treatment from becoming a repeat visit.

Get Started
  • Gaps beneath exterior doors and garage thresholds
  • Pipe and utility openings under sinks and behind appliances
  • Loose soffits, vents and gaps along the roofline
  • Mulch, woodpiles and soil resting against the siding
  • Cardboard, clutter and stored items pushed along walls
  • Standing water and slow leaks that keep an area damp

What Happens During a Service

Three steps from the first sighting to a pest-free home, each one explained as it happens.

Find the Source

I check the spots pests favour, from under sinks to the attic, and work out what you have and where it gets in.

Treat the Problem

Baits, dusts or sprays go only where that pest lives. You get clear timing on when each treated spot is safe again.

Block the Return

Gaps get sealed and I point out the damp corner or woodpile that drew them, so the same pest does not come back.

Getting the Home Ready

A little preparation makes the inspection quicker and the treatment more thorough. None of it is heavy work, and I take care of everything else once I arrive.

  • Clear counters and pull small items a step away from walls where you saw activity
  • Keep food sealed and lift pet bowls off the floor during the visit
  • Note where and when you saw pests so I know where to begin
  • Leave access to the attic, crawl space and utility areas
