Same-day service is typical for most areas, and emergencies are dispatched immediately.

Liquid barrier treatments are priced by the linear footage of the foundation; bait systems by the number of stations. After a free inspection we quote a flat price with a renewable warranty.

Mud tubes on foundation walls, discarded wings near windows, soft or hollow wood, and tiny pinholes in drywall. Our inspectors check crawlspaces, attics and slab edges across your state.

Yes. Raising the room to 120–135°F for several hours kills bed bugs and eggs in furniture, walls and belongings without chemicals. It's the fastest option for your area apartments and hotels.

Less than you'd think. We send a short prep list — mostly clearing clutter and bagging a few items. Don't move furniture to other rooms; that spreads them.

No. Treatment plus a quality encasement saves the mattress in almost every case.

Droppings size is the fastest tell: mouse droppings are rice-sized, rat droppings are the size of a raisin. Our your state technicians confirm during inspection.

Yes. Trapping alone never solves a rodent problem. Exclusion — sealing gaps, vents, gable ends and foundation openings — is part of every job in your area.

Yes. We remove soiled insulation, sanitize, deodorize and can re-insulate so the smell and the health risk are gone.

We use tamper-resistant stations and snap traps placed out of reach, and we avoid rodenticides where pets or raptors could be exposed.

Raccoons, squirrels, bats, skunks, opossums, groundhogs, armadillos, snakes, birds, moles, beavers, coyotes and dead animal removal — anything causing a nuisance in your area.

Yes. We seal entry points, replace insulation, repair soffits and fascia and sanitize contaminated spaces.

Yes. Animals inside living space, bites, or an animal that appears sick are treated as emergencies — call (877) 948-7968 any hour.

Priced per job including trapping, removal, sealing the entry and a warranty. Attic cleanup and repairs are quoted separately after inspection.

We locate the kits by hand, remove them and reunite them with the mother outside using a heated reunion box. Sealing an attic with babies inside causes damage and a terrible smell.

Yes. Raccoon roundworm eggs in the droppings can infect people and pets. We clean and disinfect attics in your area with proper protective equipment.

Not through the same entry. We seal with steel and back it with a warranty across your state.

A one-way exclusion door lets squirrels leave and blocks re-entry; trapping is used when a door isn't practical. All other gaps are sealed at the same time.

Late winter and late summer, when litters are born. We check for young before sealing.

Yes, frequently. We inspect attic wiring in every your area squirrel job and flag anything that needs an electrician.

Yes. Our exclusion work in your state comes with a warranty against re-entry.

Yes, when done by exclusion outside the maternity season. Bats are protected, so poisoning or trapping is not allowed.

Typically spring before pups are born and late summer after they can fly. We advise on your state's exact window.

Guano can harbor histoplasmosis. We remove it with respirators and HEPA equipment and sanitize the space.

Close the door, open a window if possible and call (877) 948-7968. If anyone was sleeping in the room, contact your doctor about rabies exposure.

Permanent deterrents — netting, spikes, shock track and ledge modifications — plus removal of nests and droppings. Repellents alone rarely work.

Most your state customers see an 85–90% reduction after the first treatment, improving over the season.

Yes. One-time event treatments are applied 24–48 hours before the date.

Store-bought sprays kill foragers and cause the colony to split. Baits carried back to the queen end the colony. Our your state programs include follow-ups until the trail is gone.

They don't eat wood but they hollow damp wood for nests. Left alone in your area homes they cause real structural damage and point to a leak.

Yes. We use gel baits and crack-and-crevice applications, not broadcast spraying, in kitchens and living areas.

Same day in most of your area. Nests near doors, decks or play areas are prioritized.
