Residential Solutions

We know how important it is to live in a safe and beautiful home. We inspect your home, offer advice about any pest control problems, perform an initial treatment to rid your home of any existing pests, and design a maintenance program tailored to your home.

Education and Preventative Steps
We can show you numerous ways to keep pests from disrupting your home, including:

Keeping them homeless

  • Seal cracks and crevices where pests can get into your home.

  • Get rid of stacks of newspaper, papers, bags, and cardboard boxes that make good homes for pests.
Keeping them hungry
  • Keep a tight lid on trash cans and empty them often.

  • Store food in tightly sealed containers.

  • Wipe up spills and crumbs right away.

  • Clean your dirty dishes right after eating.

  • Pests thrive on moisture. Keep them from getting to water by fixing leaks and not leaving dishwater in the sink overnight.
Exterior Perimeter Treatments
A premium residual insecticide is applied concentrating on the entry points and harborage areas for insects and spiders lurking outside your home.  Shrubbery, landscape mulch and rock, siding, and eves are treated to eliminate areas that will harbor spiders and insects close by.

Interior Treatments

Interior areas are inspected and treated specifically for the pests present in your home. A combination of residual insecticides, baits and traps may be used based on your concerns and particular pests.

Roaches and Other Insects
After inspecting and analyzing your situation, we will advise you on household routines that will minimize infestation. In addition, our specialists offer treatments that may include the following:
  • Crack and Crevice Insecticide Application—We utilize residual insecticides for long term control along with aerosols for flushing action to locate roach hiding areas.

  • Bait Placements-Roach baits are placed inside cabinets and behind splash guards and appliances. These baits are made of the preferred food sources of roaches with a high degree of attractiveness.

  • Direct Contact—Chemicals are directly applied to the pests

  • Insect Growth Regulators—These materials are usually added to adulticides and will inhibit the maturity of a particular insect. By inhibiting the maturity of an insect, we keep it from reaching the critical adult stage, thus stopping the life cycle and infestation.
Rodent Control
After a thorough inspection to determine which species we're dealing with, we'll create an effective program to keep your home rodent-free. For more information. 

Ongoing Maintenance
Season after season, your home will be exposed to different types of pests—roaches, ants, spiders, and rodents will all be trying to make a home in yours. To ensure the pests you’ve so carefully controlled don’t return, we would be very happy to offer a regular maintenance program that would fit your unique pest problem. A regular maintenance program, such as a quarterly service, gives us the opportunity to use our experience and tailor the treatments to curtail the seasonal pest population before it becomes a problem for you.
