Inspection and treatment choices for active infestations, evidence of activity, and risk areas around the structure.

04

Assessment and treatment planning based on pest confirmation, affected areas, preparation, and follow-up needs.

Clues around the home

Signs It May Be Time for an Inspection

  • Droppings, gnaw marks, tracks, or scratching sounds
  • Discarded wings, mud tubes, or damaged wood
  • Live insects appearing repeatedly in kitchens or bathrooms
  • Nests, webs, trails, or unexplained bites
  • Gaps around pipes, doors, vents, rooflines, or foundations
Keep people and pets safe: Do not disturb stinging-insect nests or wildlife. Follow all product labels and discuss children, pets, pregnancy, allergies, and sensitivities with the provider before treatment.

How Pest Service Typically Begins

Describe the activity

Note where and when you see pests, how often, and whether the issue is getting worse.

Inspect and identify

The provider may inspect active areas, possible entry points, moisture, food sources, and structural conditions.

Review the plan

Ask about preparation, products, treatment areas, re-entry time, follow-up, prevention, pricing, and guarantees.

Pest Control Questions

Is one treatment always enough?

No. Some concerns may be handled in one visit, while others require monitoring, follow-up, exclusion, sanitation changes, or an ongoing plan.

Are pest treatments safe around children and pets?

Safety depends on the product and application. Tell the provider about occupants and pets, review the label, and follow all preparation and re-entry instructions.

Can someone remove wildlife?

Some providers offer wildlife services, but availability and legal requirements vary. Describe the animal and location when calling; do not approach or handle it.
