1. How do I know if I have mice or rats in my home?
Signs include droppings, gnaw marks on wires or furniture, scratching sounds in walls or ceilings, and small holes along baseboards or entry points. Early detection is key — call us for a professional inspection.
2. What is rodent exclusion, and why is it important?
Rodent exclusion involves sealing all entry points to prevent mice or rats from entering your home. It’s crucial because removal alone doesn’t stop new rodents from coming back.
3. How can I prevent termite damage?
Keep wood and mulch away from your home’s foundation, fix leaks promptly, and schedule regular termite inspections. Early treatment prevents costly structural damage.
4. How long does a bed bug treatment take?
Treatment times vary depending on the severity of the infestation, but most homes require 1–3 visits. We also provide education on how to prevent re-infestation.
5. Do you use safe treatments for pets and children?
Yes — we use EPA-approved, pet- and family-safe products whenever possible and provide guidance on keeping your home safe during treatment.
6. Why should I replace insulation after a rodent infestation?
Rodents can damage insulation with nesting materials and urine, which creates odors, spreads bacteria, and reduces energy efficiency. Replacing insulation restores a safe, clean, and energy-efficient environment.
7. Can I prevent pests on my own?
While some preventative steps help, like sealing gaps and removing food sources, professional inspections and treatments are the most reliable way to keep pests away long-term.
