General pest control covers common pests like ants, spiders, earwigs, silverfish, and more. It typically includes interior inspection and exterior perimeter treatments to prevent future activity.

Most homes do well with quarterly service, though heavy-activity areas may need monthly or bi-monthly treatments.

Yes. Licensed professionals use EPA-approved products applied in targeted areas to ensure safety once dry.

Weather, environmental changes, and new entry points can introduce new pests. Routine maintenance keeps barriers active.

For general treatments, no. Some specialty treatments (fleas, heavy German roaches, bed bugs) may require temporary leave.

Most companies accept credit cards, cash, and online payments. Many offer service plans or prepay discounts.

Give our office a call! There’s no additional charge to get your technician out to treat for any issues that are covered under your service agreement.

Since every situation is different, our goal at Best is to make sure we take the homeowners needs , pest problem, and environmental factors into consideration when providing our free estimates.

Inside service is treated on an “as needed” basis, we preform mainly an X-Ter Ban service to try and eliminate pest problems from their outside source and reduce the amount of pesticides in the home.

German roaches are small, light brown, and usually found in kitchens/bathrooms. Larger roaches (like American or palmetto bugs) are commonly found in basements or drains.

You may need to empty cabinets, declutter, clean crumbs/grease, store food, and follow the prep list provided.

Light cases may be gone in 1–2 weeks, while heavy infestations often take 4–6 weeks and require follow-ups.

Yes. Subterranean termites can cause extensive structural damage and often go undetected until the problem is severe.

Mud tubes, bubbling paint, hollow-sounding wood, and discarded wings near windowsills are common indicators.

Drywood termites live inside dry wood and don’t need soil contact; subterranean termites live underground and build mud tubes to enter structures.

Many companies offer free basic inspections; however, real-estate/WDI reports may have a small fee.

Liquid treatments can last 5–10 years. Bait systems require ongoing monitoring.

You can lower risk by reducing moisture, repairing leaks, and keeping wood away from soil — but full protection requires professional treatment.

Signs of acticve infestations are seeing dead or alive termites , mud tubes on walls or foundations, hollowed out wood , and piles of termites droppings (frass).

A fumigation only kills the targeted pest, it does not make the damage go away. Vibratons in the homes can knock loose old damage if no repairs are made after.

Rodent control includes inspection, sealing entry points, setting traps or bait stations, and follow-up monitoring.

Droppings, scratching noises, gnaw marks, nesting materials, grease trails, or foul odors indicate activity.

No. Rodents reproduce rapidly and require trapping, exclusion, and sanitation to eliminate.

Mice can enter through dime-sized holes; rats through quarter-sized openings. Common entry points include vents, roof gaps, and foundation cracks.

Many pest control companies handle wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, bats, and opossums, including trapping and exclusion.

Most lawns need fertilization every 6–8 weeks during the growing season, typically 4–7 treatments per year depending on your grass type and climate.

Yes. Once the product has fully dried or been watered in, it’s safe for pets and children to return to the lawn.

Fertilization strengthens your lawn, making it thicker and more resistant to weeds. Combined with pre-emergent and weed control treatments, it significantly reduces weed growth.

Brown or thin areas can result from drought stress, pests, disease, compacted soil, or lack of nutrients. A lawn care technician can diagnose the issue and recommend a treatment plan.

Yes. Watering helps activate the fertilizer and ensures nutrients reach the root zone. Your technician will tell you whether to water immediately or wait until later in the day.

Technicians apply a targeted mist to shrubs, foliage, and shaded areas where mosquitoes breed and rest. This reduces the population and creates a protective barrier.

Most treatments last about 3–4 weeks, depending on weather conditions and mosquito activity in your area.

Yes. Products are applied in controlled amounts and are safe once the treated areas have dried—usually within 30 minutes.

Yes. Many customers notice a significant decrease in mosquito activity within the first 24 hours after treatment.

Eliminate standing water, clean gutters, trim overgrown vegetation, and make sure your yard drains properly. These steps help amplify professional treatments.
