Hi-Tech Pest Control

Part of the problem rodents bring comes from what’s left over after they’ve died. Rats and mice have a habit of crawling deep into the walls of homes to make their nests only to die, leaving their bodies, droppings, and other potentially-hazardous biological elements behind. This is why pest management professionals deal with rodents in a process called “exclusion,” ensuring that all the animals are removed as well as anything they brought inside the home with it.

Yes. Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to eliminate. They’re also year-round pests, so they’ll never go out of season and won’t go inactive - the problem will only get worse the longer the infestation is allowed to spread. A professional pest control technician will have the knowledge and tools necessary to find the source of the bed bug infestation and eliminate it completely.

While termites can infest almost any home or structure, homes with wooden foundations are most at risk of giving termites an easy access point to the home. Risk factors for termites include the presence of landscaping and fences near the walls of the home (which can give termites access inside), the age of the home (younger than thirty years are least at-risk for infestation while over seventy years are most at-risk), and the presence of past property damage (the more incidents, the higher the potential for termites).

While every pest is different, some common points of entry include open doors and windows as well as holes in walls, siding, or roofing. Certain pests can even enter through your drains or tunnel into your roof to get inside. No matter how pests are getting into your home, a pest management professional should be able to conduct a thorough inspection of the property, identify problem areas and eliminate any pests present.

No. Modern pest control methods are carefully designed to be harmless for people and pets while working hard against the pests they target.

Whether you need to be present as a homeowner depends on the service you’re receiving. For general pest control and termite control, the homeowner generally does not have to be home. For specialty services like rodent removal, the homeowner will generally be needed to allow the technician inside to treat the problem.

While a number of supposed pest solutions can be found on store shelves, pest problems in homes are always best left to the professionals due to the unintended consequences that can come from misuse. Deviating from the warning label even slightly can lead to problems for people and pets, or could lead to sacrificed effectiveness. Improper use or improper mixing could inadvertently make the problem worse. Store-bought pest control also does not account for other hazards pests leave in homes, such as droppings and nest materials. Pest control companies train their technicians to specialize in using pest control methodically and creating customized pest control programs tailored to specifically what your home needs. A knowledgeable pest control technician can remove the entire pest problem from your home and clean up anything the pest left behind.

Yes. If you’re a homeowner, professional pest control is a necessity, both for preventing pest problems and removing active infestations. If you’re already suffering a pest infestation, it may be too late to deal with the problem on your own using DIY methods. A professional service can target the specific pest pressures you’re facing using tools and equipment not available to the average home or business owner. A licensed and certified pest control professional can also approach the problem with a wealth of knowledge about what pests you’re facing, where they’re commonly found, and signs of activity you might not be aware of - helping you get a better, more effective treatment and taking steps to stop the problem from reappearing. Professional pest control is an excellent investment to ensure the long-term comfort of your home.
