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.

There are several advantages to signing up for year-round pest control services. Preventing a problem is always less of a hassle than solving one, but year-round preventive services can also save you money in the long-run, especially for destructive pests like termites. It’s also important to remember that while certain pests have different active seasons, pests can be a problem at any time of year - so having a year-round protection plan in place gives you peace of mind that your home is secure.

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 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.

Your choice of a pest control company should be determined by a number of factors, but some questions to ask include: Are the technicians licensed? How many years has the company been in business? Will the company be able to protect my furniture, pets, and belongings?
