Some pests need a dedicated program

Bed bugs, fleas, and German roaches don't respond to general pest control, and any company telling you otherwise is selling you a re-infestation. These get their own targeted programs, quoted individually by severity and scope.

The three toughest residential pests

DIFFICULTY: ★★★★★

Bed Bugs

The most stressful pest there is, and the one with the most snake oil sold around it. Our programs combine thorough inspection, targeted treatment, and follow-up verification.

  • Detailed inspection and prep guidance
  • Treatment series, not a one-and-done spray
  • Follow-up to confirm elimination
DIFFICULTY: ★★★★

Fleas

Fleas cycle through egg, larva, pupa, and adult stages, and most treatments only kill adults. Ours breaks the full cycle, coordinated with your pet's vet treatment.

  • Interior treatment targeting all life stages
  • Growth regulators to stop the next generation
  • Guidance on timing with pet treatments
DIFFICULTY: ★★★★

German Roaches

The roach that general sprays make worse by scattering them. German roach programs use gel baits, growth regulators, and multiple visits, so it actually gets fixed.

  • Gel baiting where they live and breed
  • Growth regulators to collapse the population
  • Multi-visit program with monitoring
Why Separate?

Why these aren't in the quarterly plan

Because they'd be badly served by it. These pests need intensive, multi-visit programs with different products, different methods, and follow-up verification. Rolling them into a general plan is how big companies end up doing them poorly.

We quote each job individually based on severity and scope. That means an honest inspection first, a real price second, and a program built for your actual situation. No guessing, no one-size-fits-all.

HONEST MODE: ON

We'll tell you the truth

If what you have isn't actually bed bugs (it often isn't), we'll tell you. If a smaller treatment will solve it, we'll quote that instead. The assessment is honest even when it costs us the bigger job.

Knowledge Base

Specialty questions

How much does bed bug treatment cost?
It genuinely depends on severity and the size of the affected area, which is why we quote after an inspection instead of guessing over the phone. We'll give you a real number before any work starts.
Can't I just bomb the house with foggers?
Please don't. Foggers scatter bed bugs and roaches deeper into walls and neighboring rooms, making professional treatment harder. It's the single most common way small problems become big ones.
How many visits does a German roach program take?
Typically a series of visits over several weeks. Gel baits and growth regulators need time to work through the population. We monitor progress at each visit and adjust.
Do I need to leave during treatment?
Depends on the treatment. We'll give you detailed prep and re-entry instructions in advance, so you know exactly what to expect.
