Pest Control FAQs
Why isn’t termite damage covered by my insurance?
Because the incidence of termite infestations is so high, most insurance companies simply cannot afford to cover termite damage. A pre-purchase inspection can alert you to any present or past issues and eliminate any costly repairs in the future.
Why can’t I just use an over the counter spray to treat pests myself?
Pests can be remarkably hardy. In fact, many have developed a tolerance to common sprays. It’s also important to understand their characteristics and breeding habits to treat them where they’re nesting. A qualified professional has the equipment and expertise to track down pests at the source and treat them with commercial grade products.
How long does it take for me to see results after treatment?
Depending on the degree of infestation, you should begin to notice a significant reduction in activity in 1 – 2 days. Keep in mind that there could be an increase of activity immediately after treatment. This means their nest has been disrupted and is a signal that the treatment is working. Things should settle down in a week or two.
