Pest Control That Treats Your Home Like Our Own.

From sugar ants on the counter to fire ants in the yard, ant colonies can number in the hundreds of thousands. The trail you see is only a fraction of the problem. Kill the workers and the colony just sends more.

Signs to watch for

Trails near sinks, pet bowls or pantries; small dirt mounds along walkways; piles of fine debris near baseboards.

Why it matters

Food contamination, painful stings (fire ants), structural damage (carpenter ants).

When it's worst

Heaviest spring through early fall, year-round in Florida.

How we handle it

We treat the colony, not just the trail. Using targeted baits and a perimeter barrier that keeps new scouts from getting in.

German and American roaches thrive in warm, humid spaces. Kitchens, bathrooms, garages and utility closets. They reproduce fast and a single egg case can hatch dozens of new roaches.

Signs to watch for

Pepper-like droppings, musty odor, smear marks along baseboards, sightings after dark when the lights flip on.

Why it matters

Triggers asthma and allergies, contaminates food prep areas, spreads bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli.

When it's worst

Active year-round indoors; peaks in summer humidity.

How we handle it

We find the harborage points (under appliances, behind plumbing, inside wall voids) and treat the source with gel baits and IGRs, not just a surface spray.

Subterranean termites cause more home damage than fire and floods combined, and homeowner's insurance doesn't cover it. They tunnel up from the soil and eat 24/7, often for years before anyone notices.

Signs to watch for

Mud tubes on foundation walls, hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windowsills after a swarm, bubbling or warped paint.

Why it matters

Structural damage to framing, subflooring, door and window frames. Repair bills routinely run into the tens of thousands.

When it's worst

Swarms in spring; feeding never stops underground.

How we handle it

We protect homes with the Sentricon® System with Always Active™. Colony-elimination baiting, no slab drilling, continuous year-round defense. We treat subterranean termites only.

Mosquitoes breed in standing water, a bottle cap is enough, and adults rest in shaded, humid spots like shrubs, under decks and along fence lines. Reducing those resting sites is what actually drops the bite count.

Signs to watch for

Bites at dusk and dawn, swarms near patios, larvae in any water that's stood for more than a few days.

Why it matters

West Nile, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, Zika and dog heartworm transmission.

When it's worst

Florida and Texas: nearly year-round. South Carolina: spring through late fall.

How we handle it

We treat the resting zones. Shaded foliage, mulch beds, eaves and under decks, and identify breeding sites so you actually get your yard back.

Roof rats and house mice can squeeze through openings the size of a dime. Once inside, they chew wiring, contaminate insulation and reproduce fast, a single pair can become 30+ in a year.

Signs to watch for

Scratching in the attic at night, droppings along walls, gnaw marks on food packaging, greasy rub marks along baseboards.

Why it matters

Electrical fires from chewed wiring, contaminated insulation, salmonella, hantavirus and leptospirosis.

When it's worst

Activity surges in fall as temperatures drop; year-round in attics and crawl spaces.

How we handle it

We trap and remove the active population, then seal the entry points so the next wave can't follow them in.

Bed bugs hide in mattress seams, headboards, baseboards and electrical outlets. Anywhere within a few feet of where you sleep. They're notoriously hard to kill with over-the-counter sprays.

Signs to watch for

Small itchy bites in lines or clusters, rust-colored spots on sheets, tiny black specks along mattress seams, sweet musty odor.

Why it matters

Sleep loss, anxiety, secondary skin infections from scratching. They don't transmit disease, but the infestation itself is the problem.

When it's worst

Year-round indoors; surges after travel-heavy seasons.

How we handle it

Room-by-room inspection followed by targeted heat treatment or precision chemical application. Built to reach every life stage, including eggs.

Fleas live where pets play. Shaded lawn edges, under decks, in pine straw and pet bedding. Once they get inside, eggs and pupae can survive in carpet for months, hatching long after you think the problem is gone.

Signs to watch for

Constant pet scratching, tiny black specks ("flea dirt") in pet bedding, bites around ankles, fast-jumping specks on light-colored floors.

Why it matters

Itchy bites, allergic dermatitis in pets, anemia in young animals, tapeworm transmission.

When it's worst

Heaviest spring through fall; year-round in Florida and South Texas.

How we handle it

Targeted indoor treatment plus a yard application that breaks the flea life cycle. Safe for kids and pets after it dries.

Ticks wait on grass tips and brush, then climb on whatever brushes past. Pets, kids, you. Florida, Texas and Carolina yards with shaded edges, leaf litter and wildlife traffic are prime tick territory.

Signs to watch for

Ticks attached to skin or pet fur after time outdoors, bullseye rashes, tick activity in tall grass and along wood lines.

Why it matters

Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis and other tick-borne illnesses.

When it's worst

Spring through fall; year-round in the Deep South.

How we handle it

Yard treatment focused on shaded edges, fence lines and brush areas where ticks actually wait, paired with exclusion advice for pets.

Most house spiders are harmless, but widow and recluse species in the Southeast and Texas can deliver medically serious bites. Webs in corners and clutter mean there's enough other insect activity to feed them.

Signs to watch for

Webs in corners, eaves and storage areas; egg sacs; shed exoskeletons; live spiders in garages, sheds and basements.

Why it matters

Painful bites from black widows and brown recluses; allergic reactions; the "yuck factor" of webs throughout the home.

When it's worst

Year-round indoors; outdoor activity peaks late summer and fall.

How we handle it

We knock down webs, treat hiding spots, and address the prey insects spiders are feeding on so they have a reason to leave.

Paper wasps, hornets and yellowjackets build nests in protected spots. Under eaves, inside grills, behind shutters and in wall voids. A nest near a doorway or play area is a real hazard, especially for kids and anyone allergic.

Signs to watch for

Wasps repeatedly entering the same spot, paper-like nests under overhangs, increased activity around trash cans or sweet drinks.

Why it matters

Painful stings, severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), aggressive defense of the nest.

When it's worst

Spring nest-building through late-summer peak; activity drops in cold weather.

How we handle it

Safe nest removal, including hard-to-reach voids, without leaving residual hazards behind for kids or pets.

Silverfish thrive in humid spaces. Attics, bathrooms, basements and inside cardboard storage boxes. They feed on starches in paper, books, wallpaper paste and stored fabrics, often causing damage long before you spot one.

Signs to watch for

Tiny holes or yellow stains on paper and books, shed silvery scales, fast-moving insects when you flip on a bathroom light.

Why it matters

Damage to books, photos, wallpaper, stored clothing and important documents.

When it's worst

Year-round in humid areas; surges in summer and after roof leaks.

How we handle it

We treat the humid attics, closets and storage areas where silverfish actually live, not just the rooms where you happen to see them.

Earwigs hide in mulch, leaf litter and damp soil right against the foundation, then push inside through weep holes and door sweeps when conditions get too wet or too dry. The pincers look intimidating but they rarely bite.

Signs to watch for

Earwigs in basements, bathrooms or laundry rooms; chewed leaves on garden plants; activity spikes after heavy rain.

Why it matters

Mostly a nuisance, but large numbers indicate moisture issues that attract worse pests.

When it's worst

Spring through fall; year-round in irrigated landscapes.

How we handle it

Targeted perimeter and mulch-line treatment that pushes earwigs back out of the home and addresses the moisture conditions drawing them in.

Millipedes and centipedes both love damp, dark places. Under mulch outside, and in garages, basements and bathrooms inside. Centipedes can deliver a painful bite; millipedes secrete an irritating fluid when handled.

Signs to watch for

Curled-up bodies on garage floors, fast-moving centipedes in bathtubs and basements, activity along baseboards in damp rooms.

Why it matters

Painful centipede bites, skin irritation, and a clear sign your home has moisture or harborage issues.

When it's worst

Heaviest in fall as outdoor conditions dry out and they push indoors.

How we handle it

We seal entry points and treat the damp areas where millipedes and centipedes gather. Inside and along the foundation.

Bark scorpions and striped bark scorpions show up in select Texas markets, hiding in block walls, under landscape rock, in garages and inside the home. Stings are painful and can be medically serious for kids, pets and anyone allergic.

Signs to watch for

Scorpions glowing under blacklight after dark, sightings in garages or laundry rooms, activity along block walls and rock landscaping.

Why it matters

Painful stings, allergic reactions, real danger to small children and pets.

When it's worst

Most active spring through fall; hide indoors during temperature extremes.

How we handle it

Targeted exterior treatment, harborage reduction and exclusion to keep scorpions from getting in. Available in select Texas markets.
