Wasps
Basic Shield
Wasps build nests under eaves, in attics, and in the ground. They are aggressive when threatened and can sting multiple times. Our technicians locate and remove active nests safely, then treat to deter future nest building.
Signs of infestation:
✓Paper-like nests under eaves
✓Increased wasp activity near entry points
✓Buzzing sounds in walls
Ants
Basic Shield
Ants enter homes in search of food and moisture, forming trails to kitchens and pantries. Fire ants, pavement ants, and odorous house ants are among the most common species in our service area. We treat both interior trails and exterior colonies.
Signs of infestation:
✓Visible ant trails along walls or counters
✓Small dirt mounds near foundation
✓Ants found near food sources
Silverfish
Basic Shield
Silverfish are moisture-loving insects that thrive in humid areas like bathrooms, basements, and attics. They feed on paper, fabric, and starches and can damage books, clothing, and wallpaper over time.
Signs of infestation:
✓Yellowish stains or small holes in paper/fabric
✓Silvery, fish-shaped insects in dark corners
✓Shed skins in humid areas
Roaches
Basic Shield
Cockroaches are resilient pests that spread bacteria and allergens throughout a home. American and Oriental roaches are most common in our area and are treated through baiting, exclusion, and residual applications.
Signs of infestation:
✓Droppings that resemble coffee grounds
✓Musty odor in confined spaces
✓Egg cases behind appliances
Scorpions
Basic Shield
Scorpions are nocturnal and hide in dark, cool spaces like shoes, bedding, and wall voids. The bark scorpion is the most venomous species in North America. We treat exterior foundations, entry points, and interior hiding spots.
Signs of infestation:
✓Scorpion sightings at night
✓Hiding under rocks, logs, or debris outside
✓Entry through small gaps in walls or doors
Advanced/Premium Shield
Mosquitoes
Advanced/Premium Shield
Mosquitoes breed in standing water and are most active at dawn and dusk. They are known carriers of West Nile Virus, Zika, and other diseases. Our outdoor treatment targets resting sites in vegetation and eliminates breeding areas.
Signs of infestation:
✓Bites on skin, especially at dusk
✓Standing water in yard or containers
✓Buzzing near water features or dense plants
Ticks
Advanced/Premium Shield
Ticks latch onto humans and pets while passing through tall grass or wooded areas. They can transmit Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and other pathogens. We treat yard perimeters and vegetation to reduce tick populations.
Signs of infestation:
✓Ticks found on pets or clothing after being outdoors
✓Redness or rash following a tick bite
✓Wooded or grassy areas near home
Fleas
Advanced/Premium Shield
Fleas infest pets and spread rapidly through carpets, bedding, and upholstery. A single female can lay up to 50 eggs per day. We treat pet areas, carpets, and yard zones to break the flea life cycle.
Signs of infestation:
✓Pets scratching excessively
✓Small dark specks (flea dirt) on pet bedding
✓Bites around ankles and lower legs
Rodents
Advanced/Premium Shield
Mice and rats enter homes through gaps as small as a dime. They contaminate food, chew wiring, and can spread disease. Our rodent program includes baiting, trapping, and exclusion work to seal entry points and eliminate existing populations.
Signs of infestation:
✓Droppings along baseboards or in cabinets
✓Gnaw marks on food packaging or wires
✓Scratching sounds in walls or ceilings at night
