Skipping a service

Our services are based on pest biology and focus on prevention of pests.  Skipping a service can greatly reduce the effectiveness of future services.  This is especially true for our basic quarterly pest control service.

Our quarterly services are designed to match up with the different environmental conditions and pest pressures that we experience during each of the four seasons. Skipping a service means you will not get the full effectiveness of the quarterly service throughout the year. For example, our Winter service (December, January, February) includes destroying overwintering dirt daubers in their nests and removing spider webs and other wasps nests, while our Spring service (February, March, April) includes application of an insect growth regulator that interrupts insect development around the perimeter of your home for up to 9 months. Summer and Fall services target pests that are most active at those times. Scorpions, for example are most active in the summer, while crickets are most active in the fall so we use different products at those times.
