Services
Termite Control
Our termite control specialists implement Termidor soil treatments to create protective barriers against subterranean termites. We address both native and Formosan species through annual contracts that include structural foaming treatments for active infestations while maintaining environmentally responsible application methods.
Flea Treatment
We combine Talstar broadcast sprays for outdoor flea control with indoor Precor growth hormone applications. Our technicians treat carpets, floors, and pet areas using integrated pest management strategies that target flea life cycles while minimizing chemical exposure for households.
Fire Ant Management
Granular Talstar applications create long-lasting fire ant control in outdoor spaces. Our technicians scout properties for mounds and apply treatments that provide months of protection while following safety protocols to protect non-target organisms and vegetation.
Pharaoh Ant Control
Specialized Maxforce bait stations combined with perimeter residual treatments address Pharaoh ant infestations. Our approach targets colony nesting in walls and attics through strategic bait placement while implementing exclusion techniques to prevent re-infestation.
Wood Destroying Insect Inspection
Annual inspections identify wood-destroying insects and moisture conditions conducive to infestations. We provide detailed reports with corrective recommendations and offer Firstline bait monitoring systems for proactive termite prevention in residential properties.
