Pest Control
Our comprehensive pest control services target ants, roaches, spiders, and other common pests through quarterly or monthly treatments. Technicians perform interior crack-and-crevice treatments and exterior perimeter sprays to create protective barriers. With flexible scheduling options and free web/dirt dobber removal, we ensure ongoing protection for homes and businesses across Charleston's Tri-County area.
Termite Control
Specialized termite solutions include Termidor treatments, CL-100 inspections, and 7-10 year booster programs. Our process involves perimeter trenching, moisture control, and annual inspections with digital documentation. We offer subterranean termite agreements covering Formosan termites, with guaranteed repairs for covered damage when maintaining service agreements.
Mosquito Control
Monthly mosquito treatments reduce populations by 90% through targeted fogging and foliage treatments. Services include property inspections for breeding sites, seasonal protection plans, and immediate follow-up visits if effectiveness isn't observed. Clients report complete mosquito elimination after initial treatments, with recurring options for sustained outdoor enjoyment.
Rodent Control
Professional rodent management addresses rats, mice, and squirrels through exclusion techniques and bait stations. Initial services include property inspections, entry point identification, and strategic trap placement. Recurring quarterly/monthly programs maintain exterior bait stations with free carcass removal and activity monitoring to prevent reinfestation in residential and commercial properties.
Bed Bug Control
Targeted bed bug treatments utilize heat and chemical solutions for complete elimination in homes, hotels, and multi-unit buildings. Our process includes thorough inspections, treatment of all life stages, and follow-up visits to ensure 100% eradication. Commercial-grade products and specialized equipment effectively address infestations while minimizing disruption to property occupants.
