FAQ: Pest control services in Gastonia, NC
If you call before noon, we can usually get an exterminator anywhere in Gastonia that same day. If we ever can’t, we’ll almost certainly be there the next day.
Yes, absolutely. All of our pest control methods are completely kid and pet-safe!
Before your exterminator comes through, we just ask that you pick up pet bowls and if necessary, clear the baseboards. Afterward? Keep things tidy, give the treatment a little time to work, and don’t go scrubbing the magic off too soon. Trust the process.
Then, we keep coming back until it does.
Yes, and you’ll save when you do. Check out our monthly packages for more information.

Why Gastonia calls us for pest control

We’re from here
When you call us for pest control, you won’t get some random call center in another time zone. We live here. We work here. The bugs know it. So do your neighbors.
We’re fast
If you call before noon, then one of our exterminators is most likely going to be pulling into your driveway later that day. If not, then tomorrow. Either way, they won’t see it coming.
We’re good at what we do
Though we like to keep it light, we are seriously good at pest control. There’s no trophy yet for Most Dead Roaches, but if there were, we’d be polishing it right now.

Gastonia’s most wanted: Black Pest’s exterminators are on the lookout
Ants. Roaches. Rats. Mosquitoes. Termites. Spiders. Bed bugs. Whatever makes you flinch, we’ll get them out of there.
- Little ant highways along the walls
- Dirt piles in odd little places
- Gathering around snacks like they were invited
- Droppings that resemble pepper (but are not!)
- That damp, musty “something’s off” smell
- Streaks where they’ve scurried through
Rats & Mice
- Scratching in the walls at 2 in the morning, classic
- Tiny, dry droppings tucked into corners
- Chew marks that don’t look like Fluffy’s
- Buzzing near your ear, always perfectly timed
- Red, itchy bites in unwelcome clusters
- Wriggling tiny larvae in forgotten water bowls
- Mud tubes like bug-sized highways
- Sawdust, minus the saw
- Wood that taps hollow, oh great
Bed Bugs
- Bites in straight lines or tidy clusters
- Rusty spots on sheets (ugh)
- Tiny bugs hiding in seams and shadows
- Webs in corners that weren’t there yesterday
- A sighting in the tub... or worse, the bed

Read What Our Customers Have to Say

The staff was very friendly, professional and not pushy at all about the service. I would hire them in the future.
Brooke L.
I am a long time customer--always satisfied with the service. Last time however, there were still a few spiderwebs on the house-- I called and they sent someone out right away for a thorough redo. I am still a very satisfied customer. Great customer service from office to service staff.
Ruth Roper
Great! Everyone was considerate of my time and inconvenience. Also, every single person I spoke to or met was professional, courteous and friendly.
Cheryl B.
We've used Black Pest for the past 16yrs. Started with our first home and we've continued to use them for each home after moving twice. Always professional, easy to work with, their treatments are effective and in the few times we've needed additional treatments between scheduled visits, they've come out at no additional charge. Have recommended to many neighbors and friends who have same experience.
Kevin Reyes
I’ve used Black Pest for over 10 years and have never had a bad experience. They even respond when I call about seeing a bug or two in my house.
