FAQ about pest control
Do you see lines of insects on your countertop, or is your furniture nibbled, or do you hear odd noises from behind walls? Those are clear signs. Our exterminators can identify the type of unwanted visitors you have and apply the right treatment.
Home exterminators agree that routine property upkeep, such as garden maintenance, is great for keeping pests out. Also, don't forget to seal gaps under doors, walls, and floors and manage your garbage properly. Lastly, schedule regular inspections to be 100% sure your house is pest-free.
Yes. Pests cause allergies and asthma and transmit diseases like Zika, Lyme disease, rabies, and more. That’s why it's vital to work with a pest control company that knows how to deal with local species. Our local exterminators only employ solutions that are safe for your kids and furry friends.
It all depends on the critters bothering you and where they are located. Our home exterminators will use only the latest in ecological pest management technology to provide a long-lasting solution.
The frequency of our visits depends on many factors, like your home's size and past infestation experiences. Most houses need just a seasonal check, while communities close to breeding grounds (like forests or wilderness) might need to see us every month. Our friendly home exterminators will recommend the best schedule for your case.

If you have unwanted visitors, your best bet is to call a professional residential pest control company. Playing home exterminator can lead to several challenges and risks:
- Property damage: If you don't detect or deal with pests on time, your house can suffer (and cost you big bucks to repair it).
- Health risks: The wrong pesticide can harm you, your family, or your furry friends. Avoid using illegal pesticides, which are easily found in local stores.
- Inadequate solutions: As mentioned above, inadequate products will not end the infestation. In fact, they will most likely make it worse.
- Misidentification: Fire ants are not the same as black carpenter ones. A trained professional must apply the right treatment for every bug. A mistake can be costly and worsen the problem.
- Time and cost: A seasoned exterminator can do an effective job in one visit, saving you time and thus money.
Sit back, relax, and let us take care of you. We're glad to help a neighbor out!
How to pest-proof your home
What's next after our services? Here are some tips by our exterminators to help you safeguard you all year round:
- Garden maintenance: Keep branches far from the house, and clear out gutters to prevent standing water.
- Clean!: Vacuum and clean floors, counters, and cabinets.
- Proper waste disposal: Seal garbage bins tightly and dispose of rubbish. Set up compost bins away from the house.
- Reduce moisture: Fix leaks in faucets and pipes and use dehumidifiers. A damp home is a breeding ground for pests.
- Leave pests out: Use caulk to seal potential entry points around windows, doors, and foundations.
- Don't let your food out in the open: Seal dry goods and store ripe fruits in the fridge.
If you notice any sign of infestation, our professional exterminators can inspect to clear any doubts.

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.
