Immediately available by phone before and after treatment. Responded the same day when I called him back to see about additional spot treatment in a couple areas for more ants. He was very up front about the limitations of the chemicals against certain types of ants (the black carpenter ants), and did not charge for the return visit. He correctly predicted that insect activity would increase for a short time after the chemicals were put down, and he also correctly assured us that they would eventually go away in 2-3 weeks. Since then, there have been no more ants in the treated areas, and all the inside bugs are completely gone. We had roaches, ants, spiders, to varying degrees, and they have all been eliminated as far as I can tell. They were very thorough in treating my crawlspace (the parts that were reachable) and did their best to get chemical into the unreachable parts. They apply top-quality product, and although that costs more, it is far more effective with less chemicals and fewer visits. He and his helper were prompt, called ahead, and called afterward to discuss the visit. A very refreshing attitude in this day and age, let me tell you. He is on my permanent call-list of contractors now.

I checked on amazon: this was a dirt-cheap controller, $150 including six zone modules retail, and I am sure that they paid a lot less for it. Also, while I will never know and ceratainly lighting can fry anything made by man, one wonders if a less cheap controller would have lasted more than two weeks. Bottom line: they will show up on time, they will get the job done, they will be very polite. And you will pay a premium for it. If cost is no object go for it. For me, I just can't afford this.

Sam came to the house on a Saturday, which I appreciated. However, he was there only 15 minutes, diagnosed the problem as a bad control board, and said he would have to order one. It came that following Tuesday, and he came to install the board. Right up until then, everything was fine. I...

Critter Control sent someone out to the house very quickly (though I had to pay an exorbitant same-day fee). He captured 1 of the squirrels, said they had gotten in through the chimney, told my teenage son that he should block the chimney with flashing, then left with only 1 of the 2...

It all started with a single employee back in 1992. There was just the owner, Josh Broughton, a truck, and a simple fumigation system. Back then only cockroach extermination services were available. But as the years added on, other forms of insects were added onto the roster. Next was termites, as that usually merits fast response from homeowners. Nowadays Father and Son Pest Control can take on any problem no matter what the species.

FAQs for pest control projects in Birmingham, AL
Different pest control methods exist to help mitigate an infestation. Not every technique will work with every pest, which is why speaking with a pest control expert is crucial to taming your problem. Different methods of pest removal include:
The cost of pest control is $175 for the average homeowner. However, you could spend as little as $100 or as much as $500 or more, depending on the infestation size, the number of visits you need, and the pest you’re exterminating.
For example, if you need to rid your home of spiders, you’ll likely be spending between $100 and $300. However, if you have a termite problem, you can expect a bill of $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the infestation size and damage caused.
There are specific methods for pest removal that you can DIY without hiring an expert. If you are preventing pests from making an appearance or clearing out a small infestation of harmless insects, you will likely have success on your own. However, if you’re dealing with pests that eat wood, bedbugs, or other pests that carry a disease risk, like rodents, it’s always worth it to call a pest professional to help you.
Even if you’re not immediately showing signs of pests, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of routine pest control. This should be done yearly, quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly, depending on your location and if any signs of infestation are already present. For example, if you live by water, you might experience more pests in the spring and summer than someone who lives in a dry climate. Discuss treatment options with your pest professional to determine a suitable schedule for you and your home.
While not every infestation is preventable, there are some actions you can take to minimize the risk of running into these pests in your home. These actions include:
Keeping your home tidy. This includes vacuuming regularly, sanitizing your kitchen, storing food in airtight containers, disposing garbage regularly, and keeping your home clutter-free.
Deep clean at least twice a year. Deep cleaning neglected crevices and corners of your home can help prevent breeding grounds from forming.
Repairing your home when needed. If your home has cracks or holes, you have an open invitation for pests to come in. Remove any standing water and seal any gaps in your floors, walls, and foundation.
Cleaning up your yard. Keep shrubbery and branches well-trimmed and away from your home. Remove fallen leaves and other debris.
Be smart with storage. If you use firewood, store it away from the home (at least 20 feet away if possible) and off of the ground.
