"They contacted us right away to schedule the service. They were punctual and courteous. We had to phone the company before they began work because the technician was not able to provide details on the pesticides they use. We asked for that information at the time of scheduling and were told that the service technician would be able to provide. In the future, we would ask for MSDS sheet before the day of service."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

Not only are mice clever, they are also adept at squeezing in tiny cracks to get into your home. Figuring out how rodents are getting in is key to getting rid of mice quickly and humanely. Check these areas for entry points:

  • Basement or crawl space

  • The garage 

  • Gaps in the foundation

  • The roof or attic

  • Underneath and around pipes, drains, electrical wiring, and gas lines

  • Around doors and windows

  • Baseboards

  • Kitchen cabinets

  • Behind appliances

  • Air vents

The time and number of treatments required to get rid of roaches depend on several factors, including the type of roach, the severity of the infestation, and the extermination method. For small infestations, a single treatment may be sufficient, with results seen in as little as 1 to 3 days. Larger or more severe infestations will require several treatments. It typically takes around 2 to 8 weeks to completely eliminate roaches in most cases, but severe infestations can take up to 6 months to fully resolve.

You’re not likely to find water bugs in your house. They may accidentally come in an open door when flying, especially since they are attracted to lights. But water bugs tend to stay stationary in bodies of water. You’re much more likely to see a roach in your home, not a water bug.

For a minor infestation, you can expect to clear up a German cockroach problem in about two weeks. That’s usually enough time to confirm that they don’t have additional hiding spots and aren’t continuing to encroach from an outside source. If you have a major infestation and use the services of a pest control company, it can take several weeks and multiple visits to fully clear your home, up to a couple of months.

Yes, it’s actually common to see more cockroaches after you spray. It might seem like things are getting worse, but that’s usually a sign the treatment is working. Roach sprays and baits can flush them out of their hiding spots as they try to escape the chemicals. You might notice them acting strangely—slower, twitching, or out during the day when they’re usually hiding.
