We are a small veteran-owned pest control startup based in Altoona, Iowa. I started this business to provide affordable pest control to my clients. We are a family-focused company and will maintain that as we grow.

Serving all of Southeast Iowa for over 50 years, Coppes Pest Control, is a locally owned and operated pest control business that services both residential and commercial properties. We specialize in the use of Sentricon baiting systems, which eliminates the use of chemical, and/or liquid applicators. Complete termite and ant pest control, we also control and eliminate: Roaches Fleas Water Bugs Wasps and Hornets Rodents Don't let pests ruin the value of your home. Termites cause billions of dollars in damage each year. They primarily feed on wood, but also damage paper, books, insulation, and even swimming pool liners and filtration systems. Termites can injure living trees and shrubs, but more often are a secondary invader of woody plants already in decline. While buildings may become infested at any time, termites are of particular importance when buying or selling a home since a termite inspection/infestation report is normally a condition of sale. Besides the monetary impact, thousands of winged termites emerging inside one's home is an emotionally trying experience not to mention the thought of termites silently feasting on one's largest investment. Call today and ask for a free home inspection to see if termites, or any other pests are affecting your home.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Once you’ve found your scorpion problem, there are plenty of ways to take action against those unwanted pests. The first things you should do are seal any cracks in your home, reinforce your screen doors, and clear up your brush and yard waste. If the problem persists, identify the hot zone areas where scorpions are most likely to go, then apply a sticky trap, spray with scorpion chemical spray, or use diatomaceous earth.

No, vinegar cannot kill bamboo. Common household chemicals like vinegar and even bleach are unlikely to kill bamboo, and they may only have minimal effect on bamboo roots. Since they can alter the chemical composition of nearby soil, we suggest avoiding these methods. Bamboo is very tough and not even all herbicides work well against it. To beat back bamboo, find an herbicide that’s specifically designed to work against tough grasses.

No, the spotted lanternfly does not sting, bite, or otherwise do anything painful or damaging to humans or animals. Do not hesitate to approach and kill the insects and any eggs you find on sight—you’ll be playing an important role in slowing the spread of these invasive and destructive pests. If you’re not sure if the insect is a spotted lanternfly, snap a picture and contact your local extension office for help identifying it.

The technician's removal method will depend on the species of wasps, the nest’s location, and the severity of the infestation. However, many methods are available to remove wasps , such as aerosols, dusting, liquids, and vacuuming. Once the wasps are exterminated, the technician will remove the nest to prevent re-infestation.

It’s difficult to be sure bed bugs are gone, especially with DIY methods. Any treatment you use should also include dedicated beg bug traps to pick up stragglers and help you monitor how many are left. It usually takes around three weeks to clean up remaining bed bugs and make sure they aren’t returning any time soon. Hiring a bed bug exterminator can decrease the amount of time it takes to remove these pests.
