"Well, we noticed we had termites pretty bad in the back yard and I got online and looked up what to do and the next day Terminex called us and was here that afternoon. I was very pleased with that.

Pest control measures for bird and bat issues typically last from several weeks to months, depending on the effectiveness of the implemented solutions and the return of conducive conditions.

Most treatments take 1-3 hours, but severe infestations may require multiple visits.

Costs depend on infestation severity, business size, treatment type, and frequency of service.

Seal entry points, such as where your chimney meets your house, or other gaps or holes exist.
Use bat deterrents like bright lights or ultrasonic devices to force them away from your home.
