Q: Can you 100% get rid of roaches?

• <div><p>You can 100% get rid of roaches, but it takes weeks or months of consistent killing effort, meticulous kitchen clean-up, and airtight food storage. Working with a local roach control pro to fight an infestation enhances your DIY efforts to ensure total elimination. A multi-pronged approach with a roach contractor prevents repeat infestations.</p></div>

Q: Should I be worried if I see a carpet beetle?

• <div><p>While carpet beetles won&rsquo;t bite you like bed bugs do, they still aren&rsquo;t pests you&rsquo;d want to find in your home. Carpet beetles in their larva stage can be voracious and cause a lot of damage as they eat through fabrics on furniture, clothing, bedding, rugs, and other materials. If you see carpet beetles, you&rsquo;ll want to have an exterminator come by to assess the damage and control the infestation.</p></div>

Q: Can you really get rid of bed bugs without an exterminator?

• <div><p>Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won&rsquo;t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments. </p></div>

Q: How long do pest inspections take?

• <div><p>Depending on the size of your home and accessibility, expect professional pest inspections to take between <b>30 and 60 minutes</b>. If you have a large property or limited accessibility, pest inspections may take longer. </p></div>

Q: What methods do pest control professionals use to eliminate wasps?

• <div><p>Professional wasp removal methods vary depending on the wasp species, nest location, and the severity of the infestation. Professionals use a range of techniques, including high-grade insecticides, pesticides, aerosols, insecticidal dust, liquids, and vacuuming. After exterminating the wasps, the technician will remove the active nest to prevent re-infestation. For a major or pervasive wasp problem, it is recommended to hire a professional to handle the issue safely and avoid painful stings.</p></div>

Very professional, on time. I thought his appraisal was low and he under valued my home. I understand the market in my area is low but a house compared to mobile home should have more value.
