"I was apprehensive about using any pest control service for a major flea infestation at a rental property. I was told by many people that it would be next to impossible to get rid of the fleas. Pro Defense knocked them out without a problem! Great communication and awesome customer service. I will use them anytime I need the services of a pest control company. Thanks!!"

"Colt Pest control reached out right away after my inquiry and an appt was made to discuss my problem and options. Chance came and walked around my property then offered a variety of options that I could chose from. He was realistic and financially conscious with his recommendations. I had a rodent problem , Chance made multiple trips the first week and his service has been very effective. I would ( and will) recommend Colt Pest control for any rodent control issues. This is a reliable and professional service at a $$ that won't break the bank. Bonnied"

"At first, they put bait out to determine if we had squirrels or rats. We ended up having a raccoon in the attic. They came back four times and sealed up all access spots. Very thorough and friendly."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

While you might want to cut corners by either borrowing or purchasing used live traps for catching rats, this can be dangerous because those traps could contain leftover viruses and bacteria that will enter your home. Always start fresh with new materials to avoid contamination.

For routine pest control maintenance, most specialists recommend treatments every three months (quarterly). However, the ideal frequency can range from monthly to yearly depending on several factors. If you have a severe infestation, more frequent treatments will likely be necessary. Your location also plays a role; for example, homes near water may experience more pests in spring and summer. It's best to discuss your specific situation with a pest control professional to determine a suitable schedule. If you notice any pests between scheduled visits, inform your provider so they can address the issue promptly.

If you seal bees in a wall and don’t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they’ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That’s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.

Common house roaches, typically American cockroaches or Periplaneta americana, usually live for around one year. The male American cockroaches survive for about one year, although the females may live up to 700 days. That’s because the reproductive cycle alone can last around 600 days for this type of cockroach.

Seeing a termite swarm near your home is a strong indication that a colony is nearby, but it doesn’t always mean your home is infested. Swarmers may emerge from outdoor colonies or neighboring structures. However, if the swarm is inside your home or you notice discarded wings near windowsills, it likely means termites are nesting within your walls or foundation. A professional inspection is the best way to confirm and address a potential infestation ASAP.
