What should I look for in a pest management provider?

While there are hundreds of pest management professionals to choose from, they are not all the same. It is important to do some homework to ensure that the pest control provider you choose can handle your pest problem. Start by asking the following questions:

  • Does the company have a good reputation?
  • Do they specialize in commercial pest control?
  • Are they knowledgeable about my business and the unique challenges we face regarding pest control?
  • Do they have a thorough training program?
  • Do they guarantee their work?
  • Are they financially sound so they can back up their guarantee?
  • Are they licensed?
  • Are their employees security screened?
  • Are they knowledgeable about the regulatory issues in my business pertaining to pest control, sanitation and related issues?

Do you provide bed bug extermination service? If so, how much does it cost?

Getting rid of bed bugs can be very difficult. There is no magic wand which can control these blood-sucking pests. Control of bed bugs can take time and multiple follow-up treatments.

The first part of any bed bug control program is a thorough inspection. This includes not only areas that are infested, but also adjoining areas. The inspection can be time consuming, based upon amount of furnishings and size of infested area as well as the adjoining areas.

When treatment is needed, pricing will depend on the size of the area to be treated as well as the type of treatment. If standard control, using products specifically applied for bed bugs, you can expect to remove carpet edges where necessary, perhaps outlet plates and some personal belongings. If heat treatment is used in areas offering that service, certain materials must be removed such as candles, makeup, etc.

Since there are so many possibilities, it is impossible to make a blanket statement about the cost to get rid of bed bugs in every case.

The conditions of each property are different, and therefore the problems are different for each house. Thus, quotes and estimates for the cost of bed bug control are best done locally and perhaps after an inspection by a qualified Pest Specialist.
