Prior to Technician Arrival FAQS

How Can I Prepare My Property Before the Technician Arrives?

To support our pest technicians, try to provide as much property access as possible. To do so, consider commonly hidden or blocked off areas, such as walls and flooring. This can include putting away any pet food on floors, and moving furniture off of walls to reveal pest access points.

Can I Stay During the Pest Control Service?

Whether someone stays on the property depends on the treatment type, and who is staying. For children and pets, it's advised to vacate the property until the treatment dries. However, large-scale pest treatments, including termite control require everyone to vacate the property until further notice. Before the service, check in with your pest provider to make travel arrangements where needed.
