Frequently Asked Questions
Can I spray and get rid of my pest problem?
While there are many over-the-counter products claiming to eliminate pests, most are either diluted or only effective on contact. Our professional pest control services, however, use stronger, more effective chemicals with residual killing power. This means our treatments can last for a month or longer, providing a more sustained solution compared to the temporary fix offered by DIY sprays.
