    Have a pest-related question? We have the answer. Check out these FAQs and give us a call today for more information!

    • What exactly is a pest?

      Pests are organisms that damage or interfere with desirable plants in fields, orchards, landscapes, wildlands, homes, or other structures. Pests also include organisms that impact human or animal health. Pests may transmit disease or simply be a nuisance. A pest can be a plant (weed), vertebrate (bird, rodent, or another mammal), invertebrate (insect, tick, mite, or snail), nematode, pathogen (bacteria, virus, or fungus) that causes disease, or another unwanted organism that may harm water quality, animal life, or other parts of the ecosystem. When pests enter your home, it's crucial to take care of the problem ASAP. Call our team today to get started with our services.

    • What services are performed during my first appointment?

      Exterior treatment and spot treatments on the interior as needed. All of our pest control services are customized based on the needs of each individual customer. To learn more about how we can help you, give us a call today.

    • What services does Serv Pest Solutions offer?

      We offer general pest control, rodent control, tick control, and mosquito control.

    • Do you offer any warranties for your work?

      We offer a 30-day warranty for our one-time pest control services.

    • Why do I see more bugs after the first treatment?

      Pest activity is normal. We target pests where they hide, applying a treatment to their individual spots. When we apply a treatment, it forces the pests from their hiding places and out of your home. This is a signal that the pest control treatment is disrupting their nest and they are leaving your home.

    • Do I need to be home for my services?

      No! One of the reasons people choose to work with our pest control professionals is because of our intense focus on preventing pests from entering your home. We provide an extensive exterior treatment, reducing the need for excessive interior treatments. Interior treatments are free upon request. Give us a call to discuss your options!

    • How will I know when my services are coming up?

    • Do you offer the same services during each season?

    • Will my services always be on the same day?

      The exact day of your services may vary slightly depending on the different seasonal needs and the specific pest issues at your home. To schedule pest control services, call us today.

    • What is IPM?

      Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment. If you've been on the hunt for reliable pest control, it's time to call us.

    Our Four Step Pest Removal Process

    Step One: Identify Pests and Monitor Progress

    Correct pest identification is required to:


    • Determine the best preventive measures
    • Reduce the unnecessary use of pesticides
    • Prevent the elimination of beneficial organisms
    • When monitoring for pests, we maintain records for each building detailing:
    • Monitoring techniques, location, and inspection schedule
    • Record monitoring results and inspection findings, including recommendations


    Step Two: Set Action Thresholds

    An action threshold is the pest population level at which the pest's presence is a:


    • Nuisance, health hazard, or economic threat
    • Setting an action threshold is critical to guiding pest control decisions. A defined threshold will focus on the size, scope, and intensity of an IPM plan


    Step Three: Prevent Pests

    We focus on prevention by recommending removing conditions that attract pests, such as food, water, and shelter. Preventive actions include:


    • Reducing clutter
    • Sealing areas where pests enter the building (weatherization)
    • Removing trash and overgrown vegetation
    • Maintaining clean dining and food storage areas
    • Installing pest barriers
    • Removing standing water
    • Educating customers


    Step Four: Control Pests

    Pest control is required if action thresholds are exceeded. Our programs use the most effective, lowest-risk options considering the risks to the applicator, customers, and environment.


    Control methods include:


    • Pest trapping
    • Physical removal
    • Pesticide application
    • Documenting pest control actions is critical in evaluating success and should include:
    • A record of each pest control service
    • All pesticide applications
    • Evidence that non-chemical control methods were considered and implemented
    • Recommendations for preventing future pest problems
