With two office locations Okoboji Pest Control serves the Iowa Great Lakes region and Central Iowa (Boone, Ames, Ankeny, Grimes, Johnston, Clive, Waukee & Des Moines area). Don't call those big chain pest companies who only care about their bottom line. Call me! The guy who's company is locally owned. I care about my community as well as my surrounding communities. Since I am the owner, I will be the only one you work with at my company. No more annoying phone menu's, no more limited hours "between 8AM-5PM." No more waiting for days to have a call back. I typically return calls within the hour. I'll fix your pest problem promptly the first time and my phone rings 24/7/365. I am not licensed to service any termite infestations so please do not contact me with these requests. Call me today 515 290 7011 or 712 566 5242.

Bug and insect pest control services FAQs

Home-applied pest treatments can address small to moderate problems, particularly when properly applied according to the manufacturer's directions. These consumer products contain lower concentrations of active ingredients than professional formulations and may lack the precision application methods professionals employ. While DIY approaches work well for contained issues and preventative maintenance, extensive infestations involving termites, bed bugs, or widespread cockroach problems often require professional intervention for complete resolution.

Most bug bombs protect your home for one to three months, depending on the specific formulation and environmental conditions. Environmental factors, including sunshine exposure, rainfall, and regular cleaning activities, can significantly reduce effectiveness over time. Most liquid applications require refreshing every four to eight weeks, while solid bait stations may remain active somewhat longer. Regular monitoring lets you determine when reapplication is necessary based on your specific situation.

Carefully review all product documentation before beginning the application. Protect yourself with appropriate clothing, including gloves, long-sleeved shirts, pants, and eye protection throughout the process. Keep children and pets away from treated areas for the duration specified on product labels. When using aerosol foggers, evacuate the treatment area immediately after activation and thoroughly ventilate spaces before re-entry. Always store unused product in original packaging in secure areas inaccessible to children and pets.
