"It was the best experience I could have imagined. I learned last night, after returning from Florida after 3 1/2 months, that I had hundreds of mouse droppings under my sink. I haven't had a pest problem in the 49 years I lived here. I was freaked out. After going to Angi I was contacted by Osip within 5 minutes. He offered to come this morning, at no cost, and give me recommendation. He showed up on time, explained the problem, offered a solution and was as professional and pleasant as could be. He provided me with a very reasonable option, and cleaned and sanitized under my sink for free. This was the best experience I ever had and I'm 78 years old! I commend Service Manager Jude Osipitan without reservation, and I applaud Angi for recommending him."

"The salesman recommended two exterior treatments to get rid of the hornets/wasps. The main nest was on top of the garage, two stories up, and we could hear them in the wall between two of our bedrooms. They scheduled us very quickly and we haven't seen any hornets/wasps inside since the first treatment about 10 days ago. The first treatment took about 30 minutes and the second, 6 days later, took about 10 minutes. The two reasons for the B rating, not A, are that the salesperson said they would warrant the work for a year, meaning until Dec 31 of the current calendar year (I asked for clarification), but the contract e-mailed to us specified 30 days. In addition, the person doing the second treatment didn't have a ladder, and was using some spray thing to shoot liquid up. It seems unlikely that the main nest actually got hit a second time, since it was on top of a two-story roof. We were also hoping they could either block the hole that was allowing insects into the house or at least tell us what work might need to be done so we could hire someone else to do that, but since the 2nd person didn't have a ladder, that didn't happen either. Also the 2nd person said he couldn't understand the notes the first one left, which seemed odd. Overall, the immediate issue was satisfactorily resolved, however."

Bug and insect pest control services FAQs
Yes, hiring a pest control pro is a worthwhile investment. A licensed exterminator has the tools, training, and products to effectively eliminate pests and prevent them from returning. While DIY sprays may offer short-term relief, a professional can spot hidden nests, tailor treatments to the exact pest, and help you avoid costly repairs down the road. That combination of speed, precision, and prevention makes the service worth the fee for most homeowners.
Pests that reproduce quickly—think roaches, fleas, ticks, ants, termites, and some spiders—often need routine service. After the initial knock-down visit, your pro may recommend monthly or quarterly follow-ups to keep eggs from hatching and colonies from rebuilding. Ask your technician for a schedule that fits your home and local pest pressure.
Many professional products are pet-safe once they dry, but some formulas and baits can be harmful if a curious cat or dog makes contact too soon. Please inform your technician about the pets you have so they can select the appropriate treatment, set up necessary barricades, and provide you with clear re-entry times. Always follow their post-treatment instructions to keep four-legged family members safe.
Start by cutting off food, water, and easy entry. Keep dry goods in sealed bins, wipe up crumbs fast, and declutter storage areas where bugs love to hide. Outside, repair torn screens, seal gaps around pipes, and trim back vegetation that brushes the house. A quick monthly walk-around to spot new cracks or leaks goes a long way toward keeping pests out for good.
Service frequency hinges on the pest and your location. One-off jobs—like removing a wasp nest—often need just a single visit. Ongoing nuisances such as ants or rodents may call for quarterly or even monthly check-ins. Ask your pro to recommend a cadence that matches local pest cycles and the age of your home, so small issues don’t mushroom into costly fixes later.
