PestNow brand was founded in Virginia in 1995 as Superior Pest Management when four high school friends came together to form their own company. Today, we have multiple locations in three states, and serve thousands of happy customers. We offer pest control; termite treatments and warranties; mosquito, flea & tick control; WDIs (real estate inspections); lawn fertilization & weed control; TAP insulation; and wildlife solutions for homeowners and businesses in the mid-Atlantic.
"PestNow was hired to inspect our house for termites. This was required by the lender of the family buying our house. PestNow found a pile of wood leaning up against a deck column they said needed repair due to termite damage. PestNow also required the entire house be treated. There were no termites found anywhere other than the pile of wood, according to PestNow. They quoted us for over $800 to treat the house. We questioned the need and amount so they lowered it to $580. As a result of PestNow stating they found termites in the deck column, the lender of the buyers required the deck column be repaired due to termite damage. The deck repair company assessed the deck column agreeing it needed to be repaired, but not due to termites, rather moisture. I question whether PestNow found termites at all. Their unethical tactics cost us well over $1,000. Beware of PestNow."

Professional treatments provide substantial population reduction when properly timed and applied. Success rates improve with comprehensive approaches that combine targeted sprays with systemic treatments. Certified professionals can assess property-specific factors and customize treatment protocols accordingly.
Most properties see significant improvement after properly sequenced applications, though complete eradication may require ongoing management in heavily infested regions.
Key indicators include sticky residue (honeydew) on plant surfaces, sooty mold growth on leaves, egg masses appearing as grayish-brown patches on trees, and the presence of the insects themselves. Young nymphs appear black with white spots, while older nymphs develop red patches. Adult lanternflies have distinctive spotted forewings and bright red hindwings. Tree health decline, including wilting or stunted growth, may also signal an established infestation.
When applied according to manufacturer specifications, professional treatments pose minimal risk to plant health. Certified applicators select appropriate formulations and concentrations based on plant species, condition, and environmental factors. They calibrate application equipment to deliver precise amounts of product where needed. Potential risks primarily arise from improper application techniques or using products not specifically labeled for ornamental plant use.
Treating a spotted lanternfly infestation is rarely a one-time cost. Comprehensive management often requires multiple interventions throughout the year as these insects progress through different life stages. A single treatment may provide temporary relief, but it won't prevent future generations from developing.
Effective programs often include treatments targeting emerging nymphs in spring, adults during summer, and egg masses in fall/winter. Establishing an ongoing monitoring and treatment schedule provides the most reliable protection.
Treatment timing should align with the insect's life cycle stages. Early spring applications target newly hatching nymphs before they can mature and reproduce. Mid-summer treatments address adult populations before egg-laying begins. The specific calendar timing varies by region and seasonal weather patterns. Professional pest managers monitor local population development and time applications accordingly for maximum effectiveness.
