"Van Dozier from Senate Pest came to my door and introduced himself before our quarterly service. We have had Senate for a few years now, but I had never met Van. He explained what services he was going to do during his visit, and then asked if I had any questions or concerns. I let Van know about a dead mouse I had seen near the foundation of my home, and he assured me this was because the traps were working as they should be. He then went around the whole exterior of the house and treated all cracks and crevices with spray, and applied a granular barrier around the house as well. He also brushed away all the spider webs on the front porch, and around all of our windows. Afterwards, Van came back to the door to let me know he had completed the service, and to thank me for my business. Great experience! "

"Connor's sent out a technician to inspect for bed bugs. It turned out there was no evidence of bed bugs, so we did not need treatment. Very courteous and professional service and advice. "

"Don’t waste your money with this firm. They don’t deliver. About a year ago, I was convinced by a salesman of the company that the scratching noises I was hearing in my house were caused by mice roaming around in the walls of the house. I spent over $12,000 and took on a $150 quarterly maintenance plan to get rid of the mice. The company replaced all insulation in my attic and other areas. Also, the company told me they sealed all holes that the mice might use to enter the house. Over the past year, I have complained repeatedly about the mice still roaming around in my house. Most times, an agent would come to the house, look around the outside and place glue traps in areas inside the house. These are amateurish actions I could undertake myself. Recently, I complained by letter to the owner of Century, Mr. Brett Nunn, about my mice problem. Mr. Nunn did not respond to my letter."

FAQs for bug and insect pest control service projects in Sterling, VA

The timeframe it takes to eliminate gnats varies considerably depending on the infestation's severity and the treatment approach. According to pest control professionals, completely eliminating gnats from your home can take several days to a few weeks. Success depends mainly on identifying and addressing the source of the infestation, such as overwatered plants, decaying organic matter, or moisture problems. Following treatment, continued prevention measures significantly improve long-term results.

When applied correctly, professional exterminators use treatments that present minimal risk to household members. Many companies now offer family-friendly options specifically formulated to be less toxic while remaining effective against gnats. If necessary, your pest control professional should provide clear instructions regarding temporary evacuation during application and advise on appropriate waiting periods before resuming regular activity in treated areas.

Though often grouped together, these small flying insects have distinct characteristics and habits. True gnats commonly gather around houseplants and moist soil. Fruit flies, which are lighter colored, primarily target overripe produce and fermented items. Drain flies, recognizable by their moth-like appearance, breed in the organic matter in drains and plumbing. Identifying which type you're dealing with helps determine the most effective elimination strategy.
