"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. "

"In the past Senate replaced the insulation in the attic and routinely checks the bait boxes insie and outside my house. The technician came today to check the inside box only because the outside ones are still under snow and ice."

"The provider set up treatment outside, but the customer has experienced respiratory issues since then and still has rodents and bugs. Despite instructions not to apply anything inside, chemicals appear to have seeped into the floorboards, worsening her health. The provider charged over $4k plus $185 every three months but did not install traps to catch rodents. The customer does not want them to return and reports the basement is in disarray, contributing to the ongoing issues."

"Sheldon Faison F.A.C.E.S. LLC served as my inspector during the month of August in regards to closing on my property. Since then -- and barely a month later, I experienced issues in regards to the heating system. I paid to update it and was informed I would need to replace the HVAC unit completely before the end of the year (*this is noticeable because the HVAC unit was perhaps the first thing I inquired with you about but I was told not to worry about it and that the system was still "good"*). Note that this will cost approximately $6,000 - $10,000 in addition to the $1,000 I've already paid. Secondly, we are now in the month of March--I haven't been in my home for a full year and already, there are issues with water leaking from the third floor bathroom unto the living room floor. If one actually looks closely, there appears to be a very obvious bulge in the living room ceiling that was there since the day of closing. I reviewed the report and while it does mention issues with ceiling drywall not being sealed properly, this was not mentioned during the walkthrough and no added importance given to this issue versus less serious issues being given high importance during the walk though despite this inspector placing a great importance on explaining things to the minutiae. There were also issues with the toilet running that resulted in a higher than normal water bill for a few months that I also had to account for and again--this was not mentioned in the inspection report. I am sure there are quite more issues that haven't come to light yet but as a first time homeowner-- it is extremely disappointing to me that these items were not factored in the inspection report as this would have made all the difference in my decision to purchase this home."

FAQs for bug and insect pest control service projects in Washington DC, DC

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.
