We are a small veteran-owned pest control startup based in Altoona, Iowa. I started this business to provide affordable pest control to my clients. We are a family-focused company and will maintain that as we grow.
"They were quick to get us on the calendar, finding a time that worked for both us and them. He was very profession and 'walked' us through what was getting done. He sent a detailed explanations of what was found and what he 'exterminated'. The price was fantastic and he went the extra mile for us. I would use him again in the future and recommend him to others."

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.
