If you need a one-time treatment for a minor issue, that usually costs less than a recurring service plan designed to keep pests away year-round.

About this service

Diatomaceous earth is a natural powder that works by dehydrating roaches upon contact. It is often used as a supplement to other treatments in cracks, crevices, and behind appliances where roaches hide. While it can be effective for smaller populations, it is rarely enough to stop a large-scale infestation on its own. For the best results, it should be applied as a very thin layer. If you are still seeing roaches after using it, you likely need a more comprehensive professional treatment.

Summer heat drives pests to seek moisture and shade, often right inside your living space. From ants to stinging insects, the high activity levels can make your outdoor areas unusable and your indoors uncomfortable. Regular treatments are the most effective way to maintain control during these peak months. Call us to keep your home pest-free all summer long.
