When you call to get a price, the total depends on a few specific things. We look at the total square footage of your home, the type of pests you are dealing with, and how long the infestation has been going on. 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. We also consider the accessibility of the affected areas and the specific products needed to handle the job safely. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Carpenter ants don't eat wood, but they tunnel through it to build nests, which weakens the structure of your home. We locate the main colony and any satellite nests, then use specialized treatments to eliminate the queen and workers. You should call us if you see large black ants inside or notice piles of sawdust-like debris near wooden structures.
