Identification of the Pest is Critical

The key to pest control is to properly identify the pest. The best way to do this is to bring in a sample of the pest for identification by our staff. For example, if you have an ant problem, we need to assess the actual species so we can help you efficiently. In central Ohio, there are 6-7 species of ants and the control products solutions vary greatly from baits to liquid applications.

We will also discuss the circumstances and conditions surrounding your pest problem so we can best determine what to recommend. Here are some of the questions we will ask:

  • Did you bring us a sample of the pest to identify? If not, what do you think the pest is?
  • How long has this pest problem existed?
  • How many pests do you see at a time?
  • During which part of the year is this problem at its worst?
  • Is there an area where these pests seem most concentrated such as in the kitchen, bathroom, mulch bed, etc?
  • What type of landscaping or environment surrounds your house?
  • What is the general condition of your yard and home?
  • Do you have large, mature trees in your yard?
  • Are there areas of considerable moisture in or near your property?
