PestGuard Service
PestGuard starts with the pest problem you're having and a plan for your home. We treat covered issues inside and outside, then continue with exterior service every other month to help prevent covered pests from becoming a problem. If a covered pest problem comes up between visits, contact us for additional service at no extra charge while your account is current.
Your First PestGuard Visit
Your technician starts by talking with you about what you've been seeing and where you've noticed it. We inspect the problem areas and the outside of your home, looking for the source of the activity and places pests may be getting in. What we find helps us build a treatment plan for your situation.
We'll walk you through the service agreement, including the initial inside-and-outside service, ongoing visits, covered pests, and pricing. Once you've reviewed and signed the agreement, we'll set up payment and monthly autopay.
Treatment depends on the pest and what we find. We may use bait, targeted spray applications, or granules in mulch beds where needed. Fire ant treatment may call for a specific granular product, and mosquito treatment may include appropriate foliage and bush applications. Your technician chooses the approach for the problem rather than using every method at every visit.
Ongoing PestGuard Service
Once the initial problem is addressed, we focus on prevention with routine exterior and yard service every other month. We visit during the month your home is due, when we're working in your area. Routine visits are unannounced, so you don't need to set an appointment for each exterior service.
Your technician knocks when they arrive. If you're home, we'll ask whether you've noticed any pest issues since the last visit. If everything has been going well, we inspect for exterior activity and tailor the preventive treatment to what we find.
If you tell us about an issue inside, we'll ask your permission to come in and address it during the visit. We only enter with your permission.
Monthly autopay spreads the cost across the year. Your routine service schedule is every other month. We send a service notice after the work order is completed.
If Pests Show Up Between Visits
You don't have to wait for the next routine visit if you're seeing a covered pest problem. Call, text, or email our office and tell us what you're seeing and where. We can arrange an appointment for the issue, including interior treatment or garage access. Additional service for covered issues is included at no extra charge while your account is current.
