FAQs
Do you offer seasonal one-time treatments?
We offer annual treatments that are one time during a specific season. We also offer season-long maintenance programs.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. We stand behind everything we do. Our services are tried and true. Each treatment has its own warranty. That’s one of many reasons why we’re still serving Erie after 90 years.
How long after the initial treatment does it take to see results?
Results vary according to the type of pest, treatment methods and products used. For example, immediate results can be seen when a yellow-jacket nest is removed or treated with a liquid pesticide. However, when using baits for ants the process takes longer since the pests have to ingest the product for it to be effective. Your inspector and technician will review expectations for your particular situation and treatment.
