FAQs
What can a pest control or a pest management professional do for bed bugs that I can't do myself?
There are numerous DIY solutions available that may help with bed bug treatment in your home. However, pest-specific training and experience are essential components in the overall success of a bed bug treatment program. More often than not, individuals affected by bed bugs do not have sufficient knowledge to address an infestation and attempts may lead to more frustration and stress as bed bug populations continue to multiply. At 1st Pest Control, our Certified Pest Control Technicians are trained in the most current methods to effectively and safely eliminate bed bugs. We are proud to work alongside a well-known K9 team that specializes in the identification of bed bugs as an integral part of our program.
What should I do after a bed bug treatment to make sure I get the most effective results?
A successful bed bug treatment requires the effort of both our Certified Pest Control Technicians and the homeowners. Homeowners must follow pre-treatment and post-treatment instructions to ensure the efficacy of the treatment. Not complying with these instructions may result in recurrence. If you feel that you are unable to prepare your home for any reason (e.g. physical disability, anxiety), 1st Pest Control offers an infestation preparation treatment service that may be for you. The service comprises a 1st Pest Control team that will prepare your home for a bed bug treatment. Subsequent to the treatment, we also offer a post-treatment extreme cleaning involving the removal of insect debris, general cleaning and the restaging of your home for re-occupancy.
When should I call pest control?
When you suspect the presence of wildlife, rodents or insects in your home, property, or business, give us a call as soon as possible. We will conduct a thorough assessment and present treatment options you can take as your next step. At your request, our Certified Pest Control Technicians will build a treatment plan customized to your home and current pest situation. The longer you wait, the larger pest populations will grow and the more damage or contamination they will cause. At 1st Pest Control today, we will promptly address your pest problem before it manifests into a severe infestation.
How do I clean up rodent droppings?
Finding rodent droppings is not only an upsetting indicator of rodents in the home but is also unpleasant to deal with. However, it is integral that droppings are properly disposed of for the health of you and those living in your home. To avoid touching or inhaling any diseases or bacteria that may be present, it is recommended that droppings are cleaned up by: Spraying the droppings with disinfectant without sweeping or moving them. Leave the droppings for half an hour after spraying them. If possible, air out the area and leave the droppings. While the droppings are still damp and while wearing a mask and gloves, wipe up the rodent droppings and put them into a plastic bag. Immediately dispose of the bag outside, along with the gloves used to touch the droppings. Wash your hands and refrain from touching your face until you are sure the area and your hands are clean. Rodent droppings are almost always an indication of an infestation, which poses a potential health risk. Contact 1st Pest Control for effective and long-term control of your rodent situation.
