Our Comprehensive Residential Pest Control Services
We offer a wide range of residential pest control services to address any pest problem you may encounter. Whether you're dealing with ants, rodents, termites, or any other unwanted critters, we have the expertise and tools to get the job done right.
General Pest Control
Our general pest control service targets common household pests, such as ants, roaches, spiders, and silverfish. We use a combination of methods, including sprays, baits, and dusts, to eliminate existing infestations and prevent future problems. We'll inspect your home, identify potential entry points, and seal them off to keep pests out.
Inspection and Identification
The first step in any effective pest control program is a thorough inspection. Our technicians will carefully examine your home, both inside and out, to identify the types of pests present and the extent of the infestation. We'll also look for conditions that may be attracting pests, such as moisture problems or food sources.
Treatment and Prevention
Once we've identified the pests and the source of the problem, we'll develop a customized treatment plan to eliminate the infestation. We use a variety of methods, including sprays, baits, and dusts, to target pests in their hiding places. We'll also provide recommendations for preventing future infestations, such as sealing cracks and crevices, removing food sources, and reducing moisture.
Rodent Control
Rodents can cause significant damage to your home and pose a serious health risk. Our rodent control service includes trapping, baiting, and exclusion techniques to eliminate rats and mice from your property. We'll also seal off entry points to prevent them from returning.
Trapping and Baiting
We use a variety of traps and baits to control rodent populations. Our technicians will strategically place traps and bait stations in areas where rodents are active. We monitor the traps and bait stations regularly and adjust our strategy as needed to ensure effective control.
Exclusion Techniques
The best way to prevent rodent infestations is to seal off entry points. Our technicians will inspect your home for cracks and crevices, and we'll seal them off with rodent-proof materials. We'll also recommend other measures you can take to prevent rodents from entering your home, such as trimming trees and bushes away from your house and keeping your yard clean.
Termite Control
Termites can cause extensive damage to your home's structure. Our termite control service includes thorough inspections, soil treatments, and baiting systems to protect your home from these destructive pests. We offer both preventative and curative treatments.
Termite Inspections
Our termite inspections are thorough and comprehensive. Our technicians will examine your home for signs of termite activity, such as mud tubes, damaged wood, and swarmers (winged termites). We'll also look for conditions that may be conducive to termite infestations, such as moisture problems and wood-to-soil contact.
Termite Treatments
We offer a variety of termite treatments to eliminate existing infestations and prevent future problems. Our treatments include soil treatments, which involve applying a liquid termiticide to the soil around your home's foundation, and baiting systems, which involve placing bait stations in the ground around your home to attract and kill termites.
Mosquito Control
Mosquitoes are not only annoying, but they can also transmit diseases such as West Nile virus and Zika virus. Our mosquito control service includes spraying and larviciding to reduce mosquito populations in your yard.
Spraying
We use backpack foggers to apply mosquito control products to your yard. Our technicians will target areas where mosquitoes are likely to breed and rest, such as standing water, shrubs, and trees.
Larviciding
Larviciding involves treating standing water with a product that kills mosquito larvae. This is an effective way to reduce mosquito populations because it targets mosquitoes before they become adults and can bite you.

Bed bugs are a growing problem in Ocala, Florida. Our bed bug control service includes thorough inspections, heat treatments, and insecticide applications to eliminate these persistent pests from your home.
Inspection and Identification
Our technicians will carefully inspect your home for signs of bed bugs, such as live bugs, cast skins, and blood spots. We'll also use specialized tools, such as flashlights and magnifying glasses, to help us find bed bugs in their hiding places.

Common Residential Pest Problems in Ocala, Florida
Ocala's warm, subtropical climate provides an ideal environment for various pests to thrive. Understanding the common problems can help homeowners proactively protect their properties. Here are some of the most frequently encountered pest issues in our area.
Ant Infestations
Ants are a nearly universal problem, drawn to food and water sources inside homes. While mostly a nuisance, some species like carpenter ants can cause structural damage by tunneling through wood. Effective control requires identifying the ant species, eliminating food sources, and applying targeted treatments to colonies.
Cockroach Sightings
Cockroaches are resilient pests that can contaminate food, spread diseases, and trigger allergies. They thrive in warm, humid environments and are often found in kitchens and bathrooms. Eliminating cockroaches requires thorough sanitation, sealing entry points, and using effective insecticides and baits.
Rodent Activity
Rats and mice can enter homes through small openings, causing damage by gnawing on wires, pipes, and insulation. They also carry diseases and contaminate food. Rodent control involves trapping, baiting, and sealing entry points to prevent future infestations. Regular inspections are key to early detection.
Termite Damage
Termites are a serious threat to homes in Ocala, feeding on wood and causing structural damage that can be expensive to repair. Subterranean termites are the most common type in our area. Preventing termite damage requires regular inspections, soil treatments, and proper maintenance to reduce moisture around the foundation.
Mosquito Bites
Mosquitoes are a nuisance pest that can transmit diseases like West Nile virus and Zika virus. They breed in standing water and are most active during dawn and dusk. Controlling mosquitoes requires eliminating standing water, using repellents, and applying larvicides to breeding sites.
Spider Webs
While most spiders are harmless, some species like black widows and brown recluses can pose a health risk. Spiders are attracted to homes with insects, so controlling insect populations is key to preventing spider infestations. Regular cleaning and removing webs can also help keep spiders at bay.
Flea Problems
Fleas are a common problem for pet owners, causing itchy bites and transmitting diseases. They can infest carpets, furniture, and bedding. Flea control requires treating pets with flea medication, vacuuming frequently, and applying insecticides to infested areas.
Silverfish Sightings
Silverfish are nocturnal insects that feed on paper, fabric, and glue. They are often found in dark, damp areas like bathrooms and basements. Controlling silverfish requires reducing humidity, storing paper and fabric items in sealed containers, and applying insecticides to infested areas.

Earwig Discoveries

Stinging Insect Nests
Wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets can build nests in and around homes, posing a threat to residents with their painful stings. Removing nests safely requires professional expertise, especially for aggressive species. Preventing nests involves sealing entry points and avoiding attracting stinging insects with food and sugary drinks.
