The best methods to handle termite issues are a combination of preventative methods and regular inspections. There is a wide range of possible termite treatments and preventative methods, so we advise that you get a proper termite inspection to receive an accurate estimate for treatment cost.

To prepare for the termite inspection, please remove items from the baseboards so that we may visually inspect for any signs of termites. We provide a visual inspection inside and outside your home. We will inspect in and around your living space and also the crawl space and/or basement. The inspection costs between $125-$250. We will provide an estimate for termite treatment at the time of inspection.

We will provide a visual inspection, treat, and vacuum the infested area. The treatment normally lasts from 1-2 hours and occurs both inside and outside. The cost for treatment starts at $150 and varies depending on the size of the location. Fleas can lay eggs that may take months to hatch. The flea life cycle makes treating the infested area complicated. Sometimes it takes up to 3 treatments to completely eliminate fleas. We use Pyrethin and growth regulators to control flea infestations. Pyrethin can possibly be harmful if it comes into contact with skin, is ingested, or is inhaled.

We perform a visual inspection to identify and control according to species. To aid us in this process, please leave the ant trail untouched. Ants leave a chemical trail to guide colony members to the destination. If you clean up the trail, it will be more difficult for us to follow the trail back to the place where your ants are coming from. We provide a free estimate/quote over the phone. The cost of treatment starts at $150 and varies depending on the severity of the problem. The treatment process can take place inside and/or outside. The chemicals we use to treat ants can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled.

We will provide a visual inspection for bees, holes, and frass (wood shavings that the bees leave behind after drilling). You can help by taking note of where the bee activity is occurring. The cost of inspection is free, and the starting price for treatment is $150. The treatment cost will vary based on the size of the structure. We use Cypermethrin to treat carpenter bee infestations. Cypermethrin can possibly be harmful if it comes into contact with skin, is ingested, or is inhaled.

We will visually inspect the areas of suspected stink bug activity. We will only treat the outside of your structure to form a barrier that prevents the bug from entering. The price for treatment starts at $150. The chemicals we use to treat stink bugs can possibly be harmful if it comes into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled. The best way to prevent future issues is to schedule regular visits from a pest control professional. Appointments can be scheduled at 2, 3, or 4-month intervals. Develop a plan with an MDE Pest Services professional to prevent and manage future stink bug issues.

We provide a free estimate/quote for spider control over the phone. We will visually inspect the area of suspected activity to assess the situation. When treating the area outside the structure, we first sweep and then treat. Inside, we will only apply the treatment. The time and cost of the treatment varies. Our starting price for treatment is $125. We use state-approved deterrents. The chemicals we use to treat spiders can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled. The best way to prevent future issues with spiders is to schedule regular visits from a pest control professional. Appointments can be scheduled at 2, 3, or 4-month intervals. Develop a plan with an MDE Pest Services professional to prevent and manage future spider problems.

We will visually inspect the inside and outside area, provide a free estimate for the roach treatment, and treat the infestation (crack and crevice), and vacuum. If the inside of your property is treated, you must be prepared to leave the premises for at least 5 hours. If the outside of your property is treated, you will not be required to leave. The treatment cost starts at $150 and will depend on the size of the treated areas and the extent of the infestation. Please remove all items from the following places: kitchen drawers, kitchen cabinets, kitchen pantry, under kitchen sink, closets in all rooms. The chemicals used to treat roach infestations depend on the type of roach being treated. Some roaches require growth regulators to control the roach life cycle for complete elimination. These chemicals can possibly be harmful if it comes into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled.

We will visually inspect the infested area (usually outside), provide a free estimate for the treatment, spot-treat the mounds, and granulate the yard twice a year. The time it takes to complete the process and the cost of the treatment varies. These figures depend on the size of the treated areas and the extent of the infestation. You should have your grass cut 2-3 days prior to inspection. We will use spray and granules to treat the area of infestation. These chemicals can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled.

We will come out and visually inspect the area in which wasp activity is occurring, provide an estimate for treatment, treat the wasp nest, and remove it when possible. Treatment pricing starts at $150. We use Cypermethrin or Pyrethin to treat wasp nesting areas. Cypermethrin or Pyrethin can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled.Help prevent recurrence by keeping eaves and gutters clean. Wasps have been known to make their homes around eaves & in gutters. Dirty gutters provide a dark, moist and safe place for them to nest & also attract other insects that they eat. Develop a plan with an MDE Pest Services professional to prevent and manage future wasp issues.

Honey Bees are a protected species. Please call us if you need to identify or get rid of honey bees that are causing you problems & we will refer you to a bee keeper.

We will visually inspect the infested area (outside only) to check for problem areas around foliage and standing water, provide a free estimate for the treatment, and apply the treatment. We will alert you to zones of your yard that may be at risk and advise on ways to reduce the problem areas. For treatment, we use a fogger to fog shrubbery and apply a larvicide granule on the ground. We use chemicals approved by the state of South Carolina. These chemicals can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled. The time it takes to complete the process and the cost of the treatment varies. These figures depend on the size of the treated areas and the extent of the infestation.

We will visually inspect the infested area (inside or outside) to check for problem areas, provide a free estimate for the treatment, and proceed with the treatment process. Pricing starts at $150. The time it takes to complete the process and the cost of the treatment varies. These figures depend on the size of the treated areas, the types of rodents you are dealing with, and the extent of the infestation. We may possibly use rodenticides, baits, and trap methods. Rodenticides may be used to treat small rodent infestations. Rodenticides can possibly be harmful if they come into contact with skin, are ingested, or are inhaled. Be prepared to show the areas of suspected activity.
