For Your Cleveland, NC Home

Q: What happens if it rains after you treat?

Most of our products are designed to bind to surfaces like siding and foundations. Once the product dries (which takes about 30 minutes), it is water-resistant. Rain can actually help granular treatments activate and reach the soil where pests live.

Whether you have a current invasion or just want prevention, we have a plan for your property in Cleveland. Get fast elimination today and lasting protection for tomorrow.

The Process

How We Protect Your Cleveland Home

Our residential pest control focuses on the areas pests actually use — foundations, entry points, garages, crawl spaces, and landscaping beds. From kitchens and bathrooms to basements and attics, we tailor each treatment to the way your home is built and how pests are getting in.

Inspection

We identify key entry points—like eaves, weep holes, and foundation cracks—where pests are trying to get in.

Exterior Barrier

We apply a protective barrier to the exterior foundation and entry zones. This stops pests outside, so you don't need chemicals inside.

Maintenance

Weather breaks down treatments over time. We return on a scheduled rotation to reinforce your home's protection year-round.

Why Exterior First?

Stop Them Where They Live

95% of pest problems start outside. By establishing a robust barrier around your foundation, we keep pests in their environment and out of yours.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know in Cleveland

Protecting your home shouldn't be complicated. Here are detailed answers to common questions about our service.

Yes. We use EPA-registered products and apply them strictly according to the label. In most cases, we ask that you keep pets and children off treated surfaces until they are dry (usually 30-45 minutes).

Our residential pest control plans cover general household pests including ants, spiders, roaches, crickets, silverfish, earwigs, and common rodents (mice and rats). *Termites, mosquitoes, and wildlife are covered under specialized service plans.

Most of our products are designed to bind to designed to bond to surfaces that are treated, siding, foundation, etc. Once the product dries (which takes about 30 minutes), it is water-resistant. Rain can actually help granular treatments activate and reach the soil where pests live. However, if you see persistent pest activity after a service, just give us a call.

Yes. While fleas and bed bugs typically aren’t part of a standard quarterly plan, we do offer targeted treatments for both. Because these pests require a different approach and preparation, pricing is quoted separately after we understand the home and level of activity.

For exterior service, please unlock gates and keep pets inside. For interior service, we may ask you to pick up small items off the floor or clear countertops if we are treating a kitchen issue. We will let you know in advance.

We believe our service speaks for itself. We offer flexible agreements. We don't lock you into restrictive, multi-year contracts like the big national chains. We want to earn your business with every visit.

For most maintenance visits, no. Since treatments focus on building a protective barrier around the exterior of your home, service can usually be completed while you’re away at work or running errands. We don’t typically leave service tickets on the door. Instead, we communicate directly with you — confirming your appointment, providing an ETA before arrival, and checking in once service is complete. You’ll always know when we’re there and when the visit is finished.

Over-the-counter products often only kill bugs on contact and don't solve the nest issue. We use commercial-grade, residual products that pests carry back to the colony. We also have the training to identify the source of the problem, not just the symptom. Our licensed residential pest control technicians are trained to use these products safely in and around your home.

While our treatments are designed to provide lasting protection, environmental conditions can vary. If you notice continued pest activity between scheduled visits, please contact us so we can reassess the situation and determine whether a follow-up treatment is needed.
