General Pest Control

General Pest Control

Year-round protection against Tampa's most common household pests.

Our general pest service tackles the insects that plague Tampa Bay homes year-round—palmetto bugs, ants, spiders, and silverfish. We customize treatments based on your home's age and location: older bungalows need different approaches than new construction, and coastal properties face different challenges than inland homes.

Service includes interior and exterior treatment with emphasis on pest entry points. For Tampa's historic homes, we pay special attention to original foundations and wood features. For modern homes, we target the small gaps around utilities and weep holes that pests exploit. Quarterly visits coincide with seasonal pest patterns—focusing on ant prevention before spring rains, palmetto bug control before summer humidity peaks, and spider management before fall cooling.

All treatments use low-odor products safe for families, with special precautions for homes with children or pets. We'll point out moisture issues (common in Florida homes) that attract pests and recommend corrective actions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see more pests after it rains?

Florida's heavy rains flood ground nests, driving ants and other pests indoors. Our barrier treatments are formulated to withstand typical Tampa rainfall.

Are your treatments safe for my toddler?

Absolutely. We use products approved for use in schools and daycare facilities, and will advise on any temporary precautions needed.

How do you treat my kitchen safely?

We use baits and crack-and-crevice applications—never broad sprays near food areas. All products are EPA-approved for use in food-handling spaces.
