Where to Begin
- Bites but no proof? Book an inspection, or a K9 search if the problem looks new.
- Hosting weekly guests? Ask about a K9 check and heat so the calendar stays open.
- Condo with shared walls? Ask how the HOA and the neighboring units fit into the plan.
- Want no pesticide where you sleep? Ask about heat, or steam for beds and couches.
- Bugs in most rooms, or back after an earlier job? Ask whether tenting makes sense.
