How often should I have pest control treatments?
Pest control treatments frequency is determined by the infestation level on the property that will be treated and for that we offer free inspection. But in average a low infestation or a maintenance treatment consist in an initial service with a follow up in 10 days and an every other month service.
How long does a treatment take?
It depends on the individual case. Some pests take longer to control than others, and some properties are larger and more complicated to deal with than others. Some general pest treatments can take 20-30 minutes, while others, such as extensive termite treatments, can take up to 18-24 hours and require more than one service, depending on the severity of the infestation and the type of treatment needed.
Do I need to leave my home during treatment?
No, that is not necessary. You can remain in the house during Pest Control services. For other types of services, our technicians will advise you if it is necessary to leave the property for any period.
How long will the treatment last?
It depends on the individual case. Some pests take longer to control than others, and some properties are larger and more complicated to deal with than others. Some general pest treatments can take 20-30 minutes, while others, such as extensive termite treatments, can take up to 18-24 hours and require more than one service, depending on the severity of the infestation and the type of treatment needed.

Do I need to leave my home during the treatment?
You don't need to leave your home for our pest control services. The treatment is odorless, fume-free, and safe for both humans and pets, allowing your family to remain at home without any disruption to your daily routine.
Do I need to prepare my home before the treatment?
It's important to have a clean and clutter-free home before the treatment. Mopping and scrubbing tile or hardwood surfaces can help eliminate any pest eggs. Vacuuming is also recommended to remove pest eggs, reducing the need for additional services after the treatment.
How long after treatment can I expect to see results?
The timeline for results depends on the level of infestation and the conditions on your property. In many cases, you'll see a noticeable reduction in pest activity within a day or two. However, it varies based on the type of pest and the treatment used for optimal long-term results. Occasionally, you may see a slight increase in pest activity right after the initial treatment—this is a good sign that the treatment is working. The disruption of their breeding and feeding habits forces pests to move, and as they encounter the treatment, it leads to a reduction and eventual control of the infestation, especially with regular maintenance services.
How long does pest control take?
The duration of pest control treatment varies depending on the type of pest and the size or complexity of the property. General pest treatments typically take 20-30 minutes, while more extensive services, such as termite treatments, can take 18-24 hours and may require multiple visits. The time needed also depends on the severity of the infestation and the specific treatment required to effectively resolve the issue.
How often should I schedule residential pest control?
We recommend scheduling residential pest control treatments once a month or every two to three months, depending on the severity of the pest issues and your specific needs. Regular treatments help ensure long-term pest prevention and keep your home pest-free year-round.
Is Pest Control really necessary?
Yes, pest control is essential. While DIY methods may help in some situations, pest control often requires more expertise and strategic planning than most homeowners can provide. Pests can be persistent and difficult to eliminate without professional intervention. Lack of experience and time can make it challenging to effectively deal with infestations. For immediate and long-lasting solutions, it's best to contact us to handle the problem and prevent future issues.
How are pests getting into my home?
Pests can enter your home in various ways. Cockroaches, ants, and mice can squeeze through small cracks and crevices in search of food and shelter. To reduce the chances of pests entering, it's important to maintain landscaping by keeping branches, bushes, and woodpiles away from your home. For example, rolling or lifting woodpiles off the ground can prevent pests from nesting, and proper stacking is also helpful. Pests like spiders and ants can use trees and bushes as ladders to enter through roofs, windows, or cracks in siding. Loyal Pest Control thoroughly inspects your home to identify potential entry points and areas that need attention, but homeowners are responsible for addressing these areas. Pets can also carry fleas and ticks indoors, so it’s important to keep them properly vaccinated and dewormed. Additionally, pests can hitch a ride through packages stored in warehouses or hide in vehicles, gaining access to your property that way.
Can I get rid of Pests on my own?
While there are some temporary solutions that may provide short-term relief, long-lasting pest control usually requires professional intervention. Over-the-counter pest control products are often ineffective and may require multiple applications, leading to wasted time and money. Additionally, pesticides should be used with caution to ensure safety and effectiveness. Our certified technicians are trained to handle pest problems correctly and comply with all current regulations, ensuring the best and safest results.
