What to Do Before You Call Pest Control or an Exterminator

What to do Before You Call Pest Control

If you’re wondering what you need to do before you call Pest Control or an Exterminator, you can use this handy checklist.

Pest Control is necessary. Not only for your safety but also for both your budget and peace of mind. There are so many different types of pests that come to your home. Regardless of the season, both your home and garden are going to have some unwanted pests. Whether it’s an emergency or routine maintenance, Classic Pest Control & Insulation will take care of your pest problem.

If you have not spotted pests or rodents in your home or in your yard, try pest prevention first.

Inside of your home.

Remove sources of food, water and shelter to which pests and rodents may be attracted.

Store your food in sealed containers.

Remove garbage, regularly.

Fix leaky plumbing. And don’t let water accumulate anywhere in the home. As examples, don’t let water collect in trays under your house plants or refrigerator. And don’t leave pet food and water out overnight.

Get rid of clutter. It provides places for pests to breed and hide. Plus, it makes it hard to get rid of them.

Close off places where pests can enter and hide. Caulk cracks and crevices around cabinets or baseboards. Use steel wool to fill spaces around pipes. And cover holes with wire mesh.

Outside of your home.

Place garbage containing food scraps in tightly covered trash cans.

Eliminate standing water.

Get rid of stacks of newspapers, magazines or cardboard.

Check for pests in packages or boxes before carrying them into your home.

If you have spotted pests or rodents in your home or in your yard, seek professional help.

Take it from the pros at Angie’s List. No one wants to see a mouse scurry across their kitchen floor. No one wants to walk into a spider web, dandling from the living room ceiling. And it can be tempting to take matters into your own hands.

But, the quickest and most effective method of eliminating unwanted pests is not at the hardware store. For lasting, safe extermination, hire a professional pest control service.

When you consider the amount of money you’ll spend on pesticides, plus the potentially harmful chemicals you’ll spray around your home, hiring a professional will most likely be less expensive. Especially in the long run.

Living with pests and rodents breeds contamination. Plus, it can harm your property and your loved ones. So, don’t take any chances. Call us today!

History

We started out in 1997 as a full service pest control company. But as the demand grew and our skills became more proficient, we started offering insulation and rodent exclusion services in 2000.

The truth is many of our customers needed new insulation installed and their crawlspaces cleaned up after rodent infestations had ruined them. They also needed a company that could find the holes the rodents were using to enter the home and get those holes sealed. At that time there were no companies who offered those services. We realized we could make it easier on our customers by offering rodent elimination, clean up and exclusion services.

We put 25 years of rodent elimination experience to work by being the best choice for clean up and exclusion work as well. Who better to seal rodents out and clean up their mess than the people who are experts at getting rid of them in the first place?

Now all of our customers can put their trust in us to take care of the entire job. We were one of the first pest control companies to get started in the local insulation industry and we specialize in taking care of homeowners and their properties. Our first insulation jobs were our current pest control customers, and then our customer base quickly grew by word of mouth. As an owner I could see that people simply wanted someone to show up on time and do the work that was supposed to be done and that is how our business has grown, by treating customers the way we would want to be treated.

As a result, the business has grown considerably. We have become very knowledgeable about insulation as well as pest control and now work for a variety of fire and water damage restoration contractors, plumbers, electricians, roofers, heating and air conditioning contractors and remodeling contractors. All for the same reason; we show up and do what were supposed to do and we do it well. To this day, I have not seen a company that does a better job than we do. Some may do it as well, but I have not seen anyone do it better.

Philosophy

Our philosophy is simple: We strive for excellence. In our company meetings I tell my employees how we define excellence: “Giving the customer what they’ve paid for, from start to finish.” It is that simple.

No sales gimmicks or tricks. I’m a consumer like everyone else. I don’t like someone trying to sell me something I don’t need, so we don’t do it here. We will tell you what you need, not what we want you to buy. That’s why we don’t make our customers sign contracts or remain obligated. You can use us for one service or many. We leave the decision up to you.

We are a service based business not a sales based business. When a company is providing an excellent service then referrals and increased sales are a natural result.

“I have used Classic Insulation and Pest Control for a number of projects over the last eight years, including removing and replacing insulation in large apartment structures. They have consistently done an excellent job, staying on time and on budget. Other contractors, working on my properties, have commented on the quality of their work.”

Gary Burchard

YUKSEL INC.

“Classic Insulation removed all of the old insulation in both my attic and crawl space and re-insulated both with more modern materials. In addition they put down a new vapor barrier in the crawl space. I have had two other professional insulation people review the work and they both have said that it was one of the best professional jobs they had seen in a crawl space and attic. I have been very pleased with their work and the timeliness of the job. My house is over 35 years old. “

Deane Cruze

The Classic Insulation team shined above their competition, from their front desk to the estimator, to the installation crew, their professionalism was impressive. Plus, we have saved approximately 30% on our heating cost. “
