Question 1

What is the RMP program?

Accepted Answer

The RMP program is a popular service that consists of 2 preventative treatments per year, one in Spring and one in the Fall. It includes emergency visits if needed, an initial inspection and treatment of existing problems, and preventative treatments for rodents and other over-wintering insects. If a pest problem occurs during the year, a technician will be sent to treat it at no additional charge.

Question 2

What is the Quarterly Treatment Program (QTP)?

Accepted Answer

The QTP consists of 4 scheduled preventative treatments spread over a 12-month period, designed to stop pest infestations before they begin. It provides the highest level of protection and is similar to the RMP program but includes 2 additional visits for inspection and preventative treatments.

Question 3

What pests are covered by the RMP and QTP programs?

Accepted Answer

The RMP and QTP programs cover Carpenter Ants, Silverfish, Mice, Pavement Ants, Centipedes, Rats, Fleas and Ticks, Cockroaches, Wasps, Clothing Moths, Spiders, Hornets, Carpet Beetles, Earwigs, and Pantry Pests.

Question 4

Can prices be quoted over the phone?

Accepted Answer

Prices for most jobs can be quoted over the phone, with the exception of Termite treatments and Bat exclusions. For these types of pests, an inspector will be sent out free of charge to provide an accurate, on-the-spot price quote.

Question 5

What are the signs of bats in a house?

Accepted Answer

Signs of roosting bats include bat guano on window sills, on top of window AC units, on the roof, or on the ground next to the foundation. A musty ammonia odor in the attic or upstairs bedroom is also a common sign. The presence of bat droppings on the attic floor or insulation is also an indicator.

Question 6

What health problems can bats cause?

Accepted Answer

Bats can transmit Histoplasmosis, a fungal disease associated with bat guano, when spores are inhaled. Rabies is another concern, which can be transmitted through a bite from a rabid bat. All contact with bats should be avoided, and any bat suspected of contact with a person should be captured for rabies testing.

Question 7

Are there effective home remedies for bat control?

Accepted Answer

Popular home remedies for eliminating bats are generally temporary, ineffective, or illegal. There are no pesticides registered for bat control. Moth balls or bright lights may have temporary effects, but ultrasonic and electromagnetic devices are not effective.
