On your first pest control visit, a professional technician will perform a thorough inspection and initial treatment designed to identify the pest problem and start control, and the visit typically lasts 45 minutes to 90 minutes depending on home size and pest type. First, the technician will interview you about what pests you have seen, where and when you see them, any bites or droppings, and any previous treatments or conditions like leaks or pet food left out. Then they will conduct a detailed inspection inside and outside, checking kitchens, bathrooms, basements, attics, crawl spaces, baseboards, under sinks, behind appliances, mattress seams for bed bugs, and exterior foundation, eaves, trash areas, standing water for mosquitoes, and entry points like cracks and gaps. They will identify the pest species, assess the level of infestation, and look for conducive conditions such as moisture, clutter, and food sources. Next, they will explain their findings, provide an action plan, discuss treatment options including baits, sprays, dusts, and growth regulators, and give safety instructions for children and pets. Then they will perform initial treatment, which may include applying gel baits for cockroaches and ants, residual sprays along baseboards and entry points, dusts in wall voids, setting traps for rodents, and removing wasp nests if safe. Finally, they will give you prevention tips like sanitation, sealing cracks, reducing moisture, and schedule a follow-up visit in one to two weeks to monitor results.
