Which Service to Ask About
- Bites but nothing visible? Start with an inspection, or a dog search if the case seems new.
- Guest house or granny flat on the lot? Have every sleeping space checked in one visit.
- Large ranch home? Ask how the crew will cover the square footage and extra rooms.
- No pesticide on the beds? Heat, or steam on mattresses and seating, may suit you.
- Bugs in most rooms, or back after a past job? Ask whether tenting is the better route.
