Blockpleasure Pest Control is a referral service. It does not do the work. It connects you with independent providers in its network who do. Answer first. Then you choose.

Four Pest Myths to Drop First

"Pests mean a dirty house." No. Pests want food, water and shelter. Spotless homes have them too.

"Winter takes care of it." Not really. In cold, snowy regions, pests head indoors. Mice and ants settle in basements and wall gaps. Spring snowmelt and storms can bring more moisture, and more bugs.

"I can see it, so I know the size." One mouse in view often means more out of sight. Same for roaches.

"Bombs and sprays solve everything." They may help with a small issue. They often miss nests inside walls.

DIY or Call a Pro?

Keep it simple. Here is a quick test.

DIY is usually fine when:

• You see a few ants on the counter now and then.
• You find one spider or cricket.
• The problem is small and not spreading.

Call a provider when:

• Pests come back after you clean up.
• You hear scratching in walls or the attic.
• You see droppings, chew marks or mud tubes.
• You find bites, tiny blood spots or dark specks on bedding. That can point to bed bug treatment needs.
• Winged insects appear inside near wood or a foundation.

Older homes with stone or block foundations and full basements have many hidden paths. If DIY fails twice, stop and get advice. Repeated tries can waste money.

Your First Hour

Stay calm. Do these steps in order.

1. Stop spraying. Extra chemicals can make a pro's job harder. 2. Take photos. Pests, droppings, damage and entry points. Use your phone. 3. Write notes. Where, when and how many. 4. Secure food. Use sealed containers. Take out the trash. 5. Keep kids and pets away from the area and from any products you used. 6. Reach out for help. Send a request while the details are fresh.

That is it. No need to tear the house apart.

Questions to Ask Before You Say Yes

A good provider answers plainly. Ask these:

• What pest is it, and how do you know?
• What does the quote include? Is it in writing?
• How many visits will it likely take?
• What do I need to do before and after?
• Is it safe for kids and pets? When can we use the room again?
• Will you seal the entry points or only treat the pests?
• What happens if the pests come back?

Typical U.S. costs vary by job. Basic pest visits often run $100 to $300. Rodent, termite and bed bug work can cost more. Compare written quotes.

Plan around life. Tell the provider your schedule and any limits at home.
