Before you call: 5 things to know
A quick guide to get the most out of your call.
- An automated assistant answers first and connects you to a local pest control company.
- It usually takes about a minute, so stay on the line.
- A specialist will ask about your pest, your home, and your zip code to match you with the right service.
Be ready to describe what you’re seeing, where, and for how long. A photo from a safe distance helps.
- Lots of bites when you’re outside
- Standing water around the yard: buckets, tires, toys, birdbaths, plant saucers, trash cans

- Many companies offer both.
- One-time treatment: can make sense for an isolated problem.
- Ongoing plan (often quarterly): can make sense when pests keep coming back.
- Ask what each option includes, and whether re-treatments between visits are included.
- Price depends on your home, your location, the pest, and the service.
- Initial service: usually higher, because the first visit includes an inspection and the most work.
- Recurring price: monthly or quarterly, if you choose an ongoing plan.
- Ask about contract length and how to cancel.
- Are you licensed in Florida?
- What products will you use, and can I see the label?
- When is it safe to go back in, and is it safe around kids and pets?
- What happens if pests come back?
- What’s the contract length, and how do I cancel?
- How often do you treat, and which areas of the yard?
Have ready: your zip code, good times for a visit, and whether you have pets or kids at home.
Pest problems tend to grow when left alone. Call early for the best chance at a same-day appointment.

- Frequent bites whenever you’re outdoors
- Standing water in gutters, planters, drains, and low spots
- Larvae wriggling in any water that sits for more than a few days

What a pest control provider does
A provider inspects the yard for breeding sites and the shaded, humid areas where adult mosquitoes rest.
They treat larval and resting sites and recommend source reduction — removing or draining standing water.
Many offer a recurring seasonal service, since mosquito pressure builds back up over time.
Why it pays to act now
Mosquitoes breed fast in even small amounts of standing water, so the ones you swat are a fraction of what’s nearby.
Beyond the nuisance, they can carry disease — and a treated yard becomes usable again for your family.
