Pest Authority FAQs

Pest Control

• How much does it cost?

  Prices vary by location and size of property. Give us a call at (380) 230-3181 to schedule a treatment.

• Is the product safe for pollinators and beneficial insects?

  We treat the area immediately surrounding your house, to prevent pests from entering your home. We avoid flowering or fruiting plants and trees.

• Is it safe for my pets?

  All our products are EPA-registered. We ask that you wait for the treatment to dry before using the treated area. We follow the label explicitly, and the products are approved for use in and around homes with pets.

• Is it safe for my children?

  Most products are applied into cracks and crevices and out of reach of children. Each of our applications is targeted for the pest you are having issues with. Once the treatment area is dry, you may continue to use that area. We follow the label explicitly, and the products are approved for use in homes with children.

• Do you come in my house or is it applied outside only?

  Our exclusive Barrier 360 treatment is applied around the perimeter of your home, to prevent pests from getting in. Occasionally, as with bed bugs, rodents, and some other pests, we’ll need to work inside your home as well. Barrier 360 is an exterior treatment that guards against 11 pests from entering your home. If they get in, we will come in and treat them according to our service protocols.
• What types of pests do you treat for?

  • Ants: Barrier 360 prevents interior infestation of most ants. 80% of all pests enter from the exterior of your home. Fire ants and carpenter ants will require custom service. Call us for more details.
  • Termites: Termite control and elimination require an inspection and assessment by our technician. The process and protocol for termites depends on the extent of your infestation and damage. Call us for more details.
  • Fleas: Fleas can present a challenge, and a complete inspection of the interior of your home and adjacent property is required. Call us for more details.
  • Cockroaches: We can help you take back your property from cockroaches. Our Barrier 360 treatment around the outside of your home can prevent cockroaches from entering in the first place. In certain situations, a complete inspection of the interior of your home may be necessary.
  • Rodents: Our rodent protocol varies depending on the degree of infestation and type of rodent. An extensive inspection and evaluation must be performed both in the interior and exterior of your home
  • Bees (carpenter): An exterior inspection and evaluation of the exterior of your home or property is critical to determine the extent of an infestation. We can then provide the appropriate service to eradicate the Carpenter bee infestation.
  • Wasps and hornets: We can remove wasps and hornets from outside your home. And if they do make it inside, just give us a call and we will perform additional treatments at no extra cost.
  • Spiders: Our Barrier 360 treatment will protect your home from most types of spiders, but if they do get in, we will perform an interior treatment at no extra cost.
  • Bed bugs: We will perform a full inspection and assessment of your bed bug infestation to design a treatment and prevention plan.
• What chemical do you use?

  Our exclusive Barrier 360 protocol is designed to use products according to the label and EPA-registered. If you have questions about the process or products we will use at your home, give us a call and we can discuss.
• Do I need a contract?

  We do recommend regular service frequency to maintain your pest-free environment. However, we do not require contracts. You may be required to sign a service agreement according to your state law, but the Pest Authority will never require a commitment or oblige you to the terms of a contract. You can effortlessly cancel at any time with a phone call or email.
