No more jumping at sounds in the walls or wondering if that ant means thousands more are coming. When pest problems get handled right the first time, your home becomes yours again.
Your family can relax without worrying about health risks from disease-carrying ticks and mosquitoes. You save money by preventing the expensive property damage that carpenter ants and rodents cause to Michigan homes.
You stop dealing with the same pest problems over and over because we focus on prevention, not just quick fixes that wear off in a few weeks.
We’ve served Village of Clarkston since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every job, and we’ve built our reputation on doing things differently than other pest control companies.
You get the same trained technician every visit, not rotating college students who don’t know your property. We’ve earned awards from Angie’s List and Home Advisor because we understand Michigan’s unique pest challenges.
Clarkston’s historic homes dating back to 1884 create specific pest entry points that require local expertise. We know exactly which pests are active during each season and where they’re most likely to cause problems on your property.
First, we inspect your property thoroughly inside and out. We identify current pest activity, potential entry points, and conditions that attract unwanted visitors to your home.
Next, we create a personalized treatment plan based on what we found, not some cookie-cutter approach. Different pests need different solutions, and your property has unique factors that affect how we handle the problem.
We implement the treatment using integrated pest management techniques that prioritize safe, effective methods. Then we monitor results to make sure the problem is actually solved. If pests return within our guarantee period, we come back at no charge because the job isn’t done until your home stays pest-free.

Your service covers the full range of pests that challenge Clarkston properties year-round. Spring brings emerging carpenter ants and spiders. Summer means mosquitoes, ticks, and stinging insects that can carry serious diseases like Lyme disease and West Nile virus.
Fall drives mice and rats indoors as temperatures drop, while stink bugs and box elder bugs seek warm shelter. Winter pests include spiders and rodents that remain active in heated homes.
We handle everything from common household ants to complex situations requiring our specialized canine bed bug detection service. We’re among fewer than 100 companies nationwide offering this technology, giving Clarkston residents access to detection accuracy that visual inspections alone cannot match. Our mosquito programs automatically include flea and tick treatment at no extra charge for complete outdoor protection.
Carpenter ant elimination timing depends on the extent of infestation, but you’ll typically see significant reduction within the first week. Complete elimination usually takes 2-3 weeks because we target both the main colony and satellite nests.
The key difference between our approach and DIY solutions is understanding carpenter ant biology. These insects don’t eat wood like termites – they excavate it to create galleries for their colonies. Surface sprays won’t reach established colonies, but our technicians know how to locate and eliminate the entire population.
We also address the moisture issues that attract carpenter ants to begin with, like poor drainage or water-damaged wood around your foundation. This prevents them from returning next season.
You get the same experienced technician assigned to your account year after year. No strangers showing up at your door who don’t know your property or your specific pest concerns.
Most pest control companies send whoever’s available, creating inconsistency in treatment and results. Your technician learns your property’s unique challenges and adjusts treatments based on what works best for your specific situation.
We’re also one of fewer than 100 companies nationwide offering canine bed bug detection, and we include flea and tick treatment in our mosquito program at no extra charge. You get specialized services that most companies don’t offer, backed by 20 years of local experience.
Michigan’s changing seasons bring different pest challenges throughout the year, so we adjust our approach based on local patterns. Spring activates overwintering insects like carpenter ants. Summer brings mosquito breeding cycles and stinging insect activity.
Fall triggers mice and rats to seek indoor shelter as temperatures drop. Winter pests include spiders and rodents that stay active in heated homes. Your technician knows which pests are active when and where they’re most likely to cause problems.
We focus on prevention rather than just reacting to infestations. Regular service prevents these seasonal cycles from becoming major problems in your home, saving you money on emergency treatments and potential property damage.
We use integrated pest management techniques that prioritize the safest effective methods for your situation. This means using targeted applications, baits, and exclusion methods rather than broad-spectrum spraying whenever possible.
Our technicians are trained in proper application techniques and product selection. We explain what products we’re using, where we’re applying them, and any precautions you should take. Most treatments allow you and your pets to return to treated areas within a few hours.
We also offer eco-friendly treatment options for families who prefer botanical-based or low-toxicity solutions. These products are derived from natural sources but still provide effective pest control for common Michigan pests.
Our mosquito program targets both breeding sites and adult populations to reduce mosquito activity in your outdoor spaces. We treat standing water sources where mosquitoes breed, apply residual treatments to vegetation where they rest, and create barrier protection around patios and entertainment areas.
This comprehensive approach reduces mosquito populations significantly rather than just repelling them temporarily. Treatment timing follows mosquito lifecycle patterns for maximum impact – we’re not just spraying and hoping, we’re disrupting breeding cycles.
The program also includes flea and tick treatment at no additional cost because these pests often share similar outdoor habitats. This gives you protection from multiple biting pests with one service, providing better value and more comprehensive protection for your family and pets during Michigan’s outdoor season.
Pest control costs depend on your specific situation, property size, and the types of pests we’re addressing. Most Clarkston homes do well with quarterly treatments, but properties with more wooded areas or moisture issues might need more frequent attention during peak pest seasons.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden charges, and we offer price matching if you find comparable service for less from a reputable competitor. We also provide discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders as our way of showing appreciation for community service.
The real value comes from preventing problems rather than just reacting to them. When you’re not dealing with recurring pest issues, you save money on emergency treatments and potential property damage. We’d rather give you realistic expectations upfront than surprise you later with additional costs.
