You shouldn’t have to wonder what’s scratching in your walls at night or worry about ants marching across your kitchen counter. When pest problems get handled right the first time, your family gets genuine peace of mind back.
No more jumping at every sound. No more avoiding your backyard because of mosquitoes. No more embarrassment when guests spot unwanted visitors.
Professional pest control means your home becomes the safe haven it should be—protected by methods that work and backed by 20 years of local experience serving Perry families.
First Choice Pest Control has been protecting Perry homes for nearly two decades. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every job, which means you’re getting someone who’s seen it all and knows exactly how to handle Michigan’s unique pest challenges.
We’re not some national chain that sends different college kids to your house every time. You get the same trained technician visit after visit—someone who learns your property and builds a pest control program that actually fits your specific situation.
Perry residents face seasonal pest pressures that change throughout the year. Spring brings carpenter ants seeking moisture-damaged wood. Summer means mosquitoes and stinging insects. Fall drives rodents indoors as temperatures drop. We adjust our approach based on these local patterns because generic pest control doesn’t work.
First, we inspect your property thoroughly—inside and out. We identify current pest activity, potential entry points, and conditions that attract unwanted visitors. This isn’t a quick walkthrough. We’re looking for the real sources of your pest problems.
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 proven methods and safe products, then monitor the 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 technician stays with you year after year, learns your property’s challenges, and adjusts treatments based on what works best for your specific situation. This consistency delivers better results than companies that send whoever’s available each time.

Your service covers the full range of pests Perry homeowners actually face. Carpenter ants, mice, spiders, mosquitoes, wasps, and other common invaders all get addressed with targeted approaches designed for Michigan’s changing seasons.
Perry properties deal with unique challenges. Spring activates carpenter ants that tunnel through wood structures. Summer brings mosquito breeding cycles and stinging insect activity. Fall triggers rodent invasions as temperatures drop and mice seek indoor shelter.
We handle specialized services most companies don’t offer. Our canine bed bug detection puts us among fewer than 100 companies nationwide with this capability. Our mosquito programs include flea and tick treatment at no extra charge because we know Michigan’s outdoor season brings multiple challenges.
Price matching ensures you get fair rates without sacrificing quality. We also provide discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders as our way of giving back to community members who have served others.
Most pest emergencies in Perry can be addressed within 24-48 hours of your call, often sooner for urgent situations like stinging insect nests or active rodent infestations. We understand that some pest problems can’t wait, especially when you’re dealing with health risks or safety concerns.
Our response time depends on the specific pest and severity of the situation. Carpenter ants damaging your home structure get priority treatment, as do any pests that pose immediate health risks to your family.
We keep our service area focused on Perry and surrounding Shiawassee County specifically so we can maintain faster response times than larger companies spread across multiple regions. When you call, you’re talking directly to our local team, not a call center, and we’ll give you a realistic timeframe right on the phone.
Perry’s location means dealing with predictable seasonal pest pressures throughout the year. Spring brings carpenter ants emerging from winter hiding spots, seeking moisture-damaged wood for nesting. These are particularly problematic because they can cause structural damage similar to termites.
Summer means peak activity for mosquitoes, wasps, various ant species, and other crawling insects. This is when comprehensive outdoor treatment becomes most important for family comfort and safety.
Fall drives rodents indoors as temperatures drop. Mice and rats become particularly active in early to mid-fall as they search for warm shelter before winter arrives. We also see stink bugs, box elder bugs, and other overwintering insects seeking indoor shelter during this time.
Yes, you get the same experienced technician for every service visit. This isn’t a policy we advertise just to sound good—it’s how we actually operate because it delivers better results for you.
Most pest control companies send whoever’s available. Different technician every time, different approach every visit, no consistency in treatment or results. You end up explaining your problem over and over to people who don’t know your property.
Your technician learns your property’s unique challenges and adjusts treatments based on what works best for your specific situation. They know which areas need extra attention, understand your family’s concerns, and can spot potential problems before they become major infestations.
Most pest problems see significant improvement within the first week, but complete elimination depends on what we’re dealing with. Ants and cockroaches typically respond quickly to treatment, while rodent problems might take 2-3 weeks to fully resolve as we eliminate the entire population.
We don’t give you false promises about overnight solutions. Real pest control takes time to work properly, and rushing the process often means the problem comes back. We’d rather give you realistic expectations upfront than surprise you later with bad news.
The timeline also depends on how extensive the infestation is and whether there are conditions around your property that keep attracting pests. We’ll give you a clear timeline during our initial inspection based on your specific situation, not generic estimates.
Yes, we use integrated pest management techniques that prioritize the safest effective methods for your family. 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. Since we have children and pets too, we understand your concerns and will provide answers to any questions about our procedures.
We’re one of fewer than 100 companies in the United States offering canine bed bug detection. Our trained detection dogs can find bed bugs at all life stages—even single eggs—with over 95% accuracy, while human visual inspection alone only catches about 30% of bed bug infestations.
Dogs can smell bed bug pheromones at concentrations humans cannot detect, even in tiny cracks and crevices. This method finds infestations in early stages when treatment is more effective and less expensive.
Our detection dogs can locate bed bugs that visual inspections might miss, including early-stage infestations. This means we can find problems before they become severe infestations, saving you money and reducing treatment complexity. Traditional visual inspections often miss bed bugs until populations are well-established.
