Hear from Our Customers
You wake up knowing your family is safe from disease-carrying rodents. Your kids play in the yard without dodging wasp nests. You sleep soundly without bed bugs disrupting your rest.
That’s what effective pest control looks like. Not the revolving door of different technicians who don’t know your property. Not the generic spray-and-pray approach that barely lasts a month.
You get a technician who learns your home’s trouble spots. Who remembers that hornets always build near your back deck. Who knows exactly where mice try to enter each fall. This consistency means better results and fewer repeat problems.
Roger founded First Choice Pest Control in 2005 with 26 years of pest control experience. Our family-owned business has been protecting Birch Run homes through every season and every pest challenge.
We earned our reputation by doing what others won’t. Keeping the same technician with customers year after year. Offering canine bed bug detection when most companies rely on guesswork. Including flea and tick treatment with mosquito programs at no extra charge.
Your neighbors in Birch Run’s rural areas know the challenges. Wooded properties attract everything from carpenter ants to raccoons. Seasonal pest surges that overwhelm DIY efforts. We understand these local patterns and adjust treatments accordingly.
Your technician starts with a complete property inspection. We identify active pest problems, potential entry points, and contributing factors like moisture or food sources.
Treatment gets customized to your specific situation. Ant problems require different approaches than rodent infestations. Wasp nest removal needs immediate attention while preventive treatments work for long-term control.
Follow-up visits ensure treatments worked and catch new problems early. Your technician tracks what works best for your property and adjusts the program as needed. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.
You stay in control throughout the process. No binding contracts. No surprise charges. Just effective pest control that adapts to your needs and budget.

Your service includes targeted treatments for ants, spiders, rodents, bed bugs, and seasonal pests. Commercial properties get discreet management that won’t disrupt business operations.
Birch Run’s location brings unique challenges. Rural properties deal with more wildlife pressure. Wooded areas create ideal conditions for carpenter ants and moisture-loving pests. Seasonal temperature swings drive rodents indoors each fall.
Our mosquito program automatically includes flea and tick treatment because outdoor pest problems rarely exist in isolation. Why pay extra for services that should work together from the start?
Emergency response handles urgent problems like wasp nests threatening family safety or bed bug infestations disrupting sleep. Some pest problems can’t wait for regular scheduling.
Emergency pest problems get same-day or next-day response in most cases. Stinging insects pose immediate safety risks, especially for children and anyone with allergies.
Your technician arrives equipped to locate and eliminate nests safely. This isn’t just spraying from a distance and hoping for the best. Complete nest elimination prevents the colony from rebuilding in the same location.
We include inspection of your entire property perimeter. Hornets and wasps often build multiple nests, and finding them all prevents future problems. Your technician explains prevention strategies to reduce attractive conditions around your home.
Yes, consistency is fundamental to effective pest control. Your assigned technician learns your property’s unique challenges, seasonal patterns, and what treatments work best.
Most companies send whoever’s available. Different technician every time means explaining your problems repeatedly to people who don’t know your property. You end up with inconsistent treatments and unpredictable results.
Your technician builds expertise about your specific situation over time. We know where pests typically enter, which areas need extra attention, and how to adjust treatments based on seasonal changes. This knowledge translates directly into better pest control outcomes.
We use trained canine detection for bed bugs, making us one of under 100 companies nationwide with this capability. Dogs detect bed bugs with 95% accuracy compared to visual inspections at around 30%.
Bed bugs hide in places human inspectors often miss. Inside electrical outlets, behind picture frames, in carpet edges. Dogs smell them regardless of hiding spots, finding infestations in early stages when treatment is most effective.
Early detection saves you money and stress. Small infestations require less intensive treatment than full-blown problems. The canine inspection identifies exactly where bed bugs are active, so treatment targets the right areas from the start.
Rural properties require different strategies than suburban pest control. More wildlife pressure, multiple entry points, and seasonal migration patterns create ongoing challenges.
Your technician starts with comprehensive exclusion work. Sealing entry points prevents new rodents from replacing the ones we eliminate. This includes areas other companies miss like utility penetrations, foundation gaps, and roof-line vulnerabilities.
We customize trapping strategies to your property layout and rodent species. Mice require different approaches than rats or squirrels. Placement locations, bait selection, and monitoring schedules all factor into successful rodent control. Follow-up visits track effectiveness and adjust the program as needed.
Yes, we provide discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. These community members deserve recognition for their service and contribution to Birch Run.
The discount applies to both one-time services and ongoing pest control programs. No complicated qualification process or hidden restrictions. Just honest appreciation for those who’ve served our community and country.
Military families understand the value of reliable service and attention to detail. Senior citizens often deal with fixed incomes and deserve fair pricing for essential services like pest control. These discounts reflect our commitment to serving everyone in the Birch Run community.
Our mosquito program includes flea and tick treatment at no extra charge. Outdoor pest problems rarely exist in isolation, so comprehensive treatment makes more sense than piecemeal services.
Treatment targets breeding areas around your property including standing water, landscaping, and areas where mosquitoes rest during the day. The program runs through mosquito season with regular applications to maintain protection.
Birch Run’s rural setting creates ideal mosquito breeding conditions. Wooded areas, seasonal water collection, and wildlife activity all contribute to mosquito pressure. Your technician adjusts treatment timing and locations based on your property’s specific conditions and seasonal mosquito activity patterns.
