Howell Exterminator Services

Family-Owned Since 2005

We’ve been protecting Howell families for 20 years. Roger, our owner, brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every job – not just managing from an office, but actually understanding what works in Michigan’s unique pest environment.

We’re not the biggest company in town, and that’s exactly why you’ll get better service. You’ll work with the same technician year after year. Someone who knows your property, remembers your specific pest challenges, and treats your home like their own.

We’ve earned recognition from Angie’s List and Home Advisor because we do what we say we’ll do, when we say we’ll do it.

Professional Extermination Process

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we inspect your entire property – inside and out – to identify exactly what pests you’re dealing with and where they’re getting in. Most companies skip this step and just start spraying, which is why their treatments don’t last.

Next, we create a customized treatment plan based on what we found. If you’ve got carpenter ants, we handle them differently than pavement ants. If it’s rodents, we seal entry points instead of just setting traps and hoping.

Then we eliminate the current infestation using targeted treatments that are safe for your family and pets. We don’t use one-size-fits-all approaches because different pests require different solutions.

Finally, we set up ongoing protection to prevent future problems. Most pest issues in Howell are seasonal – ants in spring, wasps in summer, rodents in fall. We know the patterns and stay ahead of them.

What You Actually Get

Every service includes a thorough inspection, targeted treatment, and follow-up protection. We handle everything from common household pests like ants and spiders to more serious problems like bed bugs and rodent infestations.

In Howell, we see a lot of seasonal pest patterns. Spring brings ant invasions as they wake up and start foraging. Summer means wasp and hornet activity peaks. Fall is when rodents start looking for warm places to spend winter – usually your attic or basement.

We also offer specialized services you won’t find everywhere, like canine bed bug detection. We’re one of under 100 companies in the U.S. with this capability. Plus, our mosquito program includes flea and tick treatment at no extra charge – something that matters when you’ve got kids and pets playing in the yard.

Most pest problems start showing results within 24-48 hours of treatment, but complete elimination depends on what you’re dealing with. Ants and most crawling insects are usually gone within a week. Rodent problems take 2-3 weeks because we need to seal entry points and eliminate the entire population. Wasps and hornets are handled immediately – we can often take care of active nests the same day you call. For bed bugs, expect 2-3 treatments spaced about two weeks apart for complete elimination. The key is proper identification and treatment. We don’t guess – we inspect first, then treat based on what we actually find.
No contracts required. We’ve been in business for 20 years because we do good work, not because we trap people in agreements they can’t get out of. Most of our customers choose ongoing service because Michigan’s pest problems are seasonal and year-round protection makes sense. But you’re never locked in. If you want to stop service, just let us know. We also offer one-time treatments for specific problems. Got a wasp nest that needs immediate attention? We’ll take care of it without requiring you to sign up for anything else.
You get the same experienced technician every visit instead of whoever happens to be available that day. This means someone who knows your property, remembers your specific pest challenges, and builds a relationship with you over time. We also don’t use part-time college students. Every technician has real experience and ongoing training. Roger, our owner, has 26 years in the field and still works directly with customers. Plus, we offer services you won’t find everywhere – like canine bed bug detection and price matching for reasonable competitor rates. We also provide discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders because we believe in supporting our community.
Absolutely. We use integrated pest management techniques that prioritize the safest effective methods first. Most of our treatments are applied to exterior areas where pests enter, not where your family spends time. When interior treatment is needed, we use products specifically designed to be safe around people and pets when applied correctly. We’ll explain exactly what we’re using and any precautions you should take. We also time our treatments around your schedule. If you need to keep pets inside for a few hours after exterior treatment, we’ll work with you to make that happen.
Pricing depends on your specific situation – the size of your property, what pests you’re dealing with, and how extensive the problem is. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges. One-time treatments typically range from $150-400 depending on the pest and scope of work. Ongoing protection programs are usually $40-100 per visit, with most customers choosing quarterly or bi-monthly service. We also offer price matching for reasonable competitor rates and discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. The best part? No binding contracts, so you’re never stuck paying for service you don’t want.
Howell’s location and climate create perfect conditions for several pest problems. Ants are probably our most common call – carpenter ants, pavement ants, and odorous house ants all thrive here. Spring and early summer are peak ant season. Rodents are a major issue, especially in fall when mice and rats start looking for warm winter shelter. We also see a lot of wasp and hornet activity during summer months, particularly around decks and outdoor structures. Mosquitoes are active from May through October, and with all the lakes and wooded areas around Howell, they can make outdoor activities miserable. We also handle bed bug problems, spider infestations, and occasional wildlife issues like bats or squirrels in attics.
