Professional Pest Extermination Process

Thorough Inspection, Targeted Treatment, Lasting Results

First, we conduct a comprehensive inspection of your property, identifying not just active pest problems but the conditions that attract them. This isn’t a quick walkthrough—it’s a detailed assessment of entry points, moisture issues, and breeding areas.

Next comes targeted treatment using integrated pest management techniques. We don’t just spray and hope. Each treatment is customized to your specific pest issues and property layout, focusing on elimination at the source rather than surface-level fixes.

Finally, we establish ongoing protection with personalized programs that adapt to seasonal changes. Your same technician returns regularly, monitoring for new activity and adjusting treatments as needed. You get consistent service from someone who knows your property’s unique challenges.

Comprehensive Pest Control Solutions

More Than Basic Pest Control

Beyond standard pest elimination, First Choice offers specialized services that most companies don’t provide. Our canine bed bug detection service puts us among fewer than 100 companies nationwide with this capability, giving you certainty about infestations that are notoriously difficult to locate.

Michigan residents deal with specific challenges like box elder bugs clustering on home exteriors, carpenter ants damaging wooden structures, and the state’s growing tick populations that carry Lyme disease. Our treatments address these regional pest pressures with methods proven effective in Michigan’s climate.

You also get practical benefits like price matching against reasonable competitors, discounts for seniors and veterans, and no binding contracts. Our mosquito control programs automatically include flea and tick treatment at no extra charge—something that matters when you’re dealing with Michigan’s outdoor pest season.

What pests are most common in Kerr Hill, Michigan?

Kerr Hill residents typically encounter ants, spiders, rodents (mice and rats), stink bugs, and various seasonal pests like box elder bugs and Asian lady beetles. Michigan’s climate also supports growing tick populations, which health officials identify as the state’s most concerning pest due to Lyme disease risks. Carpenter ants are particularly problematic in wooded areas, while moisture-loving pests like centipedes and millipedes thrive in Michigan’s humid conditions. Seasonal influxes of wasps, hornets, and yellow jackets also pose stinging risks during warmer months. Each pest requires different treatment approaches, which is why professional identification and targeted treatment plans are essential for effective control.

How quickly can you respond to pest emergencies?

Response times depend on the specific situation and current schedule, but we prioritize urgent pest problems that pose immediate health or safety risks. Stinging insect nests near entryways, active rodent infestations, or bed bug discoveries typically receive same-day or next-day attention. For non-emergency situations like preventive treatments or minor ant problems, appointments are usually available within a few days. Our established customer base allows for efficient scheduling, and we maintain flexibility for urgent situations. The advantage of working with a local company is direct communication with decision-makers who understand when situations require immediate action versus standard scheduling.

Do you guarantee your pest control treatments?

Yes, we stand behind our work with service guarantees that vary based on the specific pest and treatment type. Our integrated pest management approach focuses on long-term solutions rather than quick fixes, which allows us to offer meaningful guarantees. For ongoing service programs, if pests return between scheduled treatments, we’ll return to address the issue at no additional charge. One-time treatments typically include a specific warranty period during which we’ll retreat if the targeted pest problem persists. The guarantee details are explained clearly before treatment begins, so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long. Our goal is complete customer satisfaction, not just temporary pest suppression.

What makes your bed bug detection service different?

We use specially trained canine detection, which is significantly more accurate than visual inspections alone. Dogs can detect bed bug scent even in very early infestations when only a few bugs are present, and they can pinpoint exact locations within rooms. This service puts us among fewer than 100 companies nationwide offering canine bed bug detection. The dogs can identify infestations in areas that are difficult to inspect thoroughly, like inside walls, behind furniture, or in cluttered spaces. Early detection means less expensive treatment and prevents infestations from spreading throughout the home. The canine detection service provides certainty about the extent of the problem before treatment begins, ensuring more targeted and effective solutions.

How do you handle Michigan's seasonal pest changes?

Michigan’s distinct seasons create predictable pest patterns that we address with proactive seasonal programs. Spring brings carpenter ant activity and early mosquito breeding, summer intensifies stinging insect problems, fall sees rodents seeking indoor shelter, and winter creates opportunities for comprehensive interior treatments. Our ongoing service programs adjust treatment focus and timing based on these seasonal patterns. For example, exterior perimeter treatments intensify before fall rodent season, while stinging insect monitoring increases during summer months. The same technician returning to your property year after year learns your specific seasonal challenges—whether that’s particular areas where ants emerge each spring or spots where wasps consistently build nests each summer. This consistency allows for increasingly effective preventive measures.

What should I expect during the initial pest inspection?

The initial inspection involves a thorough examination of both interior and exterior areas, focusing on current pest activity, potential entry points, and conditions that attract pests. This includes checking basements, crawl spaces, attics, and outdoor areas where pests commonly nest or enter. Your technician will identify specific pest species present, assess the extent of any infestations, and note environmental factors like moisture issues, food sources, or structural gaps that contribute to pest problems. We’ll also discuss your specific concerns and any areas where you’ve noticed activity. Following the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed explanation of findings and a customized treatment plan that addresses both immediate pest issues and long-term prevention. The inspection typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on property size and complexity of pest issues discovered.
