You shouldn’t have to check your pantry for droppings before making breakfast. Or wonder if that scratching sound in the walls means mice are chewing through your electrical wiring. When pests take over, your home stops feeling safe.
Professional pest control fixes that. Your kitchen stays clean without constant vigilance. Your family sleeps through the night without scratching sounds from the attic. Properties near the Flint River or along M-21 stay protected from seasonal mosquito swarms and carpenter ant invasions that target older Michigan homes.
With the right treatment approach, you get lasting protection that addresses the root cause. Not just spraying visible pests and hoping they don’t come back. You can focus on enjoying your home instead of defending it from invaders.
Since 2005, we’ve served families throughout Lapeer County. Roger’s 26 years of hands-on experience means he’s seen every pest problem this area throws at homes. We’re not part-time college students learning on your property. We’re certified professionals who’ve earned recognition from Angie’s List and Home Advisor.
You get the same trained technician assigned to your property year after year. They learn your home’s layout, understand where pests enter, and catch problems before they become expensive emergencies. No strangers showing up who don’t know your history.
Lapeer’s location between agricultural land and the Flint River creates unique pest pressure. Spring brings carpenter ants emerging from winter. Summer means mosquitoes breeding near water. Fall drives field mice from surrounding farms into homes along the courthouse square and newer subdivisions off West Genesee Street. We adjust our approach based on what’s actually happening in your neighborhood.
We start with a complete property inspection. Inside your home, outside the perimeter, crawl spaces, attic access points, foundation cracks. We identify active pest activity, entry points they’re using, and conditions attracting them to your specific location.
Treatment focuses on integrated pest management. That means sealing entry points first, eliminating breeding sites, and applying targeted treatments where pests actually live and travel. Not just spraying baseboards and hoping for the best. We address the source of your problem.
Ongoing monitoring keeps you protected as seasons change. Your assigned technician returns on schedule, checks for new activity, and adjusts treatment based on current pest pressure. If anything breaks through between scheduled visits, we come back at no extra charge. You’re covered year-round.

Your service covers Michigan’s most common invaders:
Homes in Lapeer face specific challenges. Mature trees throughout neighborhoods from downtown to North Saginaw Street create ideal conditions for carpenter ants. Proximity to agricultural areas means seasonal pest migration from fields. Older housing stock around the courthouse square has accumulated entry points over decades.
We also offer services most companies don’t. Our canine bed bug detection puts us among fewer than 100 companies nationwide with this capability. Dogs detect infestations in early stages when treatment is easier and less expensive. Our mosquito programs include flea and tick treatment at no extra charge. We price match reasonable competitor rates, and seniors, veterans, and first responders receive special discounts.
Most Lapeer homes do well with quarterly service plans, though cost depends on your property size, current pest pressure, and specific issues you’re facing. Properties with wooded lots or moisture problems may need more frequent attention during peak seasons.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work. No hidden charges or surprise fees. Seniors, veterans, and first responders receive discounts as our way of supporting the community. We also price match if you find comparable service from a licensed competitor for less.
Preventive service costs less than emergency treatments. When you’re not dealing with recurring infestations, you save money on multiple one-time visits and avoid potential property damage from pests left unchecked.
Carpenter ants top the list in spring, especially in homes with moisture issues or wood-to-soil contact. They don’t eat wood like termites, but they excavate galleries that compromise structural integrity over time.
Mice and rats become urgent problems in fall as temperatures drop. They squeeze through openings as small as a dime, seeking warmth and food before Michigan winter sets in. Field mice from surrounding agricultural areas migrate into residential neighborhoods.
Summer brings mosquitoes breeding near the Flint River and standing water, plus stinging insects like wasps and yellow jackets building nests. Spiders, ants, and occasional invaders like boxelder bugs appear year-round depending on conditions.
No, homeowners don’t need permits to receive pest control services in Lapeer. The permit requirements apply to the pest control company, not to you as the property owner.
What you should verify is that your pest control provider holds proper Michigan Department of Agriculture licensing. Commercial applicators must be licensed and carry certification cards. We maintain all required state licensing and insurance coverage.
For wildlife issues like bats or raccoons, different regulations apply. Bats are protected species in Michigan, so removal must follow specific humane exclusion methods during legal seasons. Licensed wildlife control requires separate permits from Michigan DNR.
Most situations get addressed within 24-48 hours of your call. Urgent problems like active wasp nests near entrances or rodent activity in food storage areas often receive same-day or next-day service.
Response time depends on the specific pest and severity. Carpenter ants damaging your home structure get priority treatment, as do any pests posing immediate health risks. We keep our service area focused on Lapeer County so we can respond faster than larger companies spread across multiple regions.
When you call, you’re talking directly to our local team who can make decisions immediately. No call center transfers or waiting for corporate approval. We assess your situation and give you a realistic timeframe.
Modern pest control products are EPA-approved and safe when applied correctly by licensed professionals. We use targeted treatments in specific areas where pests live and travel, not broadcast spraying throughout your home.
Our integrated pest management approach prioritizes non-chemical methods first. Sealing entry points, removing attractants, and using traps reduces the need for chemical treatments. When pesticides are necessary, we apply them in cracks, crevices, and exterior barriers where pets and children don’t have direct contact.
We provide clear instructions about any precautions needed before and after treatment. Most applications allow you to return home within a few hours. If you prefer eco-friendly options, we offer alternative products with lower toxicity profiles.
The best company for you depends on what you value most. If you want the same technician building expertise about your specific property instead of rotating strangers, that narrows your options significantly.
Look for Michigan Department of Agriculture licensing, proper insurance coverage, and verifiable local experience. Check reviews for patterns about response time, problem-solving ability, and whether they actually eliminate pests or just treat symptoms.
We’ve served Lapeer County for 20 years with the same-technician approach, canine bed bug detection, and guaranteed callbacks between visits. But verify any company’s credentials before hiring. Ask to see licensing, request references, and confirm they understand Michigan’s seasonal pest patterns and regulations.
