Getting the Most Out of Your Pest Control Service

Thank you for choosing Paragon Pest Control! Now that you’ve had your pest control service, you may be wondering what happens next and how to get the most out of your treatment. Here’s a guide on what to expect in the coming weeks, tips to enhance the effectiveness of your service, and when to consider a reservice.


Post-Treatment Insect Activity: What’s Normal?

After a pest control service, it’s normal for insect activity to either increase or decrease temporarily. This can vary based on your home’s unique environment and neighborhood. Most of our customers will see a significant reduction in pest activity within 2-3 weeks. If pests are still active at the same level after this period, reach out to us for support.

We’ll follow up with you within two weeks of your service to check on the results and to see if any adjustments are needed. Additionally, our team will provide recommendations on reducing conducive conditions to help maximize the treatment’s effectiveness.


A Note on Wasps

Our pest control service guarantees that there will be no active wasp nests on your home. However, it’s essential to note that we cannot prevent wasps from entering your yard, as they are natural hunters and may still be attracted to your surroundings. This guarantee covers only nesting on your home, not wasp activity in the broader yard.


Enhancing Treatment Effectiveness: Reducing Conducive Conditions

Pest control works best when pests don’t have easy access to food, water, and shelter. Here are some steps you can take to reduce conducive conditions around your home and enhance the effectiveness of your pest control treatment:

  • Keep Drains Clean: Regularly clean drains using vinegar or products like Invade Bio Drain to reduce the buildup that pests can use as a food source.
  • Eliminate Food and Water Sources: Reducing accessible food and water is crucial for pest control. Wipe down counters, fix leaky pipes, and ensure food is stored in sealed containers.
  • Seal Entry Points: Check and seal small cracks, crevices, and gaps around windows and doors. This limits potential entry points for pests.
  • Maintain Your Yard: Regularly mow the lawn, trim trees and bushes, and keep grass short to prevent it from becoming a habitat for bugs.
  • Encourage Neighbor Participation: If your neighbors also treat their homes for pests, it helps reduce the overall pest population in the area, enhancing the effectiveness of your own service.

When to Consider a Reservice

At Paragon Pest Control, we are committed to keeping your home pest-free. Here’s when you may want to consider a reservice:

  • Minimal Reduction in Pest Activity: If you’re not seeing a significant reduction in activity within two weeks, a reservice can help address lingering issues.
  • New Mud Tubes or Wasp Nests: If you spot new mud tubes or wasp nests along your roofline or in areas around your home, contact us for a follow-up.
  • Persistent Pest Issues: If pests are still actively present at the same level as before your service, let us know, and we’ll take action to ensure your home is pest-free.
