Coweta Pest Control Services with EnviroTech Exterminating Owner, Billy Howard

It seems like most residents would always be forced to use the big names in the pest control industry from Tulsa. This can be a good thing or it can be a bad thing. It all depends on the work ethic of the technician sent out. Well, it doesn’t have to be like that. I know we all want professional service, the job done with quality products and done right! These are the simple things that should come with any service from any company.

Lets talk about the other things that really matter. What about experience and knowing the products, the insects and proper identification? Insect life cycles, biology and reproductivity habits?

It doesn’t mean they do the job correctly with your safety in mind. After all, we are talking about protecting your home and family. You want somebody that’s competent in all the above!

It’s my belief that integrity still matters to most people. I also believe trust and respect go a long way in building any relationship.

Broken Arrow Pest Control Services

 

EnviroTech Pest and Wildlife Services

Every day in Broken Arrow somebody is finding out they have bed bugs, termites or perhaps some other type of pest issue. It’s my goal to help solve pest problems and provide the absolute best services money can buy. I believe being a pest control provider means we are not just here to manage pest problems but to also offer advice and tips. To help people in the community reduce pest control problems in the first place, I’d like to take a moment to list a few items that can help. Almost any homeowner can check and fix these items needed to minimize rodents, pests and insects in the home. If you prefer you can call us for all your Broken Arrow Pest Control Services needs.

1. Check the seal of the garage door. In most cases the garage will have a rubber piece that runs across the bottom and seals the door to the concrete. I find these ripped, torn, too short or missing on many new customers homes. If these are in poor condition pests like rodents, spiders, crickets, and snakes can easily make way into the garage and get access to the home.

2. Check all caulking around windows. Windows that are not sealed and properly caulked give ants and other crawling, flying insects easy entry into the home. If caulking is deteriorated, cut it out and re-caulk.

3. Check sill plates under door entry points. These should be caulked on both sides to reduce additional places pests can get in. They should sill up and provide a tight fit for the door.

4. Keep trees and bushes away from the perimeter of home. Bushes and trees that touch the home provide everything in most cases that pests need. It’s always a good idea to keep these trimmed and away from the home.

5. Keep grass trimmed and do not over water during spring and summer. Watering excessively will attract more bugs. It also reduces a pesticides ability to deal with pests by reducing its residual time.

5. Check eves and attic vents. I find these ripped, torn, sometimes even off. This allows birds, raccoons, bats, opossum and other varmint to easily get into the home and nest.

6. Keep pets water and food bowls away from the home as far as possible, Ants and other pests are attracted to the food and water. If these are left near the door, a slide door or any other entry point the pests will likely find the entry.

7. Have regular pest control services done on the property. In most cases quarterly service is perfect. If the home has a real insect pest problem then bi-monthly or even monthly services may be needed. This is especially true when dealing with cockroaches.

I sure hope these tips help minimize the pest issues you have this year. If you are in need of Broken Arrow pest control services, please consider EnviroTech Exterminating. We are professional, efficient and provide a full range of pest solution services to help any situation. Our goal is to exceed all expectations.

Ant Treatment Broken Arrow, Bixby, Coweta, Jenks

Ant Treatment Broken Arrow, Bixby, Coweta, Jenks 

Providing professional ant pest control and solutions. Call (918)282-7621 for a pest control, ant treatment service.

It is just about time for everybody to begin preparing for ant season. Spring brings in life with warmer weather, rain, everything greening up. This time of the year also brings the ants out. They forage around looking for food, water, building new colonies. Ants can get out of hand and become a true nuisance.

When you really think about ants they are truly amazing. Ants work in harmony and defend their colonies against rival ant colonies, spiders, wasps, and other insect life. They are like small armored warriors with a good for the colony goal in mind. Defend, feed, build the colony. Ants work for the better good of their colony. The feed, nurture, clean, groom, build, hunt like a single organism even though it can be a colony of thousands. Ants use pheromones to help guide workers, solder’s from point A to point B. They send out special ants that seek the food, water the colony needs just like a tracker seeking game. Once these ants find what they are looking for pheromone trails are made that allow other ants to follow. It’s absolutely amazing. Not so amazing when the pheromone trail leads into your home or pantry.

So what can be done to help control these pest ants trailing into the pantry? Well, good ant work is a slow process. I’ll give you two ways you can go with ant treatment.

  1. Fast Band Aid Fix – Using a pesticide designed to kill ants as fast as possible that come into the residual. This won’t kill off a colony but may provide some temporary relief. The products don’t usually transfer from ant to ant therefore only eliminating a small portion of the colony.
  2. Using products designed to take advantage of the ants social behavior. Ants carry the products back to the colony in the form of baits and insecticides designed to transfer from one ant to another and on and on. This method takes longer to see results but is longer lasting and provides much better control.

In extremely ant infested situations, a combination of the two methods may work best to help knock down the invaders while allowing some of the foraging ants to return to the colony carrying baits and products that transfer.  

It is highly recommended that if a watering system “Spinkler” is used, turning the system off for a 3-4 day period will help reduce the time period needed to control an ant problem. Water is the enemy when you are having ant issues.

Some ants such as carpenter ants require a more intrusive treatment. These ants live in structures usually inside walls and around window sills. They are pests that destroy wood. A more invasive treatment is needed for these ants. We can help with carpenter ants or any other type of ant issue. Sugar ants, odorous house ants are the most common house ant we see in the home but other ants are still fairly common. For a ant program that works contact EnviroTech Exterminating at (918) 282-7621 or visit us online at Ant Control Services to see more about what we can do to help.

Guaranteed Bed Bug Heat Treatment Services

Guaranteed Heat Treatment Services for Bed Bugs. Service available in Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby, Coweta, Muskogee and Tulsa metro areas.

Bed Bug Heat Treatment Service

Are we out of our minds putting a guarantee on our heat treatment services when so many other companies don’t? Maybe, just maybe we are more confident in the quality of our work. We strive to do the job correct the first time, every time.

Other companies want to charge the customer each and every time they come back for service. What if you find a bed bug two weeks after an expensive bed bug heat treatment with company X. Will company X want to charge you all over again for another service? The truth is, many of these bed bug service providers are not confident in the quality of the treatment they are providing. I have seen company after company pop up over the last 2 years. I hear it every day on the phone while talking to potential customers that used another company. It’s alway’s the same story, the first treatment is X dollars and the second is X dollars and on and on. Why would you spend the amount of money a heat treatment costs only to likely need them back? Are they going to do a good, thorough job the first time? If you do proper prep work and they do a good thorough job success should be the norm. At least this is true with a mild to average infestation. Sure, some infestations are beyond this and will require multiple treatment. This however can easily be established during the consultation. These extreme cases however are not typical. Even though we see extremely infested homes from time to time the typical home with bed bugs doesn’t wait long enough for the infestation to get to this level. Remember, nobody wants bed bugs. Most people opt to have a treatment done as soon as they realize they have a bed bug problem.

Ant Treatment Broken Arrow

Ant Treatment Broken Arrow.

     With spring drawing near ants will begin foraging doing double duty. With all the rain we receive in springtime ants can be difficult to control so we use a combination of effective tools to help combat this problem. Too much water can reduce the effectiveness of a pesticide so using a combination of soft baits and granular baits with our perimeter treatment helps infect as many ants as possible to carry back our products to the colony. Over the years we have done hundreds of ant treatments and have found our method of service to be very effective.

What makes our ant treatment or service different from other pest control companies services? We use the best products money can buy making our service more likely to be successful. The care given to a thorough and proper treatment is second to none. The job is done right every time.

How often shall a homes perimeter be treated? With longer lasting, higher quality products we see typical residual times of about 90 day’s. This means you only need service on a quarterly basis. Some things that can change this time period are excessive watering or times of excessive rain.

What does the treatment cost? Each home is different due to size, watering issues. The good news is that after you’re initial service you will be on a set pricing that lasts as long as you keep the service. No Contracts, just excellent service. As long as the treatments are done on the advised time the price doesn’t change. This makes our service a much better choice than using a company that requires you sign a commitment before you even know how good their service or program is.

If you are in need of pest control services don’t hesitate to contact us today at (918)282-7621. We want to earn you’re business and promise to do the job correct each and every time.

Termite Inspection and Treatment

Termite Inspection and Treatment Services in Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby, Coweta and Tulsa. Commercial and Residential Inspections and Treatment Services.

Termite Activity Found in Jenks, Oklahoma home hidden behind a water tank

In most real estate transactions inspections may be required such as a wood infestation report or ODAFF1. These are usually lender requirements for anybody hoping to buy a home with the help of a mortgage. In some cases a report called the NPMA-33 which is used in VA loans and some other types of loans may be needed. Other types of inspections may be Moisture Damage Reports. These can be optional and are usually used when somebody buying sees damages they want an official report on to request repairs. The reality is having a inspection for termites, for wood rot could save you money in the long run.

All inspections are visual inspections. Most homeowners will NOT allow an inspector to deface the home, remove sheetrock and so forth. What this means is the inspection is only as good as the visible evidence suggests. Termites are only usually found in a home when visible evidence is seen. Types of visible evidence we look for are tunneling in sheetrock, holes in trim, sheetrock, black or brown spotting on trim or sheetrock, tubes on walls, on trim, on concrete leading to trim. Crawl spaces are inspected as well. Once termite activity is found a termite treatment will be called for.

What does a termite treatment look like? Well, it can require drilling of slabs, trenching of soil around the structure, maybe even small holes in walls for foaming of areas infested with termites. A termite treatment professional can look at the property and suggest the necessary work required to do proper treatment. Choosing a professional that takes pride in the work they do will make for a cleaner looking treatment when all is done.

What is a full treatment? A full termite treatment is when the entire home is treated. This means the perimeter is treated.

There are also treatments considered to be partial treatments or whats known as a spot treatment. This is a treatment of a smaller portion of the structure. Spot treatments are usually not accepted as a means of treatment for a real estate purchase. They are typically done to a home already lived in that has an issue arise where the owner many not have funds available to treat the entire dwelling or structure.

Another very important thing to consider is the product being used for treatment. Lets just face it, you can put down a cheap termiticide to save some money but that usually will cost you in the long run. Why?, well a low cost product may only last 4 years, 5 years where a better quality, more expensive product could last double this amount of time or longer.

EnviroTech offers termite treatment and termite inspection services. It’s highly suggested for anybody buying a home in Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby, Coweta, Tulsa and the metro area to have a yearly inspection done. If you are buying a home and need it inspected our services can be scheduled by calling (918) 282-7621. Our specialists will need entry into the structure and will provide the report at the time of service. This is all done in digital form so all reports can be emailed immediately to the necessary parties.

 

 

Pest Control Broken Arrow

Pest Control Broken Arrow,

Exterminator services for ants, spiders, black widow, brown recluse, rodents and other pests that invade homes in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.

With Spring near pest activity will be on the rise. I wanted to take a moment to mention a couple things that can help reduce pest problems for any home or business. With spring we usually get plenty of rain so watering less will help reduce pest problems.

  1. If you have weep holes on the structure look to see if you can put a breathable material such as mesh in the weep holes. this will allow the home to breath but help reduce pests that can crawl into the holes.
  2. keep foliage trimmed away from the home.
  3. Trees should not touch any part of the home
  4. Seal off entry points. A garage door with worn or no seal allows pests easy entry. Mice can enter, spiders, crickets and other pests take advantage of easy access due to worn or insignificant sealing on doors, door jams, garage entries and sliding doors.
  5. Keep bird feeders away from home. The seeds attract rodents and other pests

These are just a few of the many things a homeowner or business can do to help minimize the pest pressure they receive. Add an EnviroTech Pest Control Service Plan to this and pests are surely to be kept at bay.

EnviroTech Exterminating is locally owned and operated. We service the Broken Arrow, Jenks, Bixby and Coweta metro areas. For service call (918)282-7621 today! EnviroTech offers No Contract Pest Control Services.
