Left untreated, an invasion can become unmanageable. It may even threaten the structure of your home or the health of your family.

Research the Company's Reputation

Your first step is to research the companies in your area that provide the services you need. Research each company's background and reputation, looking at the experience and long term stability of the company. Look on the Internet, in a phone book and even the advertising section of your local newspaper.
The Mississippi Department of Agriculture's, Bureau of Plant Industry is the governmental body that regulates pest control companies. There are State regulations requiring licensing, bonding and insurance for pest control companies. Check for any disciplinary or enforcement actions against the companies. Contact the Better Business Bureau by phone or email. Ask if the companies have any complaints filed against them. Find out if the company is a member of any professional pest control associations or organizations. Ask friends, family and businesses in the area who they use.

Types of Services

Contact the companies directly.

Ask them what kind of services they provide. Does the company provide environmentally friendly and effective pest solutions for situations involving pets and children?
Ask if they provide a full range of services, like if they provide interior and exterior services.
Does the company practice IPM (Integrated Pest Management ) which involves inspecting the property, monitoring and identifying pests, treating the pest, as well as making or recommending physical changes to limit current or future pests?
Do they offer baiting or physical controls as well as chemical services?
What types of guarantee does the company provide to stand behind their work?

Prices

Now, ask the service providers for more detailed information about prices. People often spend as much or more money on do it yourself products, than the amount for which you could hire a professional.
The company you choose should do a free, full inspection of the property and quote prices before providing services.
Listen to their sales pitch and ask questions. Reliable, reputable business should always answer your questions honestly.
Don't confuse price and value. The cheapest is not always the best value.
Finally, trust your instincts. If the workers seem inexperienced, or you don't trust their information, or the pitch seems too high pressured, look elsewhere.

A quality pest control company will not only help you with your current situation, it will also help prevent future flare-ups. You can take comfort in knowing that a trained professional is taking care of your family and property.
