Residential Services
Everyone wants to live in a safe and beautiful home, a home free from termites and other pests. Rousselle Exterminators can help. Not only can we treat your problem areas, but we can also inspect your home and offer additional advice and preventative measures that will allow you to reduce the risk of further infestation. But, most importantly, we can design a maintenance program suited to your needs.
Rousselle Exterminators offers a number of services for residential properties, whether owner or tenant occupied.
Termite Control Services
Your house is not only your home, it is also an investment. Rousselle Exterminators can help protect this investment from the costly damage done by termites. We offer a number of termite-related services, including:
- Free estimates to qualified homeowners
- Escrow inspections and reports
- Local chemical treatments
- Fumigations
- Borate treatments
- Orange Oil (XT-2000) treatments
- Home Repairs
Each termite infestation is as different as each home. In order to assess the extent of the infestation and recommend treatment solutions, we need to come out and inspect your home. This inspection includes looking at all visible and accessible areas for evidence of termite infestation, including eaves, facia, subareas, attics, interior window and door frames, etc. Once we have determined the type of infestation as well as the areas infested we can propose a number of solutions to fit your needs and concerns.
General Pest Control Services
Rousselle Exterminators offers a variety of different chemical treatments for the following pests:
- Ants
- Spiders
- Roaches
- Crickets
- Fleas
- Earwigs
- Bees and Wasps
- Mice and Rats
(We are sorry but we do not currently offer services for the control of gophers, squirrels or bedbugs.)
Initial Treatment
General pest control services usually begin with a combined exterior and interior treatment during which a variety of residual insecticides and/or baits may be applied in and around your home in order to trap and kill existing pests while creating a barrier to keep new pests away. Occupants are given instructions in order to prepare their home for this treatment. Instructions vary depending on the type of pest and extent of the infestation. Furthermore, all persons and pets will need to vacate the structure for approximately 4 hours after the treatment has been applied.
Maintenance
Pest control treatments are guaranteed for a minimum of 30 days from the date of application. Since chemicals will breakdown over time, we offer monthly and bi-monthly pest control maintenance. This service generally consists of an exterior treatment in order to keep the chemical barrier between the pests and your home. However, should the pests cross this barrier we will re-treat interior areas at no additional charge.
Preventative measures
We can do a number of things to eliminate your termite and pest infestations. But there are a number of measures that you can take to help minimize infestations. You can help by:
Keeping them homeless
- Seal cracks and crevices where pests can get into your home
- Keep vent screens and crawl space accesses secure
- Get rid of stacks of newspaper, papers, bags, and cardboard boxes that make good homes for pests
- Keep soil level low around the home’s perimeter
- Keep wood piles and debris away from the exterior of the home, including the subarea
Keeping them hungry
- Keep a tight lid on trash cans and empty them often
- Store food (including pet foods) in tightly sealed containers
- Wipe up spills and crumbs right away
- Clean your dirty dishes right after eating
- Insulate in-ground wood posts with concrete to protect from wood-destroying pests and organisms
