We’re The Experts On Home Pest Control for Ants & More
Your home is a place you’re supposed to feel safe and protected from outside critters. Not only are uninvited pests annoying, but they can become a health concern and cause damage to your home’s structure when they make their way inside. If you have noticed evidence of pests nesting, dead bugs in your home, damage to wood, or strange odors in your home, you might be facing an insect infestation. Our pest control team has an extensive, multi-step process to ensure we accurately diagnose the problem and the full extent of the infestation. While some pest control companies might treat your home just once, we exterminate and put protection plans in place that target your home’s vulnerable areas. Our residential pest control services can take care of several different types of insects and pests, including:
Ants, Centipedes, Crickets, Flying insects, Mice, Roaches, Pantry and Fabric Pests, Spiders, Scorpions and Wasps.
Below, we have answered some of the most frequently asked questions we get about our residential pest control services.

What Should You Look For in a Pest Control Company?
When you’re looking for a high-quality pest control company in your area, there are a few things you should look for. Does this company have good reviews? Are their services guaranteed? Do they use safe and reliable methods? A trusted residential pest control company will not only have the good reviews to back up their claims, but they will guarantee their services and implement prevention methods to keep pests away for good. One of the biggest concerns customers have when hiring a pest control company is whether they use safe methods to get rid of pests and keep them away. At Midstate Termite & Pest Control, the safety of your family is our top priority, which is why we use safe and effective pest control methods.
Is Pest Control Safe For Pets and Kids?
When you work with trusted and licensed professionals, residential pest control is completely safe for you and your family. In fact, trying to use various pest control products you may have picked up from your local store is potentially more dangerous than professional services by an experienced company.
How Long Does Pest Control Take to Work?
For pest control to be successful and keep uninvited visitors away for good, it’s recommended to have regular services from a professional team. When you have a residential pest control service done, you will start to see the effects of treatment almost immediately. If you are still noticing pest problems after a few days, it’s best to check in with us. Bad infestations may take additional treatments.
Does DIY Pest Control Work?
DIY pest control can be dangerous for you and others living in your home. Store-bought products can be filled with chemicals and when they’re applied without a professional’s guidance, this can be dangerous for you and your family. In addition, homemade DIY remedies are rarely strong enough to control a serious pest problem. Professional pest control companies focus on prevention, safety, and effectiveness.

What Are The Benefits of Residential Pest Control Services?
Homeowners don’t want to deal with pests in their home and all the issues that can come with it. If you want to prevent pests before they turn into an infestation, quarterly pest control is a good idea. When your property is routinely inspected by a technician, you can trust that any pest problems are prevented before they have a change to begin. Regular residential pest control services also save you from costly damages to your home and the dangers of dealing with an infestation in the future.

Do I Need to Prepare My Home Before a Pest Control Service?
Whether you’re anticipating a pest inspection or a treatment service to get rid of pests in your home, you may be wondering if you need to prepare for your exterminator’s visit. When working with certified experts like Midstate Termite & Pest Control, you will be provided with a list of steps to take beforehand to get your property ready. We will walk you through the whole process, from preparation to what you can expect after the treatment is complete.
Are All Exterminators Licensed and Insured?
A trustworthy pest control company should always be able to provide proof of their licenses and insurance papers when asked. It’s crucial that your trusted company has liability insurance to protect you against any further damage that may be caused to your property during the extermination process. Unfortunately, this isn’t a given with every company. At Midstate Termite & Pest Control, we are happy to provide proof of our accreditations and licenses upon request.
Do I Need Pest Control Services?
Unfortunately, pests are a reality for many Middle Tennessee residents. If you want to stay safe from the threat of pests, it’s important to get ahead of the game and reach out to your local pest control experts for prevention, as well as extermination. We will be happy to provide a thorough inspection of your property if you suspect a residential pest problem.
