Pest Control FAQ for Rochester Homeowners

How often should Rochester homeowners get pest control?
Given Rochester's lake-effect snow from lake ontario averaging 99 inches per year, most homeowners benefit from pest control at least once a year. Ice dam prevention and removal (October–April) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Rochester most need pest control?
Victorian and Colonial homes in East Avenue and Park Avenue neighborhoods and Brick bungalows throughout Monroe County are the most common home types in Rochester and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How long does pest control treatment last?
Initial treatments typically last 30–90 days. Most homeowners opt for quarterly service plans that maintain a continuous protective barrier throughout the year.
Is pest control safe for my children and pets?
Yes. We offer a range of treatment options including low-toxicity and natural products. Our technicians will advise on any necessary precautions after application — typically staying off treated surfaces for 30–60 minutes while they dry.
What pests do you treat?
We treat ants, cockroaches, spiders, scorpions, wasps, mosquitoes, termites, rodents, and more. Treatment plans are customized based on the specific pests common in your area.
Do I need to leave my home during treatment?
For standard exterior and interior perimeter treatments, you don't need to leave. Some more intensive treatments may require temporary vacating — your technician will advise you in advance.
Will one treatment be enough?
One treatment can eliminate an active infestation, but ongoing protection requires periodic re-treatment. We recommend quarterly service to maintain an effective barrier and prevent re-infestation.
