1. What types of pests do you treat at Blue Duck Lawn Care?

 We handle a wide range of pests, including general house pests (ants, spiders, millipedes, centipedes, silverfish, earwigs, etc.), rodents (mice), moles, voles, and mosquitoes. Our comprehensive services ensure your home is protected from various unwanted intruders.

2. Are your pest control treatments safe for children and pets?

Yes, all of our products are EPA tested and approved. They are entirely safe once they have dried. Our primary interior product is 100% natural and organic. For tougher infestations, we may use a stronger, non-organic synthetic product if needed. Our outdoor treatments are very safe and include products that are approved for use in commercial kitchens.

3. How much do your pest control services cost?

Our services start with an initial treatment that has a standalone price, covering both inside and outside of your property for a thorough job. Afterward, we offer a 12-month subscription agreement, including proactive treatments and a 100% guarantee with unlimited re-treatments at no additional cost if needed.

4. Do you offer a guarantee for your pest control services?

Yes, all of our pest control solutions come with a guarantee. While the warranty periods may vary, they all include re-treatments if we cannot solve the problem initially, ensuring your satisfaction and peace of mind.

5. How often should customers have pest control services performed?

The frequency of services depends on the type of pest. For general house pests, quarterly services after the initial full treatment are sufficient. However, for mosquitoes and rodents, monthly services are recommended to maintain effective control.

6. What should customers expect during a pest control treatment?

During an initial general house pest service, we will schedule an appointment, and you will need to be home to allow us inside. We will treat both the inside and outside of your home. The exterior treatment includes the eaves and foundation, which will last up to 90 days, as well as the lawn.

7. Do customers need to leave their home during the pest control treatment?

No, customers do not need to leave their home. However, pets and children should be kept away from the treated areas until they are dry, which typically takes less than 30 minutes.

8. Are your pest control methods environmentally friendly?

We prioritize eco-friendly products and practices. In cases where eco-friendly products are not sufficient, we inform customers and seek their approval to use more powerful, non-eco-friendly products if necessary, ensuring effective pest control while considering environmental impact.

9. How can customers prevent pests from returning after treatment?

To prevent pests from returning, homeowners should eliminate food particles from floors, tables, stoves, sinks, etc., fix leaky pipes to remove water sources, and seal any potential entry points. These steps help create an environment that is less attractive to pests seeking food, water, warmth, and shelter.

10. How soon can you come to a customer’s property after they contact you?

We strive to respond promptly and will be out to your property within five business days of your accepted request, typically much faster. Our scheduling depends on both our availability and the client’s, ensuring a timely and convenient service.
