The advantage of using an individual owner-operated pest control service, as opposed to one of the large corporations is the personalized attention you receive along with not getting lost in the shuffle. Matt has seen this from both sides of the equation, having worked for two of the largest pest control organizations before founding Ants Etc. in 1998. When I worked for the large companies, we had different customers every day and there was not a lot of personal attention paid to any one individual.
The word "termite" can conjure up a natural reaction of cringing and then possibly panic. After all, a termite infestation can be devastating for any building, let alone your own home. Your family and your life are firmly planted in that house and termites threaten that. If you don't know much about the small and mighty pests, you may not be all that concerned and think, "what can a tiny bug do to my big house?" But that's the thing - it's usually not just one termite; it's a nest of termites. Because they eat their way through the foundation of your home, structural integrity and safety are a major concern.

None of us wants our home or business to be plagued by pests. It is unsightly and unsanitary. Insects and rodents carry in a variety of germs and bacteria that can be quite harmful to us humans-especially the elderly, young, or those with existing medical conditions.
No one wants pests in their home. Seeing bugs can sometimes make it appear that your home is unclean when that couldn't be further from the truth. Insects and pests will find a way in, no matter how often you mop or dust. But what's worse than seeing the bugs is actually living with them. Those creepy critters can hide almost anywhere, sneaking into cabinets, carpet, drawers and bathtubs when you least expect it. So what's the best way to keep pests at bay?
