Services
Pest Control
Our comprehensive pest control service protects properties from common household pests like cockroaches, ants, and spiders. Using environmentally responsible methods, we create customized treatment plans for both immediate elimination and long-term prevention. Quarterly treatments establish protective barriers while our technicians provide ongoing monitoring and adjustments to maintain pest-free environments year-round.
Termite Management
Specialized termite management combines the Sentricon Termite Colony Elimination System with traditional treatments. Our certified technicians install underground bait stations that eliminate entire colonies through shared consumption. This non-invasive approach provides 24/7 protection without soil disruption, effectively targeting Eastern Subterranean, Formosan, and Drywood termites that threaten property structures.
Mosquito Reduction
Professional mosquito reduction services create enjoyable outdoor spaces through targeted treatments. We apply EPA-registered solutions to breeding areas while implementing exclusion strategies that disrupt mosquito life cycles. Our barrier treatments reduce populations by 90% or more, providing protection against disease vectors like West Nile and Zika viruses while maintaining environmental safety for pets and plants.
Wildlife Removal
Humane wildlife removal addresses nuisance animals including raccoons, squirrels, and bats. Our technicians perform thorough inspections to identify entry points, then implement multi-step removal processes with exclusion barriers and habitat modifications. The service includes damage assessment, sanitization recommendations, and preventive measures to ensure permanent resolution of wildlife intrusion issues.
CL100 Inspections
CL-100 real estate inspections provide detailed termite and pest damage assessments for property transactions. Certified inspectors examine structural components for active infestations and past damage, delivering official reports meeting South Carolina regulatory requirements. The service includes digital documentation and repair recommendations to facilitate smooth real estate closings.

Ben called before he arrived and showed up on time. We were a quick work in service and I appreciate the company accommodating us on that. Ben was personable and went through the house carefully to make sure we didn't have any unwanted "visitors" inside. Thank you. Service: Cockroach extermination
