Residential Pest Control
Our residential pest control addresses infestations in homes, targeting mice, cockroaches, termites, and more. Technicians use licensed methods to eliminate pests while prioritizing family safety and privacy. Services include one-time treatments with 90-day guarantees or ongoing prevention programs tailored to household needs.
Commercial Pest Control
Commercial pest control protects businesses across hospitals, restaurants, schools, and offices. We implement preventive measures and targeted treatments to maintain pest-free environments. Services comply with industry regulations and include customizable programs to minimize disruptions to business operations.
Mosquito Treatment
Mosquito treatment targets breeding areas using mist blower applications on vegetation and shaded spaces. Monthly treatments reduce populations during warm seasons, while residual insecticides provide lasting protection. We advise eliminating standing water to enhance treatment effectiveness for long-term mosquito reduction.
Bed Bug Treatment
Bed bug treatment detects and eliminates hidden infestations through specialized inspections and targeted applications. Technicians use proven methods to treat cracks, seams, and furniture where bed bugs hide. Services include follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication and prevent recurrence in residential properties.
Wood-Destroying Insect Treatment
Wood-destroying insect treatment targets termites, carpenter ants, and beetles using bait systems and chemical barriers. Inspections identify damage signs like mud tubes or fecal matter. Treatments protect structural integrity with solutions tailored to infestation severity, including preventive measures for long-term property protection.

Not much to say. They are polite over the phone. The service workers that came out were nice as well. They came out did the job and that was it.

The low price service call included a followup! Honest business with no tricks or surprises that is expert at what they do. They found the mouse entry point so they set pet proof/kid proof traps and I blocked it immediately. The followup appointment showed it was a success. One and done - no more mice. Service: Rodent extermination

I really hate to leave bad reviews because I always like to give the benefit of the doubt. But they came for a follow up, we have a mouse issue. Claimed they didn't need to go up in the attic despite the first visit they did, and I know there are mice in the attic. Then they threw down poison packs on my kitchen floor, out in the open, (the object was under the dishwasher but they did not push them fully under) despite the fact it is evident (and they recorded the first time) that I have a dog and small child. I hope this is not consistent. Now I don't know where there are poison traps accessible to my pet and my child.

Excellent service, great products and super nice employees! Both Dave and Chris have come to my house and were EXTREMELY nice! My neighborhood has bee/wasp and spider problems so most of my neighbors have exterminating companies come to their homes to spray. I have watched the application of these others companies and they are typically finished within 5 mins. Any time Speed has come out, they take their time and ensure every nook and cranny is sprayed! You definitely get what you pay for! They also stand by their services and have a warranty. I will 100% continue to use their services.
