Emergency Situations We Handle
What Counts as a Pest Emergency?
These situations warrant a same-day call — don't wait for your next scheduled visit.
Severe Carpenter Ant Infestation
Audible rustling in walls, sawdust-like frass near wood structures, or winged ants emerging indoors indicate an active carpenter ant colony causing structural damage. Immediate inspection prevents escalating wood destruction.
Cockroach Infestation in Kitchen
A significant cockroach presence in food preparation areas is a health code violation and a health risk. Cockroaches spread bacteria rapidly and populations grow quickly — same-day response limits spread and contamination.
Rodent in Kitchen or Nursery
A mouse or rat in food preparation areas or children's rooms is a health risk that should not wait. Rodents contaminate surfaces with urine and droppings and can chew wiring.
Rodent Activity Before Real Estate Closing
Active rodent evidence discovered during a pre-sale inspection can delay or kill a closing. Our real estate inspection team provides fast-turnaround WDI reports and treatment documentation for closing deadlines.
Termite Swarm Inside the Home
Hundreds of winged termites emerging inside your home during swarm season (April–May) indicates an established colony in the structure. While the swarm itself is not immediately destructive, it demands an inspection within 24–48 hours.
Home Sale or Closing Deadline
Pest discoveries during a pre-closing inspection require fast-turnaround WDI reports and treatment confirmation. Our real estate inspection team understands closing deadlines.
