FVEPC is proud to unveil our latest improvement in residential pest control technology:
The prototype mega-zap 1.0!

Made possible by our expanding fleet of all-electric pickup trucks, one pass with this bad boy on your street and you won’t see ticks or mosquitoes for the whole summer!

Disclaimer: It is best to keep children and small dogs inside while this is in use, as the zapper will not differentiate between them and insects.

Our trucks have a maximum range of 3 miles with the system deployed, so slots are limited. Schedule your zapping today!

This is ice inside the insulation in a brand new home.

These photos were taken on a cold, windy winter day inside the basement of a newly built house. The insulation is actually freezing because cold outside air is moving right through gaps in the rim joist, condensing into ice.

Fiberglass insulation slows heat loss, but it does not stop air movement on its own. When cold air leaks in, moisture can condense and freeze right inside the wall assembly, causing cold floors, drafts, and long term moisture issues.

This is why we recommend air sealing, such as with spray foam to provide a good seal from the elements. Contact FVEPC today for a free quote for mice and insulation services.

Winter is here! With the fresh snow on the ground, you might even see the tracks of them in the snow as they try to get into your home. Often they will burrow against the foundation wall to take advantage of any warmth they can, until they find a way in.

For most homes it is not IF but WHEN mice will enter the home, and the damage they cause depends on how effectively you act to counter them. Call FVEPC for mice extermination and exclusion services!

Ants, like most insects, have a hibernation-like state called overwintering.
