Good morning,
I just wanted to post a quick update on pests in your community. Our varied weather allows insects and rodents to move to other areas surrounding your home and neighborhood. Rodents especially are active right now. With the decreased human movement rodents are more likely to disperse and expanding their territories. Insects and other pests(spiders, scorpions and centipedes) are also on the move. Now is not the time to delay in your pest control treatments. We know times may be difficult, so we have a plan that works for you. We take multiple precautions, to keep you safe while we reduce your pest populations in and around your home or work environment.
