Utilities, permits and licensing
Pesticide applicators working for hire in Ohio are licensed by the Ohio Department of Agriculture. A good pest pro will point out entry points and moisture problems, since fixing those helps treatments last longer.
Homes in Columbus: what pros run into
The city treats wastewater at its Jackson Pike and Southerly plants. The Hap Cremean plant treats water from Hoover Reservoir on Big Walnut Creek.
The Dublin Road plant treats water from the Scioto River and the Griggs and O'Shaughnessy reservoirs. Additions and remodels can leave hidden voids where pests nest, especially where old and new framing meet.
Ants and stinging insects are summer issues, but rodents are the big cold-weather problem. Brick homes from the 1800s line the streets of German Village.
A little prep helps
Store food in sealed containers and clear clutter from the areas being treated.

What people ask us
What is integrated pest management?
It combines prevention, monitoring and targeted treatment to reduce pesticide use. It focuses on fixing the conditions that let pests in, such as moisture, food sources and gaps in the building.
Why do I see more bugs after a treatment?
Some treatments drive pests out of hiding for a few days. If activity keeps rising after a week or two, call the company back.
What info helps the company?
Describe the pest, where you see it, how long it has been there and any photos. Photos of droppings or the insects themselves help the company identify what they are dealing with before they arrive.
