Home Pest Control FAQs

Here are some of the most common questions we get asked. If you don’t find your answer here, call us during business hours to speak with someone right away, or leave us a message.

How much does home pest control cost?

In general, the cost of your residential pest control service will depend on these factors:

  • Type of pest
  • Size of the home
  • Degree of infestation

We are happy to provide quotes over the phone. We’ll ask a few questions and provide you with a free no-obligation estimate to think over. We also offer numerous specials and discounts for common local seasonal issues throughout the year.

What is the most difficult pest to get rid of?

When it comes to DIY home pest control, bed bugs, cockroaches, rodents, and termites rank among the most challenging issues. All of these pests are tough to get rid of – and they have additional negative effects.

  • Bed bugs can cause sleep and anxiety issues for people.
  • Cockroaches are highly unsanitary and spread dangerous bacteria in homes.
  • Rodents spread dangerous pathogens and cause property damage.
  • Termites cause extensive structural damage to wooden materials in homes.

If you’re dealing with any of these pests, we strongly recommend giving us a call.

What’s the most effective type of residential pest control?

It depends entirely on the exact issue. The most effective pest control isn’t a specific treatment, but a strategic approach.

When you picture residential pest control, chances are you’re picturing something like chemical insecticides. While they are often an important part of modern pest control treatments, the truth is there are many other examples of effective pest control.

At Schendel Pest Services, we practice Integrated Pest Management, which means our technicians apply products where they’ll achieve the maximum effect, combined with other non-chemical methods. Sometimes, the most effective pest control tactic is pest-specific habitat modification or yard maintenance. Pest control also includes exclusion measures like sealing off cracks.

Are pest control and pest exclusion the same thing?

Not exactly, but they are closely related concepts. Pest control is a broad term for everything that goes into managing an active infestation—including chemical treatments, trapping, and removal. Pest exclusion, on the other hand, is a crucial part of long-term prevention.

Essentially, the goal of pest exclusion is to prevent pests from entering your home in the first place. Sealing small cracks and gaps in your home’s exterior is a common exclusion example. For more information, check out our page on exclusion services.

Are your residential pest control services covered by a guarantee?

Yes! At Schendel, your pest control services come with our Re-Treat Guarantee. This means that if pests come back, so do we – to re-treat at no additional cost. We never give you excuses, just a commitment to caring for your home like it’s our own with guaranteed pest protection you can trust.

I just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate the courtesy always displayed when Derrick visits our office and showroom. He is polite and friendly and does his job efficiently. Today he even asked if he might assist us in tuning in our staticy radio we have at our front door. It took him less than a minute to see that we had wires miswired and corrected it. It was a small effort but greatly appreciated. He is a wonderful asset to your staff.
