At Preventive, we prioritize what matters most: your family’s safety and peace of mind. Our expert team uses proven, child- and pet-safe treatments that protect your home from pests year-round, ensuring a happy, healthy environment for those you love.
We're committed to your safety right from the start. Unlike many pest control companies that prepare treatments on-site, we do our prep work off-site. This minimizes the risk, ensuring that there's no exposure to potent chemicals before they’re safely diluted.
2Comprehensive Examination & UnderstandingRead More
Not only do our experts conduct a thorough assessment, tracing ant trails and pinpointing nests, but we also seek to understand why they chose you. Ants are typically lured by food. So, our mission isn't just to treat the immediate problem but it is also to empower you with the knowledge to prevent future invasions.
Armed with insights from the examination, we craft a bespoke plan tailored to combat your ant issue. We'll walk you through this strategy, which typically involves leveraging the right bait or non-repellant contact products known for their effectiveness. Yet, our primary focus? Direct treatment to those crucial source points.
Patience is a virtue, especially in ant control. Our chosen products act slowly, deliberately allowing ants to carry them back to all nesting sites. Consequently, don't be alarmed if you spot ants around for up to two weeks post-treatment.
Ants are persistent, and so are we. Your dedicated technician will schedule follow-up services, ensuring that our actions mirror the ants' tenacity. We're in this together, right until the last ant is dealt with.
Rest easy, knowing that every member of our team is fully licensed and brimming with knowledge. By adhering strictly to industry best practices, we sidestep the pitfalls of misinformation and ensure that every action we take prioritizes your safety and well-being.
Hear from our customers
“I've been a happy customer of Preventive Pest Control for over a year now. They are always timely with scheduling my quarterly treatment, and I love that they spray both the outside perimeter and the inside perimeter of my house, as well as coming back if I start seeing pests and need an additional spray before my next quarterly treatment.”
Aubrey
“PPC came out to our house to treat for spiders and wasps. They were extremely professional and efficient! My wife hates to see spiders and asks that our inside window sills get sprayed. They politely did just that and we have seen no pests since. We have used Preventive Pest Control over 6 years now. Amazing service, great quality, and good value. They keep sending sharp technicians! I wouldn't go with any other company.”

“I've been a customer with Preventative Pest Control for 4-5 years now. They are great to work with - always professional and thorough with their treatments, and if you continue having issues following a treatment, they are great to come back out and do a re-treatment and no additional cost. Ky just came to my place today and he spent extra care ensuring he treated all areas and removed any wasps nests.”

Some species, like carpenter ants, can damage wood structures in your home. While they don't eat wood (like termites), they carve it out to build their nests.
I’ve spotted winged ants in my home. What does this mean?
Winged ants, or alates, are reproductive ants looking to start new colonies. Their presence might indicate a mature colony nearby. Immediate intervention is recommended.
What can I do to prevent future ant infestations?
Keeping food sealed, cleaning up spills immediately, and ensuring your home is sealed properly (checking for gaps or cracks) can help. After our treatment, we'll provide insights into why ants were drawn to your home, empowering you with preventive knowledge.
Are the treatments safe for my pets and children?
Absolutely! Our primary concern is your safety. By preparing treatments off-site and using carefully selected products, we minimize risks to your loved ones.
How long does it take to get rid of ants completely?
While our treatments are highly effective, ants are tenacious creatures. Due to our slow-acting solutions, you might still see ants for up to two weeks after treatment. Regular follow-ups ensure complete elimination.
Are all ants the same?
No, there are various species of ants, and each has its own behavior, preferences, and habitat needs. Identifying the species can help in determining the best treatment strategy.
Why do I have ants in my home even though it’s clean?
Ants are often drawn to homes in search of food and shelter, not necessarily because of cleanliness. Even tiny crumbs or a spill can attract them. Plus, if your home happens to be providing them a safe haven from outdoor predators or harsh weather, that may be a further reason they decide to stay.
