❓ Common Questions — Concord Pest Control

How do I know if I have termites?
Mud tubes along your foundation, discarded wings near windowsills after a swarm, hollow-sounding wood, or small pellet-like droppings (drywood termites) are the main signs. Annual professional inspections are the most reliable detection method.
How do I find a reputable pest control company in Concord?
Check for a current North Carolina Department of Agriculture license, read Google and Yelp reviews from the last 12 months, and look for NPMA membership. Get at least two in-person quotes — phone estimates are rarely accurate for serious infestations.
Is pest control safe for my kids and pets?
Most professional treatments are safe once dry (typically 1–4 hours). Ask your technician for the specific products and their re-entry intervals. For sensitive households, ask about low-toxicity options like baits, dusts, and IGRs which minimize broadcast spray exposure.
What's the difference between one-time and ongoing pest control?
One-time treatments address an active infestation but provide no ongoing barrier. Quarterly service contracts maintain a perimeter treatment that prevents re-infestation — typically more cost-effective than repeated one-time calls once you've solved the initial problem.
