How does exterior spraying work?
As part of Pest Control Preparation, we apply a professional treatment around the outside perimeter of your property, including walls, foundations, windows, doors, and common pest entry points. The treatment creates a durable protective barrier that stops pests before they approach your home.
By prioritizing exterior protection, this approach minimizes the chance of pests entering through entry points and reduces the need for interior control. Regular exterior treatments, when paired with proper home maintenance, support long-term prevention and help preserve the comfort and value of your living space.
- Exterior Spraying Creates a Protective Barrier: A professional treatment is applied around the property’s outside perimeter, covering walls, foundations, windows, doors, and common pest entry points to stop pests before they enter.
- Safety for Children and Pets: Products are applied according to strict safety guidelines, with a note that children and pets should stay away from treated areas until the spray has fully dried.
- Inform Us About Pets on the Property: Please advise us of any dogs, cats, birds, fish ponds, or other animals so we can take appropriate precautions during treatment.
- Prepare the Area Before Treatment: Removing dirt, cobwebs, leaves, and debris helps the spray bond properly and improves effectiveness and longevity.
- Weather Impact and Longevity: Light rain after drying is usually fine, but heavy rain soon after application may reduce effectiveness and require a follow-up; our exterior treatments include a 12-month guarantee and are designed for long-lasting protection.
Is the treatment safe for children and pets?
Yes. We use professional products applied according to strict safety guidelines. We ask that pets and children remain away from treated areas until the spray has fully dried.
Should I let you know about pets on the property?
Absolutely. Please advise us of any dogs, cats, birds, fish ponds, or other animals around the property before treatment so we can take the appropriate precautions.
Do I need to clean before treatment?
Yes. Removing dirt, cobwebs, leaves, and debris helps the treatment bond properly. It also improves the overall effectiveness and longevity of the spray.
What happens if it rains?
Light rain after the treatment has dried is generally not an issue. However, heavy rain immediately after application may reduce effectiveness and require a follow-up visit if necessary.
