What to Expect From a Professional Pest Control Visit

If you’ve never scheduled a pest control service before, you might not know what to expect. Will they spray chemicals everywhere? Will you need to leave your home? How long will it take?

At Be There Pest Control, we believe great service starts with clear communication. Whether you're dealing with ants, mice, wasps, or something you can't identify, here's exactly what happens during a professional pest control visit in the Twin Cities.

Step 1: Friendly Arrival & Introduction

Our licensed technician arrives on time and introduces themselves. We’ll ask about your concerns, when the issue started, and where you’ve seen activity.

Step 2: Thorough Inspection

We inspect the interior and exterior of your home, including:

  • Baseboards, corners, and closets

  • Attic or basement (if accessible)

  • Kitchen, bathroom, and utility areas

  • Exterior walls, windows, doors, and foundation

If we're there for a rodent issue, we’ll also look for entry points and signs like droppings or gnaw marks.

Step 3: Customized Treatment Plan

We explain what we found and recommend a treatment plan. This could include:

  • Targeted sprays or baits

  • Traps or exclusion materials

  • Environmental adjustments (like sealing cracks or reducing moisture)

You’ll know what we’re doing and why—before any products are applied.

Step 4: Safe, Targeted Application

We apply treatments only where needed, using EPA-registered products that are safe for kids, pets, and the environment. Depending on your pest, this might include:

  • Baseboard treatments

  • Outdoor perimeter sprays

  • Rodent bait stations or snap traps

  • Nest or harborage site removal

Step 5: Summary & Prevention Tips

Before we leave, we’ll give you a written summary of what was done and offer tips to help prevent the issue from returning. We’ll also let you know if a follow-up is recommended.

Peace of Mind Starts With a Call

Whether it’s your first visit or a quarterly service, we treat your home like it’s our own. No surprises. No pressure. Just effective, professional pest control.
