Common problems

The pests people most often ask us about

Not sure what you have? Describe what you have seen, and a professional can help you narrow it down.

01

Ants

Trails in the kitchen or bathroom, or colonies around the foundation.

02

Cockroaches

Often a sign of food, moisture and hiding places that need dealing with as well as the insects.

03

Mice and rats

Droppings, scratching in the walls or attic, or chewed wiring and packaging.

04

Termites and wood-destroying insects

Damage that is often hidden until it is serious. Inspection matters here.

05

Bed bugs

Bites and small stains on bedding. These usually need a professional and a plan for preparing the home.

06

Wasps and hornets

Nests near the home. Don't try to remove a large nest yourself.

What to ask

Six things to ask any pest control company before you agree

01

Are you licensed and insured?

Ask for the company license and the applicator license where one is required, plus proof of insurance, then check them with your state.

02

What pest is it, and how do you know?

They should explain what they found and why, not just offer a treatment.

03

What products will you use, and are they safe for my family?

Ask for the product information and how long to keep children and pets away.

04

What is included, and what is guaranteed?

Number of visits, areas covered, and what happens if the pests return, in writing.

05

Is this a one-time treatment or a plan?

Ask why, what each visit covers, and how to cancel a recurring plan.

06

How do I prepare, and when will I see results?

Ask what you need to do beforehand and how long it should take to work.

Good to Know

Questions about Namoye

How do I know what pest I have?

A professional can usually tell from the signs, such as droppings, damage, bites or the insects themselves. A photo of what you have found helps. Be wary of anyone who names a treatment without first working out what the problem is.

Are treatments safe for my children and pets?

It depends on the product and how it is used. Ask what will be applied, where, how long to keep children and pets away, and for the product information in writing. Technicians who apply pesticides need to be licensed in most states.

How much does pest control cost?

It varies with the pest, the size of the home and how bad the problem is. Namoye doesn't set prices. Ask for a written estimate that says what is included, and be careful with large upfront payments.

Should I choose a one-time treatment or an ongoing plan?

Some problems need a single treatment and others need follow-up visits. Ask why the plan is needed, what each visit covers, and how to cancel, before you sign up for anything recurring.

Do I need an inspection for termites?

Termites can cause damage you can't easily see. If you suspect them, or are buying or selling a home, an inspection by a licensed professional is worth having. For an expensive treatment, it can be sensible to get a second opinion.

What happens if the pests come back?

Ask what is guaranteed, for how long, and whether repeat visits are free. Get it in writing, including anything you need to do to keep the guarantee valid.

Does the company need to be licensed?

Rules differ by state. Ask for the company's license number and the technician's applicator license where one is required, plus proof of insurance, and check them with your state agency.

What should I have ready?

What you have seen or heard and where, how long it has been going on, any photos, and your ZIP code. If you don't have everything, send the request anyway.

Is Namoye a pest control company?

No. Namoye is a free matching service. It doesn't treat, price or guarantee the work. The company that contacts you is responsible for the treatment and the quote.

Will several companies call me, and does it cost anything?

No to both. A verified professional contacts you, and Namoye is free for you.
