What you need to know
About general pest control in Bixby
General pest control is the regular service most Oklahoma homes need. It covers the everyday pests that walk in from the yard: ants, cockroaches, spiders, crickets, silverfish, earwigs, pill bugs, and stink bugs.
Because the Tulsa area stays warm for most of the year, these pests are active from March into November. A treatment every 3 months keeps a protective band around your home so pests die before they get inside.

Our process
How we handle general pest control
Inspect
We walk the outside and inside of the home and look for entry points, moisture, and pest activity.
Exterior barrier
We treat the foundation, doors, windows, and eaves with an EPA registered product and knock down webs and wasp nests.
Interior treatment
We treat cracks, baseboards, and problem rooms. Baits are used in kitchens instead of open spraying.
Follow up
We come back every 3 months. If pests show up between visits, we return for free.
