Almost all of it happens outdoors, in the eighteen inches of ground nobody ever looks at.

Every service listed with what it covers, what it does not, and roughly what it costs in Tallahassee, so you can work out what you need before anybody comes out.
Sorting the job before picking a service saves a wasted visit. Structural work protects the building: subterranean termites in the soil, drywood termites in the timber itself, powderpost beetles, and the moisture that invites all three. It is bought as ongoing protection with an annual renewal rather than as a single treatment, and in this state the agreement behind it has to be in writing with the renewal figure stated in it. Ground and perimeter work is a different job: fire ant mounds in sandy yards, mosquitoes breeding in a ditch or a low corner of the lot, and the roaches that walk in from pine straw and pipe collars once sixty inches of annual rain has saturated the ground. Interior work is the smallest slice of the three, and usually a symptom of one of the other two.
The fourth situation is a date rather than a pest. A closing or a refinance needs a WDO report, a builder needs the treatment stages hit in the right order before the slab goes down, and a rental needs a unit cleared and verified before the next tenant moves in, which around here means August and it means everybody at once. All three get scheduled around the deadline rather than the calendar, so call as soon as you know it. Whichever bracket you are in, the inspection comes before the recommendation, and the estimated range goes in writing so you can hold it against somebody else's. The /cost sets out figures service by service if you would rather start from numbers.
Houses account for most of it, under residential pest control. Offices, restaurants and rental stock go through commercial pest control, usually while the doors are shut.
Anything below can be booked for a house, a rental or a business anywhere in Leon County, at the same rates.

Sixty inches of rain a year, a south wall standing in full sun, and a season that never really closes. Three months is the honest interval to work on.

February through October, three species behaving differently, and a contract whose renewal fee matters more than its headline number.

Twenty percent is the figure that lands on the report. Most of what moves it costs less than a single weekend.

They spend the day in shade, not in your lawn. Treatment goes where they rest and where the water sits.

Do not strip the beds. The evidence is the map, and in a shared building one unit is never the job.

Two completely different problems wearing the same name. One arrives from the mulch, the other never left the kitchen.

Under this canopy the traffic runs overhead. Traps clear out what is already there; sealing the roofline decides whether it comes back.
Learn about Rodent Control and ExclusionFind out what the house stands on and get somebody under it or at the bath trap. Everything else on this page is a decision you can take at leisure; whether the structure itself is at risk is not. After that the order is: the ground around the slab line, then the water sitting in the low corner of the lot, then whatever is walking in from the pine straw. If a WDO report came with the sale, dig it out before you book anything, because it tells us where to start and it is the only document in the pile that was written by somebody who went under the house.
Two things, and neither is the headline figure. The first is whether it is re-treatment only or re-treatment plus damage repair up to a stated amount, because the first buys you another treatment and the second buys you a joist. The second is the annual renewal fee, which Florida makes the agreement state in figures: the treatment is the down payment and the renewal is what keeps the re-treatment obligation alive, so a bond that lapses takes the promise with it. Two quotes at the same price can be two completely different documents, and the difference is on page two.
Usually yes, because most of what you are paying for is somebody being there. A treated soil band and a fire ant broadcast are the same walk round the house. If a person is already under the floor, screening the vents and closing the pipe collars costs the time it takes rather than a second visit. Combined work goes on one quote and the trip is charged once, which is worth knowing before you book three companies for three problems.
Both. Alongside owner-occupied homes we cover apartment and rental stock, restaurants and bars, offices, retail, warehousing out along I-10 and multi-unit buildings across Tallahassee and Leon County. Turnover work runs to the changeover date rather than to our route, and a fair share of those dates land in the same August two weeks as everybody else’s. Commercial visits come with the logs an inspector expects.
A day or two is plenty for routine work. Some capacity is deliberately kept clear each day for the genuinely urgent. The one thing to call early about is a sale or a refinance that needs a WDO report, because the state itself advises getting that report done early in the transaction rather than letting it become the thing everyone is waiting on.
Every service on this page has a published band in the Tallahassee pricing guide, along with what pushes a figure up and what comes as standard. The inspection is free either way, and the number you are asked to approve is written down first.
That is precisely what the free inspection settles. Somebody identifies the species, reads the substructure, and tells you which service actually fits, with the band written down and nothing owed either way.
