Termite control
Termites work from the soil up
Soil contact is how they reach the structure. The inspection starts at the foundation line.
Delaware pest control — termites, ants, rodents and wildlife across New Castle, Kent and Sussex counties
What we handle
Services
General Pest Control
Scheduled interior and exterior service for ants, spiders, roaches and the seasonal pests common in Delaware homes.
Mosquito Control
Seasonal yard treatment that targets resting sites and standing water, not just the mosquitoes in flight.
Termite Control
Inspection, liquid soil treatment and monitoring for the subterranean termites that dominate Delaware structures.
Rodent Control
Exclusion-first work on mice and rats: find the entry points, close them, then remove the population.
Bed Bug Treatment
Inspection-led bed bug work with preparation guidance, targeted treatment and mandatory follow-up visits.
Tick Control
Perimeter and edge-habitat treatment aimed at blacklegged ticks, the Lyme vector active across Delaware.
Wildlife Removal
Humane removal and exclusion for squirrels, raccoons, groundhogs and other nuisance wildlife in and around structures.

Documented, scheduled programs for restaurants, retail, offices, warehouses and multi-unit properties.
The Bug Guy's most wanted
Know what you're dealing with
Identification comes first. Every pest below has a full field guide — what it looks like, how it got in, what it does, and what actually removes it.
Ants
Trailing ants in Delaware kitchens are usually odorous house ants or pavement ants, not carpenter ants.
Carpenter Ants
Large black ants that excavate damp wood rather than eat it, and often signal a leak somewhere.
Cockroaches
German cockroaches breed indoors; American and Oriental roaches wander in from sewers, drains and basements.
Termites
Eastern subterranean termites work out of the soil and hollow Delaware framing from the inside.
Mosquitoes
Three mosquito species matter in Delaware, and each one breeds in a different kind of water.
Ticks
Blacklegged, lone star and American dog ticks all occur in Delaware, and they are not equal risks.
Mice
House mice nest in wall voids and cabinets, breed through the winter, and pass through a quarter-inch gap.
Rats
The Norway rat is the rat found in Delaware - a burrowing rodent tied to sewers, alleys and farm outbuildings.
How it works
Four steps, no mystery
1 · Inspect
We walk the property and find the entry points, harborage and moisture that are actually driving the problem.
2 · Identify
Correct species identification. The treatment for carpenter ants is not the treatment for odorous house ants.
3 · Treat
Targeted application using the least-impact product that will do the job. Botanical options on request.
4 · Monitor
We come back, check the stations and traps, and adjust. Pest pressure changes with the season.
