Interior and exterior barrier treatment that eliminates 30+ household pests and keeps them from coming back, backed by our free re-service guarantee.
BRD's general pest control creates a protective barrier around your home that stops insects before they get inside. Our technicians treat entry points, harborage areas, and perimeter zones using products that are tough on pests and safe for your family and pets.
Your technician walks the property identifying active pest entry points, harborage areas, and conditions attracting insects.
Interior and exterior barrier application using targeted, EPA-approved products to eliminate current activity and prevent re-entry.
If pests return between scheduled visits, we come back at no charge, until the problem is resolved.
Your first visit starts outside, not inside. Your technician walks the full perimeter of the home looking for the conditions that let pests in: gaps around utility penetrations, cracked weep holes, mulch piled against siding, branches touching the roofline, and standing water near the foundation. That walk determines where the treatment actually goes, which is why two homes on the same street rarely get an identical service.
From there the exterior barrier goes down around the foundation, along door and window frames, and under eaves where spiders and wasps build. Inside, treatment is targeted rather than broadcast, concentrating on the places pests travel and harbor: under sinks, along baseboards in kitchens and bathrooms, around plumbing entries, and in the garage. Most visits take under an hour, and you only need to be home for the first one so the technician can get inside.
A single treatment solves the problem you can see today. It does not solve the fact that the pressure outside your home never stops. Ant colonies keep foraging, spiders keep moving in from the yard, and the barrier you paid for slowly breaks down under sun, rain, and irrigation. Most products hold up for roughly three months in real conditions, which is why quarterly service exists.
Each scheduled visit renews that barrier before it fails, so pests never get the window they need to re-establish indoors. The practical difference is that quarterly customers call about pests far less often than one-time customers, because the service is preventing the problem instead of reacting to it. If your home sits next to a field, a greenbelt, or water, that pressure is higher and the case for staying on a schedule is stronger.
It is worth being direct about the limits. General pest control is built for the 30-plus common household insects that live around and inside the structure: ants, spiders, cockroaches, silverfish, centipedes, earwigs, and stink bugs among them. The products and placements are chosen for those pests specifically.
Termites, bed bugs, and rodents are genuinely different problems and are handled by separate services, because each needs a different approach to work. Termites require soil treatment or bait systems, bed bugs need a room-by-room protocol that reaches eggs, and rodents need bait stations serviced on an ongoing cycle. If your technician finds any of those during a general service visit, they will tell you what they found rather than treat it under the wrong plan.
Our general service targets 30+ common household pests, including ants, spiders, cockroaches, silverfish, centipedes, earwigs, and stink bugs. If you are dealing with termites, bed bugs, or rodents, those are handled by our specialized services.
Most homes do best on a quarterly plan. The barrier treatment is designed to hold up for about three months, and each scheduled visit renews protection before pests can re-establish. We can adjust frequency based on your home and the pressure in your area.
Yes. We use targeted, EPA-approved products and apply them where pests travel, not where your family lives. Once the treatment has dried, your home is safe for children and pets.
They should not, but if they do, we come back at no extra charge. Free re-service between scheduled visits is included with every general pest control plan.
You will usually notice a drop within a few days. It is normal, and actually a good sign, to see more activity for the first day or two as pests are flushed out of harborage areas and move across treated surfaces. Most homes are quiet within a week. If activity is still there after that, call us and we will come back.
Only for the first visit, so your technician can complete the interior portion and walk the property with you. After that, most customers are on exterior-only service for their scheduled visits, and we can treat while you are at work. If you want interior service on a specific visit, just let us know ahead of time.
No. The exterior products bind to the surfaces they are applied to and need a short drying window, not days of dry weather. Once dry, normal rain and irrigation will not wash the barrier off. Heavy, sustained flooding around the foundation is the exception, and if that happens close to your service date we will come re-treat the affected area.
If pests return between scheduled services, so do we, at no additional charge. We don't stop until the job is done.
