License: Held by the contractor and issued in Illinois. Ask which name it is held under — a trading name and the licensed entity are often not the same.
Price: What the pest is, what the treatment involves, how many visits it takes and what it costs — explained before any work begins.
The call: Describing what you found commits you to nothing. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Coverage: By town, not by region. Columbia and the towns around it.

Where they get in around Columbia

A large part of Columbia was built in the 1990s. Houses of that age are tight enough that the obvious gaps were closed at construction, so what is left is smaller and less visible.

The usual list is A utility penetrations under a sink or behind a washer, B the rubber seal at the bottom of the garage door, and C weep holes in brick veneer that were never screened. A technician checks those before anything is sprayed.

What to say when you call

→What you saw and where in the home it turned up. A trail along a counter and a single insect in a bathroom point at different things.
→How long it has been going on, and whether it is spreading.
→What sits against the outside walls — firewood, mulch beds, a downspout that soaks one corner. That is where the outside inspection starts.
→Your address, so the call goes to a technician covering Monroe County.

A technician kneels beside a house foundation and shines a flashlight into a crawl space vent.

What happens after the call

You say what you have seen and where in the home it turned up. That is usually enough to narrow it down on the phone.

A technician then inspects the property — inside, around the outside, and in the crawl space or attic where the sign usually starts. Identification comes before treatment, and the treatment is quoted before it begins.
