A wasp nest under the eave gets handled in an afternoon. A property that stays clear of ants, roaches, and rodents all year takes a different kind of plan. We handle both, and everything in between. Whether you need a single targeted visit or a prevention schedule that runs with the seasons, the call starts the same way: you describe what you are seeing, and we scope the job and confirm the price before anything is scheduled.
Dunwoody is a city with a real mix of property types, from single-family homes on wooded lots to condominiums, commercial spaces, and multi-unit rentals. The pest pressure that comes with that mix is consistent and familiar. We know the pests that show up in this part of Georgia and what it takes to bring them under control.
Call (470) 649-3959 and we will put you on the schedule.
Landlords and property managers call us regularly, and the setup for a rental is different from a standard homeowner visit in a few practical ways.
The person managing the property handles the booking. That is usually the landlord or a property manager, not the tenant. We confirm what the tenant needs to know before the visit, including any preparation required and how long to stay out of treated areas afterward. That information goes to whoever is coordinating the visit, and they pass it along.
Access to the unit is arranged before the visit, not on the day of it. We confirm the entry situation when the job is booked so there is nothing to figure out when the technician arrives. The invoice goes to whoever placed the call. For managed properties with multiple units, we can work through a schedule that treats units in sequence without disrupting tenants any more than the job requires.
Move-in and move-out treatments are one of the more common calls we get from landlords in Dunwoody. A treatment before a new tenant arrives is straightforward: the unit is empty, access is simple, and there is no occupied schedule to work around. Move-out treatments address any activity that built up during the tenancy and reset the property before it goes back on the market.
The quote happens on the phone, before anything is scheduled. When you call, have a sense of what you are seeing: which pest, where the activity is concentrated, and how long it has been going on. That is enough to get started.
We will ask about the property type, the size of the affected area, and whether this is a first-time problem or something that has come back before. From there we can tell you what the visit involves, what it costs, and what follow-up looks like if the job needs more than one visit. Nothing is confirmed until you are comfortable with the scope and the price.
Call (470) 649-3959 any day between 5:00 AM and 10:30 PM. Straight answers on the phone. Real pest work. Quick to respond.
The price depends on the pest, the size of the property, and how far the problem has gone. A contained ant problem in a kitchen is a different job from a fire ant infestation spread across a yard. A single cockroach sighting near a drain is a different scope from roaches established in a wall void. The extent of the activity and the number of visits needed to bring it under control are the two things that move a quote the most.
You get the rate on the phone, before anything is scheduled. The scope is confirmed during that call so you know what the visit covers. Treatment plans are matched to the pest and the property, not to a package that works for someone else's situation. If a follow-up visit is part of the plan, that is explained upfront, not discovered after the first visit is done.
We do not offer a free estimate or a free inspection. The price is given when you call, and it reflects what the job actually involves. Ask what it covers and you get a straight answer. Anyone sizing up a job in Dunwoody may want to read our extermination services page first.
We know schedules shift, so booking stays flexible. For a household with kids and pets, we confirm what preparation is needed before the visit and provide clear guidance on re-entry times after a treatment. For a business that cannot close, we work out the timing on the call so the visit fits around operating hours.
When a problem will not keep, short-notice calls are welcome. We confirm what the schedule allows when you call. There is no automated menu to navigate and no waiting for a callback that may not come until the next day. A call placed any day between 5:00 AM and 10:30 PM reaches someone who can scope the job and get you on the calendar.
For recurring prevention plans, visits are scheduled in advance so you are not thinking about it between appointments. If something comes up between visits and activity picks back up, call and we will address it.
The pests around here behave in predictable ways. The jobs we take in Dunwoody cover a consistent range, and each one has its own situation that leads to it. Here is what to know about the most common ones.
Clothes moths do not come in from outside the way most insects do. They arrive in secondhand clothing, rugs, or upholstered furniture and establish quietly in closets, storage areas, and anywhere natural fibers sit undisturbed. By the time the damage is visible, the infestation is usually further along than it looks. Treatment targets the larvae and the harborage areas where adults are laying eggs. A follow-up confirms the cycle has been broken.
Sowbugs and pillbugs are moisture pests. They congregate under mulch, leaf litter, and debris along the foundation perimeter, and they move inside through gaps at the base of doors and around utility penetrations when conditions outside become too dry or too wet. Treatment addresses the exterior harborage areas and the entry points they are using. Reducing moisture and debris along the foundation is part of what makes the treatment hold.
Pantry beetles, grain moths, and weevils come in through packaged food, not through the walls. A bag of flour, a box of cereal, or a container of pet food is all it takes. Once they are in, they spread to other stored products quickly. Treatment involves identifying the source, removing infested material, and applying product to the pantry and cabinet areas where activity is concentrated. We also cover what to look for when restocking so the problem does not come back through the same door.
Ticks are most active along the edges where a maintained yard meets taller grass, ground cover, or wooded areas. In Dunwoody, properties that back onto natural areas or have dense landscaping close to the structure see more tick pressure. Yard treatment targets the perimeter and the transition zones where ticks wait for a host. For properties with recurring pressure, a prevention plan timed to tick activity keeps the yard manageable through the seasons when exposure is highest.
When an animal has gotten into an attic, a crawl space, or a wall void, the pest control question is what it left behind and how it got in. We assess the entry points and the conditions that attracted the animal to the structure in the first place. Wildlife removal itself falls outside what we handle directly, but we can identify what is needed and point you toward the right resource. Entry-point sealing and exclusion work to close the gaps is part of what we address after the animal is gone.
A property that has been vacant picks up pest activity quickly, particularly in crawl spaces, attics, and around the perimeter. A move-in treatment gives the incoming occupant a clean start and identifies any existing issues before they settle in. Move-out treatments address activity that accumulated during occupancy. Both are straightforward to schedule and are among the most common calls we receive from Dunwoody landlords and property managers.
We serve Dunwoody and the surrounding communities throughout DeKalb County and the adjacent areas. That includes Sandy Springs, Brookhaven, Chamblee, Doraville, and Peachtree Corners, along with the neighborhoods and properties between them.
Coverage is not limited to the city limits. If you are in the surrounding area and need a pest control visit, call and we will confirm that your address is on our schedule. We are available every day from 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM.
Cleaning the treated surfaces, particularly along baseboards and around entry points, can remove the product before it has had time to work. We explain which areas to avoid cleaning and for how long when the visit ends, so the treatment has the best chance of holding.
Call us at (470) 649-3959 and describe what you are seeing.
We will confirm whether what you are observing is normal post-treatment activity, which can persist briefly as the product works through the population, or whether a follow-up visit is needed.
Droppings are one of the more reliable indicators. Rodent droppings differ in size and shape between mice and rats, and cockroach droppings look different from rodent droppings. Describing what you have found on the call helps us narrow down what we are dealing with before the visit.
Call (470) 649-3959 and describe what you are seeing.
We will confirm what the schedule allows and address the activity. A prevention plan is not a one-and-done arrangement. If pressure builds between visits, that is what the follow-up call is for.
You reach someone who knows the trade and can scope the job on the phone. They will ask about what you are seeing, where the activity is, and what the property looks like, and from there they confirm the price and what the visit covers. Nothing is scheduled until that conversation is done.
We are available every day from 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM, which includes weekends.
Call (470) 649-3959 and we will confirm what the schedule allows for the day and time you need.
The pest pressure in this part of Georgia follows patterns that are specific to the region's climate and housing stock. Knowing which pests are active in a given season, where they tend to enter structures in this area, and what conditions attract them to a property makes the inspection more focused and the treatment more targeted. That context shapes the plan before the technician arrives.
The call itself functions as the initial assessment. We ask about what you are seeing, where the activity is concentrated, and what the property looks like, and from that we scope the job and confirm a price before anything is scheduled.
Yes. Let us know on the call what was done previously and when, including what products were used if you know them. That history helps us understand what the infestation has already been exposed to and what approach makes sense going forward.

Choosing the right pest control plan depends on the pest, the property, and how much pressure you are dealing with. Some situations call for a single targeted visit. Others need consistent coverage across the seasons to keep DeKalb County pests from re-establishing. The table below breaks down each plan so you can match what you are seeing to the service that fits.
| Service Plan | Recommended For | Treatment Frequency | Common Pests Covered | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quarterly | Most residential homes in Dunwoody and DeKalb County | Four times per year | Ants, Cockroaches, Wasps, Hornets, and Yellowjackets, Spiders, Silverfish | Visits are timed to align with seasonal pest cycles in Georgia, hitting the perimeter and interior at the points in the year when pressure typically peaks. |
| Rodent Control | Active mouse, rat, or roof rat activity | Initial visit plus follow-up confirmation | Mice and Rats, Roof Rats | Bait stations and traps are placed based on where activity is found. Entry points along the foundation, utility lines, and roofline are assessed. Follow-up confirms the activity has been addressed. |
| Commercial / High-Traffic | Restaurants, warehouses, apartment complexes, and offices | Scheduled per property type and pest history | Cockroaches, Flies, Mice and Rats, Ants, Smokybrown Cockroaches | Service agreements are structured around the property and its schedule. Each visit includes documentation of what was found and what was applied. Food-service operations get focused attention on stored-product pests and harborage zones. |
