About this guide and referral service
Independent pest information and questions to ask before hiring. We do not perform inspections, treatments or repairs.
What this site does
This is a pest information and referral site, not a pest control company. We do not perform inspections, treatments or repairs. Requests are reviewed for possible referral to independent providers; availability is not guaranteed. Check a provider’s licensing, insurance and written terms before hiring.
We may receive compensation from a provider for a referral. Sharing your request is part of this commercial referral service. You do not pay us to submit a request, and you are not obliged to hire a provider.
What to check before hiring
Ask the provider for these details in writing. The service agreement is between you and that provider, not this site.
-
An inspection before a price
Ask what areas the provider will inspect, what access is needed and whether the inspection has a separate charge. A written proposal should describe the findings.
-
A written scope
Ask the provider to state the proposed work, total price, follow-up visits and what is included.
-
A warranty you can read
Ask whether a termite warranty covers retreatment, repairs or both, how long it runs and whether it transfers if you sell.
-
Licensing on the paperwork
Ask for the provider’s license number and confirm it with the state before work starts. A referral from this site does not certify credentials.
-
The follow-up that makes treatment work
Ask what follow-up is proposed, when visits will take place and whether they are included in the price.
-
An honest limit
Ask the provider what result is realistic for your property, what prevention you need to do and what happens if activity continues.
Prices, and how to get a real number
Price ranges are estimates, not quotes, and every table says so. To get a real number, get matched quotes from three local providers on the same job spec: same property, same scope, same warranty term.
Corrections are welcome and get made. Use the contact page.
Licensing Commercial applicators in Oklahoma work under the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry. Ask any company for the license number, confirm it is current, and get the warranty in writing before work starts.
