What changes the price
- Size of the home. More square footage and a longer foundation mean more product and time.
- Crawl space or slab. Crawl spaces take longer to inspect and treat, especially for termites.
- How bad the problem is. A few ants is a quick visit. An established German roach or bed bug infestation takes several.
- One-time or ongoing. One-time treatments cost more per visit than a quarterly plan.
- Distance. Rural areas like Stedman or parts of Hoke County may have a small trip charge.
How to get the best price
- Ask for the first-visit price and the follow-up price separately.
- Ask what is included: spiders, fire ants, wasps and free re-treatments are often part of the plan.
- For termites, compare the warranty and the yearly renewal cost, not just the first price.
- Ask about military discounts if you are with Fort Bragg.
Common questions
Is quarterly pest control worth it?
If you see bugs in more than one season, usually yes. A quarterly plan often costs less over a year than several one-time visits, and it keeps a barrier around the house.
Why is the first visit more expensive?
The first visit includes a full inspection and a heavier treatment inside and out. Follow-up visits maintain what was done.
Are termite inspections free?
Many companies inspect homes for free. Reports for a home sale or VA loan usually have a fee, often around $75 to $150.
