Frequently Asked Questions
What preparation is required for intensive pest treatments?
For infestations and other intensive services, treatment areas must be prepared before the appointment. Preparation sheets cover bed bug, flea, cockroach and rodent treatments.
How long is the arrival window for residential visits?
Residential visits are scheduled within two-hour arrival windows. The window indicates when the technician is expected to arrive to begin work, not how long the job will take.
How does American Pest handle emergency service requests?
Its scheduling process distinguishes emergency service within 24 hours from pest problems that can be handled during the next scheduled service.
