Ant Control
Ants are a very common household pest. Ants are parts of a colony and so if you see one ant, more will follow it into your home. Usually ants will enter your home looking for food and water. Most ants will create colonies outside of your home and send workers in to your home. Carpenter ants are different and will build colonies in moist wood. They can invade your home and cause structural damage similar to termites. They may build their nests in your baseboard cracks, door and window frames, near your kitchen or in areas with plumbing leaks. Fire ants are another concern and may prevent you and your family from enjoying time outdoors.
Many people try to treat ants with the baits and traps that you can find at the store. Although these products may temporarily stop the ants, you may find that the ants keep returning. It can be difficult to deal with ants because in order to stop them for good, you must kill the queen. The ant control experts at EcoTek can identify the type of ants in your home and create a treatment plan that will solve your ant problems for good.

Termite Control
Termites can cause serious and expensive damage to your property. It is estimated that they cause billions of dollars in damage in a year. Termites will feed on wood, but they can also damage your insulation, books, paper, and damage your swimming pool liners and filtration systems. They will also attack living shrubs and trees on your property. Termites can be hard to spot, and may be causing all of this damage without you knowing about it. One sure sign of an issue is when the termites will leave their colonies to start new ones. You may see winged termites or swarmers. Other signs are hollow wood, squeaky floorboards. While the first sign of an infestation is the winged termites, you may also spot mud tubes that act as a protection to them on the side of your home. Other pests may also use mud tubes to enter your home, and they can weaken the overall structural integrity of your home.
The best way to tell if you have a termite infestation is consult a professional, who will know exactly where to look and how to spot the signs of an infestation. If you suspect you may have termites, it is important to act immediately so that you can stop further damage that they can create. EcoTek offers a free termite inspection and free estimate.

Fleas and ticks are a nuisance that can leave behind itchy marks and possibly spread disease.

Do I need to worry about my pets?
You will need to remove your pets from the premises when we are completing a treatment. They will need to be gone during the treatment application and for four hours after it is completed.

What steps do I need to take to prepare for an appointment?
The steps you will need to complete are dependent on the type of treatment that you are having. For example, you will need to vacuum thoroughly if you are having a flea treatment and wash your bedding if you are having a bed bug treatment.

What should I expect during a treatment?
During your initial treatment, a technician will complete an inspection and then he will give you a written estimate. If you choose to, you can have the treatment done the same day.

What is involved when you trap rodents?
