Our Pest Control and Extermination Services in Melbourne

Ant control, ant extermination, and carpenter ant removal

Ants are perhaps the most common nuisance for homeowners in Brevard County. Because of our sandy soil and frequent rain, colonies often seek dry ground or food sources inside your kitchen and bathrooms. Ignoring a few scouts can quickly lead to a kitchen full of unwanted visitors. Beyond the annoyance of sugar ants, species like carpenter ants can cause genuine structural concern if they establish nests within your walls.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Trails of small ants moving along baseboards or countertops
• Large black ants seen in bathrooms or near window sills
• Piles of sawdust-like frass near wooden structures
• Ant mounds appearing along the foundation or driveway
• Flying ants swarming near light sources
• Recurring ant activity despite using store-bought baits

How we approach treatment:

We move beyond surface sprays to identify the colony source. Our process involves detailed pest tracking to locate nesting sites, whether they are in the walls or out in the yard. We utilize integrated pest management techniques, applying targeted extermination services where activity is highest. To ensure long-term relief, we also focus on exclusion techniques for pests, sealing entry points and providing sanitation guidance to make your home less attractive to future foraging parties.

Bed bug eradication and treatment planning

Discovering bed bugs is a stressful experience that can happen to anyone, regardless of how clean a home is kept. These hitchhikers hide deep in mattresses, furniture, and baseboards, making them incredibly difficult to remove without professional help. A bed bug issue is not something that resolves on its own; it requires a strategic and aggressive response to ensure every life stage of the insect is addressed.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Waking up with itchy, red bite marks in lines or clusters
• Tiny rust-colored spots on bed sheets or pillowcases
• Dark specks of excrement in mattress seams
• Egg shells or shed skins found in bedding areas
• Musty, sweet odors in the bedroom
• Live bugs visible in crevices or behind headboards

How we approach treatment:

Our bed bug eradication strategy begins with a rigorous inspection of all potential hiding spots. We do not rely on guesswork. Once the extent of the infestation is mapped, we implement a customized treatment plan designed to break the breeding cycle. This often involves a combination of methods to ensure deep penetration into hiding areas. We also provide extensive preparation guidance and follow-up to ensure the problem is fully resolved.

Roach extermination and roach infestation control

In Florida, roaches are a year-round battle. From the small, invasive German cockroaches that take over kitchens to the large American cockroaches—often called Palmetto bugs—that wander in from the humid outdoors, these pests carry bacteria and allergens. They thrive in our warm, damp climate and can multiply rapidly if they find a water source inside your home, such as a leaky pipe or condensation.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Droppings resembling pepper flakes or coffee grounds
• Unpleasant, oily odors in the kitchen or bathroom
• Egg casings (oothecae) found in cabinets or behind appliances
• Live roaches scattering when lights are turned on
• Smears or marks on walls and baseboards
• Chew marks on food packaging or paper products

How we approach treatment:

Effective roach extermination requires disrupting their habitat. We conduct a thorough pest inspection to find harboring areas behind appliances and under sinks. Our team uses baiting systems where appropriate to target the nest, along with insect growth regulators that stop reproduction. We also emphasize pest prevention by identifying moisture issues and gaps around plumbing that allow these pests to enter.

Spider removal and indoor pest control support

While many spiders are harmless and help control other insect populations, finding them in your living space is unsettling. In our area, we occasionally encounter species that require caution, but mostly homeowners deal with common house spiders and cobwebs that make a home look unkempt. Spiders typically enter homes looking for prey, so their presence often indicates other insect activity nearby.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Webs in corners, near ceilings, or around light fixtures
• Spiders hiding in shoes, boxes, or little-used closets
• Egg sacs visible in webs or protected areas
• Increased spider activity in basements or garages
• Sudden appearance of ground-dwelling hunting spiders
• Concern over potentially venomous species

How we approach treatment:

We focus on de-webbing and direct removal to clean up the immediate issue. However, long-term spider removal depends on reducing their food source. By controlling the general insect population in your home, we naturally discourage spiders from staying. We also apply barrier treatments around windows and doors and offer advice on sealing cracks to keep indoor pest control effective.

Flea treatment and tick removal for safer living spaces

Fleas and ticks are a major concern for pet owners in Melbourne, but they can affect homes without pets as well. These pests are often brought into yards by wildlife like raccoons or stray cats. Once established in your carpet or lawn, fleas reproduce at an alarming rate, turning a comfortable home into a source of irritation. Ticks pose a different threat, latching onto people and pets and potentially transmitting diseases.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Pets scratching or biting their fur excessively
• Small black jumping insects on carpets or furniture
• Red, itchy bites on ankles and legs
• “Flea dirt” found in pet bedding
• Ticks found attached to skin after time outdoors
• Larvae found in floor cracks or rug fibers

How we approach treatment:

Flea treatment requires a coordinated effort. We treat the environment to target adult fleas and, crucially, their larvae and eggs. This stops the cycle of re-infestation. For tick removal, we focus on exterior perimeter defense and identifying conducive conditions in the yard, such as tall grass or leaf litter. We work with you to create a plan that keeps your living areas safe and comfortable.

Termite inspection, termite treatment, and long term protection

Termites are a silent threat to property value in Florida. Our humid environment is ideal for subterranean termites and drywood termites. Often, significant damage occurs before a homeowner even realizes they have a problem. Protection against these wood-destroying organisms is not optional in our region; it is a necessary maintenance step for preserving the structural integrity of your house.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Mud tubes climbing up the foundation or exterior walls
• Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
• Discarded wings near windowsills or doors
• Frass (termite droppings) resembling small pellets
• Buckling floors or bubbling paint that looks like water damage
• Swarmers appearing inside the home

How we approach treatment:

We start with a comprehensive termite inspection to identify the species and the extent of activity. Whether dealing with subterranean colonies or drywood invaders, we utilize proven termite treatment methods designed to eliminate the colony. Beyond immediate extermination, we implement long term protection strategies, including soil treatments or monitoring systems, to provide ongoing defense against future attacks.

Rodent removal, mice extermination, and rat control

As the weather cools or heavy rains saturate the ground, rats and mice look for dry, warm shelter. In coastal towns, roof rats are particularly adept at climbing trees and entering attics, while mice may squeeze through tiny gaps in the foundation. Rodents are more than just a nuisance; they chew through wires, damage insulation, and contaminate food storage areas.

Common signs and problems we handle:

• Scratching or scampering noises in walls or attics at night
• Droppings found in pantries, cupboards, or along walls
• Chewed holes in baseboards or food containers
• Nesting materials like shredded paper or insulation
• Grease marks (rub marks) along frequent travel paths
• Ammonia-like odors in enclosed spaces

How we approach treatment:

Effective rodent removal relies on trapping and removal, but that is only half the battle. We focus heavily on rodent barrier installation and exclusion. We inspect the exterior of your home to find entry points and seal them. Our team uses safe baiting systems where appropriate and provides sanitation advice to ensure your home stops attracting these pests. We aim for complete mouse extermination and rat control so you can sleep soundly.
