Mosquitoes

Mosquito control lowers biting pressure by treating breeding sites and adult resting areas around your property. Regular service helps disrupt the life cycle and keep populations down through peak season.

Scorpions usually come inside while hunting insects or looking for shelter. Control focuses on exterior protection, crack-and-crevice treatment, reducing the insects that attract them, and sealing entry points.

Termites

Termites can cause hidden damage by feeding on wood and other cellulose materials. Professional control starts with a detailed inspection, then uses targeted treatments and monitoring to stop activity and help prevent a return.

Crickets

Cricket infestations often start outdoors and move inside through cracks, doors, and vents. They don't cause much damage but they are annoying. At Pest Marshal we reduce attractants, seals entry points, and applies perimeter treatments to keep them out.

Bees

Bee problems usually start when a hive forms in a wall void, attic, soffit, or other sheltered spot near your home. Bee control focuses on locating the hive, removing or treating it safely, and sealing entry points to help prevent bees from returning.

Fire Ants

Fire ants create outdoor mounds that spread quickly and deliver painful stings when disturbed. Pest Marshal uses colony-focused treatments that reach deep into the nest, helping eliminate the source rather than just surface activity.

Cockroaches multiply fast and often hide in kitchens, bathrooms, and wall voids. Professional control targets nesting areas, food sources, and entry points, then uses prevention steps to help keep them from returning.
