License: Held by the contractor and issued in Illinois. Ask which name it is held under — a trading name and the licensed entity are often not the same.
Price: What the pest is, what the treatment involves, how many visits it takes and what it costs — explained before any work begins.
The call: Describing what you found commits you to nothing. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Coverage: By town, not by region. Calhoun County and the towns around it.

One county, more than one kind of house

Calhoun County is not one kind of housing. Hamburg is mostly homes from the 1930s; Batchtown was built in the 1970s. Between those two towns sits 35 years of changing building practice.

The way into a house changes with it: an old foundation leaks at the water line and the sill plate, a new one at weep holes and an unsealed pipe penetration. Say the town when you call, not just the county — it changes what the technician looks at first.

A technician kneels beside a house foundation and shines a flashlight into a crawl space vent.

What happens after the call

You say what you have seen and where in the home it turned up. That is usually enough to narrow it down on the phone.

A technician then inspects the property — inside, around the outside, and in the crawl space or attic where the sign usually starts. Identification comes before treatment, and the treatment is quoted before it begins.
