Frequently Asked Questions

Are the materials safe for kids and pets?

Our inspections are conducted by licensed professionals and include the official NPMA-33 report form, which is typically required for real estate transactions involving these types of loans.

Why do I need a Pest Control Service?

1. Protect Your Health

Pests like rodents, cockroaches, and mosquitoes can carry diseases and allergens that pose serious health risks to you and your family.

2. Prevent Property Damage

Termites, carpenter ants, and rodents can cause significant structural damage to your home if left unchecked. Professional pest control helps catch and eliminate these threats early.

3. Save Time and Money

DIY pest control often provides only temporary relief. Professionals use targeted treatments that are more effective long-term, saving you repeated costs and hassle.

4. Expert Knowledge

Technicians are trained to identify pest species, understand their behavior, and apply the most effective treatment methods safely and efficiently.

5. Peace of Mind

Knowing your home is protected by a professional gives you confidence that any pest issues will be handled quickly and thoroughly.

Yes, Sudden Death Pest Control does offer a service guarantee, which includes free follow-up treatments if the pest problem persists between scheduled visits.

Our goal is to ensure complete customer satisfaction and ensure responsiveness and reliability when issues arise. If you're on a recurring service plan and notice pest activity between visits, you can contact us and we'll return at no extra charge to address the issue.

Why would I need pest control services year-round, specifically in the winter?

Many people assume pest control isn’t necessary in winter, but it’s actually a critical time for prevention and protection. Here’s why:

1. Pests Seek Warmth

As temperatures drop, pests like rodents, spiders, cockroaches, and stink bugs look for warm places to shelter—often inside your home.

2. Winter Is Prime Time for Infestation

Pests may go unnoticed in attics, basements, and wall voids during winter. By the time spring arrives, they could be well-established and harder to eliminate.

3. Early Detection = Easier Control

Winter treatments help detect and prevent infestations before they grow. It’s a proactive way to avoid costly damage and health risks later.

4. Barrier Protection Still Matters

Even in cold months, maintaining a protective barrier around your home keeps overwintering pests from sneaking in during warm spells.

5. Year-Round Plans Offer Consistency

Sudden Death Pest Control offers year-round service plans to ensure your home stays protected in every season.

I am a new customer seeking a one time, seasonal service. Some lower level interior and exterior spraying. Nicole was prompt and professional. She was very educated in pest control and answered many questions. Friendly and easy to talk to. I think they are reasonably priced, after acquiring several estimates. I will definitely use their service again and highly recommend them to family and friends.

Picked Sudden Death based on Google reviews. Discovered a large, active bees nest behind our exterior stone wall and called them. The friendly and professional technicians were at the house 45 minutes later and did the work perfectly in about 15 minutes all at a fair price. Couldn't be happier with the experience. Great company.
