If you’re dealing with unwanted pests in your home, calling a pest control company can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time. At Southern Pest Control, we understand that you want fast answers, trustworthy service, and clear communication in your pest control home inspection.

That’s why we make the home inspection process simple, thorough, and stress-free. To help you prepare, here’s what you can expect during your first visit with us.

Step 1: A Friendly Introduction from Your Assigned Technician

From the very beginning, we want you to feel comfortable. Southern Pest Control proudly offers a “Same Technician Guarantee,” which means the same professional will work with you every time.

During your first appointment, your technician will introduce themselves, explain the inspection process, and listen to any concerns you may have—whether you’ve seen bugs in the kitchen, heard scratching in the attic, or just want peace of mind.

Step 2: A Thorough Interior & Exterior Inspection

Next, your technician will conduct a full inspection of your property, both inside and out. Throughout this process, we look for the following:

  • Entry points: Cracks, crevices, and gaps where pests can sneak in

  • Signs of infestation: Droppings, nests, webbing, or chewed materials

  • Moisture or standing water: Especially in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements

  • Yard conditions: Mulch beds, woodpiles, or overgrown vegetation that attract pests

  • Attic and crawl space conditions: Ideal hiding spots for rodents and insects

In addition, we use industry-tested tools and expert eyes to detect even early signs of infestation.

Step 3: Identification and Explanation

Once the inspection is complete, your technician will explain what they found and how it may impact your home.

You’ll get a clear diagnosis of:

  • What type of pest you’re dealing with

  • Where they’re entering or hiding

  • Why they’re attracted to your home

Rather than just treating the problem, we take the time to educate you. No jargon, no scare tactics—just clear, honest answers.

Step 4: Customized Treatment Plan

Based on the inspection results, your technician will recommend a personalized treatment plan. This may include:

  • Interior and exterior treatments

  • Sealing entry points

  • Preventive barrier sprays

  • Follow-up services (if needed)

  • Eco-friendly or pet-safe solutions (when requested)

Importantly, we never push unnecessary services—only what’s needed to protect your home.

Step 5: Transparent Pricing and Scheduling

After the treatment plan is explained, you’ll receive a detailed quote with no hidden fees. We’ll go over the cost, what it covers, and how future visits work if you choose a protection plan.

If you need time to decide, that’s perfectly fine. We’re here when you’re ready.
