Senate Termite & Pest Control offers several pest control maintenance plans for lasting protection. You can choose from a quarterly or monthly pest control plan to ensure the safety of you and your loved ones. As the months progress after your initial pest control treatment, different varieties of pests can enter certain activity cycles. If left unchecked, a family or colony of critters could spread and potentially harm your home or family. We recommend creating a pest control plan which safeguards your home during each season.
