Central Ohio is really a few different pest markets. Older doubles and brick bungalows near downtown see mice, roaches and bed bugs. Newer subdivisions around the outer belt see ants, wasps and yellow jackets at fresh decks and landscaping. Reservoir and creek towns get more mosquitoes and spiders, and farm-edge villages get mice when the fields come down in fall.

Each page below covers what we run into in that place. Drive times are approximate and measured from our shop at 1967 Dunning Rd.

Service area questions

How far from Columbus do you travel?

We work out of Dunning Rd on the east side of Columbus and cover the central Ohio counties listed on this page. If your town is not here, call (209) 563-1650 and ask. We would rather give you a straight answer than guess.

Do drive times change the price?

We price by the pest and the size of the job. Distance can matter on a far-out call, and if it does, we will say so on the phone before anyone gets in the truck.

Can I get same-day service outside Columbus?

Sometimes. Same-day visits depend on where we are that day, so the closer you are to the east side, the better the odds. Call early and tell us where you are.

Not sure if you are in our area?

Call and ask. If we cannot get to you, we will tell you so.
