The most important thing about treating for pantry pests
is removing the source of infestation. When we buy food
from the grocery store, often times there is already
larva from some pest in the food we bring home. As the
larva matures, adults will start to emerge from the
food and make themselves known. Before we arrive, go
through your pantry and look through all of your stored
food for the source. Depending on the pest, you may
find them in things like rice, flour, cereal, pasta,
baby food, any kind of grains, peppers, dog and cat
food, etc. Be thorough, because finding the source is
the key to elimination. Once you find the source, put
it aside for our technician to look at. Next, remove
ALL items from the cabinets as we are going to spray
in there to kill any existing adult pests. Depending
on the pest, we may also use traps, the technician will
go over this with you once proper identification of
the pest is made. All people and pets will need to be
out of the structure for two to four hours after treatment.
