About

**Local Pest Control You Can Trust** If pests are getting into your home, the goal isn’t just to spray and leave. The goal is to solve the problem and keep it from coming back. Every service starts with a full inspection of the inside and outside of your home. From there, I create a treatment plan based on what your home actually needs. Typical service includes: • Treatment around the entire foundation to create a protective barrier • Treatment of soil, turf, and mulch areas around the structure • Crack and crevice treatments around plumbing and electrical entry points • Targeted treatments in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and utility areas when needed • Bait placement in problem areas when appropriate • Removal of spider webs and accessible wasp nests from soffits, eaves, vents, and downspouts • Annual visual termite inspection Most people can step on a bug. I prefer to solve the problem so you can enjoy your home again. I enjoy getting to know my customers and building long-term relationships. You’ll get honest recommendations, professional service, and someone who stands behind the work 100%. If you’re looking for dependable pest control and clear communication, I’d be glad to help.

David's customer service was on point- He arrived a few minutes prior to our appointment time, performed a thorough assessment before beginning the application, is highly educated in his field (even taught me some things); complete with a great personality. His service was thorough from start to finish and the price was less than expected- Excellent price considering the quality of service I received today. He has definitely earned my business for all my future pest control needs!

Mr. Welch is very professional, I used this site for the first time yesterday and I am very impressed. He was even able to fit me in the same day. When I have future pest management needs, I will be calling him back directly!

David made what is a nuisance chore into a terrific experience. So professional - even removed his shoes in the house - and went above and beyond to explain what he was doing and how it would help with our bug problem. Definitely will continue using his services.

Dave came to the house today and did a thorough treatment. He was a really nice guy and explained everything about his process and what I can expect going forward. It was really nice not to feel judged and to feel like a valued customer, even on the first visit.

Arbor Pest Management was very professional, and knowledgeable about pest control. We had a flea problem, and needed help. David treated the house, and also the garage. I plan to schedule quarterly visits with Arbor Pest to control other pest issues.
