Most people don't realize they have a pest issue until it's a full-blown infestation. Here's what to watch for:

1. Small droppings in corners or under sinks

Rodent and roach droppings are the #1 early warning sign. Check behind appliances and in pantry corners.

2. Tiny holes in food packaging

If cereal boxes or flour bags have small punctures, something's been eating before you do.

3. Musty or unusual smells

Roaches and rodents leave behind distinct odors. If a room smells off and you can't find the source — that's a red flag.

4. Scratching sounds at night

Rodents are nocturnal. If you hear scratching in walls or ceilings after dark, you're not imagining it.

5. Wood shavings or sawdust piles

This could mean carpenter ants or termites. Don't ignore this one — it can lead to serious structural damage.

Catch it early, fix it fast. That's the whole game.

If any of this sounds familiar, we run monthly pest protection for homeowners — inspections, treatments, and emergency coverage. No contracts, cancel anytime.
