- License

- The call
- Describing what you found commits you to nothing. Nothing is booked until you say so.
- Coverage
- By town, not by region. Ute and the towns around it.
Where they get in around Ute
A large part of Ute went up before 1950, and houses of that age share the same weak points. A The water line where it comes through the foundation wall. B A porch or a step that has settled away from the house. C The sill plate where old framing meets stone or block.
Those gaps are narrow, which is why they get missed: a mouse needs about a quarter of an inch, and an ant needs far less. A technician starts there rather than at the baseboards, because spraying where you saw it does nothing about the way in.
What to say when you call
- →What it looked like and which room it was in. A trail along a counter and a single insect in a bathroom point at different things.
- →When it started, and whether it is getting worse.
- →What the ground around the house looks like — firewood, mulch beds, a downspout that soaks one corner. That is where the outside inspection starts.
- →The address, so it reaches a technician working Monona County.

What happens after the call
You say what you have seen and where in the home it turned up. That is usually enough to narrow it down on the phone.
A technician then inspects the property — inside, around the outside, and in the crawl space or attic where the sign usually starts. Identification comes before treatment, and the treatment is quoted before it begins.
