Pest Control

Anyone have experience with this in Omaha? I could always call the national guys I have heard of but I assume they are pretty pricey.

I take care of pest control myself, but as far as the national guys... Stay away!

Any national home service company that I have looked in to, terminex, truegreen, scotts, etc are all rip-offs. You can get better service from a local company for less money. They have all the executive pay on the top they have to take care of. The local guy is working with a lot smaller overhead.

I have been doing it myself but coming up a bit short. Plus we are starting to get some things that I dont know what they are or how they got to where we see them. Absent the babies and the cat I might just nuke everything with raid but that's not possible.

Your comment about the big guys is kind of what I thought might be the case, thanks.

Our neighbors had termites, so we had a few local companies come out and look and, sure enough, we had them around the house, but not in it. We had them treat the house and were happy. I will have to see if I can dig up who we used.

Please do. I will certainly give them a shot with any other locals I can find. Its definitely time to check for termites again.

Sorry for the late response. We used Heartland and were very happy.
