Will termite treatments kill ants too?

Each year ants and termites plague homeowners in much the same way. Both carpenter ants and termites can cause wide-scale destruction to the wood supporting your home.

How long does the average mosquito live?

Since females are infinitely more useful than males, at least as far as mosquitoes go, a female mosquito lives considerably longer than the male does.

How many pest control sessions are needed to clear an infestation?

While certain infestations may require a couple of treatments, other infestations may require a service plan that reduces the pest population on an ongoing basis. This depends on the type of infestation.

How much do pest control services cost?

Amco Ranger offers guaranteed pest control programs as low as $55 per month for most homes. We have several options and can also create custom services to suit your needs.

Are your services safe for kids and pets?

Yes. Amco Ranger uses only EPA-approved products and strictly follows all application guidelines. Before any product can be used, the EPA must ensure that pesticides are safe for human health and the environment.

What types of pests do your services control?

Our services control all common household and commercial pests – from ants, mosquitoes, and termites, to mice, squirrels, and everything in between. We also specialize in challenging pest problems including brown recluse spiders and bed bugs.

How often should I have pest control services done?

Bugs are a big part of life in Missouri. Since pests never stop looking for food and shelter, services work best when performed on a regular schedule. Six times per year (every other month) about eight to ten weeks apart is ideal for most customers.

Do I have to be home when services are done?

No. Most of our pest and termite control programs are designed to control pests from the outside before they get in. This means fewer pesticides used inside and less scheduling hassle for you.

How do I get started solving or preventing pest problems?

We always recommend starting with our free, no-obligation pest inspection. We can identify your specific pest issues and find the best solutions for you. Your pest-free home or business starts with a call to 636-441-BUGS (2847).

What diseases do mosquitoes carry?

Mosquitoes carry a number of diseases and in many instances, a person may contract one or more of those illnesses with just one bite.

What is attracting mosquitoes to your home?

Mosquitoes are attracted by standing water and outdoor conditions around your property. If mosquitoes are entering your home, the source is usually from outside areas where they breed and gather.

Are there dangerous mosquitoes in Missouri?

When the weather turns warm in Missouri, mosquitoes can invade and make outdoor activities unpleasant. Some species in Missouri are capable of transmitting diseases such as West Nile virus.
