Questions people ask about this

What should I ask a pest control company before hiring them?

Ask for their state license number, the exact product names and active ingredients they will apply, the re-entry time for pets and children, whether the plan includes exclusion and monitoring, the retreatment guarantee, and the full contract term with cancellation terms.

Can a technician refuse to tell me what they're spraying?

No. In most jurisdictions you are entitled to know the products applied and to see the label or safety data sheet. A refusal is a serious red flag and reason enough to choose another company.
