Licensed Pest Control and Exterminator Service in Youngstown, Ohio

Pest Control Youngstown OH is a licensed, owner operated pest control company serving Youngstown, Ohio and the surrounding Mahoning Valley. Alexander, Owner and Licensed Applicator, works this market because it is different from the suburbs most pest control companies are built for. Most homes inside the city limits were built between 1900 and 1940, on stone or block foundations with full basements, old sewer laterals and detached garages. Many of them sit next to a vacant house or a demolished lot. That combination means mice, Norway rats, sewer roaches, subterranean termites and carpenter ants are everyday calls here, and every October the first cold nights push mice indoors across the whole city at once. Alexander built the business around those conditions instead of a generic spray and go route.

Every job starts with an inspection, not a spray. On a first visit Alexander walks the exterior at foundation level looking for gaps at the sill plate, garage door corners, utility penetrations and porch framing, then works the basement with a flashlight checking floor drains, sump pits, window wells and joist bays. You get a written explanation of what was found, what the treatment will be, which products will be used and why, and what it costs before anything is applied. After treatment you are told the dry time and re entry guidance for that product, usually a few hours for people and pets to stay off treated surfaces. Recurring homes are placed on a quarterly, bi monthly or monthly service depending on the pest pressure, and if a covered pest comes back between visits, the re service is free.
