Doraville pest control FAQ
What are pantry pests?
Small beetles and moths that infest stored dry goods such as flour, rice and spices. Sealed containers and using older stock first keep them out.
How do I keep pantry pests out?
Store flour, rice, grains and spices in sealed containers, use older packages first, and check bulk purchases for small beetles or webbing before storing them.
Why do roaches spread between apartments?
German cockroaches travel through shared walls and plumbing, so treating only one unit often doesn’t solve it. Report problems so neighboring units can be checked.
