Tucker pest control FAQ

Is Tucker within your service area?

Yes. Tucker is part of our service area. Call and give us your street or ZIP code to confirm.

Do decks attract termites?

Wood decks with posts in or near the soil can give termites a path toward the house. Check posts and the ledger board where the deck attaches to the house.

How do I keep spiders out of the basement?

Seal gaps around windows and doors, reduce clutter and boxes on the floor, and use a dehumidifier. Fewer insects means fewer spiders.
