Are fleas a year-round problem in Connecticut?2025-09-24T14:28:01+00:00

Fleas peak in warm, humid months (spring to fall) but can persist indoors year-round, especially in homes with pets. Our treatments target all life stages—eggs, larvae, and adults—while we coordinate with veterinarians for pet-specific solutions to prevent reinfestation.

How can I prevent rodents from returning to my home?2025-09-24T14:27:42+00:00

Seal gaps as small as ¼ inch with caulk or steel wool, store food in metal containers, keep trash secured, and maintain a clutter-free yard. Scheduling annual inspections with Frattasios catches vulnerabilities early, especially before Connecticut’s winter drives rodents indoors.

What makes flying and stinging insect removal so dangerous?2025-09-24T14:27:18+00:00

Wasps, hornets, and yellowjackets can swarm when disturbed, delivering multiple painful stings that may cause allergic reactions or toxic effects. DIY attempts without proper equipment increase risks. Our technicians use protective suits, endoscopes to locate nests, and targeted treatments to safely remove colonies.

How quickly can you eliminate a cockroach infestation?2025-09-24T14:26:54+00:00

The timeline depends on the infestation’s severity, but our multi-faceted approach—using baits, insect growth regulators, and exclusion—typically shows significant results within 1-2 weeks. We follow up weekly for the first month to ensure complete eradication.

Why shouldn’t I try to remove pests like bed bugs or wasps myself?2025-09-24T14:26:23+00:00

DIY pest control often fails due to the complexity of infestations. Bed bugs hide in tiny crevices and resist store-bought sprays, while disturbing wasp nests can trigger aggressive attacks, risking stings or anaphylaxis. Our professionals use specialized tools, like heat treatments for bed bugs or protective gear for stinging insects, to safely and effectively eliminate pests, saving you time and health risks.

Can you handle pest issues in large commercial spaces like warehouses?2025-09-24T14:25:52+00:00

Yes, we have extensive experience managing pests in large facilities. We use advanced techniques like perimeter treatments, multi-catch traps for rodents, and fogging for severe infestations, ensuring thorough control even in expansive spaces.

Our commercial services are designed to meet Connecticut’s strict health and safety standards, particularly for restaurants, hotels, and warehouses. We provide detailed reports, use compliant products, and offer 24/7 emergency services to keep your business pest-free and operational.

Can you treat my home if I have young children or pets?2025-09-24T14:24:46+00:00

Absolutely. We use pet- and child-safe treatments, such as non-toxic baits, insect growth regulators, and heat-based methods for bed bugs. We also provide guidance on preparing your home to ensure maximum safety during treatments.

How often should I schedule pest control for my home?2025-09-24T14:24:15+00:00

We recommend annual inspections to catch issues early, especially in spring for insects or fall for rodents. For active infestations, we provide initial weekly follow-ups and monthly monitoring to ensure long-term protection. Customized plans are available based on your specific needs.

How do you ensure discreet pest control for homes?2025-09-24T14:23:42+00:00

We understand privacy concerns. Our technicians arrive in unmarked vehicles (upon request) and use low-visibility methods, such as targeted baits and interior treatments, to handle infestations discreetly while keeping your home safe and comfortable.

Are your pest control methods safe for my family and pets?2025-09-24T14:20:42+00:00

Yes, safety is our priority. We use EPA-approved, low-toxicity products and eco-friendly methods, such as heat treatments and humane trapping, to minimize risks. Our technicians tailor treatments to ensure they are pet- and family-safe while effectively eliminating pests.
