## The eight steps

1. Interview: why did you call, what have you seen, where
2. Tour the house and walk the property
3. Identify the pest and the conditions behind it
4. Targeted interior treatment where activity is, with low-odor products
5. Exterior barrier: foundation, garage, windows and doorways, first floor eaves, fence lines, yard areas
6. Spider web removal
7. Recommendations the homeowner can act on (gaps, litter, branches, lighting, moisture)

Regular visits: Exterior re-treatment to reinforce the barrier and spider web removal; missed areas (locked gate, loose dog) get a note and a reschedule at no extra cost.

Callbacks: Continuing maintenance customers in good standing get return visits at no additional charge for any contracted pest problem between regular service dates, and the technician keeps returning until the problem is solved to complete satisfaction.
