Help! There’s a Rat in My Kitchen

Our virtual receptionists can be on standby for you, day and night, waiting for that after normal business hours pest control call.

My Child Angered a Beehive. What Do I Do?

Bees are known for building their hives in the overhangs and nooks and crannies of a home’s exterior. If a child goes near their hive, a serious life and death emergency can develop very quickly.

According to the Backyard Beekeepers Association:

“Worker bees live for 4-9 months during the winter season, but only 6 weeks during the busy summer months (they literally work themselves to death). Nearly all of the bees in a hive are worker bees. A hive consists of 20,000 – 30,000 bees in the winter, and over 60,000 – 80,000 bees in the summer.”

In order to make sure your customers or potential customers are getting the most immediate attention to their incoming beehive emergency, our answering service will be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to answer their calls.  We can instruct your callers to stay clear of the beehive until we are able to dispatch a technician immediately after receiving their initial call.

Having our corporate office located in Central Florida, we know about the late night critter sounds that come from beneath the floorboards of a home. Our team of virtual receptionists are highly trained in caller control and can help a calling customer calm down enough to get the facts of the situation.

When you first hire our pest control virtual receptionists, you will train an account expert on your advice for after hour emergencies such as the animal trapped under the house. We will walk your callers through your policies and procedures and make certain they are safe while we dispatch the service call right to your mobile phone.  

My Bed Itches! Bed Bugs in the Middle of the Night

Nothing can ruin a good night’s sleep like an itchy mattress.
