Pest Control in Tulsa

There are so many things we love about Tulsa. From Philbrook, Cain’s Ballroom and Guthrie Green to shopping in Utica Square, hiking at Turkey Mountain and eating at all the great restaurants, it really is a great place to live and work. It has all the benefits of a big city but yet has somehow managed to hang on to its small-town charm. On the other hand, Tulsa has some of the craziest weather in the country and we don’t have to tell you that all that wacky weather can lead to some pest control problems for Tulsa home and business owners.

Pest control may seem like something you can accomplish on your own, especially if you like tackling DIY home improvement projects. And while there are a lot of things you can do on your own to prevent pests from coming into your home, once they’ve invaded it’s best to leave it to a professional. Even if you do manage to get rid of some or all of the insects, spiders or rodents bothering you and your family, you have no guarantee the store-bought or homemade products you use will keep them from coming back again.

Not only do we eliminate the pests, but we eliminate the source.

Not only do we eliminate the pests, but we eliminate the source. We’ll figure out how they’re getting into your home, where they’re breeding and what attracted them to your home in the first place. Let’s face it—there are always going to be pests in Tulsa. That’s just a fact of life living here. Do you really want to have to run to the store every time you see an ant? Or do you want to call the professionals at Emtec Pest Control and have them root out the source of the problem for you once and for all.

Common Pests in Tulsa

Rat

Rodents

City or country, apartment or house…no matter where you live, mice and rats are nearby, looking for a warm place to cuddle up with easy access to food and water. Chances are, your home fits that bill. They live in walls, attics, basements and tool sheds, making nests out of wood shavings, cardboard, and other soft materials. While they might seem harmless and even cute, mice and rats carry diseases and bacteria, including trichinosis and rat-bite fever, which they can pass on to you and your family. Mice and rats reproduce quickly, having several litters a year. And if they take up residence in your home for too long, they can attract large predators that like to eat them, like snakes. And the last thing you want is a snake in your home! Emtec Pest Control has decades of experience getting rid of all types of rodents. Give us a call to eliminate any mice or rats that may have taken up residence in your home.

Termite white ant bug

Termites

Oklahoma is prime territory for subterranean termites, and unfortunately your home or business probably looks like a tasty snack to them. Without proper protection, your home or business could experience devastating termite damage, which generally isn’t covered under insurance. When it comes to termite control, there’s no one better equipped or more experienced than the professionals at Emtec Pest Control.

Ant

Ants

In this part of Oklahoma, the weather conditions are perfect for a wide variety of insects to flourish—particularly ants. And while ants may be fun to play with on the sidewalk when you’re a kid, the last thing you want as an adult is a trail of ants winding through your home or business. Whether it’s Carpenter Ants, Formica Ants, Red Pavement Ants or any other type of ant, Emtec Pest Control can get rid of them. Regardless of if it’s one, solitary ant or an entire invasion, an experienced technician can identify the type of ant and the treatment that will work best for you and your home or business. This could be a dust insecticide, liquid insecticide, bait, granules or a combination of tactics. We guarantee our team will take the time to fully evaluate your ant problem, and carefully tailor a solution that will work best for you.

Brown recluse spider

Spiders

Just like ants, the weather conditions in Oklahoma are perfect for a wide variety of spiders to thrive. From harmless household and garden spiders like the Spotted Orb Weaver, the Barn Funnel Weaver and the Southern House Spider to dangerous, venomous spiders like the Brown Recluse, the Carolina Wolf Spider and the Southern Black Widow, Oklahoma is home to them all. The good news is that Emtec Pest Control is also experienced at eliminating them all. Our professional technicians have years of experience in spider control and can create a unique and detailed plan for each home or business. Whether as part of our Preventative Pest Control program or as a uniquely tailored program for your home or business, we will craft a targeted plan for the specific type of spiders invading your property. Never worry about waking up to spiders in your closet or bathroom sink again. Get in touch with us today to get started on your free spider inspection and estimate.

Cockroach

Roaches

Roaches, everyone’s least favorite pest. We know how gross and upsetting it can be to see even one roach in your home. They’re also terrible for business. No matter what kind of business you own, your customers aren’t going to want to see a cockroach scuttle across the floor when they walk in the door! And unfortunately, they rarely come alone. Just one roach could be an indicator of hundreds or thousands more lurking in your walls and under appliances. Creepy and unsanitary, roaches feed on anything from crumbs left on countertops to rotten food in the trash. They also carry viruses and bacteria, including salmonella, and some parasitic worms. The last thing you want is for them to be contaminating your food supply with these diseases. And given how notoriously difficult roaches are to kill, this is a job you want to leave to the professionals. The experts at Emtec Pest Control are trained to use specialized roach-control equipment that applies a dust insecticide to all affected areas, like cabinets, countertops, and drawers in bathrooms and kitchens. We follow this up with a liquid insecticide on a case-to-case basis. This treatment plan sees 70-80 percent of roaches dead within two days and the remaining 20-30 percent dead in two weeks. If you’ve seen even one roach, call us today to talk about setting up a roach treatment plan specifically designed to suit your home or business.

Other Pests

Other Pests

From fleas and ticks to scorpions and everything in between, there’s nothing Emtec Pest Control can’t handle. Fleas and ticks are a huge problem in Oklahoma, especially for hunters, campers, hikers and others who spend a lot of time outdoors. And not only are they annoying and potentially dangerous to humans because of the diseases they carry, they are annoying and dangerous to dogs, cats, horses and other pets as well. We also know what a bother, and even danger, scorpions can be, especially for those with sensitivity to their stings. Our technicians are trained to get rid of scorpions quickly and efficiently. We can also deal with just about any other pest, even if it’s not listed here. No matter what kind of pest is invading your home or business, and how many of them there are, we can identify them, figure out the correct course of treatment and remove it. Give us a call today to start working on your customized pest control plan. We can make all your pest control problems a thing of the past.

Commercial and Residential Pest Control

Whether it’s your home or your business, the last thing you want is a pest infestation of any kind. Nothing else makes you feel as unsafe and unsettled in your own home as seeing a spider in your shoe or a cockroach in your kitchen. And nothing makes a customer turn around and run to a competitor faster than walking into your store or restaurant and seeing a mouse or a trail of ants. Living in Oklahoma, we’ll never be able to avoid seeing these pests altogether. But with the help of Emtec Pest Control, we can ensure you only see them where they belong—outside!

We have experience dealing with all the pests that pester Oklahoma home and business owners, including termites, roaches, ants, spiders, mice and rats, fleas and ticks, scorpions and much more. We know that pest control isn’t just about keeping up appearances, it’s about your family’s safety. Rodents and insects carry all sorts of bacteria and diseases that can be harmful to humans and their furry friends. You work hard to keep your home a safe place for your family; the last thing you want is rats spreading disease or insects contaminating your food supply.

On top of that, pests like scorpions and venomous spiders can be extremely dangerous, especially for small children and the elderly. Leaving a pest infestation unchecked can be dangerous in other ways as well. If uncontained, termites can decimate your home, ruining buildings, furniture and more and racking up a huge repair bill. If not controlled quickly, mice and rats can breed at an alarming rate. They also leave behind a distinct scent that can attract another unwanted houseguest: snakes. That’s right. Snakes often follow the scent of mice and rats up into your attic and feed on them there.

At Emtec Pest Control, we offer a wide variety of pest control treatments for all the pests that are trying to invade your home, as well as a wide variety of preventative pest control treatments. Our most popular and affordable pest control program is geared towards some of the most common and annoying pests—roaches, spiders, ants, and rodents. Our Preventative Pest Control program includes an initial treatment that eliminates any pests currently in your home and is followed by a bi-monthly treatment to keep them away for good.
