🦟 BUG SEASON IS HERE! YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED 🐜
We’ve been getting a lot of calls lately at The Local Guys about our bug spraying services, so we wanted to lay out the facts and answer your most frequently asked questions!
We know you want a bug-free yard, but you also want to protect your family, your pets, and our local environment. Here is exactly how we handle it:
👉 IS IT SAFE FOR PETS AND KIDS?
Absolutely, but safety depends on the treatment you choose! We use two different setups depending on your property's needs:
1️⃣ Our Premium Protection: Once this professional-grade barrier dries completely (usually about 1–2 hours), it is entirely safe for pets and kids to run around and enjoy the yard.
2️⃣ Our All-Natural/Eco Option: If you have pets that are constantly outdoors or prefer a zero-wait solution, we have a specialized, plant-based formula that is completely safe for them to be around immediately—even while we are spraying!
👉 WHAT ABOUT BEES AND POLLINATORS?
We love our local pollinators! We are incredibly mindful of where and when we spray. We don't spray flowering plants, weeds in bloom, or areas where bees actively forage. By focusing strictly on the perimeter of your home, structure foundations, and heavy brush/woodlines where ticks and mosquitoes hide, we kill the pests without harming the good guys.
👉 HOW LONG DOES A TREATMENT LAST?
Our standard professional barrier provides robust, heavy-duty protection that keeps the bugs at bay for 4-12 weeks depending on the amount of heavy rain fall. For total peace of mind all summer long, most of our neighbors sign up for our monthly maintenance pool to keep the barrier fresh.
👉 IS IT EXPENSIVE?
Not at all! We pride ourselves on being affordable, working-class guys serving our community. We don't do massive corporate markups. Because every yard is a different size, we give free, fast quotes tailored right to your property. You only pay for what you actually need.
👉 WHAT PESTS DOES IT KNOCK OUT?
Our formulas are built to handle the toughest local pests, including:
Ticks & Mosquitoes
Ants & Spiders
Fleas, Flies, and more!
