Services
Ant Control
Our ant control service targets common species through exterior treatments and minimal interior baiting. We use kid- and pet-friendly baits inside homes while applying odorless materials around perimeters. Our technicians identify entry points and implement long-term solutions to prevent reinfestation, ensuring homes remain ant-free for up to 90 days.
Bed Bug Control
Specialized bed bug treatments combine heat therapy and chemical applications to eliminate all life stages. Our process includes thorough inspections, detailed preparation guidance, and follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication. We prioritize non-invasive methods that protect furniture while guaranteeing 30-day post-treatment protection without damaging household items.
Mosquito Control
Our mosquito control program uses barrier sprays that kill on contact and provide residual protection. Technicians target breeding grounds during inspections and apply treatments that last 3-4 weeks. The service includes eco-friendly options safe for gardens and pets, with flexible scheduling for special events or ongoing seasonal protection.
Rodent Control
Comprehensive rodent control includes species identification, exclusion work, and monitoring systems. Our technicians seal entry points, implement baiting/trapping programs, and provide sanitation recommendations. The service features ongoing maintenance plans to prevent future infestations while ensuring safe handling of hazardous materials during cleanup processes.
Termite Control
Professional termite treatments protect homes from wood-destroying insects through inspection-based solutions. We offer customized protection plans that include both chemical barriers and monitoring systems. Our experts identify infestation signs early and implement targeted treatments to prevent extensive structural damage while providing long-term warranties for customer peace of mind.

After noticing some damage to the wooden pillars on my front porch, I called Dayton Pest Control. He came out the same morning and diagnosed carpenter ants. He not only sprayed for ants and spiders but knocked down some cobwebs and even recommended someone to repair the pillars. Personable and professional.

It is too soon to tell if the termites are gone, but this review assumes that the termites will be gone soon. So this review is about our impression of Jarrod at Dayton Pest Control LLC. We are very leery about company trust, since we currently have a major problem with a national manufacture of walk-in tubs. So we try to be careful. Jarrod explained exactly what he was going to do and how it was to be done. Then, he sent us a quote by email.

Quote was fine and then I asked about the $75 discount that was promoted on Dayton Pest Control website. Within a few minutes, I got an updated quote including the discount. I was expecting a "We cannot honor the discount since we already sent a quote." But that was not the case. The quote stated that we had seen and approved the map. What map? So I called Jarrod and asked about the map. Within a few hours I got a map by email.

It is rare today to work with a company that does what they say they are going to do and be problem free. I would highly recommend Dayton Pest Control LLC. Jarrod did exactly what he said he was going to do and explained each step.problem free! Mel

We contacted Dayton Pest Control to evaluate for termites after noticing a hole on our windowsill. They came the next day and confirmed presence of termites and arranged to come treat within a few days. Jarrod was very knowledgeable and thorough. Contract and payment was very clear, concise, and easy to navigate. I would use this company again and would recommend them to anyone needing their services.

New to the Midwest, I was paranoid after learning that a mouse made its home in my stove! Jarrod responded and serviced my home the very next day! Everything was explained in detail and I was given several additional tips for preventing this from happening again. The service provided put me at ease about the entire situation. So grateful!

I'm setup with Dayton Pest Control for quarterly pest maintenance. They're professional and super friendly. Service is quick and affordable, I've not had any issues. When I called about seeing a mouse they came out the next day to setup bait boxes and explain what to look for and things I could do if needed. I highly recommend this company.
