Idyllic Brunswick, Georgia is the perfect place to raise a family and grow old with your loved ones. Kids and pets get plenty of healthy playtime year-round outdoors due to the warm weather and flourishing vegetation. Unfortunately, Brunswick is just as much a haven for pests as it is for people, which is why residents have trusted the experts at Jackson Pest Control for over 30 years. We’re a local and family-owned company, and we take pride in keeping Brunswick pest-free.
Pests aren’t just gross – they can be hazardous to your health and mental well-being. Imagine never having to worry about stumbling on a nest in a dark corner, or finding huge portions of your home eaten away by ravenous pests. With help from Jackson Pest Control, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your home is safe from disease, allergens, and destruction. Persistent pests can lead to much more expensive or dangerous home problems, such as:
– Electrical issues and even fires from frayed or chewed wiring
– Compromised plumbing systems from burrowing and nests
– Structural damage to wood and insulation
– Contaminated food stores
These problems aren’t just a headache; they can bring down the value of your home and deter potential buyers if you’re looking to sell. One of the reasons pests tend to be a consistent problem for homeowners is that they are survivors. They reproduce quickly and are good at finding entryways and hideaways in your home.
Regular pest control will catch the early signs of an infestation and stop it before pests get very far. Jackson Pest Control uses advanced, eco-friendly methods that have been proven to work for our satisfied clients over the years.

The Jackson Pest Control difference is round-the-clock, 365-day-a-year protection for your home. We hope to protect all homeowners from the health and safety issues caused by pests, so we deliver solutions at affordable rates with adaptable plans.
We’ve been partnering with homeowners in southern Georgia for decades to make their homes and communities cleaner and safer. Our methods have been tried and tested on pests in this region, and we’re ready to help you create a customized plan for maximum well-being.
How Much Do Pest Control Services Cost?
Services are extremely customizable at Jackson Pest Control. Here is more information on how prices vary:
Monthly Service
- $45.00/Month
- Monthly visits allow pest control experts to consistently search for signs of pests and keep preventative measures in place
Monthly service is best for homes that are prone to pests due to environmental conditions. If you’ve consistently had problems with infestations and want to catch future problems before they get out of hand, monthly service is economical in the long run. Plus, you have unparalleled peace of mind.
Quarterly Service
- $75.00 every three months
- Visiting your home during each seasonal shift ensures experts are able to protect your property from a broad spectrum of critters year-round.
A quarterly visit is a budget-friendly way to strategically protect your home against pests. Updating for seasonal changes is a great way to make sure you’re protecting your home where it counts and makes infestations less likely.
One-Time Treatment
- $150.00 per visit
- A quick-hit, targeted treatment in case of an infestation emergency
A one-time treatment from Jackson Pest Control will clear up a problem fast, but we do recommend follow-up treatments if the problem is persistent. There are usually deeper vulnerabilities that can cause pest issues that can be addressed with regular treatment.
What Attracts Pests to My Home?
Sneaky Access Points
Pests of all kinds can squeeze their way into small cracks in your wall that you might not even notice. Doors, windows, and utility lines that aren’t sealed tightly are weaknesses in your home’s barriers.
Changes in Weather
Extreme storms or seasonal changes drive pests to seek shelter in your home.
Crumbs & Insecure Food Containers
Open food containers, crumbs, and pet food can be like magnets for pests. Even tiny amounts of sugar or grease can keep them running.
Water & Damp Areas
High humidity levels common in Brunswick make the perfect breeding grounds for many insects and bugs. Plumbing issues in your home can cause standing water and damp areas that are breeding havens for pests.
Dark Hiding Spots
Cluttered areas in dark sheds, basements, and attics, are the perfect place for many pests to hide and nest.
The First Signs of a Pest Infestation
Pests can leave their mark on your home in many ways. Here are signs to look out for:
- Foul smells
- Droppings
- Damage to furniture, walls, or wires
- Nests (often made from pieces of insulation or paper)
- Greasy tracks along walls
- Sounds of movement or rustling in the walls and ceilings
- Pellet-like droppings, especially around food or dark, cluttered areas
- Sightings of pests, alive or dead
- Remains of pests, such as exoskeletons or wings
How Can I Stop Pests From Coming Back?
Secure Entryways
Cracks and holes in walls and foundations can be sealed with weather stripping, caulk, or steel wool to provide a stronger barrier.
Clean Up Clutter
Organize your storage neatly and clear out areas where pests can hide in dark attics, garages, and basements.
Keep Food Air-Tight
Clean up crumbs quickly, use secure trash cans, and take the garbage out frequently. Keep your food in air-tight containers so pests can’t smell their way to a food source.
Maintain a Neat Yard
Pest control begins outside. Take pests’ hiding places away by clearing out the gutter, storing firewood far away from the home, and trimming overgrown vegetation.
Reduce Moisture Levels
Have your pipes inspected to stop leaks and make sure your property’s drainage is healthy. If you have a persistently damp area in a basement or garage, mitigate moisture with a humidifier.
Consult Experts
Regular inspections and tailored treatment from a pest control service are the best way to prevent prolonged infestation issues. Catch problems before they become disasters.
How Often Do I Need Pest Control Services?
In the event of an active infestation, you might need treatments multiple times over a period of weeks or months.
For most properties, quarterly treatments usually catch burgeoning pest issues before they spiral. In humid areas like southern Georgia, monthly visits could be necessary, especially if your home is near a water source, or surrounded by plants and nature. If you have experienced particular problems from a seasonal pest, we recommend an extra-targeted treatment before that season.
Is Pest Control Covered by Home Insurance?
Many insurance providers consider pest infestations preventable with proper maintenance, so pest control is often not covered. If pests cause damage to your home that is covered by your policy (for example, a fire), the damage would be covered. However, it’s a narrow exception and you don’t want an infestation to get to that point. Bottom line: preventative pest control is the best ways to avoid expensive repairs home insurance likely isn’t going to cover.
Are Pest Control Treatments Safe for Kids and Pets?
Pest control services wouldn’t be of much use if they were harming you and your family more than the pests are. Fortunately, most professional treatments applied correctly are very safe. Jackson Pest Control ensures safety and comfort by:
- Using only EPA-approved products
- Finding organic and eco-friendly alternatives whenever possible
- Taking safety precautions and pointing out areas to stay away from after treatment
- Listening to our clients about their personal sensitivities
Are Pest Control Treatments Permanent?
No pest control treatment is permanent. Pests can re-enter the home in other ways, and seasonal and environmental changes can bring in new threats. Regular maintenance and service schedules keep treatments up-to-date and effective.
How Long Do Pest Control Treatments Last?
Humidity and rain can make treatments effective for a shorter time, but general insect sprays last between 30-90 days. Long term precautions like termite barriers are usually effective for several years. Bait stations for pest issues don’t last very long, and will require regular monitoring.
How Do I Choose a Pest Control Company?
- Look at their reviews and see what previous customers have to say. See if the company has satisfied returning customers; pest control is a marathon, not a sprint.
- Verify their credentials and insurance. They should be licensed in your state, hire certified technicians, and carry liability insurance.
- Ask about eco-friendly options. Sustainability is more important than ever, and eco-friendly is safer for your loved ones.
- Make sure they are being transparent about methods and prices before you agree to work with them.
What Should I Expect During a Pest Control Visit?
- Inspection: One of our experts will inspect your home and figure out the where, when and how of an infestation.
- Discussion: We’ll make suggestions for treatment based on our assessment and speak with you about what works best for your home.
- Treatment: To treat an infestation, we’ll use targeted methods like sprays, traps, or bait depending on the type of pest.
- Follow-Up: We might schedule an appointment for further monitoring, or reapplication if it seems necessary.
Is Pest Control Service Guaranteed?
Many pest control services offer guarantees when they treat your home. Retreatments are often free if pests return in a specified amount of time after treatment. Warranties might apply to longer term treatments like termite barriers. To still be eligible for guarantees, it’s important to follow the company’s preventative recommendations, which might include things like sealing entry points.
What’s the Difference Between Pest Control and Extermination?
Extermination is like going to a dental surgeon for a root canal. It is used in emergencies. It’s a full-court press against an infestation that’s out of control, and its methods usually include harsher chemicals.
Pest control is more like going to the dentist for regular check-ups. With preventative care, you hopefully shouldn’t ever need the root canal. Integrated pest management looks at your home holistically and pest-proofs it.
Do Pests Cause Health Issues?
Pests can absolutely affect your health and the health of your family. They can:
- Spread Disease: Salmonella and hantavirus are often linked to insects. So is Lyme Disease, which can cause lifelong health problems.
- Aggravate Allergies and Asthma: Breathing in debris, skin, and droppings left by pets is bad for the lungs, especially for those with allergies and asthma.
- Contaminate Your Food: Pests are drawn to food, and can easily get bacteria and germs in your food and water.
