Are your products safe for my family or pets?

Great question! Everything we use is both pet and people-friendly; derived from natural chrysanthemum flowers yet very effective at exterminating the pests that you are seeing. They are less toxic than toothpaste. We do treat many, many homes with both children and pets. As a family-owned pest control company, this is very important to us.

What guarantee do we offer?

All of our treatments do come with a 100% bug free re-treat guarantee. We’ll come back out free of charge between services if needed.

When are we available?

We are typically 24-48 hours out from the time we speak to set up service to having a technician out for your initial treatment. We do offer services Monday-Saturday 8AM – 6PM at your convenience.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

All of our service professionals are highly trained and pest control licensed. It’s more than that. It’s about communication. It’s about really listening to the homeowner, and understanding just how the pests are impacting their way of life. It’s about knowing neighborhood pest trends. It’s about knowing why the pests are there in the first place. It’s knowing the most effective treatment methods to get rid of them, and make sure they never come back.

What’s included in your service?

Each treatment will be tailored to the needs of each home. With our services, we do an intensive full home, inside-out treatment that includes: Interior: – A specialized in-wall outlet treatment in which we remove some of the face-plates off of the electrical outlets and apply products within the exterior facing walls. – Treating common moisture points like under sinks in bathrooms and kitchens. – Treating common entry points like doorways and window seals on the main level. – The garage floor is treated for any crawling bugs. – Attic or crawl space treated for an additional $10 each if requested. Exterior: – Careful inspection for any pest activity – Direct treatment to any and all activity; including ant beds/mounds, webs and wasp nests. – Heavy exterior power spray of 8-10 gallons of product; creating a 3-5 foot protective barrier around the perimeter of the home. – Granulation of all plants hooked up to a drip station within 25 feet of the home. Once we’ve flushed everything out of the home with that initial service, we typically won’t need to treat inside again as long as we keep that barrier strong with those every 60 day treatments. Of course we’d be happy to treat inside whenever requested.

Do I have to sign a contract?

If you do opt for recurring services and corresponding pricing, we do ask that you sign a service agreement that legally allows our technicians to come onto your property to treat. You may cancel this agreement at any time if you are ever dissatisfied. We do, however, stand by our highly specialized treatments, our outstanding service, and always offer free re-treatments between scheduled services if ever needed. Keep the services as long as you’d like to remain pest-free. We use the very best products that begin breaking down at 60 days per EPA requirements. If we can keep that barrier strong, we have a real good chance of the neighborhood pests not coming right back. Ideally, we’d like to treat through all four seasons to get ahead of the breeding cycles to really sanitize the property and solve the pest problem. If canceling after the initial service, without taking an additional service, we do bill the difference to the one-time treatment we also quoted.

Why do I need treatments in the winter?

Every winter as the temperatures drop, the pests in our neighborhood are looking for a warm place to stay so they can survive. Our homes are the warmest places they can find. While we may not see a lot of pest activity during these colder months, they will commonly hide in the walls of a home during the winter, preparing for a spring breeding season. Keeping up your pest barrier in the winter is important to prevent spring infestations!

How did you get started doing this type of work?

Looking to put an emphasis on customer service, 20 years ago three brothers embarked on a journey to help ensure homeowners live pest free and happy! Fast forward to today and Bulwark Exterminating is still family owned and operated, keeping that same pest free promise.

What types of customers have you worked with?

We work with all those who are looking to be pest free. From those dealing with severe infestations, to those who have yet to see a pest and are looking to keep it that way; we service homeowners, renters, property managers, and commercial properties. Our customers love us!

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

So many come to us at their wits end! “We’ve tried everything, and can’t get rid of the bugs!” “Can you help?” Of course we can! Our initial services take about an hour and are quite intensive! Full home, inside-out; we even take some of the faceplates off the outlets inside your home and treat inside the walls. Once we’ve worked to flush everything out of your home and off your property; our recurring treatments establish a strong barrier that keep those same neighborhood pests from coming back!

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

We offer a free over-the-phone consultation so that we can talk about the pests you’re seeing, go over our treatment in greater detail, and schedule a time to have a technician come out. When we come out to your home, an inspection will occur then we will proceed to treat.

Mosquito Control: Tips And Tricks To Keep Them Away

FAQ

How does mosquito treatment work?

On your initial mosquito treatment, we will conduct a thorough inspection around the perimeter of your home. Then we will develop a customized mosquito treatment plan based on our findings, which includes:

A liquid treatment on shrubs and greenery (avoiding pollinating flowers) to help keep mosquitoes away
Treating areas with standing water
A baiting system to attract and eliminate breeding mosquitoes

Our treatment eliminates mosquitoes on contact and creates a zone of protection that lasts for weeks.

We then come back for regular service during mosquito season to inspect and treat your property. In the unlikely event that mosquitoes do come back in between treatments, we will come back to retreat – at no additional cost to you.

How often will I need mosquito control?

One service will knock down all the existing population. Follow up services keep the unhatched eggs and larvae from returning in full force. To keep mosquito activity down all season long, we need to treat your yard regularly during mosquito season. A mosquito professional from your area will know best which months are peak mosquito months and how many services each year will keep you mosquito free.

Can Bulwark help with my mosquito problem?

Yes. We have a mosquito control service that begins working immediately and protects for weeks (not available in all areas).

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

I have been with Bulwark for several years but my latest experience with Andrew Davis warrants this 5 star review. He reached out to me to inform me of my scheduled service and told me that it may not be complete as ants may have gone underground due to the weather. I told him I was concerned because we were going to have an outdoor birthday party for my son. He asked that I reach out to him 1-2 days before the party so he can come and retreat the area. I was busy with the party planning and forgot to call him until the day of the event. It was a Saturday but he came out of his way to treat my yard for ants before all my guests arrived. It was a success and no one got bit even though I had seen some ants that morning. He was very friendly and professional. I recommend him and, by extension, Bulwark highly.

This company is truly the best value in San Antonio and the metro area. I can’t tell you what a relief it is to have them in my toolbelt as a realtor especially specializing in new construction homes that are unfortunately so prone to pest and critter problems. Bulwark has always been the saving grace with incredibly fast response times and very dedicated employees who are all just very kind and friendly. Most notably I want to point out Randy who truly went above and beyond on his visit. From walking the full parameters, to sealing all cracks and crevices, to spending time to give suggestions and add tremendous value, he was truly very stupendous and stood out like a sore thumb as an exceptionally caring person. I also want to mention Rufus (James) as well for responding to several weekend calls and texts as well and for recognizing the human on the other hand. I have seen these guys in action with rodent as well as pest treatments and I can tell you that now, everyone should have their number programmed. Thank you for all you do!
