Centipede Exterminators
No matter where they are on the globe, centipedes always gravitate to a moist "micro-habitat" because their thin outer layer causes them to lose water quickly. Cellars, closets, bathrooms, attics (during the warmer months) and unexcavated areas under the house are all potential prime locations for centipedes to make their home. Centipedes can also be found in damp outdoor areas – beneath leaves, stones, boards, tree bark, or in mulch around outdoor plantings. It is important to note that these are also the locations centipedes prefer to lay their eggs.

Do You Need Centipedes Removal Services?
Centipedes are generally harmless to humans with the exception of larger centipedes whose forcipules (the modified pair of front legs found only on centipedes) can pierce the skin and inject a venom. When this occurs, the venom they inject can cause a number of unpleasant reactions including swelling, fever and even anaphylactic shock, though such bites are extremely unlikely to be fatal. Fortunately, most centipedes are small enough that their forcipules are too tiny to puncture human skin. These smaller centipedes do not cause damage to food supplies or household furnishings either, but their intimidating appearance can be viewed as threatening and it is perfectly normal for homeowners to wish to exterminate them.

Eliminate'Em Pest Control Services offers same-day services and free estimates to eliminate centipedes.

From the moment he walked into our home up through today Collin Green left no stone unturned. He did a thorough inspection from the top of our 3-story home to the basement and told us exactly what was found and needed for mice control. THE ONLY reason we are not moving forward is because my husband is focused on exclusion services and while you guys do offer them, another company was a bit stronger and gives us all the other things as well. That was the ONLY reason. THANK YOU Collin for taking all of my calls, answering all of my texts and emails! Again EVERY question was answered. We will be using your sanitizing program for sure. On top of that, the current company states we should not need them in a year or so. You will be back if that is the case for sure.

This was the second exterminator I had to use for a bed bug infestation. Months of my daughters getting bitten. Three treatments from an inferior service. Oh My Gosh! Sean is Amazing! This company cared about my home and my family. They talked me through how to prep the house for a proper treatment. Do not waste your time with other exterminators. Get the job done well with Eliminate 'Em Pest Control Services.

I wish I could give more than 4 stars. Discovered a Yellow Jacket nest under the deck of the pool on July 3 with large family picnic the next day. Other services closed observing the 4th of July. Exterminator was at my home within 2 hours and the nest gone within a half hour! Thank you Ray Rosario! You saved our holiday!
