What pest control actually costs, on both sides of the invoice. Benchmark ranges for property owners and route pricing for operators.
Carpet beetle treatment costs $300 to $600 for most homes. The larvae do the damage, and shed skins are the sign that distinguishes them from moths.
Material runs $49.99 to $64.99 a bag, about $5,398 for a 1,500 sq ft attic, plus $1.50 to $2.50 per sq ft installed. How to evaluate the quote.
One-time visits cost $100 to $300 against $400 to $950 for an annual plan. The per-visit gap is route economics, not a loyalty discount.
A lean start is $6,500 to $11,000. Termite tools take it to $25,000, a fitted rig to $65,000. Which tier you need, and what to buy last.
Pretreatment costs $0.30 to $0.75 per square foot, about $600 to $1,500 on a typical home. Two thirds of states require it, and it is not permanent.
Scorpion treatment costs $125 to $500, monthly service $40 to $75. Sealing at $300 to $2,500 is usually ahead within two to four years.
The bond is the product, not the chemical. Renewal runs $200 to $400. Retreatment-only against damage repair is the distinction that decides its value.
Moth treatment averages $150, pantry moths $250 and clothes moths $275. They are different problems in different rooms and are not treated the same way.
Gnat treatment averages $200, drain flies up to $375. All three are source problems, and identifying which you have decides whether this costs nothing or $375.
DIY costs $50 to $150 against $200 to $700 professionally. It works well on source-driven pests and fails predictably on termites, bed bugs and rodents.
