A PROVEN PROCESS FOR PEST CONTROL
When you hire a Jacksonville pest control company, you want to know they are offering the most effective treatment for your location and pest. JK Pest Control uses a three-step process to make sure we provide you with pest control services that meet or exceed your expectations.
STEP 1 - INSPECTION
The first, and possibly most important step in the JK Pest Control process is a thorough inspection of your home or business. During the inspection, our experienced technician looks for possible entry points into your structure as well as any evidence of infestation. This allows us to accurately identify the type of pest in your home.
STEP 2 - CONSULTATION
After the inspection is complete, we work with you to create a customized home protection plan to address current infestations and protect your property from pests in the future. This plan includes seasonal visits with inspections and treatments to provide you with the protection your structure needs to prevent pests from entering no matter what time of year.
STEP 3 - ELIMINATION
Once we have a solid plan to protect your home, we can then begin your custom treatment plan. Our technician treats any inside areas of your structure where pests might hide, including unfinished basements, garages, crawl spaces, attics, and wall voids. Outside, we use a granular base to create a protective barrier around your foundation. Additionally, baits are used in your flower or mulch beds, so pests can take them back to any nests.

At JK Pest Control, we have been providing residential and commercial properties with superior pest control services for more than 25 years. When you call our pest control experts, we’ll schedule a detailed inspection of your property, to gain an understanding of the unique environment surrounding your home or business.

In Florida, the unique climate of year-round warmth and humidity provides the perfect conditions for the proliferation of pests. Some are merely a nuisance, while others can be destructive or dangerous. Even if the household pests you are dealing with aren’t destructive or damaging, though, they can still be a huge hassle, not to mention uninviting for you, your family, and any guests.
Moisture in the air and warm temperatures create an environment that, unfortunately for people, supports the breeding and livelihood of household pests, and without the proper care, these infestations can become long-term problems.
In Florida, there are a number of common pests to be on the lookout for. Should you spot them in your home, give JK Pest Control a call to take care of the problem.
In Florida, you can expect to see common household pests including ants, roaches, ticks, rats, spiders, and Florida scorpions.
Ants are perhaps the most commonly encountered pest in Florida homes and businesses, but are fairly simple to get rid of.
Roaches are, unfortunately, extremely resilient and can be very difficult to get rid of. They nest in complex living quarters and their earliest ancestors date back 300 million years. They carry up to 40 different pathogens and can eat anything—with the smallest crumb being enough to sustain them for longer than you’d think—which makes them difficult to eliminate. In addition to pest control services, homeowners need to be committed to getting rid of these bugs and doing everything they can to prevent re-infestation.
Ticks can hide in baseboards, furniture upholsters, in and under rugs, and in window casings. They carry diseases, feed off of warm-blooded hosts such as humans and pets, and lay eggs at an alarmingly fast rate, making it very important to take care of them as soon as you notice them.
Rats can cause structural fires, and are in fact the cause of over 40 percent of them in Florida. They are disease carriers, and must be gotten rid of if they are in your home.
Spiders can range from merely annoying to downright dangerous, particularly if your home is hosting poisonous arachnids.
Finally, Florida scorpions—these pests typically hide in between bed sheets and underneath clothes, in cabinets and under the sink. They give off a painful sting that can be especially dangerous to young children and pets.
ELIMINATION OF OTHER PESTS AND LAWN CARE SERVICES
Along with common pests, JK Pest Control can provide rodent control and lawn care services that remove nearly any kind of infestation imaginable.

JK Pest Control provides industry-leading pest control services across Florida, including bed bug treatments, and we would love to help you rid your home of these pesky bugs. Contact our team today to get started!
What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?
The trouble with these pesky bugs is that they are most active at night, making them challenging for homeowners to identify in the absence of expert assistance. They can also be easily confused with other insects, adding to the challenge of proper identification. Adult bed bugs are reddish-brown in color and have small, flat, oval-shaped bodies. Although there is a common misconception that these bugs cannot be seen with the naked eye, they are slow crawlers and can grow to be as big as an appleseed, making adults easy to spot. Much like other insects, when you spot one, the likelihood of more of them hiding out in your home is very high.
COCKROACH CONTROL
Because of their unsightly appearance and quick movements, many property owners are terrified of finding cockroaches in their home or office, and for good reason. These pesky insects can contaminate food and food prep areas, and they can cause respiratory problems in those with allergies and asthma. On the rare occasion, they may even bite. Thankfully, JK Pest Control is here to help you protect your family and your home from these troublesome pests. Contact our team today for a Speedy Fast Quote for our cockroach control services!
Signs of Cockroach Infestation
Are you concerned that you have a cockroach infestation in your Florida home? Spotting a cockroach in your home, dead or alive, is cause for concern. Where there is one, there is likely to be many. Aside from seeing these insects in your home, there are a few other indications that you may have an infestation on your hands, such as finding droppings and egg casings. You may also notice a musky, oily smell if your infestation is more advanced.
Droppings may look like ground coffee or pepper, and are often concentrated in the corners of rooms, along baseboards, in food storage areas, and behind and underneath large appliances like refrigerators, ovens, washers, and dryers.
Eggs are usually long, round, and brown in color, and they can typically be found in warm, damp areas of kitchens, bathrooms, and any other locations where you've seen signs of cockroach activity.
FLEA TREATMENT

Signs of a Flea Infestation
Have you seen fleas hopping around on your carpet, curtains, or furniture? If you pull your pet’s fur back, are there any small, dot-like insects? Are your pets scratching or licking themselves more so than usual? These are all indications of a possible flea infestation, and if you notice any of them, you could benefit from a thorough flea inspection of your home.
TERMITE CONTROL
According to the U.S. Department of Forestry, termites do more damage annually than all fires, floods, and tornadoes combined. Termite damage is estimated to cost homeowners billions of dollars on a yearly basis in the US alone, which is preventable with effective termite control services. Florida is home to two common species of termites that can cause severe damage to homes. JK Pest Control offers custom Florida termite control solutions in and around Jupiter, helping home and business owners save money on repairs.
Did you know homeowners' insurance does not cover termite damage? This is because there are only two kinds of homes in south Florida: those that have termites and those that will have termites in the future. Insurance takes risks on what might happen. Florida is one of the most active termite areas in the country. Your home is at risk for a termite infestation even if you have a concrete block, frame, stucco, foam, stilt, manufactured or termite shielded home.
WE TREAT ALL TERMITE SPECIES IN FLORIDA INCLUDING THE NEW ASIAN/FORMOSAN SUPER TERMITE.
JK Pest Control provides termite control for two species found in Florida: subterranean and drywood termites. The main difference between them is the method of colonization. Subterranean termites develop colonies in the soil because they require a moist environment to thrive. However, drywood termites don't require any water source and can burrow in wood above ground level, which can result in heavy damage to a building's infrastructure. Drywood termites are known to colonize in furniture, door and window frames, moldings, fences, utility posts, and other locations.

Carpenter Ants
Carpenter ants leave damage that the untrained eye can easily mistake for termites. To tell the difference, look at the tunnels, or “galleries”. A carpenter ant will leave a smooth, almost sanded appearance, while a termite’s gallery will be packed with mud-like substances and will be rough. Carpenter ants do not necessarily “eat” the wood, but they will carve away at damp wood and will grow and farm molds and other fungus for food. These galleries can significantly weaken the structure they are bored into. Once the structure has been weakened, a heavy snowfall, high winds, or other outside stress can cause the structure to collapse. These small insects can do thousands of dollars of damage, usually in the
Termites
The level of infestation, the size of the space and the type of treatment will affect your price. You could pay as little as $300 for a small problem and as much as $5,000 to clear a large house.
These are some of the most difficult pests to get rid of. They can survive for long periods of time without food which, for them, is blood. They can also hide in small cracks and crevices to dodge chemicals and sprays. To truly get rid of them, the best route is to hire a professional exterminator. When you hire a trained pro, they will handle the service appropriately and effectively. Plus, you wont risk harm to yourself or your property.
Bed Bug
Unlike carpenter ants, these insects actually eat the wood. Like carpenter ants, they can cause catastrophic amounts of damage. Termites cause an estimated $5 billion of damage each year. That’s more than fires, floods, hurricanes, tornados, and earthquakes combined. Keep your eyes open in early Spring for termite swarms. If you see them on your property, call an exterminator quickly. The average termite treatment. Otherwise you could be paying up to tens of thousands of dollars for repairs.
Cockroach
Cockroaches have been around for millions of years, evolving into some of the most adaptable pests on Earth. There are approximately 4,000 living species of cockroaches in the world. About 70 of these species are found in the United States.
Cockroaches are commonly found in buildings and homes because they prefer warm environments close to food and water. Unfortunately, cockroaches can cause allergies and trigger asthma attacks, especially in children. They can also spread nearly 33 different kinds of bacteria.
