Why ask for an extended guarantee

Bed bugs have made an obvious comeback here in the United States. Bedbug infestations in New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, North Carolina, West Virginia, and Florida are on an all time high. With more cases of bed bugs springing up nation wide, more companies are hitting the market in hopes to capitalize on the demand. Pest Control / Extermination companies are scattering frantically trying to service as many consumers as possible. But at what costs to the consumer? More and more consumers are pay for bed bug eradication services but are only receiving a 30 day guarantee from the Pest Control companies. 30 Days??? Really???

Thats not even enough time to get a company like K9 P.I. “Bed Bug Scent Detection” in to actually validate the service performed by the pest control operator (PCO).

Having K9 P.I. come in and validate should be a top priority of anyone dealing with an infestation. You the consumer needs to know that this issue of bed bugs is finally behind you and the best way to have this done is by hiring a  Nationally known company with the NESDCA (National Entomology Scent Detection Canine Association) Certification as we do here at K9 P.I.

Asking your PCO for an extended guarantee of 45-60 days will allow enough time to have your unit inspected. Then, if the odor of live bed bugs or viable eggs is still present, you will then be able to call back your PCO for another treatment without fear of having to pay hundreds, if not thousands all over again.

If a company simply agree to the extended warranty then they are probably not the company you want working for you anyway.

    OMG!!! That exact thing happened to my husband and I earlier this year. About a month after our guarantee was up we would start seeing bed bugs again. It ended up costing us nearly $8000 overall. Finally we brought in one of your dogs and were able to pin point the problem area. I don’t know if you remember us or not but your dogs inspected both our New York home and our Florida Home.
    I totally agree with getting a longer guarantee from pest control and definitely have the place inspected by these dogs.

    Thank you so much,
