License: Held by the contractor and issued in Iowa. Ask which name it is held under — a trading name and the licensed entity are often not the same.
Price: What the pest is, what the treatment involves, how many visits it takes and what it costs — explained before any work begins.
The call: Describing what you found commits you to nothing. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Coverage: By town, not by region. Augusta and the towns around it.

Where they get in around Augusta

Augusta is small enough that the census reports it only as part of Des Moines County, so the housing around it looks like the county as a whole.

Des Moines County is mostly housing from the 1950s, and homes of that period have a predictable set of openings: A crawl space vents with torn screen, B the gap where the dryer vent leaves the wall, and C the point where the main water line enters.

A garage below the living space closes the list. A technician works that outside line first, then works inward to where you saw the problem.

What to say when you call

→What it looked like and which room it was in. A trail on a counter and one insect in a bathroom are different problems.
→When it started, and whether it is getting worse.
→What sits against the outside walls — mulch, firewood, an irrigation line that runs wet. That is where the outside inspection starts.
→Your address, so the call goes to a technician covering Des Moines County.

What happens after the call

You say what you have seen and where in the home it turned up. That is usually enough to narrow it down on the phone.

A technician then inspects the property — inside, around the outside, and in the crawl space or attic where the sign usually starts. Identification comes before treatment, and the treatment is quoted before it begins.
