 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend Family First Pest Control!

We had a huge number of wasps getting underneath the stone siding on the front of our house. We tried spraying multiple times ourselves with little impact, and I was worried we might have to remove the siding to get rid of them.

Then, the night before the first day of school, the wasps somehow made their way from under the siding, through tiny openings around a window, and INTO our house!

I called Family First the next day, and they were out within a day to assess and treat the problem. They were incredibly easy to communicate with, followed up consistently, and made sure the problem was completely resolved. After a few treatments, the wasps were gone, with no need to remove our stone siding. Great service and follow-through!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 Stars!!! nothing but good things to say. I started my journey with Bees in sons room possibly coming in through his window/A,C unit. I called a different place for a quote to start ( First Choice Pest Control). Upon asking a couple questions trying to understand what I'm looking at and why I should spend money to do this versus my own remedy of store bought bee and wasp killer. I was given an ok quote however I was firmly talked down to, to the point where it felt like Bringing a bomb to diffuse a small question. It took me a day to get over it and rather than just give in and accept their service I decided to get a second opinion.

I called Family First and I'm glad I did. He took time to take my call and expressed pricing I received already was competitive to what he charged. As we talked more it wasnt even about pricing anymore he was actually concerned for my family and making sure that if he had time that he could get over there and help us. He called me back and was able to move things around and meet me at my house. He was understanding and talked with me as we walked around my house discussing the right plan and option so my son could get back enjoying his bedroom ( as much as a 7 year old that doesn't like bedtime can like his room) lol. Happy for the service and treating me with respect.

Thank you,

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very friendly, thorough, punctual and affordable. We were having a party and discovered the wasp nest. None of our usual stuff worked on it so we called the pros. They were able to get us in very quickly and the wasps were gone long before party started.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After finding a large hornet nest in our basement, we began searching for someone to remove it. Being a Saturday evening, the only one to respond to our call was Bill! He was prompt, great with communication, and got the job done! They definitely put your family first to keep everyone safe. We will be utilizing Family First Pest Management for all our future needs.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wasp nest in our soffit. Family first quoted a competitive price and took care of the issue within 24 hours. They then came back for a second application and again the next morning just to assure that they were gone. They accepted payment by credit card, check, and Venmo. I really appreciate the way they took care of us.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed a pest inspection for a rental property before the next tenants moved in. Scheduling was easy and the technician was able to work around our timeline. He checked the rooms, basement, garage, and exterior of the property. He explained what he found and treated the areas where there was actual activity. The property was left clean and ready for the tenants. We appreciated how simple the whole process was.

Pest management services FAQ

What’s included in your pest management services?

An inspection to identify the pest and where it’s getting in, a treatment plan explained in plain language, the treatment itself, and follow-up. Year-round plans add scheduled seasonal visits so spiders, ants, wasps, fall invaders, and mice are handled before they become a problem.

Is pest management the same as pest control or an exterminator?

In practice, yes. Family First is a licensed pest exterminator and pest management company. Whether you searched for pest control near me, bug service, insect control, or an exterminator close to you, you’ll get the same thing from us: the problem solved and kept from coming back.

How much do pest management services cost in the Fox Cities?

It depends on the pest, the size of the property, and whether you want a one-time treatment or a seasonal plan. Quotes are free and straightforward, and we keep your home or business finances in check. Call (920) 570-2902 and Bill or Tara will give you a price, usually the same business day.

Are your pesticides and insect control treatments safe for kids and pets?

Your family’s safety is our number one priority. We choose targeted, low-impact applications, tell you exactly what we’re using and where, and give you simple prep and re-entry instructions so kids and pets stay protected.

Do you handle rodent and vermin control too?

Yes. Pest and rodent control is a core part of our pest management services: mice, voles, and moles, plus sealing the entry points that let them in. We remove the current problem and keep it solved.

Will I need pest fumigation?

Almost never for a home. Most problems are solved with targeted insect removal, exterior barrier treatments, and a seasonal plan. If fumigation were ever the right call, we would tell you honestly and walk you through it.
