## Describe the issue

Note where and when you noticed the issue. A photo taken from a distance can help with identification. Describe affected rooms and any previous treatment.

## Compare providers and written quotes

Confirm service at your address and experience with the pest involved. Ask about relevant qualifications, insurance, visit count, pricing, exclusions and follow-up conditions. A directory listing is not certification.

## Ask for specific preparation instructions

Tell the provider about children, pets and access constraints. Ask for written instructions for the proposed service and conditions for returning to the property. Keep the service report and follow-up recommendations.
