Snellville Pest Control at a glance
Snellville Pest Control takes pest calls for Snellville and the towns around it in Gwinnett County. Phones are answered 24/7. A visit the same day happens only when a technician is free. The service covers termites, roaches, palmetto bugs, mosquitoes, rodents, fire ants and other household pests.
Snellville sits in Gwinnett County, east of Atlanta, and was incorporated in 1923. The 2020 census counted 20,573 residents. Pest activity here runs through the whole year rather than peaking for one season. Termites, roaches, ants, mosquitoes and rodents can all be active in the same month, and the problem depends a great deal on how the house was built.
Most of the housing in the Gwinnett County school-district area was built from 1970 to 1999, roughly 59% by the most recent federal survey data, with about 37% built from 2000 onward. Much of the local stock is a post-1970 subdivision house on a concrete slab, though older crawl-space houses are still common. The climate is humid, with roughly 50 inches of rain a year by third-party weather data, and the last freeze in north Georgia usually falls in early April. The pest calendar shows what tends to be active in each month.

Why homeowners call us
Why Snellville Pest Control
Phones answered 24/7
You can call at any hour and describe what you are seeing. The person who answers will ask about the house, the foundation type and the signs you have noticed. That is usually enough to decide what a technician should check first.
Written for Snellville houses
Slab houses and crawl-space houses have different entry points and different moisture problems. The advice here is built around those two cases, not a generic checklist. Many of the questions a technician asks depend on which kind of foundation the house has.
Termite letters explained plainly
A Georgia termite letter is a formal report that a buyer or lender may rely on, so it is worth knowing what it says. The guides on this site explain the form, the diagram that must match it, and the limits of what an inspector can see.
Price confirmed before work
No price is quoted on this site. The price is confirmed on site, in writing, before any work starts, and it depends on the foundation, the access and the type of visit needed.
How it works
From phone call to fixed, in four steps
Call or describe the problem
Phones are answered 24/7. Tell us what you have seen, where it is, and whether the house has a slab or a crawl space. If you are not sure about the foundation, say so and it can be checked.
Schedule when a technician is free
A visit the same day happens only when a technician is free. Otherwise the next available visit is booked. We do not give an arrival time, and we will say so plainly when we call back.
On-site inspection
The technician looks at the areas where the problem shows up and the conditions that allow it. In a crawl space that means standing water, soil contact, a torn vapor barrier, soft wood and access to the sills, piers and band joists.
Written price before work
Before any treatment starts, the price is confirmed in writing. You can ask questions about the method and the follow-up before you agree to anything. For a fast question, call (855) 974-4733.
Do slab houses and crawl-space houses need different pest work?
Yes. A slab house has entry points at the perimeter, expansion joints and plumbing penetrations, while a crawl-space house brings in sills, piers, dirt floors and moisture. The inspection and the treatment follow from which one you have.
On a post-1970 slab house, a technician looks at the perimeter, where soil meets the foundation, along with expansion joints, pipe and utility penetrations, and weep holes in brick veneer. Open, sunny lawns often sit next to these houses, and those lawns are where fire ant mounds tend to appear. Treatment is planned around those specific gaps.
On an older crawl-space house, the work starts under the floor. A technician checks the sills, band joists and piers, the condition of the dirt floor or vapor barrier, and any standing water. Soft wood and wood-decay fungi are a sign of moisture that has been present for some time, and that is a finding the written report should describe clearly.
What is a termite letter in Georgia, and what should it say?
A Georgia termite letter is the Official Georgia Wood Infestation Inspection Report. Georgia's rules say it can only be issued by a company licensed in the wood-destroying organisms category, and it is the basis for transferring real property.
The report records evidence of wood-destroying organisms and conditions that could allow them, such as active or previous subterranean termite infestation, wood-boring beetles and wood-decay fungi. Where evidence is found, a diagram showing the location must be attached, and the diagram and the report must match. The Georgia Department of Agriculture advises that the report be written in plain language, so that an ordinary reader can find each location. The termite letter guide goes through the form line by line.
A letter describes what the inspector could see on the day of the visit. It does not promise that hidden areas are free of damage. Where a report lists visible evidence of active or previous infestation, some degree of damage should be assumed, and a qualified inspector approved by the buyer and lender evaluates the actual damage.
When do termites swarm around Snellville?
Native subterranean termites usually begin swarming in February or March, during the day, and they are not drawn to lights. Winged swarmers on a sill or near a window are a common reason people call about termites.
Native swarmers are black and about three-eighths of an inch long from head to wingtip. Discarded wings are often the clue that a colony is nearby, and they tend to show up on window sills and door thresholds. A swarm is a signal to have the structure inspected, but it does not by itself say how much damage is present.
Formosan termites are a different case. Their swarms come at night in late May or early June and are drawn to light. UGA says the Formosan termite is rare in Georgia, so most local calls are about native termites. An inspection is the way to find out which termites are involved.
Why are there so many mosquitoes in Snellville yards?
The Asian tiger mosquito is Georgia's most common and widespread mosquito pest, and it breeds in small containers that hold water. Removing standing water is the first step, before any other control.
UGA Extension says this mosquito will use almost anything that holds water, including tires, plant saucers, buckets, pet bowls, birdbaths, rain barrels, clogged gutters, tarps, car covers and children's toys. In summer heat adults can emerge in about three days, so UGA advises walking the yard twice a week rather than checking once. Containers that cannot be emptied can be treated with Bti, a biological product.
West Nile virus has been reported in Gwinnett County. Regional news reports have named the southern house mosquito as Georgia's main West Nile carrier, breeding in storm drains with a peak from August into mid-September. The county's response focused on education, including the Tip 'n Toss advice, DEET repellent, long sleeves, and screens on doors and windows. For ongoing help, see mosquito control.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you quote prices on this site or over the phone?
No price is published on this site, and no figure is given on the phone. The price is confirmed on site, in writing, before any work starts. It depends on the foundation type, how much access the inspector has, and whether the visit is an inspection, a report for a sale, or a treatment plan.
Can a technician come out the same day?
Phones are answered 24/7, and a visit the same day happens only when a technician is free. We cannot promise a same-day visit, and we do not give an arrival time. For water damage, do not expect same-day scheduling.
What rodents are found in Georgia homes?
UGA Extension reports that the house mouse, Norway rat and roof rat all live in Georgia. Rats and mice usually hide during the day and come out at night. A small hole with chewed edges is a sure sign that an animal is using it.
Can fire ants be eliminated from a yard?
No. UGA notes that eradication attempts in the late 1960s and early 1970s failed, and the goal is to manage fire ant numbers rather than remove the species. Their stings can cause serious medical problems, according to UGA. A technician can discuss management options for a specific yard.
How can I check that a pest control worker is licensed?
The Georgia Department of Agriculture runs a public license search that covers structural pest companies, employees and operators. Georgia rules also require structural pest control workers to carry an employee identification card issued by the department while performing services. If a worker cannot show one, ask for it before any work begins.
Does homeowners insurance cover termite damage?
Termite and vermin damage is usually excluded from a homeowner's policy, although the policy and the insurer decide what is covered. If you have a dispute with an insurer, the Georgia Office of Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire is the complaint route. Read your own policy before assuming anything is covered.
