Spiders in My Home

“I like spiders and hope they enjoy their stay in my home…” said, nobody…Ever.

But as the weather gets colder, the ugly truth is that spiders will be looking for a warm place to stay and due to their size and maneuverability, access points are easy to find. I found this out the hard way one Sunday night while I sat in my entertainment room downstairs and tuned in to the football game. I was relaxed, with a snack in hand, when all the sudden a big black spider ran down the back of my neck, across my arm, and onto my lap faster than I could react. But when I finally did react, it was with a scream that probably didn’t make me sound very manly. This all happened while my 2 trusty cats watched on with minimal effort. Who knew that cats were ineffective against spiders!?

The next day I texted Chaz (MPM) who was in town and able to stop by. Watching MPM perform pest management in my own home was truly impressive and gave me a great understanding as to why they have so many 5-star reviews. Here is why I will be recommending Madsen Pest Management to my friends and family.

Efficient and Effective Spider Control

MPM took approximately 20 – 30 minutes to inspect inside and outside our home and apply treatment to every conceivable entry point. Chaz mentioned that the spiders could get worse for a day or two before things got better but after 2 weeks, we still have not seen a single spider!

Treating the Problem With Family in Mind

We have two cats, two dogs (one of which a puppy) and a 1 ½ year old toddler. MPM aims to use the safest products possible while applying treatment in hard-to-reach areas for pets and children.

Friendly and Affordable Pest Managment Services

This is a family-owned business, and you can sense the “family vibe” when dealing with MPM. The value of their service far exceeds the cost and as a consumer you cannot ask for anything better.

Alas, my quiet Sunday Night routine has been restored thanks to Madsen Pest Management.

If you are dealing with spiders and turn in to a whimp (like me) when they invade, save some face and call Shawn and Chaz: (715) 791-4777
