Pest Control in Altamonte, FL
The picturesque parks, tree-lined streets and a strong sense of community in Altamonte Springs attract more residents each year. What’s not as great about our area is when unwelcome pests come to visit, especially when those are of the roach, rodent, termite, mosquito, bed bug, ant, flea, tick, bee or wasp variety. These creatures can pose serious health risks to you and your family, contaminate our food and damage our property. When it comes to pests control in Altamonte Springs, homeowners trust the locally-owned business known for getting long-term results: ABC Home & Commercial Services.
Effective Pest Control Solutions
ABC strives to exceed your expectations, every step of the way. That begins with a free inspection and a no-obligation, complimentary estimate.
What can you expect once you contact us to schedule a service? It depends on the severity of your case.
For the more straightforward pest issues, a simple phone call may be all we need to gather enough information to provide you with an estimate.
In many cases, however, we do prefer to set up an in-person meeting at your convenience to allow us to better design a treatment plan customized for your needs. In these cases, a trained inspector will come to your home to:
- Ask questions to learn more about the problem you are having
- Check for points of entry
- Determine what factors unique to your property might be putting you at an added risk for an infestation
- Locate any damage
- Assess the extent and severity of your pest activity
- Offer you a chance to ask any questions you might have about our approach and the course of treatment
Once we have answers to these questions, we’ll create a recommended treatment plan for you to review and approve. Upon your approval, we can make an appointment for your first service call.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule an inspection to get an understanding of the problem. In some cases, we can give you a quote over the phone.
2. Get An Estimate
If you have an inspection, we will send you a custom treatment plan and estimate afterward. Once we get your approval, we will schedule your treatment.
3. Treatment
We will come to your property and treat for pests in common hiding and nesting areas. Over time, you will start seeing less and less pest activity.
4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
Different types of pests in different life stages also require a unique approach to be effective, which is another reason we try to send an inspector to your property to learn more about the extent of your infestation.
In some cases, we can be successful after only a few visits. However, a vast majority of pest behavior is seasonal, meaning that in most cases, we need to make a return monitoring visit or schedule seasonal service calls to make sure our treatments have effectively reduced your pest population and halted the reproductive cycle.
Although this may come as a surprise, it’s completely normal for our customers to see a temporary uptick in pest activity immediately following a service call, as these creatures are evicted from hiding spots around your property. In time, you’ll begin seeing fewer and fewer pests, until your problem is a thing of the past.

Frequently Asked Questions
I’m concerned about the impact of pest products on my kids, pets and the larger environment. What can you tell me about your treatments?
At the foundation of our work are the principles of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Accepted by many institutions, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as an effective approach, IPM places a special emphasis on prevention, in-depth knowledge of pest behavior and a focus on making an environment less favorable for pests to thrive. Through these tactics, chemical interventions are used as a last resort.
This could mean that our inspectors recommend installing protective mesh across any openings found around the exterior of your home to prevent rats from entering to build a nest. In some cases, reducing dense vegetation, keeping grass trimmed and removing firewood or compost bins can provide fewer hiding spots for both insects and larger types of wildlife. We may recommend making changes to your irrigation system to prevent water pooling in your yard, which can also make your grass vulnerable to several types of fungus and other pests.
When needed, we can and do use chemically-based products that have been specially formulated for use in residential environments and minimize the impact on your pets, children and the surrounding ecosystem. Our licensed applicators are specially trained to use these solutions in the lowest concentration possible, in small amounts, to targeted areas.
As a family-owned and run business, the well-being of your family is our top priority, as is protecting our customers from the many risks that pests pose.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Aaron Follmer
“My service technician, Miguel, did a great job. He communicated well and took the time to answer all of my questions. He was respectful of my property. He made sure to do the work inside the house before it rained so he wouldn't get my house wet or dirty.”
Brad Allen
“ABC Pest Control services here in Orlando Florida came to our home today. We’ve been a client of theirs for almost a year. Our technician today, Jose Santiago, arrived early and started doing an exterior service sweep around the house. Needed him to take care of some ants we started to see in the yard and others on the exterior walls. He attended to that. We haven't been seeing many insects inside our home but he wanted to put out baits just to keep it that way. He went ahead and brushed and swept our exterior windows and door areas to add some mitigation for some of the other outdoor insect pests like paper wasps, spiders, roaches, etc. After he finished outside he then came inside and did a fantastic job inside our home doing all the baseboards, window sills. Bathrooms, kitchen, garage area and even underneath the cabinets. He did a very good job on our home pest control service. He provided us with great customer service and provided a high quality experience all around. He represented ABC pest control very well! Highly recommend Jose and the rest of the team from ABC for any pest control services you may be looking for. Five stars!!!”
