The Cause of Pest Problems in Our Area
Between the sparkling waters of Lake Hickory and the beautiful, wooded lots lining the Viewmont and Mountain View corridors, our local landscape is truly special—but those same shaded habitats and standing water mean mosquitoes have plenty of places to call home from late spring all the way through September.
Because our mild winters rarely get cold enough to naturally reset pest populations in January and February, little neighbors like ants and cockroaches often stay quite active in cozy basement crawl spaces and older foundations, especially for those of us living close to the water.
In our corner of western North Carolina, the steady foothills humidity and our wonderful mix of historic housing and wooded properties mean that pest pressure stays elevated, making a consistent, year-round perimeter treatment the kindest and most effective way to keep your home feeling just right.

Barrier 360: Revolutionary Pest Control Technology
Our exclusive Barrier 360 treatment creates a powerful, invisible shield around your home or business. By blocking entry points and stopping pests before they invade, Barrier 360 delivers unmatched protection without harsh chemicals.
Barrier 360 is one of the most effective pest treatment services available in the industry, and it's exclusively offered by Pest Authority. By applying a perimeter barrier around your home or business, Barrier 360 prevents pests from getting inside.
Unlike traditional pest control, which targets single issues, Barrier 360 protects you from a wide range of pests in Hickory, including ants, carpet beetles, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, earwigs, millipedes, moths, pill bugs, silverfish, and spiders, all in a single, comprehensive treatment.
With one treatment, Barrier 360 provides ongoing, multi-pest protection, perfect for homes in neighborhoods like Kenworth or commercial properties near Lenoir-Rhyne University.

Fleas: Fleas can present a challenge, and a complete inspection of the interior of your home and adjacent property is required. Call us for more details.
Cockroaches: We can help you take back your property from cockroaches. Our Barrier 360 treatment around the outside of your home can prevent cockroaches from entering in the first place. In certain situations, a complete inspection of the interior of your home may be necessary.
Rodents: Our rodent protocol varies depending on the degree of infestation and type of rodent. An extensive inspection and evaluation must be performed both in the interior and exterior of your home
Bees (carpenter): An exterior inspection and evaluation of the exterior of your home or property is critical to determine the extent of an infestation. We can then provide the appropriate service to eradicate the Carpenter bee infestation.
Wasps and hornets: We can remove wasps and hornets from outside your home. And if they do make it inside, just give us a call and we will perform additional treatments at no extra cost.
Spiders: Our Barrier 360 treatment will protect your home from most types of spiders, but if they do get in, we will perform an interior treatment at no extra cost.

Our exclusive Barrier 360 treatment is applied around the perimeter of your home, to prevent pests from getting in.
