Alex City is where the Wedgworth family started in 1958 — founded that year as Wedgworth Pest Control, the business neighbors still know by that name, now EnviroCare. Our local crew lives here, works here, and treats every home like family.
Alexander City is where Phillip M. Wedgworth started the family business in 1958, and the pests have not changed much: the town sits between the lake and the Tallapoosa County pine woods, on red clay that holds moisture. Older homes downtown and in the mill neighborhoods have crawlspaces and pier foundations that subterranean termites have had generations to find. The lake side of town — Willow Point, the Highway 63 corridor, the coves — carries the heaviest mosquito pressure in the county from March through October. Wooded lots toward Jacksons Gap and Dadeville are tick country, and the woods send spiders, crickets, and mice toward every garage in the fall. Our program treats the exterior on a schedule so the pressure stays outside, and the same technician tends to stay on your route.
Every Alexander City home gets the same four-pillar program — pest, termite, mosquito, and tick protection from the same family-owned team.
Your technician is a neighbor — we know every street.
What we treat most often around Alexander City — and how each program handles it.
Old crawlspaces downtown and lake-side outbuildings are both regular termite finds. Sentricon® Always Active™ protects the structure with no drilling; every termite quote follows a free WDO inspection.
Lake Martin and the creek bottoms keep mosquitoes going March–October. Eight seasonal treatments reduce the yard population; tick coverage is added for wooded lots. We do not promise to remove every mosquito.
Fire ants in the open lawns, odorous house ants in the kitchen, carpenter ants in damp deck wood. Nuisance ants are on the pest plan; fire ants are a separate whole-yard treatment, $150 for most yards.
Mice and rats come out of the pine woods toward houses in October. Exclusion at entry points — garage seals, vents, utility lines — is part of every exterior visit.
American and smokybrown roaches come up from crawlspaces and drains in the heat. German cockroaches breed indoors and are handled with bait and a follow-up.
Wolf spiders and brown recluses follow insects into garages and outbuildings in the fall. Reducing the food supply is what lowers spider pressure.
$35 a month on a 12-month ACH agreement, or $70 per visit with no long-term pest agreement, plus a $75 initial service. Thirty-plus common pests, with free re-service between scheduled visits.
