What customers say
4.8 out of 5 from 84 reviews on Google.
Steve did a great job throughout my residence. I found them because my neighbors were so please with Soul Pest control . I highly recommend this service. One more thing they have heart.
Excellent service! Steve the owner was very helpful. Very fair and affordable, was very thorough and detailed. Would definitely recommend! Thank you Steve!
I’ve used Soul Pest Control for several years now with great satisfaction. Steve is always responsive and thorough. He comes as scheduled, completes his work and reports any issues or concerns. If I’m not at home he texts his report and photos if needed. His service of treatment once every six months was new to me at first, but now I’ve seen how good it works. Very few bugs inside or out. We’ve had a few pest issues pop up due to changing circumstances, mostly new pets causing fleas, then later, no pets, and more rodent activity. In each case, I’ve been impressed with Steve’s knowledge of the pest’s behavior, life cycles, and best control techniques. His solutions were dead on (pun intended) each time. I definitely give Soul Pest Control a hearty recommendation. 3 word summary : Honest, effective, reliable.

About Mosquito Treatment
Common questions and tips from our work with Polk County customers.
What drives the cost of a mosquito treatment?
Price depends on the size of the lot, how much standing water and dense vegetation your property holds, and how many treatment areas the technician must cover. A small fenced yard with one shaded patio takes less product and time than a large lot with ponds, gutters, and heavy shrubs. We inspect first, then quote based on what your property actually needs.
Why does breeding-site reduction matter so much?
A single bottle cap of standing water can hold mosquito larvae, and female mosquitoes lay eggs in any water that sits for a week. Draining, filling, or treating those sites removes the next generation before it hatches. Barrier sprays knock down the adults resting nearby, but source reduction is what keeps populations from rebuilding between visits.
How long does a barrier spray keep working?
Most residual barrier products used in Polk County yards hold up for roughly two to four weeks, depending on rain and irrigation. Summer afternoon thunderstorms shorten that window because the product washes off foliage. We apply to the shaded resting surfaces mosquitoes prefer, such as leaf undersides and eaves, and we tell you plainly when re-treatment makes sense.
Walk your yard after every rain
Polk County's summer rains leave water in plant saucers, bromeliads, clogged gutters, and tarp folds. Empty or drain anything holding water within a day or two and you remove potential breeding sites before eggs hatch. Larvae can reach adulthood in about a week in warm weather, so a quick weekly walkthrough does real work alongside professional treatment.
Frequently asked questions
What drives the price of a pest control job?
Price depends on the size of the property, the type of pest, how established the problem is, and how many treatments the plan needs. A first visit includes a full inspection so the estimate reflects what was actually found, not a flat guess. You get the scope and cost explained before any work starts.
Which areas does Soul Pest Control serve?
We cover Lakeland, Winter Haven, Bartow, Auburndale, Haines City, Davenport, Lake Wales, Dundee, Lake Hamilton, Polk City, Poinciana, and Plant City, along with the rest of Polk County. We are a service-area business, so scheduling a visit is as simple as calling (580) 730-1209 and confirming your location.
How soon can a visit be booked?
Most calls can be scheduled within a few days, and we will tell you the earliest opening when you call. Office hours run Monday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM most days. Active infestations like roaches or wasps get priority whenever the schedule allows.
How should I prepare for the first treatment?
Prep is usually light. For inside work, clear access along baseboards and under sinks, put away food and pet dishes, and plan to keep kids and pets off treated surfaces until dry. For fleas, vacuum first and wash pet bedding. We confirm any specific prep steps when you book.
What happens during a typical service visit?
The technician inspects, explains what they found, and lays out the treatment plan in plain English. Treatments may include a perimeter barrier, crack and crevice application, bait stations, or a rodent baiting system depending on the pest. Before leaving, you get a clear summary of what was done and what comes next.
Do I need to sign up for a quarterly plan?
A one-time treatment is available, but a yearly plan with regular visits works better for Florida pests like ants, roaches, and spiders that stay active all year. If a recurring plan makes sense for your home, the technician will explain why and what each visit covers. The choice stays yours.
How do you handle wasp nests around the house?
Wasp nest removal targets the nest itself plus the surrounding area, usually eaves, soffits, and entry gaps where paper wasps and yellow jackets build. The technician treats the nest, removes it when accessible, and notes spots worth watching. Trying to knock a nest down yourself often scatters angry wasps.
Are the products used safe around kids and pets?
Treatments use EPA-registered products applied in targeted amounts, focused on entry points, harborage areas, and exterior foundations rather than broad spraying of living spaces. The technician explains reentry times and any precautions before leaving, so you know exactly when normal activity can resume.
Can you treat homes that get the same pests over and over?
Repeat problems usually mean the source is still there. We use an integrated pest management approach: an entry point inspection, exclusion sealing where gaps let pests in, harborage removal, and targeted treatments that break the cycle instead of just knocking down the bugs you can see.
Do you offer pest control for businesses?
Commercial pest control is available for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other Polk County businesses, with monthly or every-other-month plans. Service is scheduled around your operating hours, treatments are documented in writing, and recurring visits keep pest activity from turning into a customer-facing problem.
