Seeing Bugs After Pest Control Treatment? Here's Why It's Normal
Spotting bugs after your first service can feel like the treatment isn't working. In this video, a TruBug technician explains why it's actually a good sign, and what's happening out in your yard.
Video Transcript
So if you see bugs after your initial service, that's actually completely normal. Let me explain.
Because we're a hybrid service, we're actively trying to flush out where the bugs are coming from, and that's out in the yard. So those granules, they come into the nesting sites, they seep under there, and they flush them out from where they're coming.
And we want them to do that so they hit the product. That's exactly what we're looking for.

Why You May See Bugs After Your Initial Service
It's completely normal
Some bug activity after your initial service is expected, and it doesn't mean the treatment failed.
Granules reach the nesting sites
With our hybrid service, granules in the yard seep into the nesting sites where bugs are coming from and flush them out.
Flushed-out bugs hit the product
Bugs leaving their nests are pushed into the treated areas, so they come into contact with the product. That's exactly what we're looking for.
