Stop Spraying. Start Sealing. Take Your House Back.
A 30-day field protocol for homeowners done with monthly exterminator bills and Raid that wears off by Tuesday.
You Know This House Too Well.
The flashlight check before bed
Every night you sweep the kitchen counter before turning off the light.
The $283 quarterly bill
The exterminator sprays the baseboards and the ants come back by Labor Day.
The grandkid visit you canceled
You moved Easter dinner. Easier than explaining the kitchen.
The wall you can hear at 3 AM
Something is moving behind the drywall. The traps in the attic stay empty.
The Raid worked. For four days. That was the design.
Three Things The Pest Industry Sells You.
Contact spray kills the one bug you see. The harborage in the wall void breeds 40 more by Friday.
Truth: You don't have a bug problem. You have an entry point problem.
$1,200 a year for a residual that breaks down in 90 days, on purpose.
Truth: Sealed gaps don't expire.
Every infestation is food, water, or shelter you didn't know you were offering.
Truth: Remove the conditions and the pests leave.
Why The Bugs Keep Coming Back.
You're killing scouts, not colonies.
The roach you stomp is the slowest one. The 200 in the wall void are getting fatter on crumbs you can't see.
The Fix: Week 3 — colony bait rotation, not contact spray.
Your home leaks pests like a screen door.
Pipe penetrations, weep holes, dryer vent gaps — every one is a doorway most homeowners never check.
The Fix: Week 2 — the Entry Point Elimination Checklist (40+ spots).
Pests need three things. You give them all.
Mulch on the foundation, a leaky hose bib, cardboard in the garage. The Survival Triangle is in your yard.
The Fix: Week 1 — perimeter defense before you spend a dollar on bait.

Sealed the dryer vent gap on day 9. Mice gone by week three.
Worth it for chapter 6 alone.
The borax ratio in the appendix actually killed the carpenter ant trail in our garage. Stopped buying Terro after a decade.
First pest book I've read that didnt feel like a sales pitch. The seasonal calendar is taped inside our pantry door.
Finally understood why the Orkin guy keeps coming back every 90 days.
Cancelled the quarterly service last week. First quiet October in years.
What This Costs You. With And Without.
| Year One | Without The Protocol | With The Protocol |
|---|---|---|
| Quarterly exterminator | $283 × 4 = $1,132 | $0 |
| Retail sprays & traps | $15/month = $180 | $48 in materials, once |
| Hours spent on it | Roughly 40 hrs/year | 14 hrs in month one, then minutes |
| Pests still in your walls | Yes | No |
If The Book Doesn't Cover Your Problem.
I spent 30 years figuring this out the hard way — on my own house first, then on neighbors' houses for free. The book covers the patterns I've seen most often.
If your situation isn't in there, write me at [email protected]. I read the emails and I'll give you what I know.
Honest Filter — Is This For You?
✓ This is for you if:
- You own the house and you're staying in it.
- You've already burned cash on at least one exterminator visit.
- You can caulk a gap and follow a checklist.
- You want the cycle over, not just paused for 90 days.
✕ This is NOT for you if:
- You rent and your landlord won't let you seal the exterior.
- You expect a one-day miracle without lifting a tool.
- You've got a confirmed structural termite infestation — that needs a licensed pro.
