Your first visit

What to expect when State shows up.

The same steps on every home, from the first call to the visits that keep pests out all year.

  1. Get your price, then book

    Put in your address for an instant price, or call any hour. We find a visit time that fits your week, often within a day or two.

  2. A full inspection, inside and out

    Your technician walks the foundation, eaves, soffits, garage, basement and living spaces, looking for activity, nests and the gaps pests use to get in.

  3. Your first treatment, done right

    We treat the outside perimeter and entry points with battery backpack sprayers, knock down webs and nests, and treat inside where you need it. No spray and go.

  4. Notes, photos and a plan

    You get a written summary of what we found and what we did, plus reminders before every quarterly visit. If covered pests come back after 17 to 21 days, so do we, at no extra charge.

Inspections have a fee, and we waive it when you go ahead with treatment.

I was a little skeptical when my previous bug guy retired and recommended State Termite. I had great control over the stink bugs and spiders in the basement and was worried they wouldn't be as good. BUT...THEY ARE BETTER! Nicest service techs! goes over and beyond. Truly cares about your concerns and checks everything out thoroughly. I love how we get the same tech guy out every time. He knows the house and knows our needs! 5 star service for sure! Highly recommend!
Same tech every visit

I've been using State Termite for many years. They are competitively priced and very easy to deal with. Even when I've forgotten about a scheduled appointment, they would still do the exterior of my residence. Then, I would reschedule for them to do the interior. Our tech, Ryan (who has been doing our inspections & treatments for years), is very professional and very personable at the same time. I don't have very many issues with bugs, but when I do, they usually come out within a day or two of me calling. I highly recommend using them if you're in need of an extermination company.

My service technician was PAULO DEMATOS. He sent me a text message with his tentative arrival time and followed up with the actual time when he was 10 minutes away. He was very thorough during my inspection, he checked every possible location for infestation. He was also very friendly and explained the service every step of the way. Best news - my property is clear of pests. Thank you Paulo for making this a stress free service.

Fantastic Customer Service. From the moment you call in and when the Technician arrives. Evaluated issue with flies and we did not have a infestation just troublesome. Great Information to help us. Did not try to oversell or push their services. I recommend this Company for their awesome attitude and service. This Company needs to be your first call and they will be the only one you will need.

Paul did an amazing job checking our place for bugs and educated me about what to look for, helping me to feel reassured that we were all clear.

Matthew came out to treat our home for the season. He was professional and so very educational! He informed me of each step and we discussed everything he was planning to do and benefits for each step. He spoke to me as an equal which is very important. We will absolutely use them again in the spring and we signed up for recurring treatments. Thank you for the excellent service!!!

Paul at State Termite Pest Solutions was wonderful from start to finish. He came out to treat our property for ants, both inside and around an oak tree, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Paul was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and he treated our home with real care and respect. It's rare to have a technician who makes you feel so at ease. Highly recommend Paul and the whole team!

Let me tell you how great my experience was today. Especially with, Dani. Had a very unexpected underground hive pop up as I was mowing. We have a lot of kids in our neighborhood running around so I knew this hive needed to go. I called at 9:56 am and explained my concern for the kids. They arrived and were done by 11:08 am. Dani was the tech and did an amazing job. She OBVIOUSLY loves her job and cares for her customers. Truly a pleasure to work with. Thank you all so much!

We found bed bugs in our Canton home and freaked out. Called around, went with State Termite, and so glad we did. The tech showed up on time, checked every room, and showed us exactly where the bed bugs were hiding and how he'd treat them. No pressure, no upsell, just a straight-up plan. The treatment actually worked, and they checked back to make sure they were gone. You can tell it's a family-owned business that knows Northeast Ohio. If you need a bed bug exterminator just call them. Professional, great price, done right.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How much does pest control cost?

State Shield plans start at $49 a month for homes up to 2,500 square feet, after the initial investment. Plus starts at $63 and Complete at $97. The price scales with your home's size and the plan you pick, and a finished basement counts toward the size. Put your address in the price box and you'll see your exact monthly number in seconds. Homes over 4,500 square feet start at $70 a month for Essential, and the office confirms the exact price. Bed bug heat treatment has a starting price, and you get the final price after an inspection.

Why am I billed monthly when you only come every three months?

We break up the quarterly payments to make it a smaller, easy monthly payment, so you don't have to choose between standard living expenses and keeping a pest-free home. You still get a full visit every quarter, plus return visits between them if covered pests come back.

Is it guaranteed?

Yes. If covered pest activity continues after the treatment has had 17 to 21 days to work, we come back and reservice the affected areas at no extra charge. As many times as it takes between your regular visits.

Why do I need pest control in the winter?

Cold weather is when mice, rats, stink bugs and spiders move indoors looking for warmth. Winter visits seal up and treat the entry points before they settle in, and they keep the barrier around your home in place so spring doesn't start with an infestation.

Is the treatment safe for my kids and pets?

Yes. We use products labeled for use around homes, apply them where pests travel rather than where your family lives, and tell you if anything needs to dry before kids or pets go back into an area. Let us know about little ones and pets when you book and your technician will walk you through it.

What areas do you serve?

We serve Stark, Summit, Portage, Wayne and Tuscarawas counties from our offices in North Canton and Hartville. That includes Canton, North Canton, Massillon, Akron, Green, Kent, Wooster, Hartville, Uniontown, Louisville, Alliance and the towns around them.

How do you get rid of bed bugs?

We use ThermaLock heat treatment. Special equipment raises the room to a temperature that kills bed bugs at every life stage, eggs included, usually in a single visit and without chemical residue where you sleep. We inspect first so you know exactly what you're dealing with, and financing is available.

How do I know if I have termites?

Look for mud tubes along your foundation, piles of discarded wings near windows in spring, wood that sounds hollow, or bubbling paint. Termites are common across Ohio and usually stay hidden, so a professional inspection is the surest way to know. We install and monitor the Sentricon system, and State Shield Complete includes Sentricon monitoring with a one-year renewable termite warranty.

Do I really need a year-round plan?

Pests don't keep a schedule. A plan means quarterly visits that stop problems before you see them, free return visits if covered pests come back, and a technician who already knows your home. If you only need a one-time fix, like a wasp nest, call us and we'll take care of it.

Do you work with businesses and apartment communities?

Yes. We build written plans for apartments and property managers, restaurants, healthcare, hospitality, schools, warehouses and food manufacturing, with documentation for your inspections. Use the commercial form above or call the office.

How do I book, and when can you come out?

Get your price online any time, or call our instant quote line, answered 24/7, at (330) 597-9220. The North Canton office is open for walk-ins Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and the phones at (330) 494-6199 are answered 24/7. Existing customers can manage visits and payments through My account.

Prevention first

Northeast Ohio’s preventative pest experts.

Since 1933, State Termite has protected homes, businesses and neighborhoods before infestations take hold. We don't wait for pests to show up. We stop them from getting in.

Our year-round programs build a lasting barrier around your property, from termite prevention and bed bug protection to stinging insect management, rodent exclusion and mosquito mitigation. Not sure what you're dealing with? Start with a termite inspection, or read about mouse and rat control and cockroach control. More about State.

Every town on our route gets the same visit, whether you're in Canton, Akron, Massillon or Alliance.
