“I’ve used this pest control company for almost 20 years now and they are always prompt, have excellent communication, are careful around the house, are knowledgeable, give good advice when it comes to keeping critters on the outside of your home and have great people skills.”
“Since we started using advanced termite and home inspection bugs have disappeared. No more running into the house from the swimming pool due to being attacked by mosquitoes. This company is the best I have ever had. Well worth the price.”
“…reached out to Advanced this morning via text. In 5 minutes or less, Chris Matthews called me back and walked me through the issue and put my mind at ease.”
“Absolutely amazing customer service, inspection and treatment. Same day inspections with next day treatments. I couldn’t be happier.”
“They provide readings of moisture and temperature, and they photograph everything— even from above with the help of a drone. I would definitely hire them again.”
“They handled our new construction pretreat professionally, stayed on schedule, and provided all required documentation without any follow-up needed.”

Questions before takeoff
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does pest control cost?
Our general pest control service starts at $197 for the initial treatment, which covers the interior, exterior, crawl space and attic. After that, ongoing protection is $37 a month. We also offer bundled packages with mosquito control, fire ant treatment and termite protection for extra savings.
Can termites get into brick or slab homes?
Absolutely. Termites can get in through a crack as small as 1/64th of an inch. A concrete slab is just the floor, and everything above it is wood. Termites can travel up to 130 feet from an entry point, so they can reach any part of your home. Brick, slab and manufactured homes are all at risk.
What are palmetto bugs? Are they different from roaches?
Palmetto bugs and water bugs are common nicknames for cockroaches. Lots of homeowners in Eastern North Carolina, especially around New Bern, use these names, but they’re all roaches. Our pest control treatments are very effective at clearing them out of your home.
What areas do you serve in North Carolina?
We serve Eastern North Carolina, including Greenville, Winterville, New Bern and the communities around them in Pitt, Craven, Beaufort and Lenoir counties. Whether you need pest control, termite treatment or a home inspection, we’re your local experts. See the full service area.
Do you offer free termite inspections?
Yes, we offer free termite inspections for homeowners in our service area. A trained technician checks your property for termite activity, moisture damage and possible entry points. If treatment is needed, we’ll walk you through your options and give you a clear, upfront estimate before any work begins.
