When moisture and pest sightings overlap
Notice whether the activity is beside a sink, near a door, or in a storage area that stays damp. University of Georgia Extension explains that sheltered spaces and accessible moisture can help some household pests persist. The useful question is what conditions exist at your building, not whether every riverside property has the same issue.
Describe leaks or water accumulation you have observed, along with the pest evidence. If a maintenance issue is being repaired, share that timing with AML. Avoid assuming pest treatment replaces repairs or that the disappearance of a leak proves the concern is resolved.
- Identify the exact room and any adjacent outdoor area.
- Share what changed before the sightings began, without assuming the cause.
- Keep separate notes for insects, animal activity, and building damage.
Care for the property and its setting
For a waterside home or business, mention nearby water, drainage routes, and how outdoor space is used. EPA advises keeping pesticide applications from drifting or running into surface waters and drains. Ask AML how the proposed service relates to those conditions and follow the directions provided.
Commercial pest control can be discussed for business properties. Share how each room is used and any sanitation or access requirements the plan needs to account for. Explain who can authorize work and whether the concern involves interior rooms, outdoor space, or detached storage.

Questions about service in Bon Secour
Do you serve the Bon Secour community?
Yes. AML serves the Bon Secour community. Use the street address of your home or business when requesting service; the national wildlife refuge is a different location with a similar name.
Can I request service for a property beside the river?
Contact AML with the address and concern. Explain the water and drainage setting so suitability, access, and any site-specific precautions can be considered before service is arranged.
Should every pest concern start with spraying outside?
No single method fits every problem. Identify what is present and where activity occurs first. Ask about the appropriate assessment, prevention steps, and treatment scope for the property.
