What’s Buggin’ Crestview: The Door-to-Door Dilemma
You may have seen the viral photo making the rounds in Crestview of a Door-to-Door (D2D) pest control salesman knocking on doors, promising quick fixes. At Cadenhead Services Pest Control, we don’t knock. Why? Because after 40+ years in Crestview, we don’t have to. As a family-owned business since 1983, we’ve built trust the old-fashioned way: through lasting relationships, word-of-mouth referrals, and a commitment to our community. We shop at the same stores, our kids go to the same schools, and we sponsor local sports teams and events, because Crestview is our home too. In this blog post, we’ll share why choosing a local pest control company like ours matters, especially when it comes to protecting your home from termites, mosquitoes, ants, and other pests. Let’s dive into what’s buggin’ Crestview this week!
The Benefits of Choosing Local Pest Control in Crestview
When you choose a local pest control company, like Cadenhead Services Pest Control, you’re choosing trust, accountability, and community. We’ve been serving Crestview for over four decades, and our customers are not just clients, they’re family. Unlike national brands or D2D companies that may disappear after a sale, we’re here for the long haul. Our team lives in Crestview, so we understand the unique pest challenges you face, from termites in new subdivisions to mosquitoes in spring.
Choosing local means your money stays in Crestview. We reinvest in the community by sponsoring local sports teams, events, and charities. Not NFL teams, national ad campaigns, or even NIL deals with college athletes, such as the Tennessee quarterback making headlines. We’d rather support your kid’s sports team, than pay for a flashy endorsement. It also means personalized service. We don’t churn through customers; we build relationships. Most of our clients stay with us until they move or pass away, because we treat every home like our own, using eco-friendly treatments for termites, mosquitoes, ants, and other pests. With Cadenhead Services, you’re not just a number you’re a neighbor.
Why D2D and National Brands Can’t Compete
D2D pest control salesmen and national brands, often rely on aggressive tactics, like knocking on doors, barraging neighborhoods with ads, or offering cheap, short-term deals. But what happens after the sale? Many lack accountability, disappearing when you need follow-up service. National brands often prioritize new customers over loyalty, losing one for every five they gain. At Cadenhead Services Pest Control, we focus on keeping you for life.
Unlike D2D companies, we don’t need to knock because our reputation speaks for itself. Our wrapped vehicles are a familiar sight in Crestview, and our word-of-mouth referrals come from satisfied neighbors, not cold calls. National brands can’t match our community connection, they don’t sponsor your kid’s sports team or understand Crestview’s pest challenges like we do. With us, you get reliable, eco-friendly pest control tailored to your home, backed by over 40 years of trust.
Know Your Rights: Florida’s 3-Day Cooling-Off Period
Feeling pressured by a D2D salesman into signing a pest control contract? Here’s a tip: Florida law gives you a 3-day cooling-off period for home solicitation sales over $25, just like those pest control contrracts from a D2D salesman. That means you have three business days to change your mind and cancel without penalty, no reason needed. This applies to sales made at your home, not at a company’s office, so it’s a great protection against high-pressure tactics. At Cadenhead Services Pest Control, we don’t rely on pressure, we let our reputation and service speak for themselves. If you’ve recently signed with a D2D company and are within the 3-day window, you can cancel and give us a call. We offer a better way to protect your Crestview home, with no hard sell.
