Frequently Asked Questions

Upon arrival, a Burrow Busters technician will inspect the property to identify burrows/underground tunnels for treatment. Then the technician will methodically treat each active burrow sysstem using our specialized carbon monoxide fumigation equipement to inject pressurized exhaust containing a high concentration of carbon monoxide directly into the tunnel system for several minutes before moving probes to next infested area

After treating all active burrow systems on the property, the technician will then flatten all surface tunnels/ridges using a 400lb Agri-roller for easy detection of continued activity after treatment. Typical treatment at your home will take approximately 1-2 hours

Every situation is different but generally speaking to treat a residential property up to 2 acres costs $200 with an additional $75 for each additional acre. 

We also have quarterly and annual plans available for customers with large private, agricultural, equestrian and/or commercial properties. These plans offer static pricing that includes both scheduled and on-call treatments for effective, long-term management of burrowing rodents. Please contact us for further information and specific pricing for your situation

We stand by the quality of our work with our exceptional 7 day satisfaction gaurantee. If burrowing rodent issues persist within a week after our treatment, we'll provide a follow-up treatment at zero cost to you.

At this time, we DO NOT provide any services aimed at other wildlife pests outside of burrowing rodents such as bees, snakes, bats, etc. Our technicians do not carry the equipment necessary to address these situations (traps, snares, etc.). 

However there are plans to expand our services to include other backyard pests including bees, ticks, mesquitos and nuisance birds so STAY TUNED!
