Garden Soon provides pest barrier spray in Conway, Beaver County — $85–$125 per visit for most residential properties. Older industrial-era housing stock with modest lot sizes. We treat the full foundation perimeter in Conway on every visit: foundation band, door frames, window frames, eaves, and utility penetrations.
It usually starts with ants in the kitchen sometime in May. Not a few — a trail running from the back of the cabinet to wherever they found something worth traveling for. You wipe them up, spray some store stuff, and they come back in a different spot two days later. For a lot of people, that's when they call us. For others, it's the wolf spiders that show up in the basement every September without fail, or the earwigs turning up in the bathroom in wet weather, or the centipedes that appear on the wall when the nights start cooling off. These aren't emergencies, but they're annoying enough that people stop putting up with them. The common thread is that these insects are coming in from outside — finding gaps around windows, under doors, through utility penetrations — and a properly applied perimeter treatment interrupts that entry cycle before it gets going. That's what we're set up to do.
For Conway specifically: the Ohio River moderates extremes — last frost is typically early April and first frost mid-October. High humidity along the river corridor promotes fungal pressure during hot August stretches, particularly in areas with limited air circulation.
The quarterly program runs four visits per year timed to the seasons: a spring application when ants are most active, a summer renewal through peak activity months, an early fall treatment before insects start pushing toward warm entry points for winter, and a late fall visit to maintain residual heading into the cold months. The spring visit typically involves the heaviest application. Timing each visit to roughly the 90-day residual window is what keeps coverage continuous rather than patchy.
When we pull up, the first thing we do is a quick walk of the foundation perimeter — we're looking at where mulch meets the foundation, any visible entry points, areas where moisture or wood contact might be creating conditions that attract insects. That takes five to ten minutes. Then we mix the product to label rate and load the sprayer. Application starts at the foundation base and works outward: three feet up the wall, three feet out on the soil or mulch, then we move to window frames, door frames, and any visible utility penetrations. We treat the eaves — often overlooked, but spiders build there consistently. Garage door frames get treated top to bottom. The full application typically takes 30 to 45 minutes for an average-sized house. Before we leave, we'll tell you when the surfaces should be dry, remind you to keep pets off the treated areas until then, and let you know what to expect in the first couple weeks. We also note anything we observed — open gaps around pipes, weatherstripping that's failing — that's worth addressing separately.
Per-visit pricing for the quarterly program lands between $85 and $125, with the range reflecting property size — a smaller ranch with a simple foundation footprint costs less than a large two-story with multiple structure attachments and a long garage. Customers who sign up for the quarterly program pay $300 to $450 for the full year of four visits. One-time single treatments outside of a program are available at $110 to $140 per visit. For properties with a significant existing pest issue at the first visit, we sometimes assess a first-time knockdown fee of $50 to $100 on top of the standard rate — that's for situations where we're dealing with an established ant trail or heavy perimeter activity that requires more product and more time to address properly. Interior crack-and-crevice treatment is a separate add-on and is priced based on the scope of indoor activity. Rodent control, termite treatment, and wasp nest removal are separate services not included in barrier spray pricing.

Once the product dries — typically 30 to 60 minutes after application — it's safe for pets and children to return to the treated areas. We use synthetic pyrethroid products standard in professional pest control. We confirm dry time after each visit and note anything specific worth flagging about your property in Conway.
Most customers notice a clear reduction in ant trails and spider activity within two to three weeks of the first treatment. The first week or two can actually look like more activity, not less — insects are contacting the treated zone and moving erratically before the product takes full effect. Give it three weeks before drawing conclusions, and let us know if heavy indoor activity continues past that point.
Yes, it's common to see an uptick in insect activity in the first week or two after the initial application — insects contact the treated surface, move erratically, and become more visible before dying. This is a normal part of how the product works and is actually a sign the treatment is doing something. Activity should drop noticeably after that initial two-to-three-week window.
Our standard service is exterior only — the perimeter barrier is designed to stop insects before they get inside, which handles the majority of ant and spider pressure for most homes. Interior crack-and-crevice treatment is available as a separate add-on for situations where there's already a significant indoor presence, but that's not part of the standard visit.
A lot of our pest barrier spray customers have vegetable gardens, and the first thing they ask is whether the spray is safe near their food plants. It's a fair question and we take it seriously. Most of what we use for perimeter barriers is formulated to dry on hard surfaces and stay well away from edible crops — but where exactly the beds are, how close the treatment zone runs, and what's planted matters. Those conversations about garden layout and proximity often turn into broader discussions about what's working in the garden and what isn't.
Most customers who schedule pest barrier spray in Conway also use at least one of these services:
Year-round turf health — fertilization, weed control, grub prevention, and winterizer timed to the growing season.
Weekly or biweekly mowing with edge trimming and blowdown. We cut at the right height for cool-season turf and adjust for growth rate.
One-time reclamation for neglected or jungle properties. We bring equipment rated for heavy material and haul everything out.
Spring and fall cleanup — leaf removal, debris, bed edging, ornamental cutbacks, and disposal.
Vegetable garden design, site assessment, planting plans, and seasonal coaching.
