Learn From The Pros

Waterbugs are aquatic insects that prey on various types of creatures living in slow-moving water such as ponds and lakes. While they can be found indoors, they are often a case of mistaken identity. American and oriental cockroaches have a similar build and size to waterbugs, but are much more invasive. Most waterbug extermination calls result in finding roaches instead of actual waterbugs.

Waterbug Extermination Near You

Waterbugs are insects that tend to frighten homeowners due to their size and close appearance to American and oriental cockroaches. These predatory bugs can reach close to three inches in length! The good news is that more often than not, the bug you spotted in your damp basement is most likely not a true waterbug. The bad news? It’s probably a cockroach which is a significantly more invasive species. When you call us for waterbug extermination, we’ll be sure to investigate thoroughly to determine exactly which pest has decided to move into your home . . . and eliminate them.

Fresh Water Predator . . . or Imposter?

Waterbugs are fierce predators of the fresh water-world and feed on other insects, amphibians, and even fish. That doesn’t mean they don’t leave their watery home. Attracted by front porch lights, it’s quite possible they will find their way inside, but they aren’t going to invade like their look-a-like friends, American cockroaches. That’s why it’s really important to have one of our experts inspect your home. Knowing which of these pests you’re dealing with, determines how we treat them.

Melanie is very thorough and very passionate about what she's doing and very personable. I rather have her all the time than somebody that is not personable and thorough. She explains what she's doing and why and that's very impressive

Matt checked the vent where I heard scratching. He didn’t find anything but treated the area in case there was a returning visitor. I was pleased and would recommend Kapture Control. Quick service too!

We had an excellent experience with Kapture, especially Justin. He truly went above and beyond to help us identify and address a mouse issue that was left behind by the previous homeowners. He took so much time to thoroughly inspect our home, explain everything he found, answer every question we had, and reassure us throughout the process. With our baby due next month, this has been a huge source of stress, and Justin couldn’t have been more conscientious, patient, and understanding. He genuinely cared about making sure we felt comfortable and confident before he left. His attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to customer service were exceptional.

After calling 2 major companies and having poor experience with scheduling I called Kapture. I had a great experience with this company since the moment of phone call. The customer service rep was helpful and explained every aspect of the service. They were able to get me in for service for the following day. While I was waiting the company called to provide an ETA on the technician which I had requested. Brandon came to the home was respectful and explained everything he was going to do. He was attentive, understanding, and listened to the problem I was dealing with. He took special care and attention to my home. I will continue to use them.

I cannot recommend Aviva and Kapture Pest Control enough! Aviva came out to our local church, thoroughly assessed our situation, and immediately went to work to rectify the issue. The level of expertise, professionalism, and care shown was absolutely top-tier. If you want the job done right by someone who truly knows their stuff, ask for Aviva. Incredible service from a fantastic company!

We had our first meeting with Aviva from Kapture to have them service our new warehouse. Aviva was exceptional. She ran through the entire process which was really clear and she setup the first appointment next week. Can't wait to continue to work together!

Matt has been the best. We’ve been with Kapture for a little over a year and no regrets, worth the money. Customer service is always on point and all the service appointments have been prompt and professional.

I just started treatment but I am giving five stars because after the initial visit (mice problem) I thought some areas were not covered and the company sent Rodney right back to reinspect the whole property. He did a very thorough job. They explain everything and I am looking forward to being done with these critters by the end of the treatment. They plug holes inside and out, leave traps and are careful if you have pets.
