Bugs
We are nearing the 1 year anniversary of the purchase of our house. The pest control contract is set to expire in early Jan. We used Massey for this service. We have started to receive renewal notices from them and we renewed the contract. Then we received another bill for termite protection. It seems that termites are not included in the pest control service.So we paid that one also. We recently spent a few weks at the house and got a call that it was time for our free annual termite inspection which was done with no problems noted. Since returning to Maine we got another letter from Massey offering to do a $300 inspection for some kind of termite from Formosa and some other type of wood boring insect and then it will cost another $25 a year added to our contract from then on. Being from Maine we really don't know much about these types of insects but what we really want to know is how much of this is really needed and what is the average cost for pest protection for a 1700sq/ft home.
