120 Pest is family-owned company with an ACE-certified entomologist on staff, a 5-star rating on Google, and a service approach built on one simple idea: you should be able to call your pest control company and talk to a real person who can actually help you. No call centers. No scripted answers. Just experienced local professionals who live and work in the same community you do.
Why Homeowners Choose 120 Pest
Choosing a local exterminator means choosing someone who understands the specific pest pressures that Cherokee County homeowners face. National chains send a different technician every visit. We send someone who already knows your property.
Here’s what sets us apart from other pest control companies in the area:
- 30+ years of industry experience: We’ve been solving pest problems since before most franchise operations in north Georgia even existed.
- ACE certified: Our Associate Certified Entomologist designation from the Entomological Society of America means we understand pest biology and behavior at an advanced level, not just how to spray product.
- 5-star rated on Google: Our reputation was built one customer at a time over years of consistent, quality service.
- Family-owned and locally operated: Our team lives in Cherokee County. When you call, you talk to people who know the area and can make decisions on the spot.
- No long-term contracts: We believe our service should keep you as a customer, not a binding agreement.
- Free return visits: If pests come back between scheduled treatments, so do we, at no extra charge.
Our Pest Control Services
120 Pest provides comprehensive residential and commercial pest control services designed to protect your property year-round. Whether you’re dealing with an active infestation or want to prevent one from ever starting, we have a solution that fits.
Residential Pest Control
Our residential pest protection plans cover over 15 common household pests including ants, roaches, spiders, mice, fleas, ticks, wasps, and hornets. Rather than reacting to problems after they’ve gotten out of hand, our quarterly protection approach creates a consistent barrier around your home that prevents pests from getting inside in the first place.
Every service visit includes:
- Walk-around inspection to identify pests that need immediate attention
- Spider web removal from eaves and exterior surfaces with product application to discourage rebuilding
- Granular application for extended protection between visits
- Perimeter liquid treatment at entry points where pests crawl, trail, or hide
- Interior treatment when needed, using products that are safe for your family
- Documentation with text and email service notifications and paperless billing
Our plans are subscription-based with a low startup fee, and pricing is locked in for 12 months. There are no hidden fees, no long-term commitments, and scheduling is always hassle-free. Call us at (404) 247-8091 for current plan pricing.
Natural and Green Pest Control
For homeowners who want to minimize chemical exposure, we offer a natural pest control program that uses products derived from plant oils, minerals, and naturally occurring bacteria. Our green program covers the same range of pests and includes six visits per year with free return visits. It’s backed by a money-back guarantee if you’re not satisfied with the results.
Commercial Pest Control
We provide customized commercial pest control programs for restaurants, offices, retail stores, warehouses, senior living facilities, schools, and other businesses. Our commercial services include a three-step process — inspection, plan development, and confirmed results — backed by over 30 years of experience protecting business reputations from pest-related disruptions.
For facilities dealing with rodent issues, we also offer a specialized canine detection and abatement service that uses nationally certified detection dogs to locate rodent infestations behind walls, ceilings, and machinery with speed and precision that traditional inspections can’t match.
Bed Bug Treatment
Our bed bug services include both thermal heat treatment and chemical-based options. Thermal treatment eliminates live bed bugs and eggs in a single day by safely heating the space to temperatures that are lethal to bed bugs at every life stage. All treatments include a warranty with follow-up visits built into the original price. We’re certified by Bed Bug Central and GreenTech Heat Solutions.
Termite Services
We offer liquid termite treatments using Termidor products with transfer effect technology, as well as Trelona termite baiting systems that provide active protection from the day of installation. Both options come with a one-year renewable warranty. We also provide WDO/WDIR inspections, the Official Georgia Wood Infestation Report required for most real estate transactions. We also carry Supra keys to make the process fast and convenient for agents and homeowners alike.
Mosquito Control
Our BiteZone mosquito spraying service uses a biodegradable barrier treatment that clears your yard of mosquitoes for up to 30 days per application. We also offer organic and spray-free options, as well as bee-friendly mosquito control systems and mosquito misting system installation and maintenance for homeowners who want continuous, automated protection.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Our 96 Google reviews at 4.9 stars reflect years of showing up, doing the job right, and treating every customer’s home with respect. Here’s what a few of our customers have said:
“Hal is a life saver! Most businesses do not take the time or care to help the customer if they are not the ones to do the job.” — H.
“Very professional, communicative, and courteous. 10/10 service quality, and would recommend this company to anyone.” — Remington Y.
“They took time to carefully explain our options and didn’t suggest one way over another. The heat treatment, however, is the best deal.” — Michael A.
Affordable Pest Control With Flexible Payment Options
We understand that some services, particularly bed bug thermal treatments and termite control, can represent a significant investment. That’s why we’ve partnered with Acorn Finance to offer financing options that make it easier to get the treatment you need without delay.
- Get offers from up to 12 lenders
- Credit scores as low as 540 approved
- Choose your payment term: 12, 24, or 36 months
- Apply without affecting your credit score
Whether you need a one-time treatment or ongoing quarterly protection, we work with you to find a plan that fits your budget. Our residential pest protection subscriptions spread the cost into small, predictable monthly payments so you’re never hit with a large quarterly bill.
Why Local Pest Control Matters in Cherokee County
North Georgia’s climate creates year-round pest pressure that homeowners in other parts of the country simply don’t face. Hot, humid summers drive ants, roaches, mosquitoes, and wasps into overdrive, while mild winters mean most pest species never fully go dormant. Termites are active twelve months a year in this region, and bed bug infestations don’t follow any season at all.
A local pest control company understands these patterns because we live through them alongside you. We know that the red clay soil in Cherokee County affects how termite treatments are applied. We know which ant species are most aggressive in established neighborhoods with mature landscaping. And we know that when a customer calls with a problem, they don’t want to wait three weeks for the next available appointment — they want someone who can be there quickly.
That’s the advantage of hiring an exterminator who is actually based in your community. Our technicians aren’t driving in from an hour away. They’re coming from right down the road.
