Redyns Pest Control has been protecting Bethesda homes and businesses since 1989. That is 37 years of showing up, treating the problem, and making sure it stays gone. We handle residential and commercial pest control throughout Montgomery County, and every job is handled by experienced technicians who respect your home and your schedule. If pests are a problem, we are ready to help.
Local crew. Real pest tech on the phone. Quick to respond.
We built this business around pest control like this, starting in Bethesda with a simple idea: homeowners and property managers in this area deserved a pest control company that actually knew the neighborhood.
The company started in 1989 when our founder, a Bethesda resident who had spent years working in pest control for others, decided to go independent. He had seen enough of the industry to know what customers actually needed: someone local, someone consistent, and someone who would come back if the problem was not solved. So he started small, took on residential clients in the area, and built the business one referral at a time.
Thirty-seven years later, the company is still locally owned, still based in Bethesda, and still run by people who know this area well. We have learned the pest pressures that come with Montgomery County specifically, including older construction with gaps and settling that invites rodents and insects, wooded lots that bring seasonal pressure from wasps and stinging insects, and the spring and fall cycles that push ants, stink bugs, and other invaders indoors.
When you call us, you get the people who actually show up.
We are a local pest control company homeowners rely on, and that has not changed since the day we opened.
If you've never hired a pest control company before, the process can feel uncertain. You are not sure what to expect, what it will cost, or whether it will actually work. We handle that uncertainty upfront. When you call, we ask about the pest, the property, and how long the problem has been going on. Then we give you a clear picture of what treatment looks like and what to expect afterward.
We work with homeowners, renters, condo residents, and people moving into a new home who want a clean start. We also handle rental properties and apartment units where the landlord or tenant needs a fast, documented response. Whether you are dealing with a sudden ant trail in the kitchen or a rodent issue that has been growing for weeks, we can put together a plan that fits the situation.
One call brings a pest tech to your door.
Commercial properties have different demands. Restaurants need to meet health code requirements. Office buildings and warehouses need pest activity documented. Multi-unit residential properties need scheduling that works around tenants. We understand that commercial pest control is not just about treating the problem. It is about doing it on a schedule that fits your operation, keeping records when you need them, and following up without being asked.
We work with property managers, building owners, restaurant operators, and businesses of all sizes throughout the Bethesda area. Trusted by local homeowners and property managers for their pest control, we bring the same level of care and follow-through to every commercial account that we bring to a single-family home.
Give us a call and we'll get the pests handled.
Pest pressure in Bethesda and Montgomery County follows regional and seasonal patterns. Spring brings ants and stinging insects. Summer pushes cockroaches and spiders into homes. Fall triggers a wave of stink bugs, cluster flies, and boxelder bugs looking for warmth. Winter is when rodents become a serious problem. We treat all of it, using exterior barrier treatment, interior pest treatment, entry-point sealing and exclusion, and perimeter pest control to address both the active problem and the conditions that allow it to come back.
Ants are one of the most common calls we get from Bethesda homeowners, and for good reason. The area's older homes and landscaped lots give pavement ants, odorous house ants, and carpenter ants plenty of entry points and harborage sites. A small trail in the kitchen often means a much larger colony is active nearby.
Treatment involves interior and exterior application, sealing of entry points where practical, and a follow-up visit to confirm the colony has been addressed. Carpenter ants in particular require careful attention because they can cause structural damage if left untreated. Our experienced technicians who respect your home take the time to identify the species and treat accordingly, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all product.
Cockroach infestations escalate faster than most homeowners expect. A small number of roaches visible during the day is usually a sign of a larger population hiding in wall voids, under appliances, and in other harborage areas. In Montgomery County, German cockroaches are the most common indoor species, and they reproduce quickly enough that a modest problem can become a serious one within weeks.
Treatment targets active harborage areas with interior application, gel baits, and follow-up inspection to confirm the infestation is collapsing. We also talk through harborage reduction, meaning the conditions inside the property that make it attractive to roaches, so the treatment holds longer. A follow-up visit is standard for cockroach accounts because one round of treatment is rarely the whole story.
Beyond ants and cockroaches, we treat the full range of pests common to the Bethesda area:
Reach out and we'll schedule the follow-up.
For homeowners and property managers who want pests gone, we offer service structures that fit different situations and budgets.
A one-time treatment is the right starting point when you have an active infestation and need it addressed now. We come out, treat the problem thoroughly, and give you a clear picture of what to watch for afterward. If the problem is seasonal or isolated, a single visit may be all you need.
Recurring prevention plans are built for properties that want year-round protection without having to call every time a new pest appears. We offer quarterly and bi-monthly service schedules depending on the level of pressure your property faces. Each visit includes a perimeter inspection, exterior barrier treatment, and interior treatment where needed. We track what we find and what we treat, so there is a record of activity over time.
Seasonal treatments address the specific pest cycles that hit Bethesda properties hardest, particularly the spring ant and wasp season and the fall stink bug and rodent push. These can stand alone or be built into a recurring plan.
We also offer same-day scheduling when availability allows. If you have an urgent situation, call us and we will tell you honestly what we can do and when.
Fair price every visit. On time every visit. Safe treatments every visit.
Here's what most people get wrong about pest control: they assume the price is fixed and the same everywhere. It is not. The cost of pest control depends on the type of pest, the severity of the infestation, the size of the property, and how often you want us out. A one-time rodent treatment for a small home is a different job than a recurring commercial account with monthly documentation requirements.
We explain all of that before we start. When you call for a quote, we ask the right questions so we can give you a number that actually reflects your situation. We do not show up and add costs you did not expect. We explain what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what you can expect after we leave.
We take pride in the job done right the first time, and that starts with honest communication before the first treatment.
Leave the pests to us.
We are based in Bethesda and serve residential and commercial properties throughout Montgomery County. Our service area includes the communities closest to us as well as the broader county corridor:
Whether you are in a single-family neighborhood, a multi-unit complex, or a commercial property along one of the county's business corridors, we serve your area. If you are not sure whether we come to you, call and ask. We will give you a straight answer.
Our founder had spent years working in pest control for others and decided to go independent in 1989 because he saw what customers actually needed: someone local, someone consistent, and someone who would come back if the problem was not solved. He started with residential clients in the Bethesda area and built the company one referral at a time. Thirty-seven years later, we are still locally owned and still based here.
We have spent 37 years working in Bethesda and Montgomery County, which means we know the specific pest pressures that come with this area. Older construction with gaps and settling, wooded lots that bring seasonal stinging insect pressure, and the spring and fall cycles that push carpenter ants, stink bugs, and rodents indoors are all things we deal with regularly. That local experience shapes how we inspect and treat every property.
When you call us, you get the people who actually show up. We answer calls locally, and the person you speak with is connected to the crew that will come to your property. You are not navigating a phone tree or waiting for a callback from someone unfamiliar with the area.
We serve homeowners, renters, condo residents, landlords, property managers, restaurants, office buildings, warehouses, and businesses of all sizes throughout the Bethesda area and across Montgomery County. Whether the account is a single-family home or a multi-unit commercial property, we bring the same level of care and follow-through to every job.
We stand behind our work. If the problem is not resolved after a treatment, we come back and address it. We would rather make it right than leave a customer dealing with a pest issue we were supposed to fix. That commitment is part of what has kept this business going for 37 years.
We apply products according to label instructions, which govern how and where they can be used safely. Before we treat, we ask about children, pets, and any sensitive areas in the home so we can choose the right application method and give you accurate re-entry guidance. We will tell you exactly what was applied and what precautions to follow after the visit.
We explain pricing before any work begins. When you call for a quote, we ask the right questions so the number we give you reflects your actual situation. We do not show up and add costs you did not expect, and we do not push services you do not need.
We treat the property with care and clean up after ourselves before we leave. If we move items to access a treatment area, we put them back. We also take a few minutes at the end of each visit to walk you through what was done and what to watch for in the days that follow.

We offer several ways to protect your property, from a single targeted treatment to year-round prevention plans built around the pest pressures that come with this part of Maryland. The right plan depends on your property type, the pest you are dealing with, and how much ongoing coverage you want. Here is a straightforward look at what each option includes so you can call us ready to talk through the details.
| Service Plan | Ideal For | Service Frequency | Common Pests Covered | Things to Know |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One-Time Treatment | Urgent or isolated pest problems | Single visit | Ants, Wasps, Hornets, and Yellowjackets, Cockroaches, Spiders | Good for move-ins, move-outs, or a sudden infestation. We inspect, treat, and walk you through what prevention looks like going forward. |
| Monthly | Properties with persistent or high pest pressure | Every month | Cockroaches, Ants, Mice and Rats, Spiders, Silverfish | Keeps activity from building between visits. Well suited to older homes, high-density rentals, or any property where pest pressure runs year-round. |
| Bi-Monthly | Homeowners who want consistent coverage without monthly visits | Every two months, six visits per year | Ants, Cockroaches, Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs, Spiders, House Centipedes | A solid middle-ground plan that covers the active seasons and keeps the exterior barrier fresh through fall stink bug migration and spring ant activity. |
| QuarterlyMost Popular | Year-round residential pest prevention | Every three months, four visits per year | Ants, Cockroaches, Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs, Carpenter Ants, Deer Ticks (Lyme) | Our most common residential plan. Each visit is timed to the season so we are treating for what is actually active, from spring ants to fall stink bugs to winter rodent pressure. |
| Seasonal (Spring & Fall) | Properties with specific seasonal pest concerns | Two targeted visits per year | Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs, Cluster Flies, Asian Lady Beetles, Odorous House Ants | Spring treatment addresses overwintering pests re-emerging and early ant activity. Fall treatment focuses on stink bugs, cluster flies, and other pests pushing toward warm structures before winter. |
| Rodent Control | Active mouse or rat problems, or properties prone to rodent entry | Initial treatment plus follow-up visits as needed | Mice and Rats | We inspect for entry points, place bait and trapping where appropriate, and schedule follow-up visits to confirm the problem is resolved. Entry-point sealing is part of the process. |
| Commercial / High-Traffic | Offices, restaurants, warehouses, and multi-unit properties | Customized to the property and regulatory needs | Cockroaches, Ants, Flies, Mice and Rats, Spiders | We build a service schedule around the property type, occupancy, and the pest pressures specific to the building. Documentation is available for properties that require service records. |
What is the difference between a one-time treatment and a prevention plan?
A one-time treatment handles the pest problem that is active right now. A prevention plan builds on that by creating an ongoing exterior barrier and scheduling interior spot treatments as needed through the year. In a place like Bethesda, where pest pressure shifts with the seasons, a recurring plan is usually more effective than treating each infestation as it comes up.
How does a recurring prevention plan work?
We schedule visits at your chosen interval, quarterly or bi-monthly for most residential customers. Each visit includes an exterior perimeter application, an inspection for new activity, and interior spot treatments if we find anything active. We tailor each visit to what is actually going on at that time of year rather than running the same treatment every time.
Are the treatments safe for children and pets?
We use products and application methods appropriate for occupied homes. For most interior treatments, we ask that people and pets stay out of treated areas until the product has dried, which is typically a short window. We will give you specific guidance when we schedule the visit so you know exactly what to expect.
Transparent Upfront Pricing
We give you a clear number before any work begins. Quotes are based on property size, pest type, and service frequency, and we do not add costs you did not expect.
How does exterior barrier treatment keep pests out?
We apply product along the foundation, around entry points, and at the perimeter of the property to create a treated zone that pests cross before they reach the structure. It is most effective when combined with entry-point sealing and moisture reduction, which we address as part of the inspection process.
Why do pests sometimes come back after a treatment?
A single treatment eliminates the pests that are present and active at the time of the visit, but it does not always reach every egg, harborage site, or entry point in one pass. Pests can also re-enter from outside if the exterior barrier has worn off between visits. That is one of the main reasons a recurring plan outperforms a single treatment over time.
What are the warning signs of a carpenter ant problem?
Carpenter ants are most active at night, so you may not see them directly. Look for small piles of coarse sawdust-like material near wood structures, window frames, or door frames. You may also hear faint rustling in walls. Carpenter ants are drawn to moisture-damaged wood, so any area with a past or current moisture problem is worth inspecting.
Recurring Plans With No Long-Term Contract
Our prevention plans run on a schedule that works for your property, and you are not locked into a contract. We keep the work by doing it right.
What should I do about an active wasp or hornet nest?
Keep people and pets away from the nest and avoid disturbing it. Wasps and hornets will defend an active nest if they feel threatened. Call us and we will get a technician out to handle the removal safely and apply exterior treatment to discourage them from rebuilding in the same spot.
How does the season affect pest pressure in this area?
Spring brings ant activity, particularly odorous house ants and pavement ants trailing indoors as colonies expand. Summer is active for wasps, hornets, and yellowjackets. Fall is when brown marmorated stink bugs, cluster flies, and Asian lady beetles push toward warm structures to overwinter. Winter brings rodent pressure as mice and rats seek shelter. A quarterly plan is timed around these cycles.
Experienced With Local Pests
We know the pest pressures that come with this part of Maryland, from deer tick habitat in wooded yards to fall stink bug migration and carpenter ant activity in older homes. That local knowledge shapes every treatment plan we put together.
Do your recurring plans require a long-term contract?
No. We earn the ongoing work by doing the job well, not by locking customers into agreements they cannot get out of. If you want to stop service, you can. We would rather keep your business because the treatments work and we show up when we say we will.
Can I get a treatment between scheduled visits if pests come back?
Yes. If you see activity between your scheduled visits, call us and we will come back out. We stand behind the work, and a re-treatment between visits is part of what it means to have an ongoing plan with us.
How does the technician decide on the right treatment plan?
It starts with the inspection. We look at where pest activity is concentrated, what conditions on the property are contributing to the problem, and what the pest pressure history looks like. From there we recommend a plan based on what we actually find, not a one-size-fits-all package. If a one-time treatment is the right call, we will say so.
Call us at (227) 997-8956 and we will walk you through the options, answer any questions, and give you a straight answer on what your property needs.
