Absolutely the nicest, most understanding, and friendly people you'll ever meet. I was (unashamedly) terrified of a wolf spider that was in my kitchen. They made time for me and took care of it the same day. I am so grateful! The cost is very affordable and I made the right choice by contacting Bug Off. I happily and confidently recommend them to anyone.Posted on Google![]()

Carl and Tracy are a wonderful team. Down to earth tell it like it is couple. Have rats in the attic and they sealed every entry point for me. Gave me pointers on what to do down the road not only with rats but a variety of bugs. And lawn weed killer. The kind of people you would invite to dinner.Posted on Google![]()

This is one company that the 5 Star reviews got RIGHT! I have always been a little leary of reviews since they are sometimes driven by emotion rather than fact. In this case all the positive reviews are justified. Personable, Professional, Punctual, Honest and very informative are just a few words that describe Tracy and Carl. My first impressions are wow. You just don't get this kind of service these days! Highly recommended with a price befitting the service quality!Posted on Google![]()

A wonderful family business I would like to recommend to everyone who is bugged by bugs. We had serious rodent issues on our farm, the rats were a serious threat to our chicks and they were not afraid of anything. After installing the traps, within two days I managed to fill an entire box with them and we didn't have to worry about them anymore. Carl also took care of our Termite Treatment, and was very professional about it, punctual and precise. Customer service is excellent, responsive and kind.Posted on Google![]()

I had their quarterly service for pest control, and they were absolutely amazing. It’s a family run business, and you can tell they truly care. They were always on time, super professional, and incredibly effective especially with cockroach control, which was my main concern. Very reliable and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend them!

Why Port Charlotte homeowners choose Bug Off Pest
Ten minutes down the road matters more than it sounds when you have rats in the attic on a Friday afternoon.
We have worked this housing stock for years. A technician walking into a 1970s block home on a canal already knows where to look before the inspection starts, which shows up directly in how fast the problem gets identified and how accurate the quote is.
The exclusion work is where we differ most.
We seal entry points as part of the job rather than quoting it separately afterward, because trapping without sealing is a pause, not a solution. Any company that removes the rats and leaves the gap has sold you next season’s problem.
- Ten minutes from Port Charlotte, based in Punta Gorda
- Entry points sealed, not just trapped
- Free inspection on every property, no obligation
- Price agreed before any treatment begins

Port Charlotte pest control questions
Why do I keep getting rats in my attic in Port Charlotte?
Almost always roof rats entering at the roofline, usually where a tree touches the roof or where a soffit, vent or fascia gap has opened up. Post-Ian repairs left a lot of those gaps across the community. If a company traps them without sealing the access, you will have the same problem next season. We do both as one job.
Do older Port Charlotte homes need termite inspections more often?
Annually is enough, but they genuinely need it. Block homes on slab from the platting era develop the conditions termites want as they age, and damage is usually well established by the time anything shows indoors. On a house of that vintage the inspection is worth it purely for catching it in year one rather than year six.
Which parts of Port Charlotte do you cover?
All of it. Deep Creek, Murdock, El Jobean, the canal neighbourhoods running toward the harbour, and the Kings Highway and Sandhill Boulevard corridors.
Do I need quarterly service, or will one treatment do it?
Depends what you have. A single active problem such as an ant trail or a wasp nest is often a one-time job. Roof rats, termites and anything driven by conditions around the property need an ongoing programme, because the pressure outside never stops. The inspection will tell you honestly which one you are in.
How quickly can you get out here?
Quickly. We are ten minutes away in Punta Gorda, and Port Charlotte is our largest service area. Call with your address and we will give you a real answer rather than booking a slot we cannot keep.
