Answer a few simple questions about what you're seeing. We'll identify it in under 60 seconds — no photos needed, no app required.
Our interactive flowchart walks you through a series of simple, visual questions — where you found it, how many legs it has, its size and color — to narrow down exactly which pest you're dealing with. It covers over 60 common household, yard, and garden pests including ants, cockroaches, spiders, beetles, moths, flies, bed bugs, termites, rodents, and wildlife.
Unlike photo-based identifiers that require a clear image, this tool works from your description alone. It's perfect for when the pest is too small to photograph, has already disappeared, or you only saw it briefly. Each identification links directly to our detailed pest profile with treatment recommendations reviewed by licensed pest management professionals.
Ants (carpenter, fire, pavement, odorous house, pharaoh), cockroaches (German, American, Oriental, brown-banded), spiders (brown recluse, black widow, wolf, hobo), bed bugs, termites (subterranean, drywood), beetles (carpet, powderpost, pantry), moths (clothes, Indian meal, pantry), flies (house, drain, fruit, cluster), fleas, ticks, silverfish, earwigs, centipedes, millipedes, crickets, stink bugs, boxelder bugs, wasps, hornets, yellow jackets, mice, rats, squirrels, bats, raccoons, and more.
