Thirty technicians, one free re-treatment promise.
Carlos Medina spent ten years at a national chain before starting Guardline in 2004 with one truck and one promise: if pests come back, so do we — free.
Today our thirty technicians protect almost ten thousand homes around Tampa Bay. We switched every routine treatment to pet- and kid-safe products in 2014, and we explain every product we use, every visit.
