    Alright, let’s talk about finding a good place to hang your hat around Jasper, Georgia. Fred Talley here, from Faith Pest Control, and I’ve seen a lot of homes and a lot of neighborhoods in my time. When I’m not wrangling bugs, I’m often asked by folks, “Fred, where’s the best spot to settle down around here?” It’s a good question, and one that deserves a good answer. Now, Jasper itself, it’s got a charm you can’t beat. It's that classic North Georgia small-town feel, with the courthouse square, the local shops, and a real sense of community. But what folks are often looking for are those neighborhoods and developments that offer a little something extra, a bit of that mountain air and a peaceful setting, while still being close enough to town for convenience. One of the first places that always comes to mind when you talk about popular spots is **Big Canoe**. Now, this isn’t just a neighborhood; it’s practically a mountain community all its own. You’ve got miles and miles of hiking trails, beautiful lakes for fishing and boating, golf courses that are just stunning, and a real emphasis on nature. It’s a gated community, so there’s a sense of security, and the homes there range from cozy cabins to larger, more luxurious mountain homes. It's a place where people really embrace the outdoors. I’ve been in many homes in Big Canoe, and you can just feel the tranquility. Of course, with a place like that, you’ve got your homeowner’s association fees, and it’s a bit of a drive from the main shopping centers, but for many, that peace and quiet is well worth it. Then you have areas like **Bent Tree**. Similar to Big Canoe in many ways, Bent Tree is another established, gated community that offers a lot of amenities. They've got a great golf course, tennis courts, a clubhouse, and that same beautiful mountain scenery. It attracts a mix of retirees and families looking for that active lifestyle in a secure setting. The homes here are varied, with a good number of properties offering those expansive views that make living in the mountains so appealing. Again, it’s about that balance of privacy and access to recreation. Moving a little closer to the heart of Jasper, you’ll find some lovely developments that are popular with folks who want to be closer to town amenities but still enjoy a nice setting. **The Preserve at Sharp Mountain** is one that comes up often. It offers a more traditional neighborhood feel, with well-maintained homes and a sense of community. It's close enough to jump into Jasper for groceries or dinner, but it still feels removed from the hustle and bustle. Another development that's seen a lot of interest is **Eagles Watch**. This one often features homes with larger lots, giving residents a bit more space and privacy. It’s got that beautiful North Georgia landscape, and the homes are generally well-built. It's a good option for those who want to feel like they’re in the country without being too far from town. Now, for those who are looking for something a bit newer, or perhaps a development that's still growing, there are always new projects popping up. But the established ones, the ones that have a track record of happy residents and well-kept properties, those are the ones that tend to have staying power. It's also worth mentioning that people are increasingly looking at areas just outside of the main hubs of Jasper, Ellijay, and Blue Ridge. Places like **  near Tate or Ball Ground** can offer more land for your money, and you can still be within a reasonable drive of all the conveniences. These might not be formal “developments” in the same way as Big Canoe or Bent Tree, but they are popular areas where people are building or buying homes because of the natural beauty and the more rural feel. When you're considering a move to any of these areas, it's important to think about what's most important to you. Are you looking for a vibrant community with lots of organized activities? Or do you prefer a more secluded, private retreat? Do you need to be within walking distance of shops, or is a scenic drive part of the appeal? And of course, no matter where you choose to live, you’re going to want to make sure your home is protected. That’s where Faith Pest Control comes in. From ants in the kitchen to termites in the walls, we've got you covered. We know these mountains, we know the critters that come with them, and we know how to keep them out of your beautiful new home. We've serviced many of the homes in these popular developments, and we always appreciate seeing how people have made these beautiful areas their own. So, to wrap it up, if you’re looking at the Jasper area, keep Big Canoe and Bent Tree in mind for that full-on mountain resort experience. For a more traditional neighborhood feel close to town, look at places like The Preserve at Sharp Mountain or Eagles Watch. And don’t discount the areas just outside the main towns if you’re looking for more space and a quieter, more rural setting. Whatever you choose, just remember to enjoy the beauty of North Georgia. It's a special place, and finding the right neighborhood to call home here is a great decision. And when you do, give us a call at Faith Pest Control. We’ll make sure your home is as comfortable and pest-free as it can be.The post Searching for Jasper Georgia Homes first appeared on Faith Pest Control.

Dealing with bed bugs is a serious business, and if you've got ’em in your Jasper home, you need to know why Faith Pest Control is the only call you should be making.

They’re masters of hiding in the smallest cracks, behind baseboards, in the seams of your mattress, and even in electrical outlets.1 They’re not a DIY pest, folks.

I’m not just a guy with a sprayer; I'm a Georgia State Certified Pest Control Operator (and an Alabama one, too!). What that means for you is I’ve got the knowledge and the experience to inspect your home thoroughly, understand the infestation’s scope, and apply the right professional treatment.

And I’ll keep on treating it for FREE until you tell me you ARE happy. If that still doesn’t make you happy, I’ll promptly and politely give YOU back every penny of your money, plus an additional $25.00 for your time and trouble… period.” No other company in North Georgia would dare make you that kind of offer! When you're dealing with something as stressful as bed bugs, you deserve a guarantee you can actually believe in. We Treat You Like a Neighbor, Not a Number We live and work right here in Jasper. This isn’t some huge national chain where you’re just another ticket number. When you call us, you’re getting a local pest expert dedicated to protecting this community. We take the time to answer your questions, walk you through the treatment process, and make sure we’re using treatments that are safe and effective for your family and your pets. Bed bug work is serious. It involves using pesticides in and around your home.2 If you’re just looking for the cheapest price, then we are NOT the company for you. Cutting corners with something like bed bugs is something you'll seriously regret later on. That’s just not how I do business.

    Stop the Scurry: Why Faith Pest Control is Your Best Bet for Rodents in Jasper, Georgia Well, howdy folks! Fred Talley here from Faith Pest Control, right here in our beautiful corner of North Georgia. I’ve been in the pest control business for a good while now, and if there’s one thing I know, it’s that those sneaky rodents—the mice, rats, and all their cousins—are a serious, year-round menace. If you're hearing that telltale scratch, scratch, scratch in your walls or attic, or finding unwelcome droppings in your pantry, you don’t just have a nuisance; you have a potential health and fire hazard on your hands.

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve got termites on your mind—and that’s a good thing. Down here in Jasper, termites aren’t just a nuisance; they’re a silent, destructive threat to your most valuable investment.1 You need a trusted neighbor who knows these bugs and how to stop ’em, and that’s exactly what we offer at Faith Pest Control. When it comes to protecting your home from these wood-destroying pests, you shouldn’t settle for less. Here’s why you should be picking up the phone and calling us right now. My Unmatched, No-Risk Guarantee This is the bedrock of my business, and it's something you simply won’t find anywhere else. I am so confident in our termite expertise and our commitment to making you happy that I'm willing to put my name—and my money—on the line. Here's the deal: If you hire Faith Pest Control to get rid of your termite problem and, at the end of 30 days, you are not 100% HAPPY, I will personally: Come back and retreat your home for FREE.

That’s right—you will be happy with the service we provide, or you won’t pay us a penny. That's my personal promise to you. We Know North Georgia Termites (The Enemy at the Gate) You need a pest control company that knows the specific enemies we face here in the mountains. We’re a hotspot for termites, and you’re mostly dealing with two primary culprits: Eastern Subterranean Termites: These are the most common kind, living in massive underground colonies and using those little mud tubes to travel from the soil right into the wood of your home. They are relentless. Formosan Termites (The “Super Termite”): This invasive species is a growing concern.2 They have huge colonies and an enormous appetite, and the scary part is they can build their nests above ground, like right inside your walls or attic.3 This makes them much harder to find and even more destructive. We don’t just spray and hope for the best. We use advanced, proven methods like modern liquid treatments that create a non-repellent protective barrier around your home, or baiting systems that termites carry back to the colony to wipe out the whole nest.4 We utilize tools like moisture meters and infrared cameras to find them where you can’t see them—behind your walls!5 We're Your Neighbors, Not Just a National Chain I’m not only a State Certified Pest Control Operator; I'm a local, family-owned business.
