Tips for a good photo
Accuracy is much better when you take the photo as close up as possible, while keeping the bug in focus.
- A clear, well-lit, in-focus close-up.
- The bug fills most of the frame.
- One bug at a time, on a plain background if you can.
- Blurry, dark, or far-away photos are less reliable.
- Please keep faces out of the picture.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the bug identifier?
It suggests the top two likely matches from one photo, not an inspection. Clear photos of common Wiregrass pests usually match well, but look-alike species, damaged bugs, and poor photos can fool it. For a sure answer, call Pest-Ex at (334) 794-5903 and a technician can take a look.
What makes a good bug photo?
Use a clear, well-lit, in-focus close-up where the bug fills most of the frame. Photograph one bug at a time on a plain background if you can. Blurry, dark, or far-away photos are less reliable, and please keep faces out of the picture.
Is the bug identifier free?
Yes. Anyone can use it at no cost, and you do not need to give us your name, phone number, or email to get a result.
What happens to the photo I upload?
We only accept a photo after you agree that Pest-Ex may keep it and may share it, without your name, on its website and social media. We remove location and camera details from the photo before it is sent, and we never ask for your name or contact information.
Does Pest-Ex treat termites?
No. Pest-Ex does not do termite work. If the identifier suggests termites, please contact a licensed termite company for an inspection.
Can Pest-Ex help with spiders?
Yes. We treat spiders in homes and businesses throughout Dothan and the Wiregrass.
