Services
Termite Control
Our termite control specialists use advanced baiting systems and targeted treatments to eliminate colonies and prevent structural damage. We focus on low-impact pesticides and strategic monitoring to protect your property while minimizing environmental impact. Our W-Phase certification ensures expert handling of wood-destroying insect infestations.
Flea Treatment
Flea Maxx, our proprietary boron-based powder, provides year-long flea control by targeting larvae in carpets and furniture. Our technicians apply this low-dust solution to penetrate deep into infested areas while maintaining safety for pets and families through non-toxic formulations.
DIY Pest Kits
Our DIY Pest Depot offers professional-grade equipment and products for homeowners. From spray applicators to bait stations, we provide everything needed for effective self-treatment of common pests while offering expert guidance for proper application techniques.
Pest Inspection
Our comprehensive inspections identify pest entry points and infestation sources. Technicians evaluate both interior and exterior spaces to develop customized treatment plans that address current problems and prevent future infestations through exclusion methods.
Cockroach Removal
Targeted treatments for cockroach infestations combine crack-and-crevice applications with strategic bait placement. Our technicians use gel formulations and residual sprays to eliminate colonies while implementing sanitation recommendations to prevent re-infestation in residential and commercial settings.
