Services
Termite Control
Our termite control specialists use the Sentricon System, the same technology protecting the White House, to eliminate termites and prevent future infestations. This baiting system targets subterranean termites through strategically placed monitoring stations that detect termite activity and deliver targeted treatment. Our technicians conduct thorough inspections to identify entry points and moisture issues contributing to infestations, providing comprehensive protection with regular monitoring and maintenance.
Bed Bug Removal
We employ heat treatments and targeted chemical applications to eliminate bed bugs at all life stages. Our certified technicians conduct detailed inspections of mattresses, furniture, and wall voids, using thermal remediation to kill hidden pests. The process includes mattress encasements and follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication, with preventative measures to avoid future infestations in residential and commercial properties.
Wildlife Management
Our licensed wildlife specialists humanely remove nuisance animals like raccoons, squirrels, and bats using live traps and exclusion techniques. We conduct property inspections to identify entry points, install one-way doors for safe removal, and implement exclusion measures to prevent re-entry. Services include attic cleanouts, den removal, and habitat modification to deter future wildlife intrusions in residential and commercial settings.
Mosquito Protection
Our seasonal mosquito program reduces populations through targeted treatments of breeding sites and resting areas. Technicians apply residual adulticides around properties from April through October, focusing on shrubs, decks, and damp areas. The monthly treatments create a protective barrier while minimizing environmental impact, helping homeowners enjoy outdoor spaces with significantly reduced mosquito activity.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Our CrawlSpace Care system prevents moisture-related damage through complete encapsulation using heavy-duty vapor barriers. The process includes drainage solutions, insulation installation, and humidity control systems to eliminate condensation. By sealing crawl spaces and regulating moisture levels, we prevent mold growth, wood rot, and pest infestations while improving energy efficiency and indoor air quality for homeowners.
