Multi-Family Housing presents pest control challenges like no other industry or segment of the market-

• Pests can proliferate in units occupied by non-complying tenants or owners, and spread into surrounding units where they make others extremely upset.
• Pests can also be brought in by a new tenant (they may not even be aware that they are hauling "friends" in with their furniture).
• Sanitation levels vary greatly by tenant.
• Laws regulating what you as a property manager can and can not do come into play.
• "Chemophobic" tenants who do not want their units sprayed, regardless of the number of cockroaches running around.
• Or sometimes worse, the Do-It-Yourselfers who spray insane amounts of who knows what chemical cocktail and gas out the neighbors.
• Some pests you feel like you are playing a game of whack-a-mole with, as your attempts to treat one unit just means the pests run to the surrounding units
• Tenants who claim problems that may not be there, just to hold back on paying rent.

Structural Pest Control services:

We offer a full service approach for our multifamily property managers and condominium owner associations. We have the ability to handle almost any pest problem you may have:

• Your run of the mill ant/cockroach/spiders problems can be dealt with by a simple call for a quick response from a technician (for most of our accounts, we service the request the same day we receive a call).
• Detailed regular weekly/monthly preventative services help us keep the number of call back service requests low. (Some tenants see a dead bug, and call us out to kill it again, but we still consider that a win.)
• We are also familiar with dealing with wildlife invading the common areas. (Racoons are not so cute and cuddly when they are dining in the dumpster.)
• Yellow jacket nest elimination and honey bee relocation services are also availble.

Bedbugs

On top of all the other issues that property management face, you now also get to look forward to the prospect of bedbugs. In many ways, bedbugs may become one of the most important pests that property managers have to deal with. Unlike the hotel industry, where a customer may stay a night or two and not even be aware they were bitten, your tenants literally have to live with the bedbugs. There are a myriad of sites on the internet that will give you the the nightmarish details of how difficult eradication is even in a single family residences. With multifamily housing, those problems are serveral orders of magnitude more difficult. We can help of course once you discover you have a massive problem in multiple units, but we also offer something very few companies in the world can offer-

Canine Bedbug Detection

We have heard it said figuring out you have bedbugs when they are literally crawling all over the walls is pretty easy. We agree. We also know that when the infestation level is so high that bugs are seen crawling around mid-day looking for a place to hide, you have a major problem on your hands that will not go away quickly. We truly believe that detecting infestations while they are still small is the best method of dealing with bedbugs. To accomplish this we use a tool that is unrivaled for it's ability to find even single bedbugs- namely our specially trained canines. We have several detection routines available to fit your needs and budget. Our canines only detect live bedbugs, so we also have the ability to come in after a treatment and determine if it was effective long before your tenants start seeing multiple bites again if any bugs were missed.
