Services
Pest Control Service
Residential and commercial pest control addresses common infestations in Delaware County properties. Our technicians identify entry points and apply targeted treatments for ants, rodents, and seasonal pests. Services include thorough inspections and family-safe solutions tailored to Pennsylvania's climate and older home construction.
Termite Control
Specialized termite management for Glenolden's historic properties. We conduct comprehensive inspections to detect hidden activity, implement liquid barriers and bait stations, and provide official documentation for real estate transactions. Our Pennsylvania-certified technicians address subterranean termites in humid continental climates.
Animal Control Service
Professional removal of rodents and insects threatening Glenolden properties. Our technicians eliminate mice, rats, carpenter ants, and stinging insects while sealing entry points. Services include customized treatment plans using safe methods for homes with children and pets.
Sanitary Inspection
Wood-destroying insect inspections for property transactions and maintenance. We identify termites, carpenter ants, and beetles in structural wood, provide written reports, and recommend treatments. Inspections include contamination risk assessments from pest droppings and nesting materials.
Preventive Maintenance
Year-round pest protection plans with scheduled treatments. Quarterly visits create pest barriers, focusing on seasonal threats like spring ants and fall rodents. This proactive approach prevents infestations while addressing vulnerabilities in pre-1970 construction.
