Services
Pest Control
Our comprehensive pest control addresses common household pests including ants, spiders, and cockroaches. Using environmentally responsible methods, we inspect properties to identify infestation sources before implementing targeted treatments. Quarterly maintenance programs prevent future invasions while minimizing environmental impact. Treatments adapt to seasonal pest activity patterns for maximum effectiveness.
Termite Management
Specialized termite management combines liquid treatments and baiting systems to eliminate colonies. Termidor-certified technicians create protective barriers around structures using non-repellent solutions that termites transfer throughout colonies. Annual inspections ensure ongoing protection against subterranean and drywood termites. Treatment plans address both active infestations and preventive measures.
Bed Bug Extermination
Bed bug extermination employs integrated methods including heat treatments and targeted pesticide applications. Our approach addresses all life stages from eggs to adults while minimizing chemical use. Follow-up treatments ensure complete eradication. Technicians identify and seal entry points to prevent reinfestation in residential and commercial properties.
Mosquito Control
Mosquito control programs reduce breeding habitats through property assessments and standing water elimination. Monthly barrier treatments during warm seasons target resting areas while educational resources help homeowners maintain pest-free outdoor spaces. Treatments focus on reducing populations without harming beneficial insects.
Animal Management
Animal management addresses rodent and mole infestations through exclusion techniques and humane removal. Technicians identify entry points and implement sealing solutions to prevent re-entry. Integrated strategies combine trapping with environmental modifications to deter future wildlife intrusions in residential settings.

Report
Having to call an exterminator is not a pleasant situation but Kennedy made it a good experience. He and his assistant were informative, helpful and just exceptionally nice. We had a bee nest disturbed while have some work done. The contractors were stung several times and had to stop work for the day. I called Innovative and they came out the same day. The work continued the next day. No bee problem! I will use them again. I've already recommended them to others! Thank you for the great service

I have relied on IPM since 2004 and to say they are the best in the area is an understatement! Kennedy has always gone above and beyond, from.
