Grattan Pest Solutions offers comprehensive termite management using baiting systems and liquid treatments. Our certified inspectors identify infestations early, employing EPA-approved methods to protect properties from subterranean and Formosan termites. We specialize in structural repairs and prevention strategies tailored to residential and commercial buildings.
Pest Prevention
Our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs focus on long-term prevention through structural maintenance, sanitation, and targeted applications. We address conductive conditions like moisture and wood-to-soil contact, creating customized plans to deter ants, rodents, spiders, and other common pests in homes and businesses.
Mosquito Barrier
Seasonal mosquito reduction services protect properties from April through September. We apply periodic treatments to outdoor areas, targeting breeding sites and reducing populations to minimize bites and enhance outdoor comfort for homeowners and commercial clients.
WDI Inspections
Certified wood-destroying insect inspections provide detailed WDIR-100 and CL-100 reports for real estate transactions. Our thorough assessments identify termite activity, moisture damage, and structural risks, ensuring compliance with lending requirements and facilitating smooth property closings.

We seal gaps, repair vent screens, and address entry points to prevent pest intrusion. This service includes crawlspace moisture control, foundation vent installation, and structural repairs to keep pests like rodents, insects, and wildlife out of residential and commercial properties.
