Our Process

Our Process: Reliable Pest Control for Yelm Homes

We pride ourselves on a simple, straight forward no-frills process.

You call, we inspect and diagnose

Our process begins with a thorough Peace of Mind inspection, where a licensed technician examines your entire Yelm property from the crawlspace to the attic to identify existing pest pressures and potential vulnerabilities.

We specifically look for and document conducive conditions created by summer weather, such as moisture attracting ants or overgrown vegetation providing access for spiders, creating a detailed report with photos and recommendations.

We treat pests where they live

Our second step involves applying targeted treatments directly where pests live, breed, and travel to eliminate the core of the infestation. For example, we may apply professional-grade products like Transport Mikron into cracks and crevices for bed bugs or use a combination of dust and liquid residuals to neutralize in-ground yellowjacket nests.

We report our findings, and create a plan

After completing our thorough treatment, we provide you with a detailed report documenting all findings, pest activity levels, and the specific treatments applied to your Yelm property. We then establish a customized ongoing maintenance schedule designed to keep your home protected year-round from August active ant colonies, emerging spiders, and the wasps beginning to build nests around your eaves as Pacific Northwest summer temperatures rise.
