What is commercial pest control?
A plain-English overview of what's included and how it works.
Commercial pest control is Integrated Pest Management (IPM) built for audits. Every facility — restaurant, warehouse, healthcare, multi-family — gets a written scope, monitoring devices, and a digital service log that stands up to health inspectors and third-party auditors. Discreet visits, uniformed technicians, and 24/7 emergency response are the baseline.
