Our inspectors will be able to make recommendations based on your property’s needs once they do a comprehensive inspection of the building. Pest control specialists are highly trained in how to inspect and monitor for a variety of common pests. Our teams seek to locate pest infestations as quickly as possible, and develop a treatment strategy to mitigate any sign of infestation.

The strategies that may be recommended for multi-family homes or apartment complexes, include:

• Exclusion (preventing pests from entering through vents or visible holes)

• Trapping
• Baiting
• Dusting
• Vacuuming
• Heating
• Sanitizing

The frequency of pest control inspections can depend on the history of the apartment complex, surrounding area pest pressures, and ongoing treatments. That said, when you see pests, it’s best to have an inspection to ensure proper treatment is taken.

This depends on the property. Start by speaking with your landlord or manager if you believe there’s a problem. Not only will they want to know of any infestation, but they may want to do a broader audit and inspection based on the size of your building and the perceived severity of the problem. Property managers may already have ongoing programs with an inspection company to monitor for issues.

Start by speaking with your landlord or property manager before calling a pest control company to treat your apartment. It’s possible that they’re aware of a situation and may be willing to cover it as part of your lease. They may also have contracts with a pest control company that can quickly address the situation.

This truly depends on the situation, but apartments are required to be habitable, and some pest infestations can quickly make apartments unliveable. If you see a pest infestation in your apartment building, please speak with your landlord or property manager.
