Inspection
Inspection is critical for preventing and controlling stored product pests. It takes keen observers who are experts in identifying signs of stored product pests to catch issues early. Inspection should be a large portion of a pest control service.
Identification
Pest identification is a must when trying to control and prevent stored product pests. Knowing what pest we are dealing with or what pests we are likely to encounter allows us to prescribe the right treatment.
Monitor
Pheromone traps are great tools to help us trap and monitor for stored product pests. There are a variety of different monitors for different stored product pests. They can help us identify issues early, identify pests, and also monitor how treatment methods are working.
Traps
This new technology from Insects Limited allows us to monitor for stored product pests every day remotely instead of just at scheduled services. This is huge! They allow us to catch issues early and respond quickly, giving you better service and protection. The traps send daily images and allows us to see what has been captured.

What are stored product pests?

Controlling these infestations isn’t only important at home, but it’s paramount to health and safety in the food industry, including in food processing plants.

Thorn's Approach
We take a scientific approach to pest control. We start with an inspection and assessment to help us identify the pest, locate where they are, and create a specific plan for your property. Every home and business is different and requires a unique strategy.
Fly Control
Fly control requires a true expert that knows how to identify the fly species, conducive conditions, exclusion practices and then implements multiple control strategies.

Ants require a specialized approach in order to get control. Spraying the baseboards typically leads to short-term results as it does not control the colony.
