Pest control should solve the problem — without putting your children, pets, or the Wisconsin ecosystem at risk. Here is exactly how we do that, step by step.
We practice Integrated Pest Management (IPM) — a science-based approach used by universities, food facilities, and government agencies. It means we identify the root cause of a pest problem and solve it with the least intervention that delivers lasting results.
Sometimes that means sealing an entry point instead of spraying. Sometimes it means a targeted botanical application instead of a broad-spectrum chemical. Always, it means we think before we treat — because what we do not apply matters as much as what we do.
Every service follows this proven sequence — so you get results that last, with minimal environmental impact.
We identify the exact pest species, locate nests and entry points, and assess environmental conditions driving the infestation — before applying anything.
We seal entry points, remove attractants, and modify the environment to make it inhospitable to pests. Structural exclusion is always our first line of defense.
Only when needed, we apply the lowest-toxicity product that effectively resolves the problem — precisely placed where pests travel, not broadcast everywhere.
We track activity over time, evaluate results, and adjust our approach. If a natural method works, that is what we keep using.
Protecting your family and pets is not a feature — it is the baseline of every service we perform.
All products are applied at the lowest effective rate. Re-entry times are clearly communicated, and treatments are placed where children do not play.
We use tamper-resistant bait stations and target pest harborage areas. Pets are kept away from treated surfaces only until dry — typically 30–60 minutes.
Every product we use is EPA-registered and applied per label directions by licensed, trained technicians. Documentation is available on request.
We avoid application near waterways and storm drains, use precision equipment, and select products with minimal environmental persistence.
We live and work in Northeast Wisconsin. Keeping these lakes, rivers, and pollinator populations healthy is personal.
We avoid treating blooming plants and flowering weeds where bees forage. Bee-safe application windows are observed, and we never spray open blossoms.
Raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and opossums are live-trapped and relocated. Bats are excluded with one-way devices so they leave unharmed. No poison for wildlife — ever.
If exclusion, sanitation, or a natural product solves the problem, that is what we use. Our goal is the least intervention that achieves lasting results.
We prioritize EPA 25(b) exempt and OMRI-listed products, and use botanical and mineral-based solutions wherever they deliver effective control.
Raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and opossums are live-trapped and relocated per Wisconsin DNR guidelines. Bats are handled with one-way exclusion doors — they leave your home on their own, unharmed, and we permanently seal the entry. It is the responsible way, and it is the only way we do it.
