A pest problem can threaten the health and safety of your products, customers and employees, and be fatal to your reputation. Our goal is to give you the peace of mind that comes with year-round protection and an effective, results-driven process. At Orkin, we use an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach, which we call A.I.M., to help prevent pest activity before it occurs and reduce dependency on chemical treatments. The A.I.M. process is not a one-time event. It's an ongoing cycle of three critical activities that happen at every service visit.
Our approach centers on a deep understanding of pest biology and the latest industry research. The more we know about pest biology, the better we're able to control them. Effective mosquito prevention is all about knowing where to start. So, your Orkin Commercial Pest Specialist will assess the situation at your property by conducting a detailed site inspection of potential breeding areas. Then, based on our findings, we'll customize a Mosquito Control program that fits your business's needs. While mosquitoes are mostly known for the red, itchy bites left from the allergic reaction of human skin to their saliva, this pest can pose a more serious health threat due to the deadly diseases they can carry.
Bed bugs are troublesome household pests. They're sneaky, hard to find, and can pose potential health risks for you and your family. Armed with pest control capabilities backed by science, over 100 years of experience, and state-of-the-art tools and products, Orkin is well-equipped to assess your bed bug problem and mount a strategic response to rid your home of the pest and provide maximum protection. To the untrained eye, rooting out a bed bug infestation can prove difficult, and even if discovered, home remedies and over-the-counter deterrents are often ineffective.
Mosquito treatment is usually an integrated effort involving source reduction plus the use of chemical control products when needed. Since mosquitoes develop in water, source reduction targets and eliminates water sources favorable for mosquito breeding. While source reduction is the more effective long-term approach to mosquito treatment, the mosquito treatment plan may require using chemical products to supplement source reduction. The mosquito treatment plan begins with your pest management professional conducting a thorough property inspection and identifying the kind of mosquitoes causing problems.
Out of sight doesn't always mean out of mind. Household pests like ants, cockroaches, and rodents can be much more than a nuisance - they can become a threat to your property and potentially your health. Pest control from Orkin provides peace of mind in helping protect your home now and in the future. No matter the season, it's important to keep pests out of your home all year long. And keeping them out isn't a one-time event. That's why our pest control specialists deliver customized protection backed by science to rid your home of pests year-round.
Rodents are warm-blooded mammals that, like humans, can be found throughout the world. They have oversized front teeth for gnawing and check teeth, which are adapted for chewing. Rodents chew on a variety of items available to them and cause great damage in and around homes. Orkin professionals are trained not only to address current infestations but also to prevent future infestations. Scheduling a home inspection may help you get rid of rodents. It is recommended that anyone experiencing a rodent infestation contact a pest control professional to arrange for a consultation.
Based on the layout of your home and the degree of termite infestation, Orkin will create a customized treatment plan tailored for your home. This termite solution is safe for indoor and outdoor application and can be used within building foundations to provide a protective barrier around your home. In addition to immediate protection, this treatment guards against future infestations. In order to deliver the exact amount necessary, we employ application flowmeters after each treatment that record the amount of termiticide used in the area and the cumulative suggested total.
Our approach centers on a deep understanding of pest biology and the latest industry research. The more we know about pest biology, the better we're able to control them. Termites are experts at undermining your business. They feed on cellulose, including structural timbers, flooring, doors and doorframes, window trim, and even pieces of furniture. Orkin's custom Termite Control programs help provide ongoing protection to address any current termite activity and help prevent future infestations.
Our approach centers on a deep understanding of pest biology and the latest industry research. The more we know about pest biology, the better we're able to control them. Rats and mice not only contaminate food and spread diseases, but also gnaw through walls and electrical wiring, making them among the most destructive of all pests that can invade your business. Your Orkin Commercial Pest Specialist will address the problem at every level, from perimeter areas and entry points to nesting sites and beyond.
Flies are among the filthiest of all pests, leaving potentially hazardous germs everywhere they land. They breed quickly and can contaminate food or spread disease, which can threaten your customers, your business and your bottom line. And because every situation is unique, there is no single fly control program that will work in all cases. That's why you need a pest control provider with the experience and the tools to find the right one for you. Sometimes a clean facility or kitchen is just not enough.
An Orkin mosquito treatment plan begins with a thorough property inspection by a highly-trained pest control technician to locate and identify mosquitoes and the places they breed in and around your home. Once the inspection is complete, your Orkin technician will prepare a mosquito treatment plan that's right for you. When we treat your home for mosquitoes, we'll give you a customized solution based in science. With award-winning training and advanced technology, your Orkin technician will look for conditions that invite mosquitoes, tackle current infestations, and stop the life cycle to help reduce the number of mosquitos in your yard.

Flea control is, therefore, more difficult in warmer climates where their entire reproductive cycle may be completed within two weeks. Both humans and pets can suffer from flea bites. Although most fleas don't live on humans, they can bite humans, causing skin irritation, allergies, and human diseases such as typhus and tularemia. The Orkin Man will first inspect your home for fleas.
