Pest Problems We Handle
A pest issue can begin in a kitchen, basement, bedroom, yard or commercial space. The signs and response differ by pest, so an inspection matters. Tell us where you see activity, when it began and what you have already tried. We can assess the affected area and recommend a practical plan for your property.
- Wasp nest removal for nests near eaves, sheds, decks and outdoor areas.
- Hornet removal when a nest creates a problem around a home or business.
- Ant control for trails, colonies and recurring activity indoors or outside.
- Bed bug treatment for homes, apartments and rental properties.
- Cockroach control for kitchens, restaurants and other affected spaces.
- Silverfish control in bathrooms, basements and storage areas.
- Centipede control and prevention advice for damp spaces.
- Tick control for yards and outdoor areas.
We also assess rat activity and mouse activity, including the openings rodents use to enter a building. The treatment and exclusion plan depends on the species and site conditions.
How Our Pest Control Process Works
1. Inspect the property
We start with the activity you have seen and look for signs that help identify the pest, its likely entry or nesting areas and the conditions supporting it. The goal is to understand the scope before recommending work. In a multi-unit building or business, the technician may need to consider adjoining spaces and the way they are used.
2. Explain a treatment plan
Different pests call for different methods. A wasp nest near an entryway, a bed bug problem in a bedroom and ants appearing along a foundation do not have the same solution. We explain the proposed steps, any preparation needed and what to expect after service. Ask questions about access, timing and follow-up when you receive your quote.
3. Address contributing conditions
Treatment works best when the conditions drawing pests in are understood. Depending on the problem, this may include access gaps, food sources, moisture, storage practices or a damaged vent. We share practical prevention advice that fits the property. For wildlife and rodents, see our damage repair and entry sealing service.
Pest Control for Homes and Businesses
Empire Wildlife Removal serves homeowners, landlords and commercial properties across Durham and York Region. Pests can affect a single room, an outdoor gathering area or a larger building, and the quote should reflect that scope. If you manage a rental or business, tell us about access hours, occupied areas and any previous treatment when you call. Our team can then discuss an appropriate inspection and service plan.
