**Pest control for offices & property management. Pest control for managed buildings.**

Preventive pest management for New York City offices and managed commercial buildings, scheduled around tenants and arranged through one service plan.

## Pest management for tenanted buildings

An office building has many occupants but one structure. Pests do not stop at a suite door: they use shared risers, ceilings, janitor closets and loading areas, and a problem on one floor can surface on another. Property managers need one plan that covers common areas and gives tenants a clear route to report concerns.

Offices rarely have a pest crisis, so the aim is prevention and quick response. We set up routine service for the building’s common spaces, add suite-level service for tenants who want it, and arrange visits outside business hours so occupants are not disrupted.

## Where pests show up

Most office pest issues start in a few predictable places.

- **Breakrooms and pantries:** Crumbs, spills, shared refrigerators and coffee stations support cockroaches, ants and fruit flies.
- **Mechanical and utility spaces:** Riser closets, mechanical rooms and ceiling plenums let mice and cockroaches travel between floors.
- **Loading and waste areas:** Dock areas, compactors and trash rooms draw rodents and flies and can feed pressure into the building.
- **Plants, desks and storage:** Desk-side food, potted plants and stacked cardboard give pests water, food and cover in tenant suites.

## Paperwork that helps management

Clear records make tenant conversations easier.

In a managed building, pest issues often turn into questions about responsibility: was the mouse in the suite coming from the riser, from the tenant’s pantry or from the loading dock? Routine common-area service with numbered monitors and dated findings answers those questions with evidence. When activity appears in one tenant’s space, the record shows whether it was building-wide or local and which repairs were recommended where.

The city Health Code places the duty to keep premises free of pests and pest-friendly conditions on the person in control, which can include an owner, a managing agent or an occupant, and it notes that pesticide use does not replace those measures. Our reports therefore separate building items, such as door sweeps, riser penetrations and trash-room sealing, from tenant items, such as pantry cleaning and desk-side food, so each can be assigned and followed up.

## Our approach

1. **Building walk-through.** We inspect common areas, back-of-house, mechanical spaces and sample tenant suites, and confirm how tenants report issues and who approves access.
2. **After-hours service.** We perform scheduled preventive service and call-out visits outside business hours, using monitors, traps and targeted baits placed discreetly in voids and equipment spaces.
3. **Preventive plan.** A standing service plan covers common areas, with written reports, tenant sighting logs and recommendations that management can use in lease and maintenance conversations.

## Your questions

### Do tenants contact you or the property manager?

Tell us which you prefer. Many buildings route reports through management so one record is kept, and we can supply a simple reporting sheet for tenants.

### Can service be arranged for individual suites?

Yes. Suite-level visits can be added by tenant request and coordinated with building management, so access and billing follow your arrangement.

### How are breakrooms handled?

We inspect appliances, cabinets and sinks, treat with baits and gels where needed and give simple tips for tenants such as sealed containers, regular cleanout and quick spill cleanup.

### What reporting does management receive?

Each visit is recorded with areas inspected, findings, work done and follow-up items, which can be filed with building records or shared with tenants.

Tell us about the building, how tenants report issues and when we can have access. We will plan the assessment around the property.

- **Describe the property:** Number of floors, whether it is single- or multi-tenant, and what common areas, dock and food spaces it includes.
- **Set the schedule:** Preferred after-hours windows, security or concierge procedures and who can authorize access.
- **List the concerns:** Floors or suites that reported pests, breakroom issues and any prior service arrangements.
