The plan
You show us what you saw. We name it, treat it, and close the gap.
A house should be quiet, sealed, and yours again. Here is the ladder out of the hole — then what we actually do on the building.
Three steps
Show us. We name it. Close the gap.
01
Show us what you saw
Call, text a photo, or book. Pest, evidence, kids or pets, building type, urgency — that is the intake.
02
We inspect and name it
Identify the pest, map the entry, and separate a retail fix from a service job. No guessed treatment.
03
Treat, close gaps, follow up
Least-risk labelled treatment, an exclusion list, and a warranty window. Aftercare in writing.
Thesis
Replace reactive chemistry with structural exclusion.
Traditional pest control is organized around the organism. Framework is organized around the assembly. If a joint takes water, it can take a mouse. If a rain screen is a cavity, it is habitat. If a dock leveller floats off the slab every March, it is a door.
Our mission is to systematically eliminate those vulnerabilities — permanently — and to put data in the hands of the people who own the asset. Spray has a place. It is not the strategy.
The method is the same at house scale and portfolio scale. What changes is the elevation count, the occupancy rules, and the file you owe a board.
Four movements
Diagnose. Close. Intervene if required. Keep a record.
01
Diagnose the envelope
We survey the building as a system: grade, cladding, penetrations, voids, mechanical openings, and interior pressure. Thermal imaging, moisture mapping, and staged inspections locate how pests actually enter — not where they happen to be seen.
02
Engineer exclusion
Pathways are closed with materials that belong on a building: metal mesh, sealant systems, door hardware, vent screening, and detailing that survives freeze-thaw. The goal is a permanent correction, not a seasonal patch.
03
Intervene with intent
Where an active population remains, treatment is targeted, documented, and subordinate to the structural fix. Chemistry is a tool. It is not the product.
04
Monitor and steward
Sensors, inspection cadence, and reporting keep the envelope honest. Property managers receive a living record — not a spray ticket.
A site visit
What actually happens on site.
No fog machine as a greeting. No verbal ‘we’ll keep an eye on it.’ You get a walk, a ranked map, and a next step you can capital-plan.
01
Scope in writing
You send the building. We reply with a proposed window, who will attend, and whether we are walking a house, a tower, or a dock face. No mystery dispatch.
02
Walk the envelope
Perimeter to roof, grade to mechanical. Thermal and moisture on suspect assemblies. Every penetration that can take a mouse gets a photo.
03
Rank the pathways
Findings come back as a file: photos, priority (safety / occupancy / capital / watch), and a close-out you can hand to operations or a contractor.
04
Close, then prove it
Exclusion and any required intervention are scoped from that file. Monitoring is how we know the joint stayed closed after the first Chinook.
On the truck
Tools that belong on an envelope survey.
Thermal camera
Finds voids, wet assemblies, and the warm cavities mice already know about.
Moisture meter
If a joint takes water, it can take a mouse. We measure, we don’t guess.
Penetration inventory
Every sleeve, weep, dock, and vent — photographed and ranked.
Calgary pest calendar
Inspections timed to mouse pressure in September, wasps in late summer, ants at grade.
Fit
This is for you if
- Owners who are tired of buying the same November
- PMs who need a file, not a personality
- Design teams who want the cavity closed before occupancy
- Homes that have had mice two winters running
Not a fit
We will decline
- A same-day fog because a guest saw a wasp and the brand wants theatre
- A perpetual spray calendar with no permission to close the building
- A building we cannot access honestly — no stack, no dock, no grade
Glossary
Language an auditor can inhabit.
- Envelope
- The walls, roof, slab, and penetrations that separate inside from Calgary weather. If it takes water or air, it can take a mouse.
- Exclusion
- Hardware and detailing that close a pathway: mesh, sweeps, screens, sealant systems. Not foam in a can.
- Pathway
- The actual route a pest uses. Photographed. Ranked. Closed. The opposite of ‘we treated the room.’
- Stewardship
- A written seasonal or quarterly program. You can leave. The file stays yours.
- Freeze-thaw
- Calgary’s habit of opening joints every spring. The reason last year’s caulk is this year’s door.
- IPM
- Inspect, threshold, intervene, evaluate. A decision framework. Not a spray brand.
- Label is law
- Health Canada-registered products, used as written. Occupancy and re-entry explained before anything goes down.
- 6 mm
- Approximate gap a house mouse can pass. If a pencil fits, the building is still recruiting.

Six questions. A ranking. Then a visit if the envelope is actually talking.
