On a schedule, not on a whim

Commercial pest control in Tucson

Commercial pest control in Tucson keeps restaurants, offices, apartments, grocery stores, HOAs, schools and other businesses free of pests on a set service schedule, so nobody has to wait for a customer or a tenant to spot one.

We work a building the way we work a house, inspection first, then treatment chosen from what we find. The approach is "integrated pest management": exclusion, barriers and sanitation first, with pesticides as one tool among several, which matters where people eat, work and sleep.

Where food is served

Pest control for restaurants and food businesses

In a kitchen or a dry goods storage room we inspect, treat the cracks and crevices and keep monitoring, because mouse activity there is a compliance problem before anyone sees a mouse.

Every food account gets these on each visit:

  • InspectionUnder the line, behind the storage shelving and along the floor-wall junction, where activity shows first.
  • Crack-and-crevice treatmentProduct placed into the gaps where cockroaches hide, not sprayed across prep surfaces.
  • MonitoringStations checked every visit, so a change in activity is caught between services.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency publishes the guidance on using pest control products safely that our label-first approach follows.

From the first visit on

Scheduled service and monitoring

Scheduled service clears the pests you have now, then keeps them out with exclusion, perimeter treatment and serviced bait stations, on a monthly or every-other-month schedule.

Each account runs through these steps in order:

  1. Clear what is there

    The first visit starts with an inspection inside and out, then treats the pests already in the building.

  2. Seal the way in

    "Exclusion" is the trade word for pest proofing: we close the gaps and entry points pests use to get inside.

  3. Treat the perimeter

    A perimeter treatment holds a barrier around the outside of the building between visits.

  4. Service the bait stations

    Tamper-resistant "bait stations", the boxes people call rat boxes, are checked and serviced regularly.

How often we come back

The schedule follows the building, not a fixed calendar we sell everyone. Monthly service is typical while a problem is active, and it drops to every other month once things are under control.

What it costs

How commercial pest control is priced

Commercial pest control is priced by the building, the pests in it and how often we visit, and the figure here is what a typical job runs locally.

What moves a building's price up or down:

  • The size of the building and the lot around it
  • The pest, and how far the infestation has spread
  • A one-time treatment or recurring service, which are priced differently
  • Rodents, bed bugs, birds and termites, which need an inspection before the job can be priced

A typical job in Tucson

$200 to $1,000

Your building's own figure comes from the free estimate, and we quote the whole job before we start, with no surprise charges after.

Holly McNeill Google review
Sean was helpful and explained in detail the type of termites we’re dealing with and how to best treat them. He explained where we had/didn’t have damage, what to look for in the future and why they were missed by the previous home owners. Highly recommend Sean and this company!
Ava Clare Google review
RKC Pest Management LLC is excellent. Have had them for many years and no pests. Sean is very thorough and conscientious. Would definitely recommend this company without hesitation.

What we hear about

Pests businesses call about most

Businesses call us most about rodents, cockroaches, bed bugs in multi-unit buildings and termites.

Here is how we handle each one in a building:

  • Kitchens and storage

    Rodents

    Mice in a kitchen or dry goods storage are a compliance problem before anyone sees one, so we seal, trap indoors and keep bait stations outside where the setting calls for them.

  • Food and break areas

    Cockroaches

    We use targeted "crack-and-crevice treatment", product placed into the gaps where roaches hide rather than sprayed across the room.

  • Multi-unit buildings

    Bed bugs

    In apartments the neighboring units get treated too, or the bed bugs come back through the shared walls.

  • The structure

    Termites

    Termites need an inspection before the job can be priced, and the treatment is chosen from what the inspection finds.

Rodents in commercial buildings

Inside a commercial building we keep rodents out by sealing the way in and trapping, and outside we keep tamper-resistant bait stations in the settings that call for them. The stations outside are checked and serviced regularly, so a change in activity shows up between visits.

Bed bugs in apartments

In an apartment building the units next door need treating too, or bed bugs come back through the shared walls. That is why an apartment job is planned around the units, not one door at a time.

Other pest control services we offer

We also treat the other common household pests, each with its own service.

Commercial pest control questions

How much does commercial pest control cost?

Commercial pest control in Tucson typically runs $200 to $1,000 a job. Where a building lands depends on its size, the pests and the visit schedule, and a one-time treatment is priced differently from recurring service. The exact figure for your building comes from the call and a look at the site.

What is the hardest pest to get rid of?

In commercial buildings, bed bugs in apartments take the most planning, because the neighboring units need treating too or the bugs come back through shared walls. Mice in a kitchen are close behind, since their activity is a compliance problem before anyone sees one.
