Each type of device is made to prevent rodent infestations with monitoring systems that are intelligent, eco-friendly, and always-on.

Bed bug infestations are a big problem for homes and businesses across Virginia, and the same is certainly true for Harrisonburg. These parasitic pests are small, flat, oval-shaped insects that feed on human blood, leading them to invade any homes they come across before quickly multiplying and taking it over.
Bed bugs are usually carried into a property undetected on luggage, clothing, or even directly on the skin. They can be difficult to identify and even harder to eliminate because of their ability to hide in a number of small spaces in your home or business, including:
- Inside mattresses and mattress seams
- In laundry
- In clutter
- Inside carpets
- In-between floorboards or behind baseboards
- Behind electric outlet covers
- In personal items or electronics
