You asked for control

BC's most mis-identified pest. Often confused for termites. Doesn't eat wood — hollows it out for nesting galleries. Treatable with non-repellent baits plus a moisture-source fix.

Pest Mythbusters

Four things most people get wrong about pest control.

Every year, Canadians spend ~$800M on pest control — a lot of it solving the wrong problem. Here’s the real story.

Resistant strains and reinfestation from adjacent units mean almost no pest is solved in one visit. Our protocols are 2–3 visits minimum for lasting control — that’s why the 60-day guarantee exists.

Our Process

How we work, from first call to final report.

No mystery. No surprise charges. No upselling. Every step is documented and guaranteed — the same way every time.

Step 01

Call or book online

Tell us what you're seeing. Under 2 minutes on the phone or 60 seconds online. We confirm your slot immediately.

Under 2 min response
Step 02

Full inspection

A senior technician arrives in an unmarked vehicle. Full interior and exterior inspection. Diagnosis, not just treatment.

Interior + exterior, always
Step 03

Targeted treatment

Only what's needed, nothing more. Photo-documented start to finish. We walk you through everything before we leave.

Photo report within 4 hrs
Step 04

Guarantee active

60-day return guarantee on every service. If the pest comes back, so do we — no charge, no paperwork.

60-day or free re-visit
What to Expect

A visit that feels like an airline first-class lounge.

Most pest-control visits are chaos: the truck shows up, someone sprays something, you sign a tablet, they leave. We think your home deserves better choreography.

From first knock to final debrief. No one rushes, no one lingers.

Heads-up text

Real human

A real human texts you 2 hours before arrival with the tech's name, photo, and ETA window. No robot calls, no surprise knocks.

Unmarked arrival

Privacy-first

A clean, unmarked white vehicle parks nearby. Tech wears branded apparel only if you requested it — otherwise plain clothes.

Walk-the-home briefing

15-min guided walkthrough. We explain what we see, where the likely harbourage is, and exactly what treatment will happen — before any product leaves the truck.

Clinical treatment

Lot-numbered

Targeted application only. No blanket spraying. Every product used is recorded by lot number on your service report for audit + safety traceability.

Debrief + guarantee slip

You get the digital service report on your phone before we leave — including photos, exactly what was applied, re-entry timing, and your 60-day guarantee activation.

Next-day check-in

Free re-visits

Quick text: 'seen anything?' If pests are still active at day 10, we're back at no charge under the guarantee. No arguing, no paperwork.

The Wild Pest Thesis

A service company that happens to do pest control.

Zappos decided early on they weren’t a shoe store — they were a service company that sold shoes. The Wild Pest is built the same way. Every decision, every process, every hire, reverse-engineered from one question: would your best friend recommend us?

01

Guaranteed in writing.

60-day pest guarantee. 3-year wildlife exclusion warranty. If they come back, so do we — no invoice, no argument.

02

Unmarked, on purpose.

Plain white vehicles, plain-clothes techs, zero logos. Your neighbours find out only if you tell them.

03

One senior tech, your tech.

The same named technician learns your home over time. Continuity is the care you can't buy from a national chain.

04

Humane, restrained, reduced-risk.

IPM methods before chemistry. Health-Canada-approved, lot-numbered. Zero lethal wildlife methods — ever.

No logos · No signage · No phone number
The only pest co in BC that does this
The Privacy Promise

Your neighbors will never have to know.

Every vehicle in our fleet is intentionally unmarked. No bug logos, no loud signage, no phone numbers across the side. Just a clean, anonymous van in your driveway.

Because when you’re dealing with bed bugs, rodents, or a raccoon in the attic, the last thing you need is a truck announcing it to the whole block.

Unmarked vehicles
Every truck in the fleet. No exceptions.
Discreet uniforms
No obvious pest-control branding visible from the street.

Two other companies wanted to set traps for raccoons in our attic. The Wild Pest identified babies were still there, waited three days, then sealed everything. Three-year warranty. That's the right way.

Priya R.
Surrey · Wildlife Exclusion

Called at 9 AM on a Saturday about wasps in our kids' playhouse. The Wild Pest was there by 12:30. Same day. On a weekend. I don't know what the old-school companies are doing but this isn't it.

We run three restaurants. The Wild Pest took over our pest contract last month and the difference in their reporting is night and day. Health inspection was the smoothest we've ever had.

David K.
Richmond · Commercial IPM

Booked online at 10 PM after finding droppings. SMS confirmation in minutes. Technician arrived at 8 AM the next day. Unmarked van, which mattered more than I expected.

AirBnB bed bug scare before World Cup weekend. The Wild Pest heat-treated the unit in one day. Back to bookings 24 hours later. The photo report for peace-of-mind to the next guest was the extra mile.

Who we are

Not a franchise. Not a chain.

We don’t send trainees to your house. We don’t read scripts. The person on the phone is the person at your door.
