Common Pests

Local guides · Same day · 24/7 emergency

Vancouver-specific pest control for the species Metro homeowners and stratas search for most: ants, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, termites, raccoons, squirrels, bats, birds, skunks, moles, coyotes, and more.

Local pest control guides for Metro Vancouver & the Fraser Valley corridor

These pages mirror what neighbours actually search after a sleepless night: ants in the kitchen, cockroaches after a leaky pipe, rodents in the ceiling, bed bugs in a rental, or wildlife on the roof. Each guide is written for homes, strata units, rentals, restaurants, warehouses, schools, and small businesses across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Tri-Cities communities, Delta, Langley and the surrounding Lower Mainland.

ProPestClean Pest Control blends inspection-led Integrated Pest Management (IPM), licensed treatments, humane wildlife options where appropriate, exclusion and proofing recommendations, odor or cleanup coordination when infestation damage is severe, documentation for property managers where needed — and clear human explanations before we treat.

Scheduling is prioritized for urgent hazards like stinging insects, severe rodent activity, biting insects, rapid bed bug introductions, contaminated voids — or audits before a strata meeting. Not sure where to start after spotting droppings or hearing scratching? Grab the guide below that matches what you're dealing with — or call 778-819-4679 for same-day & overnight options whenever possible.
