About us

Choosing the right pest control provider comes down to finding a licensed, insured expert who delivers real value rather than just the lowest price. When you work with True North, you get direct, dedicated service from the owner-operator, and I take personal accountability for your property's safety and results. Before starting any service, every client receives a clear explanation of the pest issue, the extent of the activity, and the exact steps needed for a lasting solution. True North's approach to IPM (Integrated Pest Management) identifies not only the pests but the true cause of the problem. We address the pest in the most environmentally responsible way to alleviate current issues and help prevent any future resurgences.

One Owner. One Number. One Promise: It's Handled.

Work With Us

Treatments begin with a thorough inspection to identify and treat the root cause to target current pests and prevent future outbreaks. If pests return between scheduled maintenance visits, True North returns to address the issue at no additional charge.

As a solo-operated business, there's no call center, no hand-off, and no runaround — when you call, you're talking to the person doing the work. If something's not right, I make it right, personally. That's not a policy. It's just how I do business.
