What an exterminator finds in Chelsea
A small town with a very big wild area next to it. Pest control here has to work at that boundary.
Waterloo Recreation Area is 20,000 acres of woodland and wetland right next to town. It is the largest state park in the Lower Peninsula, and everything in it lives close to your fence.
The town itself is small and old, which means older foundations and the gaps that come with them. The boundary between the two is where the work happens.

Every Chelsea visit
The full Honorable TriShield™, every time.
Three overlapping layers at every Chelsea home, from the foundation out to the property line. Not a hurried spray along the baseboards. Two of the three are the layers a cheaper quote is quietly leaving out.

Foundation barrier
Three feet up the wall. Three feet out from it. All the way round the house, plus windows, doors, the garage and the roofline. That strip is the road bugs use to get in.
Measured with a tape, not eyeballed

Granular yard moat
A ring of granules across the lawn. Rain wakes it back up. So does your sprinkler. In a Michigan summer that is most weeks.
Skipped by most companies. Granular costs money.

Property line
We spray the whole property line. Bugs get stopped at the edge of your yard, not at your back door.
