Keeping pests under control in a hospital or medical facility can go a long way to helping keep secondary infections at bay.
Nature’s Way Pest Control can help keep pests such as bedbugs, mice, ticks, spiders, stinkbugs, and more from infesting such medical facilities as Nursing Homes, Hospitals, Doctors’ and Dentists’ Offices, Walk-in Medical Clinics, Pharmacies/Drug Stores or specialty Healthcare Offices.
Vermin, bedbugs, flies, roaches, and other pests can enter a healthcare facility easily (the food of the kitchen and cafeteria and the warmth of the patients’ beds are a great attraction) and can be hard to keep at bay once they’ve arrived. They can thrive quickly and can become a critical threat to patients and personnel. The risk of cross-contamination is high.
Bedbugs in particular have infested buildings across the U.S., including hospitals. For example, United Medical Center in Washington, DC in 2011 hired a commercial pest control service to battle an infestation of bedbugs. Healthcare administrators and personnel are particularly worried about bedbugs because the pests could carry the potentially deadly methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), also known as Staph.
The types of pesticides that can obliterate insects and other pests can be harmful to humans. That’s why Nature’s Way offers eco-friendly pest control options for medical facilities (as well as for businesses and residences).
We use EcoSMART’s patented botanical products to rid buildings of pests. These are derived from the essential oils excreted by plants and trees to protect themselves from insects and pathogens. EcoSMART has developed combinations of highly effective insecticidal plant oils that give us botanical-based alternatives to conventional pesticides. These products work!
We start with a detailed investigation of where insects and vermin may be entering your facility. We then work to seal the facility against where the invaders are entering in order to create a pest-free zone.
Once we’ve sealed the pest entrances, we then work with facility management to remove the spots where pests hide and create nests. We also work with the hospital’s management/staff to help them learn about areas that can be particularly prone to pest infestation – and how to prevent it in the future.
Once we’ve treated the facility, we also recommend that we inspect the facility regularly, in order to catch and end new infestations.
Here at Nature’s Way Pest Control, we’re sensitive to the special needs healthcare facilities have. We train our technicians to maintain the highest of standards in hygiene in order to prevent cross-contamination and they’re highly sensitive to the impact pest control can have on a hospital’s or clinic’s public area.
We work to build a protective “wall” around the outside of your facility and respond to any signs of activity quickly and efficiently.

Dustin is very knowledgeable: Everything he has recommended has been right on the mark! He is also pleasant and respectful when around our home. We have used NWPC to keep the hornets and other insects in the woods and away from the home. The service works great and isn’t toxic which is so important to us and the other natural life around the area. We also had an issue with mice in one spot and after Dustin worked his magic for only a few months, they were gone and did not come back. If you need any pest control at all, NWPC, especially Dustin, are the people to call!
