Why farms need a pest plan of their own

Barns and feed rooms give pests everything they want: food, water, bedding and shelter. One spilled bag of grain can feed a family of rats for weeks.

Flies breed in manure and wet bedding and pester horses all summer. Ticks wait in tall grass along fence lines and trails. Mosquitoes breed in water troughs, buckets and low spots after rain.

A farm program deals with all of it on one schedule, so your animals, your staff and your visitors stay comfortable.

Farms we serve:
  • Horse barns and boarding stables
  • Equine centers and riding facilities
  • Feed and hay storage
  • Agritourism farms, like pumpkin patches, orchards, corn mazes and farm event venues

What every farm program includes

  • Fly control for barns, stalls, wash racks and manure areas
  • Rodent control in feed rooms, tack rooms and hay storage, with every bait station mapped
  • Tick control along fence lines, trails and the edges of pastures and guest areas
  • Flea control in barns, kennels and outbuildings
  • Mosquito control around barns, ponds, troughs and guest areas
  • Exterior perimeter protection for barns, sheds and outbuildings
  • Integrated pest management (IPM): sanitation, exclusion and monitoring first, with targeted treatments where needed
  • Written service records after every visit
  • Callbacks between visits at no extra cost, backed by our Whatever It Takes Guarantee

We protect a farm of our own

Our owners live this every day. Their family’s 50-acre farm in Sumner County, Buttercup Farm, is home to cattle, chickens, ducks, lambs, donkeys, two horses, dogs and cats. There’s also an orchard of fruit trees, a vegetable garden, grapevines and honeybees.

Keeping a farm like that healthy takes balance. Pests have to be controlled without putting animals, crops or pollinators at risk. That’s the same care we bring to every barn, stable and farm we serve. When we say we protect what matters most, we know what that means on a farm.

Records and bait station maps

After every visit, you get a written report showing what we serviced, what we found and what we recommend.

In feed rooms and storage areas, we map every bait station, so you and your staff always know where each one is. When activity changes, the map shows where to look.

Ready for visitors

Agritourism farms welcome families, school groups and event guests. We focus on the places they gather: parking areas, walking paths, picnic spots, restrooms and event barns. We schedule service before you open or on days you’re closed, so guests never see us.

Tips for a cleaner barn

  • Store feed in sealed, rodent-proof bins and sweep up spills daily.
  • Clean stalls and move manure away from barns often to cut fly breeding.
  • Dump and refill water buckets and troughs regularly so mosquitoes can’t breed.
  • Keep grass mowed along fence lines and paths to reduce ticks.
