Why Equipment Matters: Safe Access for Pest Control Treatments

|

The Height Factor You Don’t See

When you call for pest control, you expect every area of your home to be protected. But did you know not every company can safely reach those upper eaves or second-story windows?

Most standard pest control poles safely reach 20–25 feet, which covers many single-story homes and some two-story areas. But for larger homes, roof peaks, or tall gables that exceed that range, special equipment is needed to safely and effectively complete treatment.


Why Height and Safety Go Hand-in-Hand

Trying to stretch beyond equipment limits isn’t just unsafe, it’s ineffective. Overreaching can reduce product accuracy, miss critical nesting areas, and put both technicians and your property at risk.

At Paragon Pest Control, we use specialized extension equipment and ladders designed for steep or elevated access points. This ensures:

  • Complete coverage for higher eaves, soffits, and rooflines

  • Safe, stable operation during treatments

  • Proper barrier placement where pests nest and enter


What That Means for Your Home

If you own a multi-story home or one with complex architecture (like steep roof pitches or tall entryways), these areas can easily become hotspots for spider webs, wasp nests, and rodent entry points. Proper tools and access make all the difference in keeping these areas pest-free year-round.

During your inspection, your Paragon technician evaluates these areas and determines whether specialized access is needed so nothing is left untreated.
