Pest Control Program
Maplewood Condominium Association has a comprehensive condo-wide pest prevention and eradication program. This plan includes exterior applications for the control of general pests, carpenter ants, and termites, as well as interior applications for the control of general pests, carpenter ants, rodents, and termites. Every unit is covered completely under this plan (inside/outside) for any type of pest and without limit or additional cost. When selling your condo unit, pest inspection reports for termites and carpenter ants are up to date and treatment is covered if termites, or otherwise, are discovered.
The Association schedules two (2) annual exterior sprayings to control for pests. Thereafter, the sprayings are on an as needed basis, without limit or additional cost, and can be targeted for specific outbreaks. The Association also schedules one (1) interior baseboard application, and at such time, inspections for termites and rodents are also accomplished. Every unit is furthermore covered for any type of interior outbreak or infestation with regards to treatment and eradication. Owner participation and cooperation of this program is mandatory, otherwise it cannot be effective at controlling and eradicating pests that cause infestations, disease, and structural damage.
