Level 1
Early activity
A few sightings, usually in one room or one area. Caught early, this is the fastest and least expensive fix.

German cockroaches
Clean-outs for the bad ones. Commercial and residential.
Rats & mice

Why SSG
Big-company training. Owner-operator accountability.
Most roach problems that "won't go away" weren't treated wrong. They were treated fast. A tech with 20 stops sprays the baseboards, leaves a ticket and never sees the account again.
At SSG, Ian Terry inspects, treats and follows up on every account himself. He's run branches, launched one from zero to thousands of customers, and trained the techs who do this every day. Now that experience goes to one account at a time. Yours.

Specialty · German cockroaches
Bad roach places are the job, not the exception.
German roaches breed fast, hide deep, and learn to avoid the products that were used on them before. Getting rid of a real infestation takes inspection, the right placements, a growth regulator, rotation and follow-up. Skip any one of those and they come back.
Where we work
- Restaurants, bars and commercial kitchens
- Food trucks, commissaries and convenience stores
- Apartments, duplexes and multifamily buildings
- Rental turns and properties between tenants
- Homes where store-bought sprays made it worse
- Group homes, assisted living and shared housing
- STEP 1
Inspect & count
Sticky monitors and a flashlight inspection map where they live, how many there are and how far it has spread. That count is the baseline every follow-up gets measured against.
- STEP 2
Knock down the source
Harborage clean-out where it's needed, then targeted gel bait placements in the cracks, hinges, motors and voids roaches actually use, not a broadcast spray that scatters them.
- STEP 3
Break the cycle
An insect growth regulator on every clean-out so the eggs already laid can't grow into the next wave. Dust goes into wall voids and dead spaces bait can't reach.
- STEP 4
Rotate & follow up
Return visits on a set schedule. Monitors get re-counted, bait classes get rotated to beat resistance, and we keep coming back until the counts say the job is done.
Commercial accounts
Built for kitchens that can't afford a bad inspection.
- Service report every visit: findings, counts, materials and corrective actions.
- After-hours service: before open or after close, so you don't lose a shift.
- Clean-out, then monthly: knock it down first, then keep it there.
- Property managers: unit turns, adjacent-unit inspections and building-wide plans.
Rodent exclusion & control
Seal it. Clear it. Confirm it.
Trapping without exclusion is a subscription to more rats. A mouse fits through a gap the size of a dime. The fix is finding every way in, closing it with material they can't chew through, then removing what's already inside.
Signs it's time to call
- Scratching in the attic or walls at night
- Droppings in the pantry, garage or under sinks
- Chewed wires, food packaging or AC insulation
- Rub marks along walls or the roofline
- STEP 1
Full-structure inspection
Rooflines, soffits, gable vents, AC and plumbing penetrations, garage door seals, weep holes, attic and crawlspace. Every gap a rodent can use gets found and photographed.
- STEP 2
Exclusion
Entry points sealed with brass and copper mesh, hardware cloth, sealant and door sweeps. Materials rodents can't chew through, installed to last.
- STEP 3
Remove what's inside
Trapping inside the structure, plus tamper-resistant exterior stations where they make sense, so you're not left with what's already in the attic.
- STEP 4
Check & confirm
Follow-up trap checks until activity stops, plus a walk-through of sanitation and storage fixes that keep them from coming back.
Pricing
Priced by severity, after a real inspection.
No one-size price, because no two infestations are the same size. Your quote is based on how bad it is, the size of the property and access. You get it in writing before any work starts.
Level 2
Established
Daytime sightings, droppings, egg cases or gnaw marks in more than one area. A multi-visit program with set follow-ups.
Level 3
Severe
Heavy infestation, multiple units, or a commercial kitchen under pressure. Intensive clean-out, extra visits and close monitoring. This is our specialty.

Questions
Straight answers.
+Why won't you give me a price over the phone?
Because a few roaches under one sink and a kitchen that's been fighting them for a year are completely different jobs. A quote without an inspection is a guess, and guesses turn into callbacks. Inspect first, then a written price based on what's actually there.
+Who actually shows up?
Ian Terry, the certified operator. SSG is owner-operated right now, so the person who inspects your property is the person who treats it and comes back to follow up. No rotating techs, no trainee on your account.
+Do I have to prepare or leave?
For most roach work, no. You'll get a short prep list for the specific job, like clearing under sinks or bagging pantry food in heavy cases. Bait-based treatment usually means you don't have to leave the house.
+Is it safe for kids and pets?
Treatments are placed into cracks, voids and stations rather than sprayed across open surfaces, and every product is applied by its label. If you have specific concerns, tell us at the inspection and the plan accounts for it.
+Can you handle my restaurant's health inspections?
Yes. Commercial accounts get a written service report every visit with findings, activity counts, materials used and corrective recommendations. That's the paperwork inspectors and corporate auditors want to see. After-hours service is available so you don't lose a shift.
+How long until they're gone?
It depends on severity, sanitation and access, and anyone who promises a date without seeing the place is selling. What we promise: a plan based on real counts, follow-ups on schedule, and we keep working the account until the numbers say it's done.
+Do you do termites, lawn or mosquitoes?
Not right now. SSG is certified in General Household Pest and Rodent Control, and that's where we focus: roaches and rodents. We'll gladly point you to someone good for the rest.
