Martindale-Brightwood's Industrial Pest Control Specialists

- ✓ Aprehend® Certified
- ✓ 100% Commercial Focus
We service the dock, the line, and the yard — facility by facility.
Martindale-Brightwood is one of the most industrial neighborhoods in Marion County. The 25th & Sherman corridor and the stretch along Massachusetts Avenue east of downtown pack manufacturing plants, distribution warehouses, food processing operations, scrap metal and recycling yards, and light-industrial job shops into tight city blocks. The Monon rail spine runs right through it, with rail-side warehouses that take product by rail car and truck. Add in a ring of walk-up multifamily, the social-service organizations that serve the residential pockets, and a scatter of churches and small retail, and you have a commercial mix that generalist pest companies simply aren't built for.
ProTech was built for industrial pest management specifically. We run dock-door rodent programs on manufacturing and distribution accounts where any sighting on an audit can pull product. We handle stored-product pest IPM in food processing — Indian meal moth, grain beetle, and warehouse beetle monitoring with pheromone traps and source-product identification. We treat German roach pressure in industrial breakrooms where the old pest company has been chasing knockdown for years. We do rooftop pigeon exclusion on the flat-roof warehouse stretch. We source-treat fly issues at food processing and meat operations where aerosol knockdown is useless. And we carry the documentation industrial auditors — FDA, AIB, SQF, BRC — actually want to see.
We're a small, owner-operated commercial-only team. Your Martindale-Brightwood plant, warehouse, or industrial facility gets the same in-house ProTech tech every visit, with facility notes that carry forward and an owner you can text. No call center, no rotating subcontractors, no regional manager three states away.
Built around the neighborhood's actual industrial mix.
Manufacturing. Warehouse & distribution. Food processing. Scrap and recycling. Light industrial. Social services. The verticals that define Martindale-Brightwood are the verticals we built ProTech around.
25th & Sherman, Mass Ave East, and Monon-adjacent manufacturers. IPM built for production lines, mechanical rooms, and audit-ready food and non-food facilities.
Monon rail-side warehouses, Mass Ave distribution, Sherman Drive cross-docks. Loading-dock rodent programs, pallet-level stored-product monitoring, and FDA/AIB-ready documentation.
Meat, bakery, snack, beverage, and co-packers scattered through the industrial corridor. Stored-product pest IPM, fly source-tracing, and SQF/BRC-ready program structure.
Scrap yards and recyclers along the Monon and Sherman corridor. Exterior rodent programs built for open-yard harborage, dumpster pressure, and rooftop bird issues.
Machine shops, fabricators, distributors, and service trades in the Mass Ave east industrial fabric. IPM sized for single-building operators without a full facilities team.
Community health, food-pantry, and shelter operators in the residential pockets. Aprehend® bed bug treatment, low-toxicity IPM, and resident-safe scheduling.
Historic churches, community centers, and nonprofit-occupied buildings. Treatment that works around event calendars and older-building structural realities.
Walk-up multifamily wrapping the industrial corridor. German roach control, Aprehend® bed bug treatment, and building-wide rodent exclusion.
We service every commercial and industrial vertical in 46218 and the Monon-corridor industrial fabric — cold storage, industrial laundries, auto body, print shops, paper processors, and specialty manufacturers. If you operate a commercial or industrial address in the neighborhood, we can help.
Every commercial pest service Martindale-Brightwood operators need.
All commercial — no residential side-jobs. So when your audit is on Monday and you find rodent droppings on a grain pallet, or a production-line supervisor reports flies at the meat station, you reach a real commercial tech, not an answering service.
Commercial Bed Bug Treatment with Aprehend®
Aprehend® is an EPA-registered biopesticide that eliminates bed bugs and their eggs without the prep, evacuation, or heat treatment traditional methods require. Critical for Martindale-Brightwood social-service operators, shelters, and walk-up multifamily — where residents can't be displaced for 48 hours and furniture removal isn't an option.
- ✓No room evacuation required
- ✓Kills eggs + adult bed bugs
- ✓Protection lasts up to 3 months
- ✓Discreet for residents, clients, and staff

Pest pressure specific to the Martindale-Brightwood industrial corridor — what we see on service calls, by facility type.
Dock doors, trailer gaps, rail-side harborage, and scrap-yard voids make Martindale-Brightwood one of the highest-pressure rodent corridors in the county. Exterior station programs paired with dock-sweep inspection are non-negotiable.
Indian meal moth, sawtoothed grain beetle, warehouse beetle, and cigarette beetle pressure runs year-round in the food-processing fabric. Pheromone monitoring catches infestations at pallet level — before they're in finished goods.
Older industrial breakrooms with microwave stations, vending, and shared lockers are a persistent German roach trap. Gel baiting and IGR programs — not broadcast spray — clear the colony.
Blow flies at meat and food processing operations trace to dock-area dumpsters, drain biofilm, and exterior decomposition sources. Source elimination and ILT (insect light trap) placement beat aerosol every time.
Flat-roof warehouses and scrap yards are prime nesting and loafing sites. Guano drives OSHA, EPA stormwater, and HVAC damage issues. Exclusion work — netting and spikes — is the only permanent answer.
Drain fly biofilm in floor drains, mop sinks, and restroom lines is a constant low-grade issue. Brush-and-foam treatment on the actual breeding source clears it — aerosol on adults doesn't.
Social-service and shelter operators in the neighborhood face constant bed bug reintroduction. Aprehend® lets us treat without displacing clients or residents.
Raccoons in dumpster corrals, opossums at scrap piles, bats in older industrial attic voids. Structural exclusion only.
Martindale-Brightwood's pest calendar runs rodent-heavy year-round with a peak October through February as populations push indoors off dock doors and rail-side harborage, stored-product pest activity in food processing runs strongest May through September with pheromone trap catches climbing in late summer, blow-fly pressure at meat and food operations spikes June through August, bed bug pressure at shelters and social services stays steady year-round, and rooftop bird nesting peaks March through July. Planning service against that rhythm is how we keep industrial operators ahead of audits — not scrambling before them.
What Martindale-Brightwood operators get with us — and don't get with national chains.
100% Commercial
No residential side-jobs. Every hour of our week is commercial and industrial pest management — so the judgment calls on production lines, grain receiving, dock doors, and shared industrial plumbing are built for Martindale-Brightwood operators, not homeowners.
Audit-Ready Industrial Documentation
Every service generates the documentation FDA, AIB, SQF, and BRC auditors actually want to see. Pest logs, trend charts, conducive-condition corrective actions, and pesticide use records — pulled up in two clicks the day your auditor walks in.
Aprehend® Bed Bug Specialist
We carry one of the few active Aprehend® certifications in the Indy metro. For Martindale-Brightwood shelters, social-service providers, and walk-up multifamily that need discreet bed bug elimination without displacing residents, this matters.
Dock, Rail & Scrap Yard Expertise
We know what rodent pressure looks like on a distribution dock vs. a manufacturing plant vs. an open scrap yard. Exterior station placement, dock-sweep specification, and rail-side harborage treatment are core to every account.
No Subcontractors
Every service call is handled by an in-house ProTech technician. Same face, same notes, same accountability. No regional manager three states away with a rotating sub roster.
No Forced Contracts
We earn the account every month. You can cancel. We just think you won't — because you'll see what real industrial pest management looks like.
How we protect your Martindale-Brightwood facility.
On-Site Inspection
We walk your facility — dock doors, trailer gaps, dumpster corrals, rail-side perimeter, production lines, grain receiving, breakrooms, locker rooms, rooftop HVAC. Map conducive conditions specific to your Martindale-Brightwood operation.
Custom Pest Plan
Treatment selection, service frequency, and audit documentation structure built around your facility type — food-grade, non-food, warehouse, scrap, shelter — and the specific audit framework you answer to.
Targeted Treatment
Low-toxicity, targeted products in the right places — pheromone monitors in grain receiving, gel in a breakroom crack, dock-sweeps replaced where rodent gaps exist. Scheduled around your production windows.
Monitoring & Reporting
Ongoing monitoring stations, pheromone-trap catch logging, every-visit documentation, trend tracking, and audit-ready reports. You always know what we did and why — and so do your auditors.
Commercial and industrial operators across the corridor.
We run a food-packaging facility and our previous pest company was generating reports that wouldn't survive an AIB audit. ProTech rebuilt our program from the ground up, put pheromone monitors in grain receiving, and our last two audits scored higher than they ever have.
Scrap yard rodents were a losing battle with the old company — just exterior stations that nobody maintained. ProTech mapped the yard harborage, resized the station network, and added perimeter monthly walks. Rodent pressure dropped 80% in a quarter.
Our shelter was hit with recurring bed bug complaints and the last pest company wanted to do heat treatment — which meant displacing clients. ProTech ran Aprehend® across the resident areas overnight and the complaints stopped. No displacement, no outcry, just results.
