The Near Eastside's Commercial Pest Control Specialists
From the 10th Street restaurant and brewery corridor to the Englewood Tech hub at 10th & Rural, the Eskenazi-affiliated healthcare clinics, charter schools, social service agencies, and light-industrial blocks — Near Eastside commercial operators face pest pressure from two parks (Brookside and Pogue's Run) and a mix of old building stock that demands real expertise.
- ✓ Licensed & Insured
- ✓ Marion County Technicians
- ✓ Aprehend® Certified
- ✓ 100% Commercial Focus
We service the 10th Street corridor, the Englewood Tech area, and the park edges.
The Near Eastside runs on an unusually dense mix of institutional, community, and commercial operators. The 10th Street corridor carries restaurants, breweries, and specialty retail from Rural east. The Englewood Tech hub at 10th & Rural anchors a growing technology and coworking commercial pocket. The Englewood Christian Church campus, charter schools, and Eskenazi-affiliated outpatient clinics provide institutional weight. Social-service agencies and food-security programs wrap the community layer. And Brookside Park and Pogue's Run — two waterway-adjacent greenspaces — create year-round rodent pressure pushing into every adjacent block.
ProTech was built for this exact combination. We handle pharaoh ant protocols at Near Eastside healthcare clinics and charter schools where repellent products would fragment colonies and make a small problem into a building-wide one. We run German roach programs in school cafeterias where sensitivity to child-facing treatment is non-negotiable. We do Aprehend® bed bug response at social-service shelters, drain fly and fruit fly source work at the 10th Street restaurant and brewery cluster, rodent exclusion on the park-edge buildings that feel the Brookside and Pogue's Run populations every fall, and dumpster-corral fly programs at school and cafeteria loading areas. Non-repellent-first is the default here — not an upsell.
We're an owner-operated, commercial-only team. Your Near Eastside clinic, school, restaurant, brewery, shelter, or light-industrial operation gets the same in-house ProTech technician every visit. Notes carry forward, documentation works for state licensing and accreditation, and an owner is reachable by text. No call center, no rotating subs, no upsell scripts.
Built around the corridor's actual commercial mix.
Charter schools. Healthcare clinics. Social service agencies. 10th Street restaurants and breweries. Churches. Light industrial. The verticals that define the Near Eastside are the ones we've built ProTech around.

10th Street dining, the Englewood Tech-area brewery and taproom operators, specialty coffee. German roach control, drain fly source work, and fruit fly programs built for brewery and tech-hub commercial density.
Englewood Christian Church campus, neighborhood churches, and fellowship halls. Preventive programs sized for community-facing operators with realistic budgets.
Near Eastside light-industrial pockets, small-warehouse operators, and distribution spaces along the 10th Street and industrial-zoning edges. Rodent exclusion and dock-area fly programs.
Englewood Tech hub coworking, tech startups, and professional-services offices. Discreet monthly programs that run around coworking hours and member-facing spaces.
Near Eastside mixed-use portfolios, institutional property managers, and small-multifamily operators. Coordinated common-area and tenant-space programs with portfolio-level reporting.
We service every commercial vertical in the corridor — daycares, preschools, urgent-care clinics, food-pantry operations, thrift stores, event spaces, and small-batch food producers. If you operate a commercial address in the 46201 area, we can help.
Every commercial pest service Near Eastside operators need.
All commercial — no residential side-jobs. So when pharaoh ants show up in a clinic exam room or roaches hit a school cafeteria on a Monday morning, you reach a real commercial tech who knows the non-repellent protocol.
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 Near Eastside social-service shelters, transitional housing, and healthcare settings where bed bug introductions happen through patient intake and resident turnover — and where traditional treatment disruption isn't realistic.
- ✓No room evacuation required
- ✓Kills eggs + adult bed bugs
- ✓Protection lasts up to 3 months
- ✓Safe for shelter residents and clinical environments

View service →What Near Eastside operators actually face.
Pest pressure on the 10th Street corridor and the Englewood Tech area — what we see on service calls, by venue type and by block.
Pharaoh ants are the most technically demanding ant pressure on the Near Eastside — they form supercolonies with multiple queens, and any repellent product fragments the colony into multiple budding satellites that make the problem dramatically worse. Non-repellent bait matrix (not spray) is the only correct response, and most national operators get this wrong. Healthcare and school environments require the specialty protocol.
German roach cascades in school cafeterias — where a single infestation can move through the kitchen, serving line, and cafeteria dining space in weeks — require child-safe gel bait protocols, not broadcast spray. 10th Street restaurant operators face the same shared-wall cascade risk as any dense commercial strip.
Brookside Park and Pogue's Run keep permanent rodent harborage active year-round. Every fall (late September through November), populations push indoors through utility penetrations on every park-edge commercial building. School, clinic, and restaurant operators on the corridor feel it first — and exclusion is the only long-term fix.
Bed bug pressure in Near Eastside shelters and transitional housing is steady — resident turnover, vulnerable populations, and patient-intake transfers in clinical settings. Aprehend® keeps beds and exam rooms in service without the resident-prep or facility-disruption that traditional treatment requires.
House fly and blow fly pressure at school and institutional dumpster corrals drives parent complaints, inspector flags, and regulatory attention. Bait stations, corral hygiene, and scheduled exterior treatment — combined with sanitation protocol buy-in — are what actually solves it.
Drain fly biofilm in restaurant and cafeteria drains is the #1 fly source call we get from the 10th Street corridor. Fruit flies hit brewery and specialty-coffee operators during fermentation-heavy weeks. Source treatment, not adult-fly spray.
OHAs and pavement ants hit the older Near Eastside building stock. Non-repellent bait, right formulation — and never the repellent broadcast product that fragments colonies.
Older Near Eastside wood-frame and mixed-construction buildings with moisture-compromised areas drive carpenter ant and termite pressure. Structural inspection before product.
Near Eastside's pest calendar runs pharaoh ant pressure steady year-round in healthcare and institutional facilities, German roach activity climbing in school cafeterias during full-session weeks (September–May), rodent pressure from Brookside Park and Pogue's Run spiking October through February, trash-corral fly activity through school-session summer weeks and after community events, and bed bug calls from shelters steady year-round. Planning service against that rhythm — and building protocols that healthcare and school accreditation actually accept — is how we keep Near Eastside operators ahead of issues.
What Near Eastside operators get with us — and don't get with national chains.
100% Commercial
No residential side-jobs. Every hour of our week is commercial pest management — so the judgment calls on clinic pharaoh ants, school cafeteria roaches, shelter bed bugs, and park-edge rodent pressure are built for Near Eastside operators.
Non-Repellent Protocol Specialists
Pharaoh ants and OHAs are both supercolony-forming species where repellent products make the problem worse. Most national chains default to repellent sprays because their techs aren't trained otherwise. Non-repellent bait matrix is the default on every Near Eastside clinic, school, and institutional account.
Aprehend® Bed Bug Specialist
We carry one of the few active Aprehend® certifications in the Indy metro. For Near Eastside shelters, transitional housing, and clinical settings that need bed bug elimination without bed or exam-room downtime, this matters.
Healthcare & School Compliance
Every service generates documentation that works for Joint Commission, state-licensure, charter-school accreditation, and Marion County Public Health Department inspections. Pull it up in two clicks the moment you're scored or audited.
No Subcontractors
Every Near Eastside service call is handled by an in-house ProTech technician. Same face, same notes, same accountability. No rotating sub roster, no pass-through labor, no sub without the pharaoh ant training.
No Forced Contracts
We earn the account every month. You can cancel. We just think you won't — because you'll see what real commercial pest management looks like, documented properly.
How we protect your Near Eastside business.
On-Site Inspection
We walk your space — cafeteria lines, exam rooms, intake areas, restaurant prep, brewery tank lines, dumpster corrals, park-edge envelope, and mechanical penetrations. Map conducive conditions specific to your Near Eastside facility.
Custom Pest Plan
Treatment selection, service frequency, and reporting format built around your facility type, accreditation standards, operating hours, and the specific pressure your Near Eastside address actually faces.
Targeted Treatment
Non-repellent-first product choices, low-toxicity application, and targeted placement in voids and cracks — never broadcast spray in clinical, educational, or child-facing spaces. Scheduled around patient flow, class schedule, or service hours.
Monitoring & Reporting
Ongoing monitoring stations, every-visit documentation, trend tracking, and reports formatted for Joint Commission, state-licensing, charter-school, grant compliance, and Marion County Health Department. You always know what we did and why.
Commercial operators across the corridor.
Our clinic had a pharaoh ant problem that the previous pest company was actively making worse — they kept spraying and the colonies just split and spread. ProTech came in, switched us to non-repellent bait matrix, and in six weeks the colony was cleared. That was over a year ago, and we haven't had a return.
Our school cafeteria had roaches show up on a Monday before breakfast service. ProTech was on-site within the hour, ran gel bait treatment in the voids with child-safe product, documented everything for our state licensing file, and the issue cleared in two weeks. Previous company would have broadcast sprayed the whole kitchen — not acceptable in a school.
We run a social-service program and bed bugs were a constant problem — staff prep, resident displacement, beds offline for days. Aprehend® through ProTech means we treat a room in an hour, the resident stays, and the program keeps running. Documentation is exactly what our grant compliance needs.
