The Near Westside's Commercial Pest Control Specialists
From Methodist and Eskenazi hospital-adjacent clinics and cafeterias to Haughville multifamily, Indiana Avenue cultural-corridor operators, IUPUI-adjacent kitchens, and the social-service shelters along West Michigan — we service the hospital-district pocket west of downtown. Pharaoh ant protocols, discreet bed bug work, and White River rodent exclusion built for how the Near Westside actually operates.
- ✓ Licensed & Insured
- ✓ Marion County Technicians
- ✓ Aprehend® Certified
- ✓ 100% Commercial Focus
We service Methodist, Eskenazi, Indiana Avenue, and Haughville — block by block.
The Near Westside isn't a hospitality strip. It's a hospital district, a historic cultural corridor, and a working-class residential pocket stacked tight against IUPUI. Methodist and Eskenazi anchor a web of outpatient clinics, dialysis centers, behavioral-health offices, and hospital-adjacent food service that all run to a different rhythm than the rest of the commercial metro. Indiana Avenue — the historic Black-business and jazz corridor — carries churches, small kitchens, cultural venues, and neighborhood retail. Haughville and Stringtown walk-up multifamily houses the staff that runs all of it.
ProTech was built for this operating reality. Pharaoh ants are the single biggest pest-control mistake we clean up in Near Westside healthcare — wrong product fragments the colony and makes things dramatically worse. German roaches in hospital cafeteria food service need treatment that works around 24-hour meal operations. Bed bugs walk in with shelter intake at the West Michigan social-service corridor, and Aprehend® lets us treat shelter dorms without taking beds offline. White River and Fall Creek keep rodent pressure active year-round, with fall migration pushing mice through utility penetrations on every older hospital-adjacent building.
We're a small, owner-operated commercial-only team. Your Near Westside clinic, shelter, school, church, or cafeteria gets the same in-house ProTech tech every visit, with notes that carry forward and an owner you can text. No call center, no rotating subs, no upsell scripts.

Every commercial pest service Near Westside operators need.
All commercial — no residential side-jobs. So when a pharaoh ant trail shows up at the clinic reception desk before a morning survey, 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 Near Westside shelters along West Michigan, transitional housing, hospital-adjacent patient-family lodging, and Haughville multifamily — where you can't pull a bed out of service and intake keeps bringing new pressure through the door.
- ✓No dorm or unit evacuation required
- ✓Kills eggs + adult bed bugs
- ✓Protection lasts up to 3 months
- ✓Discreet for residents, clients, and staff
All-pest commercial programs built for hospital-adjacent clinics, shelters, and Haughville multifamily on tight budgets.
View service →Prevention-first programs appropriate for healthcare, schools, and shelters — low-toxicity, documentation-heavy.
View service →White River- and Fall Creek-adjacent rodent programs. Utility-penetration sealing, exterior station maintenance, fall migration prep.
View service →German roach gel baiting in hospital cafeterias and shared-wall multifamily. Coordinated treatment when one unit triggers a cascade.
View service →House fly and fruit fly programs for hospital food service, cafeteria dish rooms, and Indiana Avenue kitchens. Drain source-tracing, not aerosol knockdown.

View service →Older Haughville and Stringtown wood-frame buildings, Indiana Avenue historic churches. Monitoring, soil treatments, and retrofit programs.
View service →Pigeon and starling exclusion for hospital parking decks, clinic awnings, and older industrial-masonry roofs. Spikes, netting, and slope deterrents.
View service →Bats, squirrels, and raccoons in older walk-up commercial buildings and historic churches. Structural exclusion, not relocation.
View service →Indian meal moth and grain beetle programs for food pantry operations, shelter kitchens, and small bakery storage.
View service →Pre-inspection sanitation audits for Marion County Public Health Department, Joint Commission surveys, and state shelter inspections.
View service →Pharaoh ant trails before a clinic survey, bed bug intake at a shelter, roach sightings in cafeteria food service — emergency commercial response.
View service →What Near Westside operators actually face.
Pest pressure for the 46202/46222 hospital-district and Haughville corridor — what we see on service calls, by venue type and by block.
Pharaoh ants are the single biggest product-selection trap on the Near Westside. Repellent sprays scatter the colony, create satellite nests through wall voids, and turn a 20-exam-room clinic into a 6-month problem. Non-repellent gel baits only — and most national chains still get it wrong.
Hospital food service runs 24 hours — infestations spread fast when one dish station skips service. Haughville walk-up multifamily shares mechanical walls and floor drains, so a German roach issue at one unit cascades through the building unless treatment coordinates across stacked tenants.
Shelter intake and hospital patient-family lodging drive consistent bed bug pressure on the Near Westside. Aprehend® is specifically designed for this scenario — biopesticide residue catches bugs that walk into a treated space, which is exactly what intake-driven pressure looks like.
White River and Fall Creek harborage keeps rodents active year-round. Fall indoor migration (Oct–Feb) pushes mice into older hospital-adjacent buildings through utility penetrations, dock seals, and pipe chases. Exterior exclusion matters more than interior baiting.
House flies on hospital trash docks are a sanitation-score risk. Fruit flies in cafeteria produce coolers trace to a single neglected floor sink or drain — source treatment, not interior spray.
Older Near Westside buildings with damp basements see carpenter ants every spring. OHAs dominate smaller commercial footprints. Product selection differs from pharaoh ant work — don't let a generalist pick.
Pigeon loafing on hospital parking decks and clinic HVAC screens drives sanitation and maintenance-cost issues. Exclusion netting and spikes beat sound deterrents long-term, especially around air-intake zones.
Brown marmorated stink bugs and cluster flies accumulate on south/west-facing glass Sep–Nov. Exterior perimeter treatments and window-seal tightening handle it before they get indoors.
The Near Westside pest calendar runs pharaoh-ant-active year-round in the hospital-adjacent clinic corridor, German roach pressure stays constant in Methodist and Eskenazi food service and Haughville multifamily, bed bug intake at shelters runs steadily with no real seasonal dip, and rodent indoor migration peaks October through February as White River and Fall Creek populations push inward. Planning service against that rhythm is how we keep hospital-district operators ahead of surveys — not chasing fixes after a score drops.
What Near Westside 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 pharaoh ant baits, shelter intake protocols, and hospital cafeteria treatment are built for Near Westside operators, not homeowners.
Healthcare-Literate Techs
We know the difference between a repellent and a non-repellent bait, why that distinction destroys a pharaoh ant program, and what Joint Commission and Indiana State Department of Health surveyors actually look at. Most chains send techs who've never worked a clinic before.
Aprehend® Bed Bug Specialist
We carry one of the few active Aprehend® certifications in the Indy metro. For Near Westside shelters, transitional housing, and hospital family-stay suites that need discreet bed bug elimination without beds going offline, this matters.

Every service generates the documentation Marion County Public Health Department inspectors actually want to see. Pull it up in two clicks the moment you're scored.
No Subcontractors
Every Near Westside 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 commercial pest management looks like.

Commercial operators across the hospital district.
We'd had a pharaoh ant issue at our outpatient clinic for almost a year — the previous company kept spraying the exam rooms and the problem kept spreading. ProTech walked in, switched to a non-repellent bait program, and had the colony cleared in six weeks. Night-and-day difference.
Shelter intake brought in bed bugs right before a capacity spike. ProTech ran Aprehend® across the affected dorms overnight and we never had to pull a bed out of service. For our operation, that's the entire ball game.
Our hospital cafeteria had a German roach issue the previous vendor couldn't get on top of because they were only servicing during daytime hours. ProTech worked around our 24-hour meal service, got the cascade under control across three prep stations, and our next sanitation score came back clean.
