Built For the Wholesale District

We service the Stutz, Union Station, and Pan Am — building by building.

The Wholesale District carries a commercial mix nothing else in Indianapolis matches. The Stutz Building houses creative agencies, artists, event space, and ground-floor retail under one historic roof. Union Station pulls in weddings, corporate events, and conferences week-round. The Westin, Crowne Plaza Union Station, and Hyatt Regency feed off the Convention Center next door. Pan Am Plaza and the blocks running toward Lucas Oil Stadium carry hotels, corporate offices, and restaurants built around convention, NCAA, and Colts foot traffic. Downtown loft conversions in pre-WWI freight warehouses fill in between them with residents and short-term rentals.

ProTech was built for exactly this kind of historic-core density. We schedule hotel room treatments during low-occupancy windows keyed to the Convention Center booking calendar, run Aprehend® bed bug protocols across lofts and hotel inventory, manage the rodent pressure that still moves through freight-era basement infrastructure, and handle fly and roach programs for the kitchens feeding everyone between the Circle and the Stadium. National chains can't coordinate at that level — we plan our week around conventions, games, and Union Station weddings.

We're a small, owner-operated commercial-only team. Your Wholesale District hotel, restaurant, event venue, creative office, or downtown loft portfolio gets the same in-house ProTech tech every visit, with building notes that carry forward and an owner you can text. No call center, no rotating subcontractors, no upsell scripts.

Commercial Services

Every commercial pest service Wholesale District operators need.

All commercial — no residential side-jobs. So when a wedding at Union Station hits a fly issue Saturday afternoon or a hotel housekeeper finds bed bug evidence on convention Friday, you reach an actual commercial tech, not an answering service.

Pest Pressures in the Wholesale District

What Wholesale District operators actually face.

Pest pressure for the historic core between the Circle and Lucas Oil — what we see on service calls, by building type and by block.

Bed Bugs
High
Convention hotels, downtown lofts, STR inventory

Convention-cycle turnover at the Westin, Crowne Plaza Union Station, Hyatt Regency, and Le Meridien drives constant bed bug pressure. Loft and STR inventory across the corridor adds residential-turnover pressure on top. Aprehend® keeps rooms and units in service during treatment.

Norway Rats & House Mice
High
Freight-era basements, alley dumpsters, Union Station infrastructure

The Wholesale District's pre-1920s freight-warehouse basements and old rail-era building stock carry rodent pathways that don't exist in newer construction. Fall pressure (Oct–Feb) drives mice into every historic building with unsealed foundation penetrations or utility gaps.

German Cockroaches
High
Convention-catering kitchens, event-venue prep, stadium-adjacent restaurants

Convention-volume and event-catering kitchen surges drive German roach pressure across Union Station, Pan Am Plaza, and the convention-hotel restaurant row. Historic building shared walls and antiquated plumbing amplify the problem.

Drain Flies & Fruit Flies
High
Event venue bars, hotel lobby bars, convention-adjacent restaurants

Drain fly biofilm in high-volume event-venue wellpipes is a constant Wholesale District problem — Union Station's wedding season and Pan Am's event run-up are peak pressure windows. We brush-and-foam the actual breeding source, not the adults.

Pigeons & Starlings
High
Stutz Building ledges, Union Station canopy, Pan Am awnings

Historic building cornices, statue alcoves, and canopy undersides are peak pigeon loafing habitat. Union Station in particular carries constant pressure on the canopy and entry-arch structures. Exclusion beats sound deterrents every time.

Carpenter Ants & Termites
Medium
Pre-WWI warehouse conversions, historic office buildings

Wholesale District historic buildings with wood-frame second floors, loft conversions, and moisture-compromised basements drive carpenter ant and subterranean termite pressure. Structural inspection matters more than surface treatment.

Pharaoh Ants
Medium
Historic hotels, creative offices, event venue kitchens

Pharaoh ants in older Wholesale District hotels and event-venue back-of-house require non-repellent baits. Wrong product fragments colonies and makes things worse — a common call we clean up from national chains.

Stored Product Pests
Seasonal
Event catering dry storage, hotel banquet back-of-house

Indian meal moth, sawtoothed grain beetles, and cigarette beetles in event-catering and hotel banquet dry storage. Historic building-stock storage areas with inconsistent humidity control amplify the problem.

Wholesale District Pest Calendar

The Wholesale District's pest calendar runs bed bug-heavy April through November with convention and wedding-season cycles, rodent indoor pressure peaks October through February as populations push into freight-era basements, German roach pressure stays year-round in the convention-catering and event-venue kitchens, and pigeon pressure on the Stutz, Union Station, and Pan Am historic structures is a permanent exclusion problem rather than a seasonal one. Planning service against that rhythm is how we keep historic-core operators ahead of issues — not reacting to them.

Why ProTech

What Wholesale District operators get with us — and don't get with national chains.

01

100% Commercial

No residential side-jobs. Every hour of our week is commercial pest management — so the judgment calls on freight-era basements, historic cornice exclusion, and convention-catering kitchens are built for Wholesale District operators, not homeowners.

02

Convention & Event-Calendar Timed

We plan service around the Convention Center booking calendar, Union Station event bookings, Lucas Oil home games, and Pan Am Plaza activations. Hotel and event-venue treatment happens when it actually won't hit operations — not on a generic route day.

03

Aprehend® Bed Bug Specialist

We carry one of the few active Aprehend® certifications in the Indy metro. For convention-adjacent hotels and downtown loft portfolios that need discreet bed bug elimination without room or unit downtime, this matters.

04

Historic Building Expertise

Pre-WWI freight warehouses and pre-1920s office stock don't behave like newer construction — foundation gaps, unsealed rail-era basement penetrations, cornice and masonry bird-harborage, and antiquated plumbing all need specific treatment strategies. We know the Wholesale District building stock.

05

Marion County Health Dept-Ready

Every service generates the documentation Marion County Public Health Department inspectors actually want to see. Pull it up in two clicks when they walk into Union Station, the Westin, Crowne Plaza, or any Pan Am Plaza kitchen.

06

No Subcontractors

Every Wholesale District service call is handled by an in-house ProTech technician. Same face, same building notes, same accountability. No regional manager three states away rotating through a sub roster.

Our Process

How we protect your Wholesale District business.

01

On-Site Inspection

We walk your building — historic basements, freight-era utility chases, kitchen lines, banquet prep, event bar wells, rooftop cornice and bird-harborage points, alley dumpster corrals, loading docks. Map conducive conditions specific to your Wholesale District address.

02

Custom Pest Plan

Treatment selection, service frequency, and reporting format built around your convention calendar, Union Station event schedule, Lucas Oil game cycle, or corporate audit schedule — not a generic route sheet.

03

Targeted Treatment

Low-toxicity, targeted products in the right places — never fogged across open hotel lobbies, event floors, or restaurant dining. Scheduled around your operating reality.

04

Monitoring & Reporting

Ongoing monitoring stations, every-visit documentation, trend tracking, and audit-ready reports for Marion County Public Health, brand compliance, event-venue operations, and ownership groups.

What Wholesale District Operators Say

Commercial operators across the historic core.

★★★★★
Our wedding venue had a drain fly issue that escalated the week of a 300-person event. ProTech was on-site within hours, traced it to a back-of-house bar drain the previous vendor had never inspected, and the event went through clean. They now handle our entire pre-event pest audit cycle.
Operations Director
Union Station Event Venue
★★★★★
We run converted-warehouse lofts across the corridor and bed bug incidents used to cost us 3-4 nights of lost revenue per unit. Aprehend® through ProTech drops that to effectively zero downtime. The math is obvious.
Portfolio Manager
Wholesale District Loft Operator
★★★★★
Our convention-hotel property had a long-running pigeon problem on the south-facing cornice that was driving sanitation complaints at the restaurant patio below. ProTech scoped exclusion the first walkthrough and the complaints stopped within six weeks. Previous vendor had been 'working on it' for two years.

Frequently Asked

Commercial pest questions — Wholesale District edition.

Do you coordinate service with Convention Center and Union Station event schedules?
Yes — that's core to how we run Wholesale District accounts. We track the ICC booking calendar, Union Station event bookings, Lucas Oil home games, and Pan Am Plaza activation schedule. Hotel floor work happens between convention groups. Event-venue kitchen and bar service lands between a Saturday wedding close and a Sunday brunch. Convention-hotel restaurant service times to the dead hour between conference breakfast and the 11am shift change. A national chain running a fixed route-day regardless of what's happening downtown will put your team in a bad spot — we plan around what the block is actually doing.
Why does building age matter so much in the Wholesale District for rodent control?
The Wholesale District is built predominantly on pre-1920s freight-warehouse and rail-era building stock. Those buildings were built for freight, not for rodent exclusion — unsealed utility chases, basement-to-grade daylight gaps, mortar-degraded foundations, and abandoned rail-era penetrations are common. Our rodent programs for historic buildings focus heavily on mapping and sealing those structural pathways rather than just running interior stations. We document exclusion work visit-over-visit so ownership can track actual structural progress, not bait-consumption statistics. Interior baiting is a backstop, not the primary strategy.
Can you handle bed bugs across a convention-adjacent hotel during a Convention Center peak weekend?
Yes — Aprehend® is built for this exact scenario. It's an EPA-registered fungal biopesticide applied as a near-invisible residue along baseboards, box springs, and harborage points in the affected room plus the sentinel rooms on either side and above/below. Treated rooms typically return to inventory same-day or next-morning. Bed bugs and eggs contacting the residue die over 5–10 days. We build a protocol per-property that your housekeeping team runs alongside — sentinel monitoring on the floor for 60 days post-incident, plus pre-peak-convention walkthroughs for your highest-turnover floors.
Do you service wedding and event venues in the district including Union Station and Pan Am?
Yes — event-venue pest management is a specific sub-vertical we run. The key difference from standard commercial food service is that event venues surge from zero activity to 500-plus guests in a 90-minute window, then back to zero. That volume pattern creates dumpster-corral fly spikes, drain-load biofilm flushes, and post-event sanitation challenges the next vendor may never even see. Our program includes pre-event sanitation audits, event-day monitoring where warranted, and post-event walkthroughs to flag any introduction before the next booking. Documentation is ready for Marion County Public Health Department and catering-liability carriers.
How do you handle pigeons on historic structures like the Stutz Building and Union Station canopies?
Historic buildings need exclusion strategies compatible with preservation. We coordinate with building ownership and, when applicable, historic-preservation review to install low-visibility stainless steel spikes, bird netting behind the cornice face, and slope-angle deterrents that disappear from ground-level view. Sound deterrents and spray-on gels fail within 12 months and damage historic masonry — we don't use them. Physical exclusion is permanent, preservation-compatible, and documented for ownership records.
Do you work with historic mixed-use property managers including the Stutz Building portfolio?
Yes — historic mixed-use is one of our core Wholesale District account types. The Stutz Building, Old City Hall, converted-warehouse lofts, and similar historic mixed-use portfolios need coordinated pest programs across offices, retail, event space, ground-floor food service, and residential loft inventory all under one roof. We run a single building-wide program with line-item reporting per tenant and an ownership-level rollup. That works for both on-site building engineering and corporate-property-management compliance.
Are your treatments safe for creative agency offices and Stutz Building tenants during business hours?
Yes — though we still prefer after-hours scheduling for creative and agency space because visible pest-control activity tends to make guests and clients uncomfortable regardless of safety profile. When after-hours isn't possible, we use low-toxicity, targeted products applied in voids, cracks, and crevices — never fogged or sprayed across open workspace. Stutz tenants and creative-office accounts typically get evening or weekend treatment windows by default, with documentation that satisfies any corporate compliance or landlord-required reporting.
