The Challenge Affordable Housing Operators Face
Most pest control companies treat affordable housing the same way they treat a single-family home: show up, spray, leave an invoice. That approach ignores the realities housing directors deal with every day.
- High-density spread: Shared walls and high unit density mean infestations spread faster than in market-rate properties.
- Tenant reporting gaps: Residents may delay reporting due to stigma, fear of consequences, or language barriers.
- Regulatory mandates don't wait: Ohio Code § 921.06 requires licensed commercial applicators for buildings with more than four units. HUD Notice H2012-5 requires documented response within 24 hours, inspection within three calendar days, and an active IPM plan.
- Detection-only services create gaps: Two vendors, two schedules, two invoices — and no single point of accountability.
The Central Ohio Market
Central Ohio has 7,000–10,000 public housing units and 20,000+ voucher-associated units. OHFA's $100 million annual State LIHTC program continues funding new construction.
