About Azalea Pest Control
A local pest control company in Orlando, started by Ewan Khan in 2017.
Ewan Khan Starts With Questions
Ewan Khan started Azalea Pest Control in 2017 to deal with the pest most of our Orlando calls are about: cockroaches, above all the big American roaches people here call palmetto bugs, plus German roaches in kitchens and bathrooms.
His first job in pest control was sealing gaps around pipes and vents on Orlando apartment buildings, and that is where he learned his routine. On site he walks the outside first, checking the foundation, the eaves and the irrigation lines, then looks at the spots you mentioned.
How We Handle a Pest Problem
The weather here stays warm nearly all year, the summer rains are heavy and the air is humid, so roaches move indoors and never really have an off season. That is why we begin each visit by finding where the pests are getting in and where they hide, and then treat those spots rather than spraying everywhere.
When we finish, we tell you what we found, what we did and what to watch for afterward. Some customers sign up for recurring service to keep pests out year-round; others call once about a single problem. Both are normal; which one fits depends on the house and the pest.
Who We Work For
We work for homeowners, renters, landlords and property managers, and for restaurants, offices and small shops. Our customers live in single-family houses, condos, apartments and townhomes in Orlando, Winter Park, Apopka, Oviedo and Kissimmee. Our Service Area lists the communities and ZIP codes.
In condos, apartments and townhomes, roaches and ants travel between units along common walls and plumbing runs, so the landlord or property manager often needs to hear what we found as much as the tenant does. In restaurants, offices and small shops, the problem usually starts where food, water and deliveries come together: the kitchen, the break room and the back door.
The Pests We Handle
Roaches come first, but they are not the only calls. We also handle ants, including fire ants and ghost ants, as well as termites, rodents, spiders, wasps, fleas, bed bugs and mosquitoes. The work falls into four services:
- General Pest Control: Palmetto bugs, German roaches, ants and spiders, traced to where they get in and treated there.
- Termite Control: Mud tubes, swarmers and soft wood checked for subterranean and drywood termites.
- Mosquito Control: Standing water and shady resting spots in the yard found and dealt with.
- Rodent Control: Rats and mice in the attic, garage or kitchen, and the gaps they use to get in.
