One Bad Review Can Follow You Forever
Pests are one of the fastest ways to lose a guest, a rating, and a future booking. The problem looks different depending on the property you run, but the outcome is the same: canceled stays, refund demands, and a reputation hit you did not earn.
For Hotel & Motel Operators
- Bed bugs spreading from room to room, pulling inventory offline
- Roaches in back-of-house, breakfast areas, and laundry
- Rodents finding gaps around dumpsters and loading docks
- Reactive pest control that only shows up after a complaint
- Inspectors flagging issues that threaten your health score
For AirBnb, VRBO & Short Term Rental Hosts
- A single 1-star review tanking your Superhost status
- Bed bugs brought in by guest luggage between turnovers
- Ants and spiders showing up in vacation photos
- No on-site staff to catch problems before check-in
- Out-of-town ownership with no local pest partner
The Cost of Ignoring It Is Higher Than the Cost of Solving It
Pest infestations do not just make guests uncomfortable. They damage your reputation, your revenue, and your ability to meet health and safety standards. Whether you manage a flagged hotel or a handful of short term rentals, the math is the same.
Protect Your Reputation
Guests remember one roach longer than ten great stays. We stop the story before it reaches your reviews.
Protect Your Revenue
Refunds, cancellations, and offline rooms add up fast. Prevention costs a fraction of a single refunded week.
Meet Health & Safety Standards
Hotels face inspectors. STR hosts face platform rules. Both need documented, professional pest control.
Keep Guests & Staff Safe
Our treatments are eco-friendly and applied discreetly so your guests never see the process, only the result.
Service that fits your front desk and protects your back of house.
Running a hotel or motel means a thousand small things have to go right every day, and a single pest sighting can undo all of them. Our hotel and motel programs are built around your operation, not the other way around. We schedule interior and exterior service to fit your occupancy, perform room-by-room bed bug inspections with rapid response when issues come up, and stay focused on the back-of-house spaces guests never see, including kitchens, laundry rooms, storage areas, and the loading dock and dumpster zones where rodents tend to enter.
Every visit is documented so you have what you need for inspectors and ownership groups, and our technicians work discreetly so your guests only ever notice the result. With more than 30 years protecting Raleigh-area properties, the Crew in Blue knows the pest pressure that hits the Triangle and how to keep it out of your rooms.
Coverage that keeps pace with your turnover calendar.
Vacation rental hosts work on tight turnover windows and even tighter review margins, so our short term rental programs are built for flexibility. Whether you manage one Airbnb or a portfolio of VRBO homes, we time service to fit your booking calendar, focus on bed bug prevention between guest stays, and apply exterior barrier treatments that keep ants, spiders, and mosquitoes off the deck before your next family checks in.
Out-of-town owners get the same level of communication as local clients, with reports you can forward to a co-host or property manager. Choose a one-time visit before peak season, or a recurring plan that protects your home year-round and keeps your Superhost status intact through every five-star stay.

The Treatments We Use
The Treatments We Use
Our team employs a variety of eco-friendly, safe, and affordable pest control treatments. Depending on the specifics of your pest problem, we may use one or several methods. You can rest assured that we have the tools, products, and experience needed to eliminate your pest infestation.
We offer the following types of treatments for hotels and motels:
- Spray Treatments: Spray treatments are a popular method for eliminating or repelling insects and other pests. Spray treatments usually involve spraying a liquid solution or aerosol over the affected area. These compounds kill or repel pests upon contact with a treated surface.
- Foam Treatments: The foam pest control method uses insecticides mixed with air and sprayed in a foam consistency onto affected areas. As it expands and dries, it forms a protective barrier around the infestation site. This barrier helps keep out new pests while trapping existing ones and killing them immediately upon contact. The foam also has residual effects, which means that if new pests invade the area, they will still be repelled or killed off by the remaining insecticides in the foam.
- Bait Stations: Bait stations are another form of pest control and involve placing small, specialized containers in the affected area. Inside these containers is a bait—usually a food source attractive to the targeted pest. The pest is then drawn to the station by the presence of food and ingests the bait. The active ingredients in the bait work to kill or repel the pest soon after ingestion.
- Borate Treatments: Borate treatments use borates, compounds containing boron and other elements, to eliminate pest infestations. Borates disrupt a pest’s digestive system, preventing it from absorbing nutrients. They can target specific pests or pest species and are generally considered safe for the environment.
- Liquid Barrier Products: Liquid barrier products involve the application of a liquid pesticide to the exterior perimeter of a building, creating a barrier that will kill or repel targeted pests. The liquid is typically applied to the soil, foundation, or other surfaces around the building, forming a barrier that pests cannot safely cross. Liquid barrier products can control various pests, including ants, cockroaches, termites, and rodents. This treatment can also prevent termites from attacking the building by creating a barrier in the soil around the building’s foundation.
The treatments we use are safe and environmentally friendly. We can also apply them discreetly so that your guests can enjoy their stay without worrying about a potential infestation.

What Are the Most Common Pests Found in Hotels and Motels?
You may be wondering what pests you can expect to run into when running a hotel. Though there are a variety of pests out there, a few are especially suited for hotels.
If you are a hotel owner, keep a lookout for the following:
- Cockroaches are attracted to damp or dirty areas where food is present.
- Mice and rats can make their way into hotel rooms via gaps in walls or floors.
- Ants are attracted to sweet foods left out by staff or guests.
- Silverfish lurk in dark areas, such as closets or bathrooms, and thrive on books, paper goods, cardboard boxes, and other items that contain starch.
- Bed bugs are small, blood-sucking creatures easily transported via luggage or clothing into a hotel room. In other words, bed bugs are a pest you, your guests, or staff can unknowingly introduce to a hotel.
Each of these pests is concerning; however, you should be especially vigilant about bed bugs, as they spread rapidly and can put many of your hotel rooms out of commission if they are not treated immediately.
