Public Service Announcement Regarding Sanitation Services
Dear Kootenai and Spokane County community members, patrons, and friends,
Our team members at each of our locations have been receiving calls from our community requesting information regarding sanitation services specific to Covid-19 and whether or not we offer those services. We would love to serve our community in any way we can, however we are not performing sanitation services specific to Covid-19. Here are the reasons why.
1. We are a company that stands behind everything we do from our products, services, and people. Performing a sanitation service at someones home cannot be guaranteed and we will not do a service that we cannot stand behind.
2. We are a pest control company first and we are highly trained in every service we perform. It is highly unlikely that Insurance will cover any claim made if a sanitation service targeting Covid-19 is unsuccessful.
3. This virus seems to have a very long incubation period in which the host can shed the virus. This means that even if your home was completely sanitized, if someone infected with the virus sneezes, coughs, or touches anything that was previously sanitized will reinfect the area and render the sanitation ineffective.
Our team at Kaptar Environmental Pest Control Services want you and your family to be well informed so you can make the best and most educated decisions regarding your safety! If you have any questions please feel free to call any of our locations. Thank you all and stay safe!

As the temperatures drop and winter sets in, it’s tempting to think that pest problems have disappeared with the warm weather. After all, mosquitoes are gone, ants aren’t marching across the kitchen, and flies have stopped buzzing around. However, the absence of visible pests doesn’t mean they’ve vanished entirely. In fact, winter can be one of the most important times to maintain regular pest control services. Winter pest control ensures your home remains protected from pests that are still active, often hidden, and potentially dangerous. Let’s explore why pest control is essential even during the colder months.
Spider habits, common winter species, and how to deal with infestations.
By following pheromone trails laid by scout ants from their colony, foraging ants can gather and store food efficiently. A scout ant first leaves the nest in search of food, wandering somewhat randomly until it discovers something edible. It then consumes some of the food and returns to the nest in a direct line.
