Pioneer Pest Management Safety Measures
Employees
- Our technicians have not traveled out of the country and are not demonstrating any symptoms. If that were to change and our employees were to become symptomatic, they will be pulled from the field and quarantined at home.
- Our technicians have been instructed to stay home if they are experiencing symptoms or have come into contact with someone that may have been exposed.
Residential Appointments
A lot of our work can be performed on your exterior without contact. If the scope of work requires admission into the home, it will only be done under the following circumstances:
- The technician will confirm with the homeowner that they want the technician to be in their home to complete the work.

- The technician and homeowner will maintain a distance while in the home.
- The technician will be wearing PPE (shoecovers and gloves) at all visits. Due to the limited supply of masks, they will be wearing masks as requested by the homeowner.
- The technicians will be performing regular hand washing and disinfecting equipment in between home visits.
