A Local Business Built on Experience, Integrity, and Service
Valley Inspections & Pests was built on a simple idea: people deserve pest control they can trust. After years of working as a home inspector, I kept finding pest issues that families didn’t even realize were present—problems that required honest evaluation rather than sales pressure. Because of those experiences, I chose to expand my training and become certified in pest control so I could offer clearer answers, stronger solutions, and genuine peace of mind for local homeowners and businesses.
Today, with 22 years of experience and a small, reliable team, we proudly serve Josephine County and Jackson County. Moreover, we provide professional pest control, mold testing, and mold remediation to help protect local homes and workplaces. Every service begins with a detailed inspection and continues with clear communication, safe treatment, and long-term protection. As a result, our customers receive not only effective solutions but also dependable support and guidance throughout the entire process.
