Inside Terra13 Pest Control: Winnipeg's 24/7 Defender Against Manitoba's Toughest Pests

From frigid prairie winters that drive rodents indoors to humid summers that wake up ant colonies and wasps, Manitoba homes face a year-round pest calendar all their own. Terra13 Pest Control — founded and operated in Winnipeg by Breeze Tom Joseph — has built a reputation as the locally owned team that picks up the phone at 2 a.m. and shows up the same day.

A Locally Rooted Approach to a Province-Wide Problem

Headquartered at 671 Grierson Avenue in Winnipeg, Terra13 serves every corner of the city — Downtown, St. Vital, River Heights, Fort Garry, North End, West End, St. James, Transcona, East and West Kildonan, Charleswood and Headingley — and stretches well into wider Manitoba, including Steinbach, Brandon, Selkirk and Winkler. Most Winnipeg addresses can expect a technician on-site within about 45 minutes during business hours.

The company is licensed under Manitoba Pesticide Applicator License A-23353/2026 and carries full commercial liability insurance on every job — credentials that matter as much in a downtown restaurant as they do in a family bungalow.

Prevention and restoration services can be combined with treatment to address the full problem, from the entry point to the contamination left behind.

Pest Exclusion: Keeping Pests from Returning

Terra13's pest exclusion service identifies and closes the weak points pests use to enter, nest, hide and travel through a property. Technicians inspect foundations, doors, rooflines, vents, soffits, utility penetrations, baseboards and other vulnerable areas, then recommend suitable screens, barriers, sealants or repairs.

Exclusion can support rodent, squirrel, bird, cockroach and bed bug control. It is particularly useful for recurring activity, shared-wall buildings, attics, garages, balconies, warehouses and properties where treatment alone cannot prevent pests from returning.

Pest Cleanup, Sanitization and Decontamination

Professional pest cleanup addresses the droppings, urine, nesting materials, carcasses, insect debris, shed skins and odours that may remain after an infestation. Depending on the inspection, service can include waste removal, disinfection, sanitization, deodorization and decontamination of affected spaces.

Cleanup is available for homes, apartments, balconies, attics, crawl spaces, garages, restaurants, offices, warehouses and industrial properties. Common calls include rodent and bird waste, dead animal removal, cockroach debris, spider webs and egg sacs, and post-treatment cleanup after bed bugs, fleas, mites or other insects.

The Pests They Tackle

Ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, rodents, wasps and hornets, spiders, and wildlife like squirrels and birds — the usual suspects of a Manitoba year. Bed bug calls in particular spike when students move in and out, and Terra13 uses heat treatments backed by an extended warranty for those jobs.

Integrated Pest Management, Not Generic Spraying

Terra13's technicians follow an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) philosophy: identify the species, understand its lifecycle, and choose the least-toxic effective treatment. Every product they use is Health Canada–approved and registered for Manitoba residential use, with pet-friendly and child-safe options prioritized whenever possible.
