Our Driving Purpose
PerimeTek was founded in 2008 with one goal: to raise the professional standard of commercial pest management. From starting out as a small home-based operation, to now having the only privately owned, state-of-the-art Urban Entomology Lab in the northeast region of the US, every step of our growth has been rooted in science, integrity, and the belief that results should be measurable.
Where most companies broaden their reach, we chose to narrow our focus, serving only commercial environments where performance, and compliance, are critical. That decision has shaped everything we do, from our technician training programs to the way we design data-backed treatment protocols.
Today, PerimeTek stands as a trusted partner to food processors, healthcare networks, property managers, and manufacturers across New York. Our internal research, advanced diagnostics, and proactive communication standards make us the company others call when the job requires precision.
