Bed bugs, roaches, mice… and cash flow. In this Wealth Genius episode, Alfonso sits down with Christian Gilbert, an exterminator and real estate investor, to unpack the true cost of pest infestations in multifamily buildings and the fastest, most reliable ways to fix them.
Christian shares how a 2012 bed bug crisis pushed him to launch his own pest-control operations and a specialty “last-resort” service (888 SOS BUGS) that treats entire units, and even whole buildings, using high-temperature thermal remediation. We dig into why chemicals often fail (egg survival and resistance), how re-introductions happen even after a “successful” treatment, and why owner control (including enforcing prep, sealing building penetrations, and, when necessary, evictions) is critical to protect NOI.
