Triangle Pest Control is proud to maintain an ongoing training partnership with NC State University through the Structural Pest Extension, Research, and Training (SPERT) Program.
Through this collaboration, SPERT instructors regularly conduct in-person workshops at our Apex, NC office. Recent sessions have focused on rodents, termites, and cockroaches, with additional topics continuing as part of our long-term commitment to professional development.
This is not a one-time initiative. It is a structured, continuing relationship built around elevating industry standards.

A Strategic Collaboration Between Industry and Research
The SPERT Program, part of NC State Extension, connects university research with licensed pest management professionals across North Carolina.
By hosting recurring in-house workshops, Triangle Pest Control has created a consistent bridge between academic research and real-world service application.
This format allows:
- Direct engagement between instructors and technicians
- Open discussion around evolving industry standards
- Alignment between research-backed methodology and field execution
- Ongoing reinforcement of professional excellence
The goal is not simply continuing education credits. The goal is long-term alignment with best practices.
Reinforcing Authority Through Consistency
Professional pest management evolves. Regulations update. Research advances. Environmental conditions shift.
An ongoing relationship with NC State’s SPERT Program ensures our team remains connected to:
- Current research insights
- State-level training leadership
- Evolving structural pest strategies
- A higher standard of accountability
By maintaining recurring workshops at our Apex office, we demonstrate that professional development is not reactive. It is built into our operational model.

A Model for Long-Term Partnership
This collaboration reflects a shared belief that strong industry performance begins with strong educational foundations.
Rather than treating training as an annual requirement, we view it as an active partnership. Hosting multiple sessions over time, with additional workshops planned, reinforces that commitment.
Triangle Pest Control values its relationship with NC State and looks forward to continuing to grow this partnership in the years ahead.
