Environmental Health Unit (EHU)
Who we are
We are a team of highly trained and licensed pest control professionals with additional training in mould identification, asbestos management, and other environment-related issues that can affect your quality of living.
We have staff across the TCHC portfolio and respond to escalations through the Mayor’s Office, City Councillors, the Ombudsman’s Office, your superintendent, or react to environmental concerns raised by tenants.
When staff report mould at a building, we come out to confirm it is there and determine next steps for repair.
We support and recommend major building-wide projects including pest clean-outs and solutions to issues that cause pest problems, mould confirmation and remediation process coordination. We evaluate and assess treatment options for projects or individual units.
EHU staff provide quality assurance inspections for pest control vendors to ensure the pest control companies are compliant with current laws and regulations outlined in the Pesticides Act, and to monitor the quality of treatments in all TCHC buildings.
EHU provides reliable information to TCHC staff and tenants so staff can provide timely, effective pest control strategies to their respective communities and tenants are aware of treatment options and expected results.
