General & Quarterly Pest Control
Regular service for homes, apartments and businesses, inside and out.
Services
Twelve services covering the insects, rodents and animals that cause the most trouble in coastal Southern California.
General and quarterly service covers the usual suspects inside and around the house. Argentine ants and cockroaches get their own pages, because both need a specific approach: ant trails have to be followed back outside, and German cockroaches in apartments need the building treated, not just one kitchen. Spiders, including black widows in garages and block walls, round out the list.
Termite work starts with an inspection, whether for your own peace of mind or for a home sale. From there, drywood termites may call for fumigation or a local treatment, and subterranean termites for treatment through the soil. Each service page explains the difference in plain terms.
Roof rats and mice are trapped, the mess they leave is cleaned up, and the openings are sealed. Raccoons, opossums and skunks are removed humanely and kept out of crawl spaces, decks and attics afterward.
Bed bugs, fleas and ticks are about the people and pets in the home, while mosquitoes and wasps are mostly about the yard. All of them respond best to treatment that also removes the conditions they rely on.

How it works
Describe the pest, where you see it and for how long. A photo of the insect or the droppings helps us prepare.
We look for the source, the entry points and the conditions the pest needs, indoors and out.
You hear what we suggest, what it involves, and anything you need to do before and after.
Some pests take more than one visit. We check results and adjust until the problem is under control.
Tell us what the pest looks like and where it shows up. A photo helps. We will tell you what it probably is and how to deal with it.
