About Elk Grove, CA & Our Pest Control Services
Spanish explorer Gabriel Moraga entered the region in 1808, naming the valley “Sacramento Valley” in honor of Sacramento, the Holy Sacrament in Spanish, giving the northernly city of Sacramento of which Elk Grove is a suburb its name. A writer on Moraga’s expedition wrote of the region: “Canopies of oaks and cottonwoods, many festooned with grapevines, overhung both sides of the blue current. Birds chattered in the trees and big fish darted through the pellucid depths. The air was like champagne, and (the Spaniards) drank deep of it, drank in the beauty around them.”

Bedbugs like to strike in the evening and will remain active until just before morning. While lying on an infested bed, bedbugs bite a person’s exposed skin, creating crimson itchy marks. Bed bugs were previously thought to be extinct in the United States, but they’re making a comeback thanks to overseas travelers. The most common places to find them are motels and condominium developments. These bugs may live for a year without eating. This enables them to go from one location to another until they discover a comfy location with food.
Also, they are now residing in couches and may be transferred from house to house utilizing used furniture. Domestic animals with thick hair, such as dogs and cats, provide a great hiding area for bedbugs. Taking public transit, such as buses, trains, and taxis may expose you to bed bugs, which you may then bring home with you. Bedbugs are six-legged parasitic parasites that feed on human and animal blood. They are about a quarter of an inch long and have an oval flat shape. A typical female will lay 5 to 7 eggs each week and produce around 500 eggs throughout the length of her life, which can range from 12 to 75 months. Between 6 and 17 days after being deposited, the eggs mature into nymphs. Pesticides and herbicides have no impact on bed bug eggs.
Termite Pest Control in Elk Grove, CA
Ant Pest Control in Elk Grove, CA
California is home to around 270 different kinds of ants. In cold, damp weather, such as the winter, when they are seeking a warm place to stay, ants are more likely to enter homes. A common invader in Northern California is the Argentine ant. Argentine Ant colonies typically have 300 queens and 1,000 workers. They don’t make a permanent home and instead move to a new area when a threat is detected.
Carpenter ants are a big species that may be found throughout Northern California. They have the same ability to chew through wood as termites, but instead of eating it, they use it to gain access to your home and establish their nests. Carpenter ants are so aggressive that they will combat termites if they believe they are causing structural harm. Carpenter ants can enter your home through firewood, which is ideal for breeding since it is rotting or moist. Carpenter Ants may cause major structural damage to a structure if not dealt with swiftly, putting the people who reside there in danger.

HIGH QUALITY PEST CONTROL CUSTOMER CARE
High quality pest control begins and ends with high quality customer care. Pest control is so much more than knowing what to spray or how to trap (though that is essential). The best pest control service happens when taking care of our customers’ satisfaction is as important or more important than the physical service we provide. That’s what we’re committed to in every interaction with each of our customers.
All of our technicians are all licensed and well trained in the latest targeted application combinations and techniques. They are experienced professionals who can assess, diagnose, and solve your most stubborn pest problems. But they are also friendly, personable, and communicate well. We teach them to check in with you before and after every visit so they can understand your concerns and address them. We know how important your home or business is to you. We want you to not only be pest-free, but to also have peace of mind. We treat people and their homes and properties the way we’d like to be treated because we truly care.
Another way we show we care is by keeping prices affordable. We believe high quality pest control is a necessity to help protect homes, families, and businesses from disease, damage, and decay. So we work hard to manage our business responsibly so that we can pass the savings on to you.
Try us out for free! Call for your no-charge, no-obligation phone consultation. Or text us a picture of your pest problem (yes, even droppings!). We can help identify pests, answer questions, and recommend treatment options. We’re happy to help.
