Our Comprehensive Pest Solutions for Running Springs Homes and Businesses

We do not offer generic treatments. Our approach focuses on the biology of the specific pest found in your home and uses advanced techniques to eliminate the problem while protecting your property. We are the leading Running Springs pest control authority for a reason.

Termite Control and Protection

Termites are arguably the most destructive pest in our community. The constant availability of wood combined with the varied climate means both subterranean and drywood termites thrive here. We stop the damage before it compromises your mountain property.

• The Threat: Termite damage can remain hidden for years, weakening structural beams, subfloors, and supports. A mature termite colony is capable of causing thousands in property damage.
• Signs of Infestation: Piles of tiny wings, mud tubes on foundations, soft or hollow-sounding wood, and bubbling paint are all signs of wood-destroying insects.
• Our Solution: We provide detailed termite inspection services. For active infestations, we offer targeted treatments, including advanced techniques for localized and full-structure fumigation where necessary. Our goal is swift, complete eradication to get rid of termites in your home quickly and permanently.
• Long-Tail Q&A: How to get rid of termites in your home quickly? The fastest, most reliable method is a professional termite treatment. DIY methods only address surface issues. We use non-repellent barrier treatments that the entire termite colony carries back to the nest, ensuring the complete elimination of the reproductive source.

Rodent Control and Exclusion

Mice extermination and rat control is a year-round priority in Running Springs, especially before and during the snowy season. Rodents pose a serious threat to health and property.

• The Threat: Rodent infestation can damage wiring (a fire hazard), contaminate food, and transmit diseases. Their constant gnawing is a major concern for homes in our wooded area.
• Signs of Infestation: Finding droppings, hearing scratching in the walls or attic, and seeing signs of chewing on food packaging are clear warnings of an issue.
• Our Solution: Our strategy is built on effective rat control and rodent proofing. We locate and seal all potential entry points, often small cracks or gaps no larger than a dime, effectively cutting off access. We then use strategic placement of professional baits and traps to eliminate the remaining indoor rodent population.
• Long-Tail Q&A: Tips for preventing rodent infestations in winter? The key is exclusion. Before the cold sets in, have a professional pest proofing service seal all potential entry points in your foundation, roofline, and utility accesses. Store all firewood away from the house, and keep trash containers sealed.

Ant Control and Elimination

The vast majority of ant control Running Springs requests deal with large, pervasive colonies of carpenter ants and smaller, food-seeking varieties.

• The Threat: Carpenter ants tunnel through wood to build nests, weakening structural components over time. Other ants contaminate food and are a nuisance in kitchens and pantries.
• Signs of Infestation: Trails of ants inside and outside, or piles of wood shavings called frass.
• Our Solution: We use advanced, non-repellent baiting systems that are undetectable to the ants. This allows the worker ants to carry the treatment back to the entire ant colony, eliminating the queen and preventing future generations. This is a superior, lasting form of ant control.

Mosquito and Biting Insect Treatment

Enjoy your beautiful mountain backyard without the constant harassment of biting insects. Our seasonal pest control programs include targeted treatments to reduce populations.

• The Threat: Mosquitoes are a nuisance that can carry viruses, and their bites ruin any outdoor gathering.
• Our Solution: We focus on eliminating breeding sites and applying specialized treatments to vegetation and shaded areas where adult mosquitoes rest. This provides excellent results for your property.
• Long-Tail Q&A: Professional mosquito treatment for backyard parties. We offer targeted, one-time service applications 24-48 hours before an event to drastically reduce the mosquito population on your property, ensuring your guests can enjoy the celebration.

Cockroach and Sanitation Pest Extermination

While often associated with commercial districts, cockroaches can be a problem in any Running Springs property, particularly near high-traffic areas or commercial kitchens.

• The Threat: Cockroaches are vectors for disease and can trigger allergies and asthma. A cockroach infestation is a serious sanitation issue.
• Signs of Infestation: Seeing German cockroaches or American cockroaches, finding smear marks, or encountering a distinct, foul odor.
• Our Solution: Our approach to roach extermination involves a deep pest inspection to locate harborage sites, followed by targeted application of specialized baits and dusts to eliminate the population and prevent recurrence.
• Long-Tail Q&A: What are the first signs of a roach infestation? The most common first sign is seeing a cockroach at night. They are nocturnal. Daytime sightings or a sudden increase in black, pepper-like droppings are signs the infestation is growing rapidly.

Bed Bug Extermination

Bed bugs are hitchhikers, easily brought in from hotels, travel, or furniture. They require expert, meticulous treatment to eradicate.

• The Threat: Bed bugs feed on blood, leaving behind painful and itchy bed bug bites. They multiply quickly and can spread throughout an entire structure.
• Signs of Infestation: Small, rusty spots on mattresses or bedding, finding tiny egg casings, or seeing the insects themselves, particularly along seams and crevices.
• Our Solution: We use an aggressive, multi-faceted approach. This often includes targeted heat treatment and residual product applications to eliminate all life stages, including eggs hidden deep within crevices and furnishings.
• Long-Tail Q&A: Best way to exterminate bed bugs without chemicals? While complete elimination often requires a comprehensive approach, professional heat treatment is a highly effective, non-chemical method. It raises the temperature of the entire affected area to a lethal level, eliminating the insects and their eggs in one service.

Spider and Wasp Removal

Spiders and wasps are common in our environment, seeking refuge in eaves, under decks, and in dense vegetation.

• Spiders: While most spiders are harmless, our treatments focus on reducing the population of common house spiders and perimeter prevention to keep them from entering your living space. We include perimeter power-sprays in our seasonal pest control plans.
• Wasps and Hornets: These stinging insects can be a serious danger, especially to children and pets. We safely and completely remove the nest.
• Long-Tail Q&A: What to do if you find a wasp nest? Do not attempt to remove or treat a wasp nest yourself. Wasp stings can be dangerous, and the entire colony will aggressively defend the nest. Immediately contact professional bug extermination experts for safe, complete removal.
