Here’s one thing you should understand about nature: everything is a survivor. If a creature has made it into 2016, it probably has some solid survival instincts. That’s why most pests like to hide so much – they know that humans are potentially dangerous, so they stay away. That’s how they keep themselves alive. Of […]

Did you know that this time of year can be considered “bed bug season?” It’s not an official title or anything like that, but bed bug problems do kick up a notch during wintertime. That’s because humans are integral to the bed bug transferring process. A person with bed bugs might leave their home with […]

Getting rid of a pest problem is never as easy as simply avoiding it in the first place. Once a pest infestation is established, you’ve got thousands of insects to deal with – if you can even find the source. Merely locating the nest can be a nightmare, and even if you do, you’ve still […]

I’m just going to jump right into the list with No. 1, because there’s one insect that’s the undisputed king of property damage: the termite. They even belong to their own category: wood-boring insects. We have a whole category dedicated to bugs that destroy wood! So it just wouldn’t make sense to begin with any […]

I like the title of this blog because it has the word “solutions” in it. Isn’t that a nice sentiment? Being able to provide a service is one thing, but a solution is even better – because a solution solves a problem. And if you’ve got pests in your home, then friend: you’ve got a problem. […]

Evolution is a funny thing – that’s an interesting way to start a blog about termites and ants, isn’t it? But today we’re discussing the alarming similarities between these two tiny insects. And how else can you explain this outcome? That’s evolution. Centuries or millennia ago, ants and termites may have had a common ancestor. […]

Bakersfield is an interesting spot in California – it’s close enough to the South to drive to LA, but it isn’t Southern California. It’s also not that far from the Bay Area and Sacramento, but it’s not Northern California either. Perhaps that’s why Bakersfield isn’t really like either of those places; it exists in a little […]

If you’ve ever lived by some open fields or out “in the boonies,” then you’ve probably encountered your fair share of mice. And to be honest, it can be pretty easy to handle a problem like that. As we’ve explained on our blog before, even the simplest dollar-store mousetraps are effective against these little critters. But […]

Running a hotel sounds like an awful lot of work to me, but I bet that’s true of most professions. I’m sure to outsiders, pest control seems like an awful lot of work, too. We’re dealing with massive pest populations in small areas, trying to exterminate every last little bug in an entire home. When […]

I really love California, as it seems most Californians do. Just think about all of the odes written to and about The Golden State: “California Dreaming”, “California Love”, “California Girls” (The Beach Boys), “California Gurls” (Katy Perry with Snoop Dogg) – and those are just the ones off the top of my head. In fact, […]
