Beetle Pest Control Service
Southern California is home to a diverse array of beetles that thrive on rotting vegetation and other refuse. These beetles, while not harmful to humans, can become a significant nuisance when they invade yard spaces, gardens, and occasionally, homes. Their presence can quickly turn a pleasant evening outdoors into an unpleasant experience and wreak havoc on your garden. If beetles are taking over your space, our expert pest control services are here to help. We offer effective solutions to manage and eliminate beetle infestations, ensuring your outdoor spaces remain enjoyable and your garden stays healthy and vibrant.
Wood Boring Beetles
Wood-boring beetles are a prevalent issue in Southern California, posing a significant threat to wooden structures. These beetles share similarities with termites in that they cause extensive damage to wood by boring holes during both their larval and adult stages. Typically, wood-boring beetles infest dead trees, which can later be used in construction, thereby introducing the problem into homes and buildings. They are also commonly found in areas with high humidity and poor ventilation, such as crawl spaces, basements, and attics.
The damage caused by these beetles can compromise the integrity of wooden structures, leading to costly repairs if left untreated. Signs of infestation include tiny, round exit holes in wood surfaces, fine sawdust-like frass, and weakened or crumbling wood. Early detection and prompt treatment are crucial to prevent extensive damage.
Our approach to eliminating wood-boring beetles involves the use of a chemical called Boracare. This effective treatment penetrates the wood, targeting both larvae and adult beetles, preventing them from boring further and causing damage. Boracare not only eradicates existing infestations but also provides long-lasting protection against future beetle invasions. Our professional pest control services ensure that your wooden structures remain intact and secure, protecting your home or business from the destructive impact of wood-boring beetles.

Beetle Treatment
When treating beetle infestations, our process begins with sending a professional, state-licensed, and certified technician to inspect your property. The technician will conduct a thorough assessment to determine the type and extent of the infestation. Once the source of the beetle problem is identified, we will work with you to customize a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and budget.
Our approach includes an initial treatment to eliminate the existing beetle population. However, to ensure long-term protection and prevent future infestations, we recommend implementing a regular treatment plan. This ongoing service is designed to keep beetles out of your property all year long.
Depending on your property’s unique requirements, the severity of the infestation, and your budget, we offer various options for ongoing beetle control services. These can be scheduled on a monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly basis. For those concerned about the use of traditional pesticides, we also provide organic beetle pest control services available on a monthly basis, ideal for those who are chemically sensitive or prefer eco-friendly solutions.
Our commitment to your satisfaction is our first priority. If you see any beetles between regularly scheduled treatments, we will return to re-treat the affected area at no additional cost. This ensures that your property remains beetle-free and you enjoy peace of mind knowing that we stand by the effectiveness of our services.
Indoors
We treat all baseboards, cracks, and crevices with odorless, non-staining products to ensure thorough pest control without compromising the appearance or safety of your interior spaces. These treatments are highly effective in targeting hidden beetles and preventing them from spreading further. Interior services are generally necessary only during the initial treatment to establish a solid foundation for pest control. However, we also offer these services occasionally upon request, ensuring that any emerging issues are promptly addressed and your home remains beetle-free. This approach provides a comprehensive solution to beetle infestations while maintaining the comfort and cleanliness of your living environment.
Outdoors
A non-repellent pesticide will be applied around the perimeter of the home to create a protective barrier that prevents beetles and other pests from entering. In addition, we will perform de-webbing of all windows, eaves, structural edges, and other pest harborages to remove spider webs and deter future pest activity. To further enhance protection, pesticide granules will be applied around all drip systems, plants, flowers, shrubs, grass areas, pools, and fence lines. This comprehensive approach ensures that your entire property is safeguarded against infestations, maintaining a pest-free environment both inside and out. By targeting multiple areas where pests are likely to harbor and breed, we provide a thorough and effective solution to keep your home and garden secure.
