We provide services for basic general pest control ie: ants, roaches, earwigs, etc. We also provide local spot treatments for Drywood termites & Subterranean termites. Depending on the severity of the Drywood Termite evidence, we will recommend a tent fumigation. Estimates are free unless the home is for sale. When a home is for sale, the report is a much more detailed inspection, therefore we do charge a fee. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an inspection, please do not hesitate to call us (619) 584-6794.

"I live in a semi-detached home and my neighbor's contractor knocked on my door and informed me that he had found active termites in the wall that we shared. He also reported that the wood rot on my window and in other areas were allegedly due to active termites. I informed him that I had previously had those areas inspected (by Mt. Helix Termite Control) a few years ago and was informed that it was normal wood rot not due to termites. My husband and I asked the contractor appropriate follow up questions that any homeowner would naturally ask. He contradicted himself several times and even became upset with us for just asking the questions. We knew we would not work with this guy either way but needed to know if we really did now have termites. So of course it was time to contact Mt. Helix Termite Control again. Again Rob came out and thoroughly inspected the inside and outside of my home including the garage and attic. He also had my husband and I follow him as he inspected and explained how to detect termite activity and how to differentiate between termite activity and normal wood rot. He informed us that we had NO active termite activity. I informed our neighbor of the result of our inspection by Mt. Helix. My husband and I felt such relief and peace of mind especially after the pressure our neighbor's contractor tried to put on us. Rob could have easily lied to us especially after we had been falsely informed that we had termites. Just like several years ago, I am again impressed and grateful for the honesty and integrity of this company. I really appreciate this company!!!"

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Powdery mildew tends to grow mostly on leafy plants. The mold itself isn’t particularly harmful, except for those who are allergic to mold. However, you should treat it like you’d treat the discovery of any other mold, and get rid of it immediately. Powdery mildew can spread to your home, which can cause expensive damage. 

It depends on the condition of the grass during the drought. If your grass completely died, it won’t turn green again after drought. However, if it just went dormant, you still have a chance to revive your lawn once drought conditions have passed. Follow proper lawn care practices after a drought to try and get your lawn back to its healthy, green self.

If the grass is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. However, you can grow new grass in its place or try the methods mentioned above to revive the grass if it isn’t entirely dead. You can expect St. Augustine grass to come back after moderate droughts, but it will suffer significant nutrient loss after an extended period of drought.

Yes, grass will regrow after forestry mulching, but the timeline depends on soil conditions, mulch thickness, and existing seed banks. The nutrient-rich mulch left behind helps retain moisture and improve soil health, encouraging regrowth. However, if the mulch layer is too thick, it may block sunlight and slow grass germination. For faster results, you can rake excess mulch, aerate the soil, and plant the new grass seeds.

Depending on the species, most fescue grasses thrive in USDA hardiness zones 3 through 8, though some varieties can thrive as far as zone 10. While it’s a cool-season grass, it has the unique ability to adapt and thrive in many different types of climates. For this reason, you'll mostly find fescue grasses throughout the transitional temperature zones of the country.
