"I was in desperate need of some help and answers to my pest problems. This was the first & only Pro that contacted me. While I didn't technically hire them, they were very professional and responded quickly to my project request. The project was quoted at $200, but I was only charged $50 for a down payment and inspection. While I may still be baffled at how I got a small invasion of pesky flies, the Pro was excellent at communicating with me and still offered their services in my time of need."

"Brian Higgins the owner, was very thorough and considerate. He gave us a fair price and did a wonderful job. He eliminated the dead rats at were in the attic and under the house. He helped us fog the entire house to get rid of the mites that were biting me for 6 months. Then Brian climbed on the roof and covered all access holes with wire mess. He did that to the perimeter of the house too. Finally he set traps with bate in the attic and crawl space under the house. Two weeks later he returned and did an inspection of the traps to make sure there was no additional activity . He is a very pleasant guy and I would highly recommend using him again if needed .R Blecher"

"The owner of Ratting and Rodents and his employees are very much a professional when it comes to explaining, researching, and having plenty of suggestions for me that I could do with my home and very patient with me regarding my questions. Cesar has so much passion when it came to finalizing my very terrible yet very serious rat and rodent infestation. Sterilization was most important for me. All my concerns were taken care of by Cesar immediately and with future appointments that are coming up in the near future. They offer a free inspection and are open 24 hour emergency service calls. We were very happy with the scope of service provided, pricing and would highly recommend. Cesar thank you again for your epic customer service and professionalism! I have recommended him and Ratting on Rodents to my neighbors and when asked by others. Thank you Ratting and Rodents!"

"Matt Muth performed the inspection and was punctual, professional and personable. He performed the inspection and it was determined the best option for us would be tenting, something we had hoped to avoid but Matt was honest and straightforward in his evaluation. That said, once we have resolved our immediate problem I would not hesitate to hire Pacific Coast Termite to perform a maintenance program so we don't get into the situation again."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Earwigs may look scary with their pincers, but they don’t pose a serious threat to humans or pets. They are not poisonous, do not sting, and rarely bite or pinch unless handled. While they are not known to transmit diseases, their presence can signal underlying moisture problems in your home, such as mold, water damage, or rotting wood. A large infestation can become a nuisance, and certain species may emit an unpleasant odor. Therefore, while earwigs themselves aren’t dangerous, a large number of them may indicate bigger issues that should be addressed by a pest control professional.

No, wasps only attack when they feel threatened. A sting may seem unprovoked to us, but we likely got too close to a nest. Threatened wasps do, however, send out a strong pheromone that instantly attracts any other wasps in the area. 

Hornets are attracted to bright colors that look like flowers, including purple, pink, white, green, and yellow. They are least attracted to dark colors, such as blue and black. 

When a wasp stings, it pushes its stinger into the skin and releases venom. The sting site will typically become inflamed and swollen and likely hurt quite a bit. 

Some people are allergic to the venom and can have serious allergic reactions to a wasp sting. This sting could cause the throat to swell, difficulty breathing, hives, rapid heart rate, and vomiting. If you or someone has an allergic reaction to a wasp sting, it’s important to call 911 for emergency treatment, as reactions can be life-threatening.

Brown recluse spiders are most active at night. As the name “recluse” suggests, they prefer the dark, which is when they hunt small insects and other spiders. Regarding the time of year, brown recluses are more likely to be seen during warmer months, typically between March and October.
