Pests we treat around Cerritos
Pests in Cerritos
What we deal with most around Cerritos, CA
With its trimmed hedges and well-watered lawns, Cerritos gives ants an easy path from garden to kitchen. Cockroaches settle in around warm appliances and plumbing, spiders build in eaves and garage corners, and roof rats use trees and fence tops to move to the attic. Fleas show up quickly where pets lounge outdoors, and mosquitoes will use any bit of standing water, such as a plant saucer or a birdbath.
A typical year here has about 39 days at 90 degrees or higher and no nights at freezing. Without winter cold to knock populations back, insects keep reproducing all year, and heat in late summer only speeds them up. Regular preventive visits tend to work better than waiting for a problem.
Weather and pests
How Cerritos's weather affects pest activity
Cerritos is mild and sunny for most of the year. July highs average about 84 degrees, and August is typically the warmest month. January lows average around 46 degrees, and December is usually the coldest month. The area gets about 12 inches of precipitation in a typical year, with no snow to speak of. The numbers here are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so use them as a guide, not a forecast.
February is the wettest month at roughly 3 inches. A few storms in a short window can push ants out of the ground and into the house, and they leave water in clogged gutters, flower pots and low corners of a yard. Because the rest of the year is dry, sprinklers do most of the watering, and leaks or overspray near the foundation give pests a reliable supply of moisture.
A year in Cerritos might go like this. In late winter, look for ant activity after the rain and clear drainage. In spring, pull mulch back from the foundation and cut back branches touching the roof. In summer, check sprinkler heads and pet areas, and in fall, seal small openings around pipes, vents and doors so rodents and spiders find fewer ways in.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Cerritos
Ant treatment in Cerritos
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Cerritos, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Cerritos
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Cerritos buildings offer plenty of all three. They can be a year-round issue. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Cerritos
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Cerritos home is built.
Cockroach control in Cerritos
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Cerritos apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Cerritos
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Cerritos
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Cerritos. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
