About our service
Pest control for Los Gatos, CA
Los Gatos has about 33,000 residents and a lot of trees, and trees are the first thing a pest technician thinks about. Parks like Oak Meadow Park, Worcester Park and Vasona Lake County Park, along with neighborhoods such as The Highlands of Los Gatos, keep shade, leaf litter and water close to many homes, which is exactly what ants, spiders and rodents want.
Natural Pest Solutions offers ant treatment, rodent control, termite control and pest inspection service across Los Gatos. We use natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. You will never be asked to sign a long-term contract, and you can start with a free quote.

Pests in Los Gatos
What we deal with most around Los Gatos, CA
Wetter winters and shady yards make this a good place for carpenter ants, which nest in damp wood such as old stumps, fence posts and window frames. Spiders spin in eaves and garages, and ants follow moisture into kitchens as soon as the rain arrives. Mice and roof rats climb along branches to reach rooflines, and wasps build in wall voids and under decks.
Termites work in wood that touches soil or stays wet, and stink bugs and boxelder bugs can collect on sunny walls as temperatures drop. Mosquitoes breed in gutters and plant containers, and ticks can come in from brushy areas on pets. Cutting back branches that touch the roof and keeping firewood off the ground are simple ways to limit all of it.
Weather and pests
How Los Gatos's weather affects pest activity
The numbers here are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast. July highs in Los Gatos average about 85 degrees, and July is also the warmest month. January lows average around 40, January is the coldest month, and about 13 nights a year reach freezing or below.
Rain is heavier here than in many California places, at about 22 inches a year, and January is the wettest month at roughly 5 inches. No snow is expected. Around 27 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, so summers are warm without being extreme. Steady winter rain keeps soil and wood damp, which supports termites and carpenter ants for months.
That combination of a wet winter and a warm summer suggests a two-part plan. After the rains, check crawl spaces, roof lines and deck posts for moisture and wood damage. In summer, focus on standing water, ants and yard pests, and in fall, close entry points so that cold nights do not send rodents and overwintering insects indoors.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Los Gatos
Ant treatment in Los Gatos
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Los Gatos, 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 Los Gatos
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Los Gatos 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 Los Gatos
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 Los Gatos home is built.
Cockroach control in Los Gatos
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 Los Gatos apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Los Gatos
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 Los Gatos
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Los Gatos. 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.
