From Downtown Santa Monica to Ocean Park, and around places like Santa Monica Pier, Pacific Park and Tongva Park, pests turn up in every kind of building, whether it is a house, an apartment or a business. Santa Monica has about 90,700 residents, and the mild, damp air keeps insects and rodents moving in every season.

We use natural pest control options with non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. A free quote gets you started, and you will never be asked to commit to a long-term contract. Our technicians tailor every treatment to the building, since a small apartment and a full house need different plans.

What we deal with most around Santa Monica, CA
The cool, mild weather keeps ants active almost all year in Santa Monica. They follow moisture into kitchens and bathrooms and nest in planters, wall gaps and the soil along foundations. Cockroaches gather near plumbing and in the damp spots of kitchens and utility areas, and spiders set up in garages, balconies and shrubs.
Rodents, including rats, use roof lines, tree branches and utility openings to reach attics and walls, and mice slip through very small gaps. Termites are active in wood framing and trim, bed bugs travel in luggage and furniture in apartments and rentals, and fleas and mosquitoes take hold wherever pets and standing water are present. A pest inspection helps us find where each problem is getting in.
Weather and pests
How Santa Monica's weather affects pest activity
Santa Monica has a cool summer compared with most of California. July highs average only about 69 degrees, and September is typically the warmest month. The area sees roughly 1 day a year at 90 degrees or higher, January lows average around 50, December is the coldest month, and freezing nights do not occur in a normal year. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.
Precipitation is about 12 inches in a typical year, with no measurable snow, and February is usually the wettest month at roughly 3.1 inches. Moist, cool conditions favor ants, cockroaches and spiders, and winter storms drive rodents toward attics and wall voids. Since summer never gets truly hot, insects have little downtime, and a pest that arrives in fall can still be active in February.
Living in a mild climate means pest control works best as a steady routine. Trim plants back from walls and roofs, fix leaks under sinks, and keep pet food and trash sealed. Check screens and door seals in spring, and look at attics, garages and storage rooms after winter rains for signs of chewing or nesting.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Santa Monica
Ant treatment in Santa Monica
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Santa Monica, 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 Santa Monica
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Santa Monica 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 Santa Monica
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 Santa Monica home is built.
Cockroach control in Santa Monica
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 Santa Monica apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Santa Monica
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 Santa Monica
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Santa Monica. 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.
