- Pest Identification
- AntsThe ant is an insect with three distinct body regions, short antennae, and a defined waist; their size and shape make it easy for most people to identify them. Ants have a very varied diet and eat many of the same foods we do, which is why they are so attracted to the areas we live in or spend our time.
- SpidersSpiders, like many insects, are regular visitors to our yards and homes. However, spiders are actually arachnids and are considered beneficial because of the number of insects they feed on, helping to control their populations.
- TermitesTermites are one of the most destructive pests that homeowners have to deal with. They move into our homes and businesses without our knowledge and work day and night for months or years, feeding on and destroying the wood within. Though they are tiny in size, you can believe the hype that comes with these pests; they are responsible for causing over five billion dollars in damage across the country each year!
- Bed BugsBed bugs are flat, oval-shaped insects; they are wingless and have short antennae. In addition to spotting these apple seed-shaped insects in your home, other signs of their presence include...

- CockroachesAt HomeShield Pest Control our priority is to keep your home or business bug and pest-free. Along with our California pest control service, we also specialize in cockroach control and extermination. Cockroaches are a common problem throughout California and can be one of the most bothersome pests.
- SilverfishOther pests like earwigs, silverfish, millipedes, and centipedes are referred to as occasional invaders. These pests live very successfully outside in our gardens, yards, and trees. Typically the only thing that drives these pests indoors is unsuitable weather. They aren’t pests that move inside to feed or breed, just to escape extremely hot, cold, wet, or dry environmental conditions.
- BeesMaybe you are sitting outside enjoying a warm summer morning, but there is one thing making this quiet moment unenjoyable, a bee buzzing around the coffee you desperately need to start your day. It’s not uncommon to experience bees in your California yard.
- WaspsWasps: Wasps prefer to nest up off the ground. They will nest in our yards or on our homes. Trees, utility poles, bushes and shrubs, roof eaves, window shutters, and gaps behind siding or shingles are where wasps regularly build their nests.
- TicksTicks are also small in size and are a type of arachnid. Adults have eight legs but are incapable of jumping. To find their way onto a host, they have to crawl to the top of a piece of grass or other vegetation and wait for one to brush past them that they can crawl onto. Ticks require blood meals from different hosts with a new host for each life stage; larvae, nymph, adult.
- Earwigs
- MosquitoesWhen you think about mosquitoes, you may think about how annoying they are or how itchy they can make you when they bite. You might wish there weren’t so many on your California property, but you probably don’t give much thought to the more dangerous aspects of having mosquitoes around.
- Centipedes
- Millipedes
- HornetsHornets: Hornets like to create nests in the ground in yards, flower beds, or gardens. Ground holes, the abandoned nests of small animals, the soil next to foundations, and spaces under woodpiles or fallen trees are favorite nesting spots.
- YellowjacketsWe treat include ground hornets, wasps, yellow jackets, and more. After treating them, we get rid of their nests. We also treat the eaves of structures to prevent these insects from returning.
- Stinging InsectsStinging insects are pests that regularly find their way to our California yards to nest or forage for food, making it impossible for you to enjoy your outdoor space. These pests are well-known for the stinger that extends from the hind end they use to paralyze prey and defend themselves.
- BatsCimex lectularius (Cimicidae), bed bugs are often found in the nesting areas of birds, bats, and also humans. Because they are often found in beds, sofas, and other human “nesting†areas, they have earned the common name of “bed bug.â€

- Birds
- RodentsMany homeowner’s pay for attic cleanings without realizing one of the main hazards of an infestation is the likelihood that rodents will return. And one of the primary reasons they return is the insulation in your attic.
- MiceRodents that live near people are often referred to as commensal rodents. Examples of rodents that like to live on our properties with us are mice and rats; they have learned that there will be plenty of food and shelter for them to take advantage of when people are around.
- RatsIf your home has suffered from a rodent infestation, it is likely that sections of your attic insulation are contaminated with rodent droppings (feces and urine). This is important because rodent brains—especially those of rats—are hardwired to recognize and be attracted to the scent created by feces and urine. Their sense of smell is so strong that they can actually understand the dimensions of your attic and even mark entries and exits with their urine.
- SquirrelsHomeShield Pest Control is committed to the safety of you and your home.

Learn more about our Gutterlock gutter protection services.
- VolesAt HomeShield Pest Control, our top priority is keeping your home and/or business free from pest infestations. One of the ways we do this, as part of our pest control service, is through rodent control. Rodents are common in most areas. More rural areas often deal with underground rodents (such as gophers, moles, and voles) and all areas must watch for mice and rats. The best way to keep rodents out of your home is to ensure the home has been prepared with rat and rodent exclusion techniques that keep these pests out.
- Gophers
