The term “pest control” can mean different things to different people. We’ve come to find that when many companies say they do pest control, it means that they only take care of the most common household pests. In the Temecula area, this typically means ants and spiders. This type of company will come to your home and spray around the perimeter of your home and in any areas where you may experience pest problems.
When you saw the title of this blog post, you may have thought to yourself, “Why is a pest control company talking about dry rot repair?” That’s actually a great question. On the surface, pest control and dry rot repair don’t seem like related services, but in fact, they are.
Last month, we wrote about how Knockout Pest Control offers termite inspections in Murrieta and Temecula. We would be remiss if we didn’t mention that we also do termite inspections in Fallbrook. In fact, our shop is located right in between Temecula and Fallbrook (in Rainbow), making it easy to service the residents of Fallbrook as well as those in the Temecula Valley.
No homeowners want to hear that their house has termites. Those small bugs certainly do a lot of costly damage to a home if they aren’t taken care of quickly. They can damage the wood structures within your home, causing them to need to be repaired or replaced.
It’s been a while since we’ve highlighted a customer review, so we wanted to share with you a comment we received recently from a customer named David. David left us a five-star rating on Yelp, along with a short review. Here’s his unedited review of our company: “Extremely prompt service. Thorough and informative. Technician was polite, took Covid precautions, and arrived on time.”
In Temecula, most of the pest problems homeowners and business owners tend to experience have to do with insects and spiders. Most of our clients for whom we provide regular pest control service hire us to keep their homes and businesses free from things like ants, spiders of all types, and cockroaches. However, some of our clients also need rodent control—especially those who live in the more rural areas of Temecula.
Doing pest control well in Temecula is no easy task! We have our share of stubborn pests here, such as ants, spiders, and a variety of rodents. None of these pest problems can be taken care of with a “one and done” type of treatment. Rather, they are issues that homeowners and business owners need to stay on top of.
Now that we’re at the end of Spring and moving into Summer, the Temecula, Murrieta, and Fallbrook areas are in the thick of the home buying and selling season. During this time of year, our pest control company finds itself doing a lot of termite inspections for real estate transactions.
The pests common to the Temecula, Murrieta, and Fallbrook areas are relentless—especially the ants! If you’ve lived here for any length of time, you’ve likely experienced at least one ant infestation. You probably have some sort of pest control spray in your house for the next time you spot the infamous ant trail going from the outside of your home into your kitchen. They seem to always show up at the most inopportune times—like when you’re on vacation or when you’re about to have company over.
If you’ve lived in Temecula for any length of time, you’ve likely seen a lot of different trucks and vans driving around town advertising pest control services. Some are from the larger national pest control franchises, while others are locally owned and operated small businesses. It can be tempting to call one of the well-known names in pest control, but that’s not always the best route.
