Free Pest Evaluation
We walk the property with you — exterior perimeter, interior, garage, any crawl space or attic concerns — and discuss what pest pressures your specific home faces.
Tailored Service Plan
We recommend the services that actually make sense for your property — not a generic package. A maintenance program, a one-time treatment, or a combination.

Common Questions
Residential Pest Control FAQs for Cupertino
What pests should a Cupertino homeowner expect over a full year?
Argentine ants after the first heavy rains from November onward and again in the dry heat of August; drywood termite swarmers on warm evenings in late summer and fall; yellowjackets peaking August through October; roof rats moving into attics as nights cool in autumn; and black widows in garages year-round. The mild winter means very little of it truly stops, because Cupertino rarely gets the sustained cold that ends a season elsewhere. That is why most homes here do better on an interval than on emergency calls.
Does one company handle both termites and general pests for a Cupertino house?
Yes — structural pest control and general pest control fall under the same California license, and we hold SPCB Lic. #9119 for both. That matters on a Cupertino house because the findings connect. A rodent entry at a fascia gap sits right next to the weathered fascia where drywood termites got in, and the trellis carrying ants into the wall is also the wood-to-soil contact on the WDO report. Splitting the work between vendors means nobody reads the whole structure.
We just bought a 1970s house in Cupertino — what should we handle first?
Read the WDO report from the transaction and clear anything still open on it, especially Section 2 conditions the seller was not required to correct. Then walk the roofline and trim branches back from the eaves, because Cupertino's mature orchard-era trees are the main roof rat bridge in the city. Check whether the house is slab or raised floor, since that determines whether there is a crawl space to inspect at all. After that, a scheduled interval is more useful than reacting to whatever appears first.
