Termite Services & Treatment
Downey Pest Control termite services includes termite inspection, termite treatments and termite prevention methods that consists of three different types of treatments: chemical, physical and biological. Chemical measures involve injecting a pesticide below the ground in a band around the home. Physical measures entail installing a trench or tray filled with a toxicant or poison around the foundation of the home. Biological measures include using nematodes, fungi or bacteria to kill termites.
All three types of termite prevention techniques work at different levels, according to their own mechanisms of action, and all can be used together depending on the strength and type of infestation. For instance, if chemical treatment works and no new damage is seen for six months, then it's safe to stop using physical and biological controls.
We also offer fumigation which is a type of treatment that kills termites without using chemicals. Fumigators inject a poisonous gas directly into the soil beneath and around your home, killing all termite life stages wherever they're hiding. This process takes several hours to complete, after which the gas dissipates and you can safely return to your home. Fumigation is highly effective but requires special equipment and knowledge to ensure it's done correctly and everything is safe afterwards. Rest assured that our Downey Exterminators and Pest Control team is trained and licensed to provide you with a safe and effective fumigation service.
Another way we can treat termites is a wood treatment called a pressure-treated wood because it uses preservative chemicals to penetrate deep within its core. However, this process is potentially hazardous if not carried out correctly so choose your pest control company carefully before opting for pressure treating materials to eliminate termites from your home. You can trust and count on us to tackle your termite problem safely and effectively.
The least common type of treatment for termites we use at Downey Pest control is one called alternative or biological control. This method involves introducing beneficial insects that prey on termites to the soil in your yard, where they help keep the population at bay naturally over time. These insects need ongoing attention and treatment because when their food source (termites) is eliminated you have to be sure there's still something for them to eat. We can also provide you with beneficial nematodes or fungi preparations which are introduced into the soil in much the same way as the beneficial insects mentioned above.
Leave it to us at Pest Control Downey to assess your house or business with a free termite inspection and recommend the best and most effective termite treatment to meet your needs.

Rodent Control
|
Our Rodent control services are much more than just simple mouse or rat extermination. It's much easier for rodents to reproduce and take up residence in an unkempt property than it is to kill them off- they can produce up to 3 liters of urine over the course of one night, leaving it strong smelling and attracting other pests like cockroaches, mice or rats.
Our rodent control services involve sealing any possible entrances for rodents into your home, property or office space. Such entrance points are often where pipes, vents, sewer lines and sewers enter your house, so it's important you make sure everything is sealed up tight. Once rodents have been excluded from your property through the appropriate use of rat or mice traps, snap traps and poisons, we will help you take preventative measures to make sure they don't return. These include the setting of glue boards or simply keeping your property clean and free of debris or food sources on which rodents thrive on. |
|
Even though we perform rodent control, we also provide advice on how to keep them off your property by advising you on what prevents rodent infestations in general. Rest assured that even if you do have an infestation, Pest Control Downey is trained and equipped to provide expert-quality service every time! We offer the following services for all of our customers:
1) Rodent Exclusion & Removal - this process of creating a space around the home where rodents cannot enter is vital before installing a rodent control solution. However, the process of elimination may be applied to both rodents and any other pests that can cause damage around a building's perimeter.
2) Rodent Control - regulations require pest control professionals provide an initial inspection and a bait station placement program to protect homes from rodent infestation. This is because there are times when rodents need to be eliminated from a home or business, as they pose serious health risks not only to humans but also pets as well as adding unnecessary structural damage.
3) Pest Prevention - by following several simple steps you too can exercise good mousetrap hygiene at your property which will lower the chances of having a rodent problem in the first place. Over time, the measures we advise have been proven to be more effective at controlling rodent populations rather than exterminating them.

Bed Bugs Control
Our team uses the most advanced techniques and approach available today to help you get rid of bed bugs. With these high-tech measures and oil-based products, Downey Pest Control will make sure you never see a bed bug again!
Bed bugs are not harmful to humans but they can cause severe allergic reactions in people who are susceptible. They are mainly found in the mattresses, sofas, carpets or cracks in walls. Bed bugs feed on human blood at night and then sneak back into their hiding places during the day. People usually get bed bugs after traveling because bed bugs can hitch a ride home in your clothes or bags.
The good news is that bed bugs don't carry any diseases and only blood feeders; therefore, you cannot get sick from them. The average person will be bitten 10-20 times before developing an allergic reaction to it.
Bed bug bites often take 3-5 days to manifest as welts similar to mosquito bites because they are extremely allergic to the bed bugs saliva. If you want to find out if you have bed bugs, look for the following signs:
1) Bed Bug Bites
2) Dark spots on your sheets from their droppings.
3) Tiny rust-colored stains on your sheets from their dried blood.
4) Smell a musky or musty smell in your room which is a sign of an infestation as well as seeing bedbugs themselves crawling up your walls and around windows at night.
If you suspect that there might be a bed bug problem in your home, give Pest Control Downey a call today at (562) 684-6040 – we'll come to your property, conduct a free inspection and then recommend how best to eliminate them!

Ant Control
Ants are a type of social insect that belongs to the family formicidae. They may be more prevalent in the United States than any other location on Earth. If you're not sure how to get rid of ants, don't worry! Downey Pest Control has a variety of methods and products at our disposal for getting rid of pesky ants.
The best way to deal with ants would be to identify where they're coming from. For example, if they've established themselves in your home, think about what attracts them there- food particles that have spilled onto the floor, crumbs that have fallen below your cabinets or cracks in your windowsills can all cause an ant infestation. Once you've identified the places where ants are present, Pest Control Downey can take it from there!
Ants are generally attracted to sweet foods and will eat almost anything that contains sugar. In the event you have a large ant problem in your home or business, there's a good chance they've found their way into an item from one of the following categories:
1) Sweets and Sugars – such as soda and juice boxes, candy/cake frosting, jams and jellies, etc.
2) Fats – fats naturally attract ants since they're high in calories which makes them easy for ants to digest; often times we come across food with oils spilled on the floor such as salad dressing or cooking oil. These items tend to be eaten up very quickly.
3) Spices – spices are typically eaten by ants because they come with sugar; for example, here in Pest Control Downey we came across a case where ants had infested someone's spice rack and were destroying the containers of their favorite spices. The problem was that these jars contained sugar hidden inside them which made them an easy target for hungry ants!
4) Baked Goods – If you're running low on supplies for baking cakes or pies, bring out your Pest Control Downey service plan to keep ants away! We'll put down special baits around your house so it will be harder than ever for ants to reach their goal of finding something tasty to eat.
5) Animal Foods – do you have pets at home? If you have a pet that eats anything from meat to cheese, the ants will definitely be attracted to these food scraps.
6) Other Foods – there are various types of foods which play host to ants; for example, did you know that ants are known for their love of fruits and vegetables? That's why if your salad or fruit tray isn't covered up, it could lead to an ant infestation!
You can always count on Pest Control Downey to take care of any insect problem you might be having- even pests that are hard to get rid of like the infamous Argentine Ants! Call us today at (562) 684-6040!

Pest Control FAQs
How often do I need to treat my wood framed house for termites?
We recommend treating your wood framed house every 5-7 years depending on the severity of the termite infestations. We offer free termite inspections and a free quote if we determine you are in need of an extermination or other termite treatment.
How can I tell if ants are living in my property?
Ants usually reside outdoors because they require a humid environment with access to water for survival. If there is an invasion, it will typically be outside near gaps or cracks in the wall, anywhere where the humidity and mild climate is good for growth. In this case, you can use a household cleaner with citrus to make your whole house less attractive to ants.
If you have an indoor ant problem then look around for any food that may have been dropped that they could have eaten as even just a crumb can cause them to swarm. To remedy this you must seal up all entrances free from cracks and crevices so the ants cannot reach inside the building which involves caulking exterior joints as well as those indoors such as under sink cabinets and baseboards.
How do you keep spiders out of your home?
There are many ways to control spiders around your home or business, which range from basic exclusion practices (blocking points of entry) to insecticides.
