Mission Pest Control

Seeing a single ant in your San Diego home is often a warning sign of a larger colony nearby. Ants are highly social and organized pests, and DIY solutions typically only address the visible scouts, leaving the heart of the infestation untouched. At Mission Pest Control, we provide comprehensive ant control designed for the specific species invading your Southern California home.Our process begins with a thorough inspection to identify the ant species, locate entry points, and trace trails back...

Rats, mice, and other rodents are more than a nuisance; they are a serious threat to your property and health. They can chew through wiring, insulation, and structural wood, and they carry diseases. In San Diego, rodents often seek shelter in homes as the weather changes, looking for food, water, and warmth.Our rodent control service is a complete exclusion and elimination program. We start by conducting a detailed inspection to identify all entry points—even gaps as small as a dime for mice. Ou...

Termites are silent destroyers, causing billions in property damage each year, often before homeowners are even aware of an infestation.

We examine the interior and exterior of your property, looking for mud tubes, damaged wood, swarmers, and ot...

Mosquitoes and fleas turn your backyard from a retreat into a zone of irritation and potential health risk. Mosquitoes breed in standing water and can carry diseases, while fleas often hitch a ride indoors on pets, leading to painful infestations. In San Diego's mild climate, these pests can be a year-round concern.Our mosquito and flea control service focuses on creating a protective shield around your outdoor living spaces. For mosquitoes, we perform a property survey to identify and treat bre...

Pest problems rarely stay put, and a quick spray from the hardware store usually only deals with what you can see. Our team starts every job with an inspection of your home and yard so we can find where pests are getting in and what is drawing them there. From that, we build a treatment plan that handles the active problem and then closes off the conditions that brought it on. Whether you are dealing with insects, rodents, or something in between, you will get a clear explanation of what we are...

Calling an exterminator usually means something has already gotten into the house, the garage, or the yard. When you reach out to us, a technician comes out to find the species involved, locate the nesting or entry areas, and explain what is happening in plain terms. We then use targeted treatments suited to that pest and to the way your home is built. Our methods are chosen with your household and pets in mind, and we walk you through any preparation needed before and after a visit. Because we...

A few ants in the kitchen often mean a colony is living somewhere close by. Our ant control begins with an inspection to identify the species and trace the trails back toward the nest. We rely on baits that worker ants carry back to the colony, which is how the source gets dealt with rather than just the scouts. Where it makes sense, we also treat the perimeter and likely entry points to slow down new arrivals. Because we know which ants tend to be active in San Diego and when, we can tailor the...

Termites can spend months or years doing damage before anyone notices, which is why a regular look matters. Our technicians check the inside and outside of your home for mud tubes, damaged wood, and swarmers, and they note any conditions that invite termites in. If we find activity, we explain the options, which may include soil treatment or baiting, and we lay out what each would involve. We also recommend periodic inspections so that changes are caught early. Give us a call if you would like a...

Rats and mice can get into surprisingly small gaps, and once they are inside they chew wiring and insulation and leave droppings in hard-to-reach places. Our rodent removal starts with a careful inspection to find every point of entry, then we set tamper-resistant traps and monitoring stations where activity is heaviest. Sealing the openings is just as important as trapping, so we close gaps with steel wool, hardware cloth, and sealant to keep new rodents from moving in. We pay close attention t...

Spiders are common in homes across El Cajon, and most of the time they come in because they are chasing other insects. Our spider control service looks at the conditions around your house first, including lighting, clutter, vegetation, and gaps around doors and windows. We then treat the areas where spiders hide and travel, focusing on the outside perimeter and the spots where they tend to enter. Our approach is aimed at reducing the spider population over time, not just removing a web in the co...

Mosquitoes can make a backyard in Chula Vista hard to enjoy, especially in the evening. Our mosquito treatment begins with a look at your property to find standing water and shaded areas where adults rest during the day. We apply treatments to foliage, shrubs, and other resting spots, and we address breeding sites where we can. The products we use are applied with care around people, pets, and gardens. Treatments are usually scheduled on a seasonal basis so that protection lasts through the warm...

Gophers tunnel under lawns and gardens, pushing up mounds and damaging roots, and they can be persistent once they settle in. Our gopher removal begins with identifying active tunnels and the spots where they are feeding. We set traps placed within the tunnel system, and we check and reset them as needed until activity stops. Once the gophers are cleared, we discuss ways to keep new ones from moving into the same area. Since La Jolla yards vary a great deal in soil and landscaping, we tailor the...
