Termite Treatment The San Joaquin Valley runs two termites at once: subterranean termites up from the soil and drywood termites already in the attic. Porterville homes get both. Get help Ant Control The Argentine ant runs Porterville. It trails off the citrus and the lawn, floods indoors when it gets hot or dry, and one spray only splits the colony. Get help Cockroach Control Two roaches work Porterville: the small German roach that breeds in warm kitchens, and the big American roach that comes up the drains and out of the valley heat. Get help Rodent Control Porterville is orchard and field country, and that means roof rats in the citrus and attics, plus house mice out of the fields when the harvest ends. Get help Spider Control The valley heat is black widow weather. They set up in garages, woodpiles, block walls, and meter boxes, exactly the spots a Porterville family reaches into. Get help Scorpion Control Porterville sits where the valley meets the Sierra foothills, and that foothill edge is scorpion country. They turn up in garages, block walls, and shoes. Get help Bed Bug Treatment Bed bugs hitchhike into any home, travel, secondhand furniture, a guest, and store-shelf spray only scatters them. The fix is a real inspection and heat. Get help Wasp & Hornet Removal Porterville summers bring paper wasps under the eaves and yellowjackets in the ground and walls, aggressive scavengers by the time the heat peaks. Get help Commercial Porterville business runs on food and ag: restaurants, markets, packing and storage. Each draws pests for its own reason, and each answers to an inspection. Get help
