Riverside, CA Pest Control

Located in the southern part of California, Riverside is a beautiful city that’s ever-growing due to its year-round near-perfect weather and its affordability, growing economy, and scenic hills and valleys, which includes its prime location between beaches and mountains. According to census data from a real estate analytics company, between the years 2010 and 2017, more than 21,000 people relocated to Riverside for those very reasons.

This increase in population certainly helped the economy. It led to more jobs and more housing developments; The only thing that is considered somewhat of an issue is that it has also increased pest populations in the city’s homes and businesses.

There are many species of spiders located in southern California. While some are considered ‘harmless,’ you still want to take precautions and call pest control experts when you see a single spider in your home. Why? Because there’s likely more where that one came from, for sure.

Most spiders are venomous and not considered dangerous to humans because they tend to run away and hide when they feel threatened. However, some will attack, and that probability makes even species considered ‘harmless’ dangerous.

As a Riverside County resident, you may not be able to correctly identify the types of spiders you see in your home. Knowing the different species, you may run into will help you better understand the risk of bites and prevention strategies.

Take a look at a few of the species of spiders you have a good chance of seeing in your Riverside home:

• Brown Recluse: Color ranges from tan to gray and has a dark violin-shaped marking on its dorsum.

• Black Widow: Shiny black body with a red hourglass marking under its abdomen.

• California Trapdoor Spider: Shiny black body with a dark brown abdomen (appearance is similar to tarantulas). 

• Yellow Sac Spider: Body colors range from pale beige to yellow but can often have a greenish tinge.

At Allied Pest Control, we don’t expect you to be pest experts; that’s our job. However, knowing the spider species invading your home can benefit you. The moment you see a single spider, give us a call. We’ll come and conduct a thorough inspection to get to the root cause of your infestation and appropriately treat your home.

A termite infestation in your home can spell big trouble, as these wood-destroying insects will relentlessly chew through and digest wooden structures, possibly rendering them unsafe. 

There are many reasons why termites might take over your home, including the following:

• You have moisture problems: Leaky pipes, clogged gutters, poor ventilation, and more can attract termites by creating moist environments.
• Accessible wood: Termites feed on wood. You might find them near decks, porches, and fences, but they are also likely to be found behind walls and under your foundation, depending on the species.
• You keep firewood and debris on your property: Storing wood close to your home can provide a food source and habitat for termites, making your home more susceptible to an infestation. The same goes for wood chips from landscaping.

If you have noticed signs of a termite infestation, call us today to schedule an inspection with an Allied Pest Control service specialist and get started with termite control treatments immediately.

Riverside, California, is home to many wild animals like birds, skunks, raccoons, and opossums. Like most other pests, they might get on your property looking for food and shelter, and taking the appropriate precautions to keep them away is essential to keep your home safe.

Wild animals can do anything from causing property damage to transmitting deadly diseases like rabies. The following tips can help make your home less attractive to them:

• Keep food out of your yard: Wildlife is often drawn to food leftovers, but they are just as likely to take over gardens, bird feeders, pet food bowls, and more. 

• Keep your yard tidy and clean: The fewer opportunities for nesting they can find, the less likely they are to settle on your property. This includes overgrown trees and grassy areas.

• Consider installing fences: From placing barriers around your home to restricting access to vegetable gardens, many options are available to keep invaders out. Our service team members can advise you after conducting a home inspection.

• Seal entry points: When it comes to taking over yards and homes, pests are very resourceful. Sealing off entry points like cracks in foundations or gaps around garages can deter them.
