What Our Customers Say
Here’s what our customer have to say about our services.
A pest inspection in Pasadena starts when you know something isn’t right, but you don’t know what you’re dealing with.
Sometimes it’s obvious. A wasp nest under the eaves. Ants across the kitchen counter early in the morning. In those cases, the next step is treatment.
Other times it isn’t clear. Scratching in the walls. Droppings in the garage. A gnawed corner. Activity with no clear source.
That’s where an inspection comes in.
With a pest control plan and inspection, we identify the pest, find where it’s coming from, and show you what to do before anything gets treated.

What We Do During the Inspection
We inspect the property inside and out as needed. That can include attics, crawlspaces, rooflines, and other hard-to-access areas when the situation calls for it.
We’re looking for two things: the obvious signs and the hidden ones.
Obvious signs include droppings, shed wings, gnaw marks, mud tubes, webbing, and live insects. Hidden conditions are what usually matter more. These include entry points around pipes and utilities, gaps under door sweeps, moisture collecting or pooling in odd places, and landscaping that pests use as direct pathways to the structure.
We also check the areas most homeowners and many technicians miss:
- Behind appliances
- Inside plumbing and electrical chases
- Roofline transitions and flashing
- Siding gaps and construction seams
- Subarea vents and crawlspace openings
- Attic and gable vents
- Roof returns and utility penetrations
- Chimney and flue transitions
Most rodent issues in Pasadena and the West San Gabriel Valley trace back to two or three of these locations that were never inspected.
At the end, you get a clear answer. Here’s the pest. Here’s the entry point. Here’s what’s pulling it in. Here’s what we recommend. Nothing serious, we’ll tell you that too.

When to Schedule a Pest Inspection
An inspection makes sense when you don’t have a clear answer.
Scratching in the walls, attic, or ceiling and you can’t identify what it is
Droppings or gnaw marks you don’t recognize
Pest activity but you’re not sure how bad it is
It’s also useful in transition situations.
Moving into a home and want to know what’s already there
Listing a home and want to handle pests before the buyer’s inspector finds them.
An inspection saves money compared to guessing wrong.
How Long Does a Pest Inspection Take
Most inspections take between 30 minutes and 3 hours, depending on the pest, the scope, and the property.
Most are an hour or less.
Larger homes, crawlspaces, attics, or complex rodent work take longer. We take the time to find the actual source rather than rushing and missing it.
Why Pasadena Homes Require a Real Inspection
You get a clear explanation and documented findings.
- A verbal walk-through of what we found and where
- A written summary with recommendations
- Photos for rodent or complex cases showing entry points, nesting, and contributing conditions
You’re never guessing why something is being recommended.
Pest Inspection Pricing
The inspection is either free or a flat fee.
If you book treatment, we apply the fee to the job. If you don’t, you’ve paid for a professional diagnosis with no obligation.
Common Pests We Inspect For
Ants, cockroaches, spiders, rodents, fleas, ticks, mites, silverfish, earwigs, wasps, and more. We also check for moisture damage and wood issues that might signal something bigger.
Why Pasadena Homes Require a Real Inspection
Older Pasadena homes carry their own patterns.
Craftsman bungalows in Bungalow Heaven hide rodent runs above lath-and-plaster ceilings. Spanish Revival homes in Madison Heights collect spiders inside stucco wall voids. Mid-century homes near the foothills usually have crawlspace access that allows rodent movement beneath the structure.
Raised foundations and crawlspaces create protected travel routes. Attic vent systems often allow access if not properly screened. Tile roofs create transition zones pests use to move. Irrigation keeps soil active along the foundation year-round.
A proper inspection accounts for how the structure is built, not just what pest is present.
What Happens Next After Inspection
You decide.
Some customers book a treatment the same day. Others take time to think.
If you move forward, the inspection drives the plan. No starting from scratch.
If you don’t, you leave with clear findings and documented recommendations.
Real Estate Pest Inspections for Buyers in Pasadena
Inspections carry the most value in real estate situations.
A buyer who discovers pest activity during their walkthrough usually negotiates harder. A seller who handles it first controls the conversation.
If you’re selling a foothill home, buyers will ask about pest and wildlife pressure. A documented inspection answers that before it becomes an issue.
If you’re buying, an inspection shows you exactly what you’re walking into and gives you leverage if anything serious turns up.
