Los Angeles Pest Control

Pest control costs in Los Angeles vary by service type. A one-time general pest control treatment typically ranges from $150–$300. Monthly or quarterly service plans start around $49–$89/month and provide the best long-term value. Specialty services like termite treatment ($800–$2,500+), bed bug treatment ($300–$700), and rodent exclusion ($400–$1,200) are priced after a free inspection. We provide upfront quotes with no hidden fees.

Yes. We use EPA-registered, family-safe products applied by licensed technicians. For most treatments, you and your family can return home 30–60 minutes after the technician finishes, once treated surfaces have dried. We always ask about children, pets, and any sensitivities before selecting products. If you have specific concerns, just let your technician know.

Yes — same-day service is available 7 days a week for most Los Angeles locations, subject to technician availability. If you call before noon, we can typically have a technician at your door the same day. For pest emergencies like rodent intrusions or large infestations, we prioritize same-day dispatch.

Los Angeles's year-round warm climate means pests are active 12 months a year. The most common calls we receive are for Argentine ants (nearly universal in LA), roof rats, German cockroaches (especially in apartments), subterranean and drywood termites, bed bugs, silverfish, and occasional black widow spiders. Gophers are common in San Fernando Valley and Westside neighborhoods with lawns.

Most standard pest control treatments take 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on property size and pest type. Bed bug treatments take 2–4 hours. Termite fumigation (tenting) requires you to vacate for 2–3 days. Rodent exclusion work typically takes 2–3 hours. Your technician will give you a realistic time estimate when they arrive.

For general pest control, we recommend clearing under sinks, pulling appliances slightly away from walls, and putting away dishes and food in sealed containers. For cockroach treatment, empty lower cabinet shelves. For rodent control, no special prep is needed. We'll give you a specific preparation checklist based on your service when you schedule your appointment.

Given LA's year-round pest pressure, most homeowners benefit from quarterly service (every 3 months). Monthly service is recommended for homes with active infestations, food businesses, or properties near open spaces or canyons. One-time treatments are available but pests in LA tend to return without ongoing prevention.
