North Highlands grew up beside the former McClellan Air Force Base, and many homes date from the 1950s and 1960s. These older single-story homes often have crawl spaces, wood siding and worn door seals, which let in mice, cockroaches and subterranean termites. Duplexes and attached homes can share walls, so German cockroaches and mice may spread between units.
Open lots and the land around McClellan Park give rodents and outdoor cockroaches room to live close to homes. Hot summers drive Argentine ants inside for water. The technician inspects the house and yard, explains what is causing the problem, and writes up the treatment and price before any work starts.
