Pest Control

With the coming of spring, you may notice an increase in the number of critters and insects in and around the community. One of the most common occurring insect this area is the ant. The most common ant found in Southern California is the Argentine Ant. Large colonies of this species can be found yards and common slope areas near moisture sources such as sprinklers, valve boxes and standing water. These ants feed on a variety of foods like meats, eggs, vegetable oils and sweets. In some cases, these will migrate into homes through the cracks and voids in doorways and garages.

If you notice that ants have made it into your home, the community pest control vendor can provide spraying at a discount rate on days they are in the community taking care of the common areas. If you would like more information about these services, please give them a call at 800-344-6567 or visit them on the web at www.animalpest.com.
