At San Joaquin Pest Control, we know not all pest or insect problems are the same. That is why we employ what is known as IPM or integrated pest management strategies to make sure the treatment plan you use is designed to manage and eliminate unwanted pests. To do pest control right requires great attention to detail. San Joaquin Pest Control Technicians are highly skilled and trained technicians to get the job done right the first time.

Here are just a few of the things you can expect from San Joaquin Pest Control:

Integrated pest management

We will never treat your home or business without a complete understanding of the issues.

Kid & pet-friendly service

We know that our job is to eliminate pests from your home, yard, or office, we also realize there are many considerations that you must make when deciding on the best pest control company. For this reason, we always consider your family, pets in our service of your home. We understand that we may need to pick up toys, move food dishes, or other personal items BEFORE we spray. We want to make sure that we close and lock gates, doors, or other points of entry, and leave the area the same if not better than when we got there.

Annual pest treatment programs

Pest control is a lot like cleaning your home. It looks great right when you finish, but if you don’t keep up with it, it won’t be long before the mess returns. Pest control requires routine maintenance to ensure a long term solution and the best overall results. We offer a single treatment, but if you want continued control it is best to consider one of our annual pest packages.

Food Processing Pest Control FAQ

What does pest control for a food processing plant actually involve?

It combines integrated pest management with the documentation an audited facility needs: inspection of production, storage and exterior perimeter areas, monitoring devices, trend reporting and corrective-action recommendations. The goal is a pest-free environment that will hold up to a third-party audit.

Will your program stand up to an AIB or comparable third-party audit?

That is the standard we build to. Service is provided to AIB or a comparable industry certification standard, with the monitoring records, service reports and trend documentation auditors ask for. We have handled commercial and industrial accounts in the Valley for decades.

What is integrated pest management (IPM) and why does it matter for food plants?

IPM means inspecting first to identify the actual pest, entry route and contributing condition, then treating in a targeted way instead of broad spraying. In a food facility that matters both for audit compliance and for avoiding unnecessary applications near product areas.

Do you provide fumigation for stored commodity or structures?

Yes. We offer structural fumigation and commodity fumigation for food, agricultural and storage operations, handled by licensed applicators with the compliance paperwork that goes with it.

Will we get one technician or a rotating crew?

Whenever possible, one devoted technician is assigned to your account, so they know your facility's layout, problem areas and history. Continuity is the single biggest advantage on an audited account, where a rotating crew would re-learn your plant every visit.
