How to Rid Your Redmond Home of Cockroaches

Most homeowners agree that cockroaches are among the most revolting pests that can turn up indoors. Nobody wants to flip on the kitchen light and watch one dart across the floor. These brown, oval insects love warmth and moisture, so they gravitate toward kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms. Around Redmond, the German cockroach and the Oriental cockroach are the two species we run into most.

Cockroaches aren't just unpleasant to look at; they spread illnesses like salmonella, dysentery, and typhoid fever. You can reduce your risk of contamination by removing excess moisture, keeping surfaces clean, and sealing gaps around your foundation. Even then, the surest way to clear an infestation is professional cockroach control from Guard Pest Control. Our pest exterminators have the tools and the experience to treat roaches.

The Secret to Rodent Control in Redmond

Redmond sees its share of pests, from spiders to cockroaches to stinging insects, but rodents are one of the most common problems in local homes. Mice and rats come in all shapes and sizes, and they share one frustrating trait: front teeth that never stop growing. These pests are constantly gnawing and are likely to chew through walls, insulation, furniture, and electrical wires. Because they're nocturnal and breed quickly, they're tough to control once they've settled in.

Good rodent control starts with taking away whatever draws them in. Seal up food sources, clear out clutter, and fix excess moisture to make your property far less inviting. Prevention only goes so far, though, so when rodents invade, the Guard Pest Control team is here with proven rodent elimination and exclusion work.

Richard completed our work order to get rid of roof rats (mice that climb yuck). Every time he came out for service he was kind, considerate, clear, professional, and communicative about what the goal of each visit was and checked out with me before leaving. He explained next steps and immediately got the ball rolling with his team and our property manager. The scheduling staff was communicative, using all forms of contact to book the next visit right away. They also communicated directly with our property manager. I highly recommend Richard and Guard Pest Control.

I was very impressed with the great customer service when I called. Clifford was very professional, courteous and understood my pest problems! He set me up right away with an appointment. When Richard got to my house, he was also professional, courteous and very thorough. He sprayed and put out bait traps and we are all set up for quarterly spray and mice traps. Great company and I'm so glad I called!

Carpenter Ant Control

Carpenter ants tunnel into damp or decaying wood, carving out galleries that can weaken your home over time. They don't actually eat the wood, but finding them usually points to a moisture problem like a leak or water damage.

Redmond's wooded lots and wet seasons leave local homes open to hidden carpenter ant infestations. DIY sprays tend to fail because the nests sit deep inside walls or structural wood where they're hard to reach. Professional treatment relies on accurate species identification, targeted products, and moisture management to eliminate the colony and prevent it from coming back.

Look for:

  • Large ants indoors
  • Rustling sounds inside the walls
  • Sawdust-like piles (frass)
  • Winged ants indoors
Odorous House Ant Control

Odorous house ants are a classic spring and early-summer nuisance. These tiny black ants march along baseboards and countertops and love kitchens and bathrooms. Crush one, and you'll get the smell they're named for, a rotten, coconut-like odor plenty of Redmond homeowners know well. They thrive in damp spots and build multiple colonies indoors and out, which makes DIY control an uphill battle.

Professional treatment matters because it includes:

  • Accurate identification of the ant species
  • Strategic bait placement indoors and out
  • Addressing the moisture and food that attract them
  • Sealing entry points to stop re-infestation
Rodent Control

Rodents like mice, rats, moles, and voles are anything but harmless. They're always hunting for food and shelter, and they can carry diseases that put your household at risk. Infestations build fast, and in Redmond, they can do real damage before you ever spot them. Guard's rodent control services focus on ending active infestations, sealing entry points, and fixing the conditions that invite them in.

Watch for:

  • Droppings or urine stains
  • Gnaw marks on wires or furniture
  • Scratching sounds in walls or ceilings
  • Burrows or tunnels near the house

Acting early with a professional helps protect your family from health risks and your home from damage.

Wasp Nest Removal

Wasps are not the kind of neighbors you want. Stinging insects like wasps and hornets become dangerous when they nest close to the house, especially when disturbed, and their aggression makes them a real concern for Redmond families. Our exterminators handle wasp nest removal from start to finish:

  • Locating wasp and hornet nests
  • Removing nests safely with minimal risk
  • Putting prevention measures in place to protect your family
Mosquito Control

Warm, wet Pacific Northwest summers give mosquitoes plenty of places to breed, and a yard full of them can ruin your time outdoors. Our mosquito control targets the standing water and shaded resting spots where they multiply, knocking down the current population and keeping the bites in check throughout mosquito season.

Our mosquito control includes:

  • Inspecting for breeding sites and standing water
  • Treating shaded resting areas around your yard
  • Seasonal service that keeps the numbers down
Bed Bug Exterminator

Few pests unsettle people like bed bugs. A pest problem is stressful enough, and finding them in your bed is worse, but you don't have to deal with it alone. If bed bugs turn up on your mattress, our team delivers trusted treatment for homes across Redmond. As a dependable bed bug exterminator, we provide:

  • Thorough inspections that pinpoint all bed bug activity
  • Powerful treatments aimed at complete elimination
  • The peace of mind of knowing your bed is bug-free again
