🏘️ If you manage an HOA or multi-unit property in SoCal — this one's for you.

Most pest problems in shared communities don't start as a building problem. They start in one unit, spread through shared plumbing and wall voids, and by the time residents are reporting it, you're already playing catch-up.

We put together a full guide covering everything property managers and HOA boards need to know — from how unit-to-unit spread actually works, to what a commercial pest program covers, to the questions you should be asking any vendor before signing a contract.

If pest control has been a recurring headache for your community, this is worth 10 minutes. 👇

HOA boards and SoCal property managers: stop unit-to-unit pest spread before it becomes a liability. Preventative pest control programs for SD, OC & Riverside.

Seeing brown recluse spider videos all over your feed lately? 🕷️

If you're in San Diego, Orange County, or Riverside, here's the reassuring truth: brown recluses don't actually live in California.

That scary brown spider in your garage is almost always a harmless look-alike — but there are two SoCal spiders worth knowing (and one of them is on nearly every patio right now).

We broke down how to tell them apart, so you can stop guessing.
Read it here 👇 and save it for the next garage scare.

Are brown recluse spiders in Southern California? Almost never. Here's which SoCal spiders you're actually seeing — and which ones matter.

Happy Independence Day, Southern California! 🇺🇸

America turns 250 today, and that's a milestone worth celebrating. Two and a half centuries of freedom, family, and fireworks.

We've only been protecting SoCal homes since 1982, but we share the same values this holiday is built on: community, hard work, and taking care of the people (and places) you love.

From everyone at AG Pest, we hope your 4th is safe, sunny, and pest-free. Enjoy it, San Diego, Orange County, and Riverside!

3 things property managers quietly can't stand about their pest company 👇

We hear the same thing from PMs and HOA boards across SoCal:

→ "I never get documentation." No notes, no photos, nothing to show the board or prove a unit was treated.
→ "I can't reach them." Slow callbacks while a tenant complaint sits open.
→ "I'm locked in." A contract that's easy to sign and hard to leave.

Pest control for your property shouldn't feel like that.

We document every visit, answer when you call, and earn the renewal — we don't trap you in it.

Seeing more ants this week? You're not along! 🐜

When SoCal temps climb past the mid-80s, ant colonies go into overdrive — and they head straight for the most dependable water source around: your kitchen, your bathrooms, your pipes.

What's actually happening in June:
→ Heat drives Argentine ants indoors looking for moisture
→ Tiny foundation and window gaps become highways
→ One scout trail today can become a steady line by next week

The fix isn't a stronger spray from the store — it's treating the colony and sealing the entry points, not just the ants you can see.

Save this for the next time you spot a trail.

Summer is peak pest season in Southern California—and most infestations don’t start overnight.

☀️ June: Argentine ants begin pushing indoors for water.
☀️ July: Wasp and yellowjacket activity ramps up.
☀️ August: Rodent pressure, spider activity, and palm weevil risk reach their peak.

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear? That pests show up because a home is dirty.

In reality, summer pests are usually looking for three things:
✔ Water
✔ Shelter
✔ Easy access

A dripping hose bib, tree branch touching the roof, or small gap around a utility line can be all it takes.

Our latest guide breaks down exactly what Southern California homeowners can expect from June through August across San Diego, Orange County, and Riverside County—including a month-by-month pest activity calendar and simple prevention tips that actually work.

Summer is when one unit's pest problem becomes everyone's problem. 🏢

In multi-unit properties across Southern California, heat pushes pests deeper indoors — and shared walls, pipe chases, and tenant turnover make it easy for them to travel from one unit to the next.

Here's what we see every summer:
→ Ants and roaches following moisture into kitchens and shared utility spaces
→ One untreated unit quietly seeding the units around it
→ Small issues compounding before anyone files a complaint

A scheduled, documented program costs less than reactive call-outs — and it protects your reputation with residents.

We work around resident schedules, document every visit, and keep you in the loop.

🌴 If your palm trees have been pruned recently — this is worth 2 minutes of your time.

Palm weevil infestations in San Diego, Orange County, and Riverside move fast. Most of the damage happens inside the tree, weeks before anything looks wrong from the outside. By the time fronds start wilting or the crown collapses, saving the palm is usually no longer possible.

We put together a full breakdown of what's actually happening by season, which palm species are most at risk across SoCal, and what the treatment window looks like month by month. 👇

Palm weevil infestations are often fatal by the time symptoms appear. AG Pest explains treatment timing, at-risk palm species, and professional control programs across SoCal.

May is a critical treatment month for palm weevils in Southern California.

The weevil's lifecycle means there's a specific window when treatment is most effective — and it's right now.

We treat palms for weevil infestations across San Diego, Orange County, and Riverside. If you have palms on your property — or manage a community with palms — reach out now.
