Economy Pest Control does not require a signed contract, unlike many of our competitors. We want our customers to be loyal and return to us because they are happy with our service and the results of our pest control, not because they are tied to a long-term contract. Since 1974, Economy Pest Control has been serving the communities in Nevada County and Placer County. To successfully manage your pests, we take a consultative approach. That means we use the right tool for each job, based on the situation.

Paul Davidson started Economy Pest Control in March of 1974. He built his reputation on providing quality service for each of his customers. The word spread quickly and the company has grown to become one of the most trusted pest control companies in Nevada and South Placer counties. Paul and his wife, Laverne, retired in 1993 and the third-generation family owned business continues to grow and remain successful. Paul's son and daughter-in-law worked hard and now Paul's grandsons and granddaughter continue the family business, where the customer experience is still our main priority and number one goal.

Western subterranean termites cause serious problems in, you guessed it, the western area of North America, which of course means California. These pests are "in plague" in parts of central and southern California. These termites are highly destructive to most woods that are used in construction. They rapidly feed on structural timbers from the inside out, which will obviously cause breakage and ruin the integrity of that piece. You can tell a subterranean termite by the honey-comb shell it leaves behind, packed with partially digested wood and excretions.

There's talk that cockroaches can survive a nuclear blast. We'll never truly know the truth about that, but we here at Economy Pest Control do know, for a fact, that we can help you with your cockroach problem, and that with our cockroach control and prevention methods, you won't be worried about those scurrying buggers for long. Cockroaches are a serious health risk to the locations that they invade. They usually transmit pathogens by contaminating food, utensils and the food preparing area. Roaches can also cause sensitive people to have allergic reactions.

Economy Pest Control is known for its residential pest control expertise: from removal to prevention, we take your bug and rodent issues serious. Our technicians are trained to apply products responsibly and accurately for desired results, and, if you're on-site, we're happy to stop for a chat to discuss what we've done to ensure your problem stays where it belongs: DONE AND GONE! We have a few types of services available to protect your home and residential structures from unwanted pests: a Monthly Control program, Every Other Month program, a Quarterly program and our One Shot program.

Do we really celebrate the ants when they come in by the dozens, marching through our kitchens and bathrooms, clutching on to crumbs or dog kibble? We don't think so! Ants can come in through the tiniest of holes and can be a real nuisance. Home traps purchased from any grocery or home supply store can work, but sometimes they actually attract more ants to them and therefore don't work nearly as efficiently as a pest control company like, say, Economy Pest Control, for example. Did you know that ants can carry, but are seldomly involved in transmission of, diseases on their little feet, diseases just like cockroaches and other pests?

We've been using Economy Pest Control for sometime. Ty has always been very professional and tackles any issue we have. Had really bad ant problem and they came back out and sprayed until the issue was resolved. Thank you all for the great service.

I have used Economy Pest Control for the past three years and Jamesy has always been my tech. He is an awesome guy!

We have been with Economy Pest Control for over 40 years and have always had the best service. If we have unexpected rodents or pests that are unwanted all we have to do is call them and they are right there with the best service. Our personal pest control person, Isaac is the best when it comes to customer service. A family own business that started three generations ago is something to be proud of. We have always felt like a valued customer and these days that says a lot. Thank you Economy Pest Control!
