Our services are tailored to the San Diego community. When our pest control technicians work your local area, they are asked to consider not just generic pest control factors, but also considerations unique to greater San Diego.
San Diego is a region of micro-climates. Coastal, inland, mountain and desert climates bare on the the pest control plan that is developed for you. Each canyon and hillside has variations in temperature, humidity and pest habitats that factor into pest control. San Diego's wilderness of canyons and mountains are excellent pest nesting sites for rodents, ground and flying insects. Bees travel with the wind currents above canyons and nest in adjacent homes.

Whether we're in Poway, Carlsbad, Valley Center, La Jolla or Chula Vista, our customers say the same this, "We live on one gigantic ant hill!" The ants are not tourists, they are here year round, entering home or business in search of water, sugars or proteins. Many homeowners begin by attempting to manage ants and spiders on their own, until they realize it is a perpetual job, often without results. But really, who wants to start tackling ants, spiders, earwigs or scorpions when they wake up in the morning! Hearts has programs that we have designed for San Diego homes and San Diego businesses and San Diego landscapes.
San Diego gardens are beautiful, but can be a challenge to treat, due to the proximity of neighbors. Neighbors can be great friends, but they can also make it very difficult to manage and enjoy your property. It is not uncommon for neighbors to peek over a fence or out the window to investigate when it is being sprayed and how you might be poisoning them! When you work with Hearts, you and your neighbor can be happy with the service. Since the neighbors are looking over the fence, so are we! When we check for pests, we will peek over fences to see if the neighbors are having a similar pest problem. Commonly, our customers will tell us that the problem started “over there!” Our treatment will factor in the neighbors’ infestation.
We hope you have a good relationship with your San Diego neighbor. We offer organic pest control to keep you and your neighbor, happy! Your neighbors will have little to argue about, when they hear that you are using OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) listed products!
Our good service and good neighbor policy have created a great referral network within San Diego…. And best of all, a successful referral means a Hot Offers gift from Starbucks, one of my favorite local eateries.
How do our pest control technicians differ from the average technician?
They are trained to be pest control consulting technicians. They understand that while 80% of the job may be routine, it is the other 20% that allows them to distinguish themselves from the average exterminator. They are not simply about killing the pest. They are trained to inspect on every visit to your property, not just for the pest problem presented by the homeowner, but also potential pest control issues that may arise, due to such factors as weather, irrigation, proximity of you property to a neighbor’s infestation, and so on.

Your Hearts pest control “consulting technician” is trained to do more than spray and go. He, or she, is trained in such specialties as:
Organic Pest Control
You won't find another pest control company is Southern California that displays both the EcoSmart and EcoWise symbols. That is because Hearts Pest Management is the 1st and the ONLY company is south of San Francisco that has received certification from EcoWise Certified. This is an organization of Bay Area Governments that was set up to train pest control companies to apply pesticides in a manner and with methods, only after careful consideration to environmental impacts. We also use EcoSmart products that are beginning to take hold in the industry, but we also use other products with "minimum-risk" and "reduced-risk" labels from companies such as Nissus. We are constantly checking new products listed with OMRI labels (Organic Materials Resource Institute)

Mice control and rat control
Mice and rats can be controlled, even in San Diego. We have a very comprehensive program, start to finish, trapping, baiting (exterior only), complete exclusion to elliminate access and here you will find one of the very few companies in San Diego that will actually clean up the mess left over.
Bee control
Our company offers comprehensive control of bees, including removal of the hive and honeycomb from structures in which they are living, such at attics and wall voids.
