Frequently Asked Questions


Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?

Yes! We use professional-grade products that are safe when applied correctly. We ask that pets and children remain out of treated areas until the product has fully dried (usually 1–2 hours indoors).

How is an owner-operated company different?

With El Dorado Pest Services, the owner is directly involved in your service — from initial contact to follow-up. That means you get consistent, high-quality care, not random technicians on rotation. We take pride in our work because our name and reputation are on the line with every job.

What types of pests do you treat?

We specialize in residential pest control for ants, cockroaches (including German roaches), spiders, wasps, mosquitoes, fleas, springtails, and more. We also offer perimeter and yard treatments.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes! We’re happy to provide a free quote — just give us a call, text, or use our contact form.


Will one treatment get rid of everything?

It depends. Some pests can be eliminated in one visit, while others (like roaches or fleas) may need 2–3 treatments and a follow-up plan to fully break the cycle.

Do you offer service guarantees?

Yes. If pests return within the warranty period, we’ll come back and retreat at no extra charge. Your satisfaction is our priority.

What’s the benefit of hiring a local company like El Dorado Pest Services instead of a national chain?

When you hire a local company, you’re not just another number — you're our neighbor. We live and work in the same communities we serve, so we understand the specific pests and seasonal issues that affect Sacramento, Elk Grove, and surrounding areas. Your satisfaction matters to us personally.

Do you service apartments or multi-unit properties?

Yes, we treat apartments, duplexes, and multi-family properties. Custom quotes are available for property managers or landlords.
