About Us

A local Hermosa Beach team for pests, bees and wildlife

We started in 2011 as a two-truck bee and rodent company working out of Hermosa Beach. Today we handle everything from honeybee hives in walls and roof rats in attics to bats, snakes and raccoons, always with the same rule: find out how the animal got in and fix that, too.

Years protecting Hermosa Beach and South Bay homes.

Beach homes have their own pest problems: palm-tree roof rats, damp crawlspaces and salt air that eats cheap screens. We know them well.

Our Mission

Solve pest problems at the source, humanely, with prices people can trust.

Our Promise

The person who inspects your home does the work and stands behind it.

Our Approach

Remove, seal, clean: why our fixes last

Trapping a rat or vacuuming a swarm is the easy part. The real work is finding the gap at the roofline, the open eave return or the torn crawlspace vent that let it in, and closing it with materials that survive coastal weather. That is where most of our time goes, and it is why many of our customers only need to call us once.

What Clients Say

What our South Bay customers say

“Bees had moved into the soffit above our garage and were getting into the house through a light fixture. The tech found the comb with a thermal camera, saved the bees and had the wall closed up the same afternoon. No mess left behind.”

Dana R.

Homeowner, Hermosa Beach

“We had rats in the attic two winters in a row. They found three gaps the last company missed, sealed everything with steel mesh and came back twice to check traps. It has been quiet ever since.”

Marcus T.

Homeowner, Manhattan Beach

“A rattlesnake was coiled right by our front door. They were here in under an hour, caught it safely and showed us where it was hiding in our rock garden. Calm, professional and fast.”

Linda K.

Homeowner, Rancho Palos Verdes

“Bats had been roosting in the vent of our office building. They explained the legal timing, put up one-way doors and cleaned the guano. Clear pricing and great communication.”

Kevin O.

Business owner, El Segundo

Yes, whenever it is safe. If the colony is accessible and not dangerously defensive, we vacuum the bees alive and relocate them to a local beekeeper. We also remove all of the comb so new swarms are not attracted to the same spot.

Simple jobs like a hanging swarm or a single wasp nest start around $149 to $189. Wall hives, rodent programs and wildlife removal typically run $300 to $1,100, and full exclusion or attic restoration is quoted after an inspection. Phone estimates are free.

Yes. Bats cannot be killed or poisoned. They are removed with one-way exclusion devices, and exclusion is scheduled outside the maternity season when young bats cannot fly yet.

We answer emergency calls on Sundays for stinging insects near people, snakes in or near the house and animals inside living space. Regular appointments run Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 7 PM.

Yes. Our Year-Round Protection plan covers common household insects with quarterly exterior service and free callbacks between visits.
