Our Eco-Friendly Pest Control Process for Hayward, CA
At Smith’s Pest Management, we know you want pests gone, but you don’t want to spray your home or yard with harsh chemicals.
That’s why we use a safer approach. Our methods are tough on pests but safe for your family, pets, and pollinators.
We follow eco-friendly, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices that work with the environment, not against it.
Here’s how we do it:
1
Property Inspection
We check your entire property. That includes attics, crawlspaces, and garden beds. We find where pests are getting in, where they’re active, and what’s attracting them. If needed, we use tools like glue boards or motion sensors to track movement.
2
Targeted Treatment
Based on what we find, we build a plan. That might mean sealing entry points, setting traps, or treating nests. We use low-toxicity methods that are safe and effective.
3
Prevention and Follow-Up
We follow up and adjust as needed to keep pests from coming back. You’ll always know what we’re doing and why.

What Our Customers Have To Say
Smith’s Pest Management is trusted by over 5,500 happy customers.

“ My chicken coop was put up five years ago. I went out one night and almost had a heart attack because there was probably 100 rats in with the chickens. I called Smith’s and the problem was solved quickly. No more rats!”

“ For years I’ve raised all the produce in my garden that we eat in our home. One year we started having gopher problems. When I contacted a local pest control company they wanted to use poison which we did not agree with. Smith’s offered a non-toxic and effective approach to getting rid of my gophers, moles, and rats. ”

“ They came out to one of our properties at Scotts Valley. It’s a large property of 110 houses and they have managed it for almost three years. It takes gopher control off my plate, and my clients don’t have to worry about it. ”
