Pests We Target in Palo Alto Commercial Properties

Rodents
Mice and rats can damage infrastructure, chew through wiring, and spread germs—especially in older buildings and warehouse spaces.

Ants
Ants often invade kitchens, breakrooms, and common areas. Without professional intervention, they can become recurring problems.

Cockroaches
Cockroaches thrive in commercial kitchens, restrooms, and storage rooms. These unsanitary pests can quickly damage your business’s reputation.

Spiders & Crawling Insects
Most spiders and other crawling insects may not pose a health threat, but their presence makes any workspace look unkempt. We focus on exclusion and proactive treatment.

Burrowing Wildlife
Landscaped areas in Palo Alto are often targeted by gophers, voles, moles and ground squirrels which createhazards and damage irrigation systems.
Eco-Friendly Commercial Pest Control in Palo Alto
At Smith’s Pest Management, we believe in a sustainable, science-backed approach.
That’s why we rely on Integrated Pest Management (IPM)—a method that emphasizes prevention, low-impact treatments, and strategic monitoring.
Here’s what our IPM process includes:
1
Comprehensive Property Inspections
We evaluate the entire property—indoors and out—identifying pest entry points, harborage zones, and environmental conditions contributing to infestations.
2
Customized Pest Control Plans
We create a plan that addresses your property’s specific challenges, from sealing access points to deploying targeted treatments and setting up routine monitoring.
3
Ongoing Monitoring & Transparent Reporting
We install traps and monitoring systems to detect pest activity between visits and provide clear, organized reporting for your records or compliance needs.
