Where Castro Valley Jobs Usually Start
- Bites but no visible bugs? Begin with a visual inspection and add a dog search if it comes up empty.
- Signs in the main house and someone living in a back unit? Have both checked on the same visit.
- Renting half a duplex or an apartment near the boulevard? Notify the owner in writing first, since the owner usually arranges treatment.
- Older house with original wiring? Ask us about the power plan for heat, or a chemical and steam plan instead.
- Signs in almost every room of a detached house? Ask whether tent fumigation suits the property.
