Kitchen pest problems we deal with in Lombard
Spraying the baseboards rarely solves a kitchen pest problem. Our Lombard visits start with an inspection of cabinets, the sink base and the spaces behind the fridge and range, then combine exclusion, sanitation advice and baits or traps placed where the pests travel.
Mouse droppings in drawers
Droppings in a drawer or on a shelf mean mice are traveling through the cabinets, often from gaps at the back or under the toe kick. We find and seal those openings and set traps.
Pantry moths and beetles in food
We inspect the pantry and cabinets, show you what to throw out and set monitors to confirm they are gone.
Worried about chemicals near food
Treatment is applied by IDPH-licensed technicians who place products away from food, dishes and areas kids and pets can reach.
Scratching in the walls or ceiling
Noise at night in the kitchen ceiling or walls often comes from mice moving between floors. We check the gaps around pipes, vents and the gas line.
Gaps around pipes and gas lines
Openings where pipes and the gas line enter cabinets are pest highways. We seal them with materials that pests can't chew through easily.
Ants trailing to the counter
Ant trails show where they come in. We follow the line to the entry point, place baits the workers carry back to the colony, and seal the gap.
Kids and pets in the home
Let us know about kids and pets before the visit so we plan placements and tell you what to keep away from.

Kitchen Pest Control questions from Lombard homeowners
How many visits will I need?
Usually an initial treatment plus follow-up visits to check monitors and adjust. Roaches often need more follow-up than mice or ants.
Why do roaches spread in multi-unit buildings?
In buildings with many units, pests move between kitchens. We seal your side and recommend talking to management.
What are the most common kitchen pests?
Mostly cockroaches, mice and ants, plus pests that live in flour, cereal and other dry goods.
What can I put in my cabinets to keep bugs away?
Airtight storage and a dry sink base are the best prevention. Repellent sachets have limited effect.
Do you use integrated pest management?
Yes, IPM is how we work in kitchens, because it uses less product where people prepare food.
Do Lombard condo associations need to approve kitchen pest control visit?
Associations usually set rules for work hours, elevators, deliveries and insurance, and many require approval for plumbing, electrical or structural changes. We provide the certificate of insurance and follow the building's rules.
Do I need a permit for kitchen pest control visit in Lombard?
It depends on the scope. Lombard's rule in short: Village requires a building permit for new structures and updates to existing structures; replacing interior doors and fixtures at the same size with no structural change needs no permit. We handle the permit when one is needed with Building Division, Community Development and Building.
Do you work in my part of Lombard?
Yes. Our crews work across Lombard — ZIP 60148 — and nearby Villa Park, Glen Ellyn, Addison.
