Why a Thorough Pest Inspection Is the Foundation of Our 5-Point Service

When it comes to keeping pests out of your home for good, the most important step isn’t the spray—it’s the inspection. At TruPest Solutions, every successful pest control plan starts with a thorough look inside and outside your home. As the first step in our 5-point pest control service, our inspection allows us to pinpoint exactly where pests are hiding, how they’re getting in, and what’s attracting them—so we can build a treatment plan that works long-term for homes in Rialto, Fontana, and surrounding areas.
🔍 What Is a Pest Control Inspection?
A pest control inspection is a detailed examination of your property—both inside and out—to identify:
Signs of active infestations (ants, cockroaches, spiders, etc.)
Entry points like cracks, gaps, weep holes, and door thresholds
Nesting sites, droppings, moisture issues, and damaged areas
Environmental factors attracting pests, such as standing water, heavy vegetation, or unsealed food
Structural vulnerabilities that increase risk of recurring infestations
Our trained professionals know exactly where to look—and what to look for—when it comes to identifying pest activity that might not be visible to the untrained eye.
🐜 Why a Proper Inspection Matters
You can't solve a problem if you don’t know where it starts. That’s why inspection is more than just a box to check—it’s the foundation for targeted, effective treatment.
A proper inspection helps us:
✅ Determine exactly which pests are present
✅ Identify entry points pests are using
✅ Find breeding and nesting areas
✅ Tailor your treatment for long-term pest prevention
✅ Minimize unnecessary chemical use by being precise
For example, if you’re seeing Argentine ants in the kitchen, our inspection might reveal they’re trailing in from irrigation boxes or under the siding. If you’re noticing spiders in the garage, we might find webs behind stored items or in wall voids near the eaves.
🛠️ Part of Our Signature 5-Point Pest Control Service
At TruPest Solutions, we take a comprehensive approach to pest control. Our 5-point service is designed to eliminate pests from the inside out—starting with inspection:
Inspection – We inspect the inside and outside of your home to find pests, entry points, and trouble areas.
Web Removal – We clear away spider webs and eggs to discourage future nesting.
Exterior Power Spray – We apply a barrier around your home’s base, walkways, windows, and light fixtures.
Lawn Granulation – We treat the yard and landscaping to target ants, ticks, fleas, and springtails.
Interior Treatment – As needed, we treat cracks, crevices, baseboards, and under sinks to eliminate pests indoors.
Without a thorough inspection, the rest of this process becomes guesswork. And guesswork doesn’t keep pests out for good.
🏡 What We Look For During a Home Inspection
