Antelope sits just north of Citrus Heights on the Sacramento and Placer county line, a newer suburb of slab-on-grade tract homes built largely from the 1990s onward. The construction is younger than the rest of the area, but the Sacramento Valley pest pressure is the same. Argentine ants nest in the landscaping and irrigation and trail indoors through the dry summer looking for water, using the slab edge, stucco weep screed, and plumbing penetrations that every tract home has, and the young, sunny yards suit yellowjackets that peak in late summer.
The open, developing edges around Antelope keep rodents and spiders in play. House mice and roof rats move in off the fields, fence lines, and greenbelts, and the western black widow settles into garages, meter boxes, and block walls. Subterranean termites work the slabs from the soil, and standing water in the newer yards and drainage swales breeds mosquitoes through the warm season.
An experienced local exterminator treats an Antelope home at the source: a treated exterior perimeter at the slab and weep screed, Argentine ant baiting, wasp watch at the eaves, rodent exclusion at the garage and roofline, and termite monitoring.
