Finding pests in your home or business raises two immediate questions: what are you dealing with, and what will resolve it? Harbor Pest Control has helped San Diego County property owners answer those questions since 1948. Bonita customers can rely on our local, family-operated company for routine prevention, active infestations, and problems requiring specialized treatment.

Bonita's hillside canyons, horse properties, and mature landscaping are part of what makes the area feel like a retreat from the city, but those same elements also attract ants, spiders, mice, and other pests. And once they've arrived, it's only a matter of time before they find a way indoors.
Harbor protects more than 12,000 San Diego homes, and every visit starts with a free inspection. One of our trusted technicians will explain what they found and then walk you through the solution.
Every home benefits from an ongoing, preventative plan rather than a one-time fix. We'll recommend a visit schedule that fits your property, treating the exterior regularly and adding interior visits as needed.
Our General Pest Plan comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If covered pests show up between scheduled visits, we come back and re-treat at no extra charge.

For San Diego homeowners facing pest challenges year-round, Harbor Pest Control offers our dependable home pest control plan. We begin with an initial treatment to eliminate current infestations, then provide regular follow-up services to keep pests like ants, spiders, and more out of your home for good!
Pests Covered: Ants, Cockroaches, Crickets, Earwigs, Fleas, Pill Bugs, Silverfish, Sow Bugs, and Spiders
* We also offer monthly and bi-monthly plans, and you can also add coverage for rodents and stinging insects if needed. Keep in mind that extra fees may apply.
Bonita is mostly residential, but the offices, clinics, stores, and storage facilities nearby deal with pests too: ants in the break room, rodents in a feed store, cockroaches in a commercial kitchen. That's where Harbor's commercial pest control services come in.
We inspect inside and out, then build a program tailored to the property and industry.
Harbor follows Integrated Pest Management principles: inspect and prevent first, treat only where it's actually needed.

Here's how Harbor handles termites, bed bugs, and stinging insects for Bonita properties.
Bonita properties can see both drywood and subterranean termite infestations, with homes backing up to canyons, greenbelts, or heavily irrigated yards more prone to subterranean activity.
Mud tubes along the foundation point to subterranean activity, while pellet piles usually signal drywood. Discarded wings can turn up with either.
Left alone, either type can damage structural wood for years before it becomes noticeable, since the activity occurs out of sight.
Our termite control services start with a free inspection to confirm the type of termite you're dealing with. For subterranean termites, we typically install Termidor® HP around the perimeter of the structure to intercept and eliminate termites. For drywood termite infestations, we offer whole-home fumigation, localized spot treatments, and preventative Borate applications.
If you're concerned about termite activity in your home or business, contact Harbor Pest Control to schedule your free termite inspection.
Bed bugs hitch rides on luggage, furniture, and clothing, so they can turn up in the cleanest homes and businesses.
Bed bug bites alone don't confirm an infestation. When we inspect properties for bed bug activity, our inspectors look for live insects, eggs, shed skins, and dark spotting around mattresses, frames, and baseboards.
If bed bugs are detected, Harbor's bed bug treatment options include conventional treatment with follow-up visits to confirm the infestation is gone, or whole-home fumigation. We'll walk you through the next steps and provide instructions on preparing for treatment.
If you've woken up with unexplained bites or noticed other signs of bed bugs, contact Harbor Pest Control for a free bed bug inspection.
Structural fumigation is the option most Bonita properties need. It reaches drywood termites, bed bugs, cockroaches, and even rodents infesting inaccessible areas. The process usually takes about three days, start to finish.
We also operate a permitted fumigation chamber for antique furniture, heirlooms, artwork, and other delicate belongings.
Harbor's fumigation services extend further still. We're San Diego's only licensed methyl bromide fumigator, operating a USDA-certified chamber for commodity fumigation of produce, lumber, and imported goods, as well as marine fumigation for boats and vessels requiring biosecurity clearance.
Bees and wasps favor sheltered spots on a property: under eaves, inside wall voids, beneath patio covers, in attics. A nest near your front door or pool isn't just annoying; it's a real risk, especially before anyone's confirmed the species involved.
At Harbor Pest Control, we identify the insect, locate the nest, and remove it from inside or outside the structure. A beehive established less than 24 hours can usually be treated directly. For anything older, we'll refer you to a trusted local beekeeper.
We offer a 5-day guarantee for qualifying properties, and for ongoing protection from stinging insects, we highly recommend signing up for our General Pest Plan.
Contact Harbor Pest Control if you've spotted a wasp nest on your home or if you’re interested in learning more about our bee and wasp control services in Bonita.
Harbor got its start in Point Loma in 1948, when local teacher Sid Davis ran it as a summer business. John and Kate Morgenroth later expanded it to include marine and quarantine fumigation.
Today, Greg and Mary Augustine own and run it, with Greg licensed in all three California pest control branches plus a Qualified Applicator License in agricultural pest control.
Harbor serves homes and businesses across Bonita and the surrounding Sweetwater Valley, including:
Harbor also services areas beyond Bonita throughout San Diego County. View our full service area or call (888) 586-4816 to check.
Unlock gates, clear a path around the house, and secure pets. If we need to come inside, we'll tell you what to do ahead of time.
Usually, as long as we can get into the yard and reach every area being treated.
We apply products in accordance with the label and state regulations. Just mention children, pets, livestock, or ponds when you call, and we can go over service information.
Leave it for us to see first. Droppings, wings, damaged wood, whatever you found helps identify the pest and where it's concentrated. If you need to clean up sooner, just snap a few photos first.
Just mention it when scheduling. We'll inspect anything accessible on the property and explain what applies.
The pest, how bad it's gotten, your property's size and layout, and how often you want service. Larger lots or specialty treatments change the quote.
Harbor's decades of local experience mean pests get correctly identified and properly treated, the difference between a quick fix and a lasting one.
