Why Universal Pest Management

Local experts who know your home's environment

The Coachella Valley's desert climate creates conditions most pest companies haven't trained for. Our technicians live and work here — they know where scorpions hide in July, why ants invade after the first rain, and how to protect a home that sits empty for months at a time.

  • No long-term contracts — month-to-month service
  • Guaranteed interior protection at no extra cost
  • Same technician every visit, because familiarity matters
  • First service includes full interior and exterior treatment
  • We return free of charge if pests come back

3

Monthly protection, no drama

After your first visit, we maintain a pest barrier around your home each month. Cancel any time, no questions asked.

Starting at $49/month.
First month, no setup fee.

Escrow clients welcome. We'll schedule around your move-in date.

What's included

Monthly protection, built around the desert

Initial interior treatment

We treat inside your home on the first visit — baseboards, entry points, common pest zones. Interior re-treatments always free if needed.

Monthly exterior barrier

We build and maintain a perimeter barrier around your home each month — the front line against desert pests getting inside.

Service guarantee

Pests return between visits? So do we. We come back at no charge and re-treat until the problem is gone.

Your technician, every time

We assign you a dedicated technician who learns your property and shows up consistently — not a random crew each month.

What Valley homeowners say

★★★★★

Trusted by homeowners across Palm Desert, La Quinta, and beyond

M. Sanchez
M. Sanchez Palm Desert
★★★★★

"We signed up right after closing because Universal had already inspected the house for termites. It just made sense. Two years later, we've never had a single issue."

T. Lee
T. Lee La Quinta
★★★★★

"We've worked with the same technician for over a year — he knows our home and always shows up on time. Couldn't ask for better service."

R. Holloway Indian Wells
★★★★★

"Our vacation home sits empty for months at a time. Universal checks on it regularly and the scorpion problem we had when we bought it is completely gone. Worth every penny."

D. Fong Rancho Mirage
★★★★★

"Called on a Tuesday after seeing ants in the kitchen. They were at my door Thursday morning. Fast, professional, and haven't seen an ant since. The monthly plan is a no-brainer."

Common questions

Everything you'd want to know before you book.

Service & Scheduling

How quickly can you treat my home? +
We're typically able to schedule a first visit within 1–2 business days. Call us and we'll usually have you on the calendar the same day.
Do I need to be home for the service? +
For the initial interior treatment, yes — we'll need access inside. After that, your monthly exterior service doesn't require you to be home.
What pests does the monthly plan cover? +
Standard service covers ants, spiders, crickets, roaches, and other common Coachella Valley pests. Scorpion control is included. Termites and specialty treatments are handled separately.

Pricing & Contract

How much does it cost? +
Monthly service starts at $49/month depending on home size and service type. There's no setup fee. We'll confirm exact pricing during your first call.
Is there a contract? +
No contracts. Service is month-to-month and you can cancel any time, no questions asked. We keep clients because the service works, not because of paperwork.

Results & Guarantee

What happens if I still see pests after a visit? +
Call us and we'll come back and re-treat at no charge. That's our guarantee — the problem doesn't stop being our problem just because we left.
What happens after I submit the form? +
We'll call or text you within a few hours to confirm details and get your first service on the calendar. You won't wait long.
