How Philo Pest Control works
Philo Pest Control is set up to get a caller in Philo to a technician who understands country houses, long drives and the difference between the coast and the valley.
Most calls come from a few places: a yellowjacket nest by the back door in warm weather, a rat in the woodpile, a mud tube on the sill. The line takes those calls at any hour and passes on what has already been seen.
Your treatment runs on another company's licence
Work at a Philo address is carried out by an independent, licensed local pest control company — the nearest one available to this corner of Mendocino County. Philo Pest Control runs the line, takes down what you are seeing and hands the job across. Nobody here crawls under a house or applies a product.
That division matters for the paperwork. Structural pest control in California is licensed by the Structural Pest Control Board, and the company on your job is the one that must be registered with the Board, with its people working under Applicator, Field Representative or Operator licences in the branches the job covers. Wood-damage repair is generally contracted by a Branch 3 operator. Keeping that current, keeping its own insurance in force, and answering to the Board are its obligations — none of it is a vetting exercise this site has performed on your behalf.
Put the question whenever it suits you: (855) 974-4733 is answered around the clock, or ask the technician who calls back to arrange the visit. We keep the number off these pages out of respect for a private company's records. Then check it yourself at pestboard.ca.gov, which is where the Board publishes what it licenses.
Ask for the licence number on the phone, then check it with the Board (855) 974-4733
