Al and Carole Smith founded Area Wide Exterminators in 1979 in Stockton, California. Their goals were to be self-employed in a service industry that they felt could benefit from their attention to detail and customer service ethics. Al was well respected in the realtor industry and building trades.
He knew he could make a difference in termite control; he had worked in the trade since 1968. In the State of California, two different licenses are required, one for Pest and one for Termite. One slight problem, Carole had a phobia where insects were concerned.

Services
Area Wide Exterminators provides efficient and thorough residential and commercial Pest and Termite Control services. We offer Pest and Termite Control services to both residential and commercial customers. We tailor our services to address the specific problem you are facing and apply the most effective treatment possible.
Rodents are smart & agile creatures that will find a way into your home. Capable of entering an opening as small as the size of a dime, it is extremely difficult to prevent entry. If you are dealing with an invasion, it's time to call in help from an expert team of Pest and Termite Control professionals.
Area Wide offers effective treatments such as inspections, fumigation, as well as ground treatment. AREA WIDE'S custom expert procedures use the latest technologies to deliver the service you deserve. AREA WIDE EXTERMINATORS has more than 40 years in the Pest & TERMITE industry providing an unparalleled quality in both single and multiple Pest and Termite Control services.
Bed bugs are one of the most common and pervasive pests found in homes and businesses in the Central Valley. AWE is well equipped to assess your bed bug problem and develop a strategic response to rid your house of bed bugs. To the untrained eye, rooting out a bed bug infestation can prove difficult, and even if discovered, home remedies and over-the-counter deterrents are often ineffective.
When it comes to commercial Pest and Termite Control, your comfort isn't the only issue on the line. Your guests' perception of your business, as well as their likelihood to become repeat clients, can be jeopardized by the sighting of a single bug. Keeping a clean, attractive and welcoming place of business is the most basic requirement for commercial success.

We have both residential and business services with Area-Wide. Each of these accounts are somewhat complicated due to their respective environments and service conditions. The commercial account may only be serviced on weekends (and now with added CDC covid restrictions and located within an oak grove). The residential service is located where all the other bugs and wild life live! David is the most conscientious and thorough technician we have had (in 20 years of doing business with many other service tecs and their businesses.) He does not take short-cuts and does exactly what we ask, and

I am highly recommending AREA WIDE EXTERMINATORS who I recently switched to when an issue with Mice reoccurred in my home. These guys stand apart from the rest beginning with late hour real human customer service, set up a new account with a scheduled service call at 11pm on a Sunday night. Unheard of, this was followed with Frank, clearly a seasoned tech, who investigated, efficiently devised a service plan, went over details including the equipment & strategic locations placing them. It was apparent he was an expert in his field & left us knowing we were in good hands. Next was a panicked call

They do not disclose that they will be charging your account in advance for their service. They did not come out/schedule several monthly service calls. I had to call them twice to remind them they needed to service my property.
When they did come out and thought no one was home, they serviced our home in about 10 minutes.
We continued to have bugs inside the home and lots of spiders outside.
When we cancelled our service we asked for a refund for the advance charges on our account. After three weeks of no response, no refund, I had to call to get them to process a refund.
PROS:

Recently I had discovered. A place I manage had a rodent problem. Huge rodent problem.It was two weeks of nightmare hell .Rodents had chewed through plumbing and caused major damage and leaks throughout. Realizing that we had a large problem. I contacted Area wide exterminators and a gentleman named Mike called me right back ! We scheduled for an estimate the following day. Exhausted and frustrated from the damage caused by "those dang Rats ". Mike assured me Area wide could assist in removal and handling of my pest problem! Mike knows his rodents! Professional, punctual, well educated, thoughtful
