What we see here
Lawns, citrus and rentals
Much of Northridge is mid-century ranch housing on flat, generous lots: irrigated lawns, backyard citrus and avocado, attached garages and wood-framed attics. Roof rats feed on the fruit and travel trees and utility lines into attics and garages, gophers work the lawns and gardens, and drywood termites have had decades to find their way into eaves and patio covers.
Around the university the housing shifts toward rentals and small apartment buildings with frequent turnover. That is where German roaches and bed bugs arrive with furniture and belongings, and where treatment between tenants and documented findings for owners make the biggest difference.

Common questions
Asked by Northridge callers
Argentine ants in summer, roof rats in backyard fruit trees and attics, gophers in lawns, and drywood termites in the attics and eaves of post-war homes. Rentals near the university add German roaches and bed bugs.
Yes. Rentals with frequent turnover benefit most from treatment between tenants and from documented findings when roaches or bed bugs come in. Building programs cover multi-unit properties.
Flat lots with irrigated lawns and gardens give gophers soft soil and steady food. Trapping in the active tunnel ends it, and wire baskets protect new plantings.
Yes. Many homes date from the 1950s and 1960s, with attics, eaves and patio covers that drywood termites colonize over time. An annual inspection catches activity while it is still a spot-treatment job.
It pushes them toward shade. Roof rats move into garages and attics during hot spells and feed on backyard citrus, so picking fruit promptly and sealing rooflines both matter.
Yes, including 91324 and 91325, from the neighborhoods around the university to the streets near Porter Ranch and Granada Hills.
