Fortis offers residential pest control in Fig Garden, the established Fresno neighborhood bounded roughly by Shaw, Shields, Fruit, and Blackstone. Our HomeShield plan covers the pests most common to the area's older homes and tree-lined streets, starting at $49 per month with quarterly visits and re-treatment between visits when something new shows up. Coverage includes the full 93704 and 93705 zip codes that span Old Fig Garden.
Fig Garden is one of Fresno's older neighborhoods. The original Forkner-Giffen Fig Garden Estates were laid out in the 1920s, most of the housing stock dates from between 1920 and 1948, and the area is technically an unincorporated CDP surrounded by the City of Fresno. That history shapes the pest pressure here in ways newer Fresno builds don't see.
Older homes mean more entry points: gaps around utility penetrations, settled foundations, and crawlspace access that newer construction has weatherized out. The mature street trees and dense landscaping that make the neighborhood worth living in also create year-round harborage for ants and spiders. From a pest control standpoint, that canopy and that established landscaping are working against you.
Pressure runs year-round, with a visible peak from spring through early fall. Argentine ant trails on kitchen counters, spider activity along eaves, and earwig pressure during irrigation season are the most common Fig Garden complaints we see.
