Fortis offers residential pest control in the Tower District, one of Fresno's historic, walkable neighborhoods. Our HomeShield plan covers the pests that come with the area's older homes and its busy dining corridor, starting at $49 per month with quarterly visits. Re-service between visits is included, so if something shows up before your next treatment, we come back at no extra charge. Coverage spans the 93728 zip code.
The Tower District is one of Fresno's older, denser neighborhoods, built up around the landmark Tower Theatre. Most of the housing stock dates from the 1920s through the 1940s, a mix of bungalows and craftsman homes. That age is the single biggest factor in local pest pressure.
Older homes mean more ways in. Settled foundations, unsealed crawlspaces, and gaps around aging plumbing and utility penetrations give pests entry points that newer, weatherized construction has closed off. Perimeter inspection matters more here than it does in the suburbs, and our quarterly visits are built around the entry points specific to homes from this era.
The neighborhood's character adds two more pressures. The walkable arts and dining scene around the Tower Theatre brings food waste, dumpsters, and grease that feed cockroach and rodent activity for blocks around. And the mature street trees and dense, established landscaping that make the area worth living in also give ants and spiders year-round harborage right up against exterior walls.
