Current Pest Advisory for Sparr Heights (June 2026)
This June’s hot, dry weather—with temperatures consistently in the 80s–90s and minimal rainfall—is driving two pests into Sparr Heights homes: Argentine ants and roof rats. The ants are swarming now because the drought-like conditions are drying out their natural moisture sources in the Verdugo Mountains foothills, pushing them toward the damp zones created by irrigation runoff along foundations of your mid-century homes, especially near the Sparr Heights Community Center and parkland. Roof rats are equally active this month, drawn by the abundant acorn drop from mature oaks on tree-lined streets like those off Glen Oaks Boulevard; the rats use these acorns as a food source and then seek shelter in the raised foundations and crawlspaces common in your 1940s–1960s houses. Look for ant trails along foundation edges, irrigation lines, and under mulch near your home’s perimeter, and for roof rats, check for droppings in attics, gnaw marks on eaves, or rustling sounds in crawlspaces after dusk—especially where large tree branches overhang roofs. Below are the top-rated Glendale exterminators who specialize in these specific seasonal threats.
