What the register says about Cardiff Pest Control Inc

Cardiff Pest Control Inc holds company registration no. 174 from the California Structural Pest Control Board (SPCB), Department of Consumer Affairs. Active on the SPCB licensee file dated 1 Aug 2026, with the licence expiry recorded as 31 Dec 2035. The original issue date on file is 1 Jan 1958, so the company registration was about 68 years old at the snapshot.

Its SPCB specialty is recorded as Fumigation-Pest & Termite Control, which covers fumigation (branch 1), pest control (branch 2) and termite control (branch 3). Branch 3 is the termite specialty in California, so this licence covers wood-destroying pest inspections and treatments.

The registered address is 2701 Soquel Avenue, Santa Cruz, CA 95062, in Santa Cruz County. That places it in the Santa Cruz-Watsonville, CA metropolitan area, where the CA register holds 15 licensed operators, 7 of them (47%) with the termite category.

The nearest other licensed operators on this register are 4 Less Termite Inc (0.4 mi), Santa Cruz Property Inspections (1.7 mi) and Xterminatrix (4.7 mi); 5 sit within 50 miles. 3 of those neighbours hold the termite category.

For price context, our California cost sheet puts liquid termite treatment at $2,000 to $3,800, bait systems at $2,400 to $4,500 and tent fumigation at $4,000 to $9,000 statewide; the Bay Area / SF / Oakland row runs $2,400-$4,000 liquid, $2,800-$4,600 bait and $5,400-$9,200 tent.

Status is shown exactly as the regulator reported it on the snapshot date and is not a statement about today. Registers change with every renewal cycle; the regulator's own search is the only current source. Business records only: individual applicators, technicians and field representatives are never listed here.

This register extract is an independent consumer guide, not a referral service and not an endorsement of any operator. We are not a pest control company and receive nothing from the businesses listed. Verify licence status with the regulator before signing a contract or paying a deposit.
