About Pinpoint Pest Control

From Our Family to Yours

Pinpoint Pest Control is a third-generation family-owned business. Bill Tanksley started in the pest control industry in 1971 as a route technician and worked his way to upper management by the 1990s. He and his son, Steve, purchased Pinpoint Pest Control in the mid-90s and have worked together to bring customer-focused, high-quality pest control solutions to North San Diego County. 

Bill retired in 2015 and Steve is now operating our business with the help of his two oldest sons. As an Associate Certified Entomologist, Steve carries multiple pest control licenses and has been published in scientific journals and industry magazines. This in-depth knowledge and decades of professional experience inform every step we take to protect you, your family, your employees, and anyone visiting your home or business from the possible negative effects of a pest infestation. 

From our family to yours, Pinpoint Pest Control is here to serve! Call (760) 350-3977 or contact our team online to schedule your free estimate.

      Comprehensive Integrated Pest Management Strategies

      Integrated pest management (IPM) is an effective mode of pest control that uses various techniques to promote long-term pest management. This comprehensive approach includes:

      • Thorough inspections to identify the species, source of the infestation, and other pertinent information 
      • Preventative exclusion and sanitation, when appropriate
      • Biological controls, if they are safe and workable 
      • Using natural resources or "low Impact" materials when possible or when pesticides are needed

      Our founder is a nationally recognized IPM and honeybee removal instructor with deep knowledge of how these practices can help protect your home, business, or industrial property. Our goal is to treat current infestations and then use thorough preventative measures to keep pests from returning. 

      Additionally, we offer regular maintenance programs for your complete peace of mind. Designed to address the specific pests that plague North San Diego County and tailored to your property’s needs, these plans provide a tailored approach to help minimize the chance of re-infestation.
