Rancho Cucamonga requires licensed operators for commercial pest control and prohibits rodent harborage. Fumigations must be registered with San Bernardino County under state law.
Pest control activities in Rancho Cucamonga are regulated by California Business and Professions Code Division 3 Chapter 14, which requires that all commercial pest control operators hold a valid license from the California Structural Pest Control Board. Municipal Code Title 8 addresses nuisance conditions that harbor rodents, roaches, and other vermin, authorizing Code Enforcement to issue notices to abate when properties show evidence of infestation or harborage conditions such as accumulated debris, stagnant water, or overgrown vegetation. Structural fumigations using sulfuryl fluoride or methyl bromide must be registered 48 hours in advance with the San Bernardino County Agricultural Commissioner, and applicators must post warning placards per Title 3 California Code of Regulations Section 6618. Rodent bait stations must be tamper-resistant and labeled per EPA regulations.
