We at Fox Pest Control are proud to be a part of Waukegan. We believe in being a part of the communities in which we live and work, and we are always looking for ways to be more connected to the greater Chicago area. Emilio D. is the local Fox Service Manager. Like Fox Pest Control, Emilio has a deep connection with the area. He lives nearby. He understands what homeowners are up against when it comes to Waukegan pest control. Emilio says he likes to meet the Fox tech team at Louie’s Restaurant on North Ave. “It’s a great place to grab lunch and compare notes on fighting bugs in Waukegan,” says Emilio. “Been going to this place for a long time. The breadsticks, ravioli, and lasagna are unbeatable,” he says. But when it comes to family time in Waukegan, Emilio takes the kiddos to the Waukegan Municipal Beach right on Lake Michigan. “It is relaxing there. We love hanging out by the water.”
Juan, the lead technician at our Chicago branch, also enjoys working in Waukegan. He says the barbecue in the city is some of the best in the area! One of his favorite stops is Hillery’s Bar BQ on Lewis Ave. Everything on the menu is great, and his personal favorite is the spectacular Rib Tips. When not on the clock, Juan enjoys the great hiking in the area and spending time at Waukegan Beach. He recommends that anyone driving through Waukegan needs to head up to Wadsworth and check out the Gold Pyramid House, a 5 story pyramid and event center styled after the Giza Pyramids in Egypt. Our team is connected to the Waukegan community, and it shows in the dedicated work they provide to our customers.

Signs of a Pest Infestation
You might already know you have a pest problem. But here are a couple of the most common signs a pest control extermination look for in Glen Ellyn Area.

Most ants are harmless.
But some, like fire ants, bite and sting.
Other types of ants build huge mounds that can tear up your lawn.
