Bed bugs are travelers, not a sign of a dirty house. They get carried in on luggage, used mattresses, thrift store couches, moving boxes and the clothes of anyone who slept somewhere that had them.
Marysville is the Yuba County seat and one of the oldest cities in California, incorporated in 1851. The 2020 Census counted 12,844 people in about 3.6 square miles, wedged between the Feather and Yuba rivers and ringed by levees that have kept the city from spreading. Census figures show only about 37% of homes are owner occupied, and roughly 1 in 6 residents moved in during the prior year. With that many renters and moves, used furniture and boxes cross Marysville doorways all year.
Visitors arrive too. The Bok Kai Parade, held each year since 1880 and billed as the oldest continuous parade in California, brings crowds downtown near the Bok Kai Temple, and Highways 70 and 20 carry steady traffic through town.
A Renter Majority Inside the Levees
Close to 2 in 3 Marysville households rent, which is unusual for a California county seat. Because the levee ring leaves little room for new building, many of those rentals are in older apartment houses, divided homes and small complexes where several units share walls, pipes and attic space. A problem in one unit can reach a neighbor's through outlets and baseboard gaps.
- Check a new rental's mattress, bed frame and couch seams on move-in day, before unpacking.
- If bugs show up, report it to the property manager in writing and ask that the units on either side be checked too.
- Never take a curbside mattress or couch home, even a clean-looking one, since used beds are a common source.
Rural Loma Rica and Foothill Parcels
Loma Rica, about 15 miles northeast of town, shares the 95901 ZIP but is fully rural, with about 2,400 residents spread across foothill land. Homes on bigger parcels often have a travel trailer, a second dwelling or a bunk room for visiting family. Bugs can move between these buildings on bedding and bags.
- Ask us to look at every building on the property where someone sleeps.
- Give clear driving directions and gate codes, and confirm any trip charge before the visit.

Marysville Bed Bug FAQ
Does the Marysville ZIP also cover Linda and Loma Rica?
Yes. ZIP 95901 is shared by the city of Marysville and two county communities with no city government of their own, Linda to the south and Loma Rica in the foothills to the northeast. Homes in all three can request a free quote. Give the street address and mention which community you live in so our crew plans the right route.
Is Beale Air Force Base part of the Marysville service area?
Beale has its own ZIP code, 95903, and its own page on our site. On-base housing issues go through the base housing office. Off-base renters and homeowners in 95901 can request a quote here.
I rent an older apartment near downtown and just found bugs. What do I do first?
Tell your landlord in writing and keep a dated copy. Under California law a landlord cannot knowingly rent out a unit with bed bugs, and once a licensed operator inspects, the findings must reach affected tenants within 2 business days. Do not move to another room or spray anything before the inspection.
How much does bed bug treatment cost in Marysville?
It depends on how many rooms are involved and which method fits. Using Angi's 2026 US averages, expect roughly $200 to $400 per treated room, and $1,500 to $6,200 for a full house. Our written quote after inspecting your Marysville home is the number that counts.
Will a fogger knock the problem down until help arrives?
Usually not. Foggers rarely reach the cracks where bed bugs rest and can push them into walls or the next room. Leave the bed as it is, wash bedding on hot and wait for the inspection.
