Pest Control Boston - Exterminator & Wildlife Removal Services since 1984

Homes are being invaded! Cockroaches, ants, termites, fleas and more are setting up camp in apartments and houses throughout Boston, MA right this minute. It may be a quaint New England city, but this metropolis cannot escape the pests and critters common to urban centers.

Any concentration of homes is going to attract insects, bugs, rodents, and other animals. Just as vegetable gardens will attract deer and garbage cans will attract raccoons, city homes will attract rats, termites, carpenter ants, and more. While some common city creatures are not attracted to the seaside life, pest control experts in Boston must be familiar with all pests that enjoy city life.

While suburban areas tend to attract various woodland creatures, a tighter concentration of homes and people will be a magnet for bugs, insects, and rodents. City-based homes, condos, and apartments are regularly infested with carpenter ants, termites, spiders, flies, and more. While the pests may start out as a mere annoyance, it is important to take action before the situation gets out of control.

Some of our excellent services for Boston, MA include:

Squirrel Removal: Squirrels have become particularly adept at living alongside humans. While these particular rodents may look cuter than the average pest they can definitely cause just as much damage as any other if they take up residence in your home. They like to break into attic spaces in houses by finding a small access point, which they will chew to make larger. The team at Colonial Pest Control uses safe, approved, and cutting edge methods to take care of your squirrel infestation.

Bat Removal: If you suspect that you have bats in your house or attic, a certified bat removal and exclusion professional should be called. As bats provide a useful service by controlling insect populations, bat extermination is illegal. Therefore, modern bat removal is a two step process involving removing the bats from the residence in a safe and humane manner and then making sure they can’t get back in.

Termite Control: Since subterranean termites require high moisture levels, they build their colonies in soil but forage away from the colony looking for wood to eat and tunnel in. If you see any signs of the mud shelter tubes on the surface, it is probably time to call a certified termite control service to perform a thorough inspection. Sometimes you will also see termite swarms. At Colonial Pest Control, we use the latest technology to eliminate termites in an environmentally responsible fashion.

Ant Elimination: Carpenter ants present the most common ant problem in New England cities, including Boston. In the spring carpenter ant colonies produce “swarmers” which are the reproductive winged ants. These are often mistaken for termites. If you think you see signs of these creatures, call a professional to take a look. Our professionals are trained to find the nests, and we rely on the Microgen Micro-injector to help us locate, flush and kill the colony.

Bed Bug Control: Traditional Boston pest control involves applying residual insecticide barriers and waiting for the insect to cross the barrier. Unfortunately, today’s bed bugs may be resistant to these methods. Modern treatment techniques and technologies are needed. At Colonial Pest Control, we use new technologies and protocols that really work!

Wasp/Bee Control: This is one service for which most people are not afraid to ask the professionals for help! And for good reason: swarms of stinging insects are not something to be taken lightly. For some people these insects can even have deadly consequences.  A serious allergic reaction can occur and one may go into anaphylactic shock when stung. However, these insects are good for the environment. You should call for professional help if you see a nest that is too close to the house or see swarms of them on a regular basis.

Mice/Rodent Control: Mice and rats can be highly destructive—and spread disease to humans. Rodent control at home means practicing good sanitation inside your home, garage or barn. Even if you are attentive to preventative measures, most homeowners will experience a mouse infestation at one time or another. If rodents do find their way into your home, a certified rodent control and removal service should be called to eliminate the problem before it gets out of hand.
