Lincoln features beautiful sprawling country estates, enchanting summer homes, gorgeous architecture, a thriving commercial scene, and extensive open spaces. With only about 6,000 residents, Lincoln boasts a small town feel and retains close ties to the area’s agricultural roots.

History of Lincoln, Massachusetts

In 1654, Europeans settled in the area now known as Lincoln, and 100 years later, the area was incorporated into a town named after Lincolnshire, England, the birthplace and permanent home of Russell Chambers — one of the area’s earliest and most influential founders. In 1775, history was made when the British captured Paul Revere in Lincoln as he was riding toward Concord to spread the word of their impending attack.

Notable properties and areas of interest in Lincoln include Codman Community Farm and the Codman House, the DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park, Lincoln Center Historic District, and Stonehenge Road. In pop culture, a historic version of the town located in a fictional county appears in the video game “The Last of Us”. Additionally, the band They Might Be Giants named one of their albums “Lincoln” because two of the band’s members grew up there.

Pest Infestations in Lincoln, Massachusetts

Now, the residents of Lincoln aren’t worried about invasions from the British, but they do have to worry about pest invasions. One of the most effective ways to avoid a pest infestation is to take preventative measures. To help you out, Colonial Pest provides preventative pest control to homes and businesses in the area.

If you already have pests in your home, business, or industrial property, you should work with a pest control specialist. Pest control professionals eliminate pests using tried-and-true methods that are safe for your property and its occupants.
