Pest control in Worcester County

Reservoir country — and everything that breeds in it

The Blackstone Valley, Lake Quinsigamond and the Wachusett watershed put most Worcester County yards within a short flight of standing water and within a few feet of tick habitat. It starts earlier in the year than most homeowners expect.

• Ponds and wetlands on every sideWatershed and conservation land isn't ours to treat — but the shaded foliage on your side of the line is where mosquitoes rest through the day, and that's the part a barrier treatment handles.
• Blacklegged ticks established county-wideWorcester County reports Lyme disease, anaplasmosis and babesiosis every season. Yards backing onto conservation land or an old stone wall need the wooded edge treated — not the middle of the lawn.
• Mill-era housing stock, endless web anchorsDeep eaves, fieldstone foundations and additions built across a century give spiders far more to anchor to than a modern build. We de-web and treat the exterior so the porch stays usable.
